    ABC’s The View led Friday’s show with news about the manhunt for the mass shooting suspect in Maine, but quickly turned to statements that have been made by elected officials. And then co-host Joy Behar turned to the greatest inspiration of some of those elected officials, who publicly disagreed with them — former President Ronald Reagan. After showing a clip of Speaker Mike Johnson (R-LA) stating that mass shootings are a problem of “the human heart” and “not guns,” the audience booed before Behar went back to “Saint Ronald Reagan,” the former Republican president who remains one of the greatest...

    This week, a superintendent of a Massachusetts school district sent an email to their staff that included links to left-wing resources arguing that “Israeli terrorism has been significantly worse than that of the Palestinians.” According to parental rights organization Parents Defending Education, the email sent from the superintendent of Revere Public Schools was to alert parents of “the investigation currently underway regarding racist and anti-Semitic graffiti” on school grounds. The email included links to “teaching resources” about the conflict. “Learning for Justice has provided the teaching resources at this link which is specific to the Israeli and Palestinian fighting,” the...

    The city of Revere gave Donald Trump his largest margin of victory in Massachusetts' March 1 Republican primary. "I hate to say that I grew up not liking people. I mean, I like Americans. I just despise other people right now, non-Americans," said Anthony Paolini, 55, a disabled construction worker. "Just the way they act, they're taking over all the jobs. You can't even get a job. My niece went to school five years, she's working at McDonald's." "I just believe that (Donald) Trump can change this country," Paolini said. "He talks from the heart. He's got balls." Paolini is...

    (MyFoxBoston.com) -- A local high school cheerleading captain was disciplined after she sent out a tweet about illegal immigrants. She says it was a political statement, not a racial one! FOX25 spoke with the teen who says she was taking a page from Donald Trump. Caley Godino is a senior at Revere High School and she says part of their homework is to watch these presidential debates and her tweet was simply about a hot button issue in the headlines. "When only 10 percent of Revere votes for mayor cause the other 90 percent isn't legal," Godino said in the...

    When Caley Godino pressed the button to Tweet out a message about low voter turnout in the Revere City Election and how it relates to people who are not here legally, she had no idea it would lead to threats of physical harm, cyber-bullying and, allegedly, getting kicked off the cheerleading team during her senior year. But that’s exactly what happened, said Godino and her family, including her mother Lauren Kelly, and they said they are trying to sort out why it is that Godino was punished for her comment, and others were not punished for the threats. “They just...

    The head cheerleader at one Massachusetts high school has been banned from cheering for the rest of the season after she tweeted an offensive comment about immigrants. Caley Godino, a senior at Revere High School in Revere, Massachusetts, was asked to watch the political debates leading up to the 2016 presidential election. Her teacher tweeted a comment about the low voter turnout for November's mayoral race, which prompted Caley to post a controversial tweet. "When only 10 percent of Revere votes for mayor cause the other 90 percent isn't legal," she reportedly tweeted. (Her profile is private.) As of 2010,...

    It was a peaceful Mother’s Day at Revere Beach this past Sunday at 6 p.m.. Waves lapped against the sand, and the sun shone down on the North Shore families who’d come out to celebrate the warm May day. Fast forward fifteen minutes, and over 100 people were brawling on the shore, according to police. First two women started fighting. Then their boyfriends’ friends joined in. And it grew from there, Revere Mayor Dan Rizzo told NECN. Soon enough, Revere Beach was so chaotic that officers from multiple departments had trouble pushing through to break it up. “It’s very...

    Millions of students in public schools don’t understand fractions or pronouns at even a basic level but students in the oceanfront Boston suburb of Revere, Mass. are taking the time to learn all about Islam — in the most embarrassingly shallow and cheerleading way imaginable. Part of the textbook prints the Muslim Call to Prayer, according to Boston NBC affiliate WHDH. “I bear witness that there is no God but Allah,” it says. The textbook portion also reverently celebrates Muhammad’s life. “Muhammad never expected to change world,” the admiring, rah-rah textbook reads. “Muhammad later tended sheep on the dry hills...

    Boston police and a cadre of federal officials descended on an Ocean Avenue apartment complex in Revere last night. In addition to two Boston Police K-9 units and a bomb squad unit, a large contingent of federal agents from the FBI, Immigration and Customs Enforcement, as well as Homeland Security investigations and state police had assembled at the two buildings. It was unclear whether the search was connected to the Boston Marathon bombings. Tight-lipped agents said nothing to assembled media. Worried building residents said they were left in the dark. Marcus Worthington, 24, a building resident said no one has...

    Deep into the evening of April 18, 1775, Paul Revere gave the word to send the signal by lantern from the steeple of the North Church, then slipped quietly across the Charles River in a row boat, defying a ban on nighttime crossings. Landing in Charlestown, he mounted a horse and rode toward Lexington and then Concord, warning every household possible that the regulars were coming out. As he spread the word, other riders also mounted up and fanned out, telling the countryside that the British troops known as “the regulars” were on their way to seize liberty from the...

    The Shot heard around the World! This phrase has come to represent the beginning of many historical events - like the American Revolution (1775 - 1783). And its genesis can be traced to Ralph Waldo Emerson's Concord Hymn - "Here once the embattled farmers stood, And fired the shot heard round the world ..." Emerson words immortalized the American Minutemen resistance to the British forces back in 1775, as the British were on a mission to seize and destroy the American militia ammunition and weapons. Emerson's poem marks the Battle of Lexington and Concord (April 19, 1775), the start of...
