    President Joe Biden and First Lady Jill Biden appeared in a recorded message that was as notable for the usual malarkey about the economy spewed by the geriatric Democrat as it was for his wife’s bizarre attire. In their interview with Ryan Seacrest that aired on ABC’s annual edition of “Dick Clark’s New Year’s Rockin’ Eve” from Times Square, the couple engaged in the usual gaslighting about the miracles of “Bidenomics” in their message to Americans to kick off the new year, one in which Americans will get their first chance for a referendum on the regime’s disastrous policies in...

    As 2023 comes to an end, President Joe Biden enters his last year (hopefully forever) in office. Biden was less than stellar at his job as president of the free world. He drove the United States to hell and back while lying to Americans about almost his entire agenda. As thousands of people begin to line up in New York City’s Times Square to watch the annual ball drop, large billboards will appear, reminding them of Biden’s failed policies. Job Creators Network’s (JCN) latest billboard in Times Square will demand Biden abandon its radical Left-wing policies on the southern border,...

    The New York City Police Department is ramping up security for the New Year's Eve ball drop in Times Square over fears Pro-Palestine protestors are set to disrupt it. It is deploying thousands of officers to the area and could use a combination of robots, drones and detection dogs to prevent any interruption to the event, which annually attracts an estimated one million people. Mayor Eric Adams said he is 'sure' Pro-Palestine protestors will try to cause disruption at the famous New Year's Eve ball drop. 'We’re sure there’s gonna be some type of attempt this year,' he said at...

    Would you pay $650 for a table at Applebee’s in Times Square to watch the ball drop? Apparently many New Year’s Eve revelers are willing to fork over just that and even more — including $12,500 for a luxury couples package at the Marriott Marquis — to ring in 2024, according to events entrepreneur Joshua Perla. Perla, founder of events sites BallDrop.com and NewYears.com, said business has been brisk for the 30 different Times Square packages. “We are seeing an uptick in the price consumers are spending on New Year’s Eve tickets that include a live view of the ball...

    The FBI and two other federal agencies issued a public safety warning on Dec. 12, highlighting potential threats to the U.S. during the upcoming Christmas and New Year's holidays. The bureau, along with the Department of Homeland Security (DHS) and National Counterterrorism Center, cited the ongoing Israel–Hamas war as a potential trigger for attacks. However, the agencies didn't point to any specific plot. “FBI and DHS assess that ongoing tensions related to the conflict between Israel and Hamas likely heighten the threat of lone actor violence targeting large public gatherings throughout the winter, including holiday-related, faith-based, New Year’s Eve, and...

    This was CNN cognitive dissonance on steroids -- with a booster shot of hypocrisy. Picture this. In its 7 am hour, New Day brought on CNN medical analyst Dr. Jonathan Reiner who called the Times Square New Year's Eve celebration a potential "superspreader" event that is "completely unnecessary" and "unwise." Reiner called omicron "the most contagious pathogen that any of us have ever seen," estimating the true number of daily infections at one million.But the very next hour of New Day contained a long, hyper-excited, promo for . . . CNN's Times Square New Year's Eve special! CNN entertainment correspondent...

    Dr. Anthony Fauci told CNN on Monday Americans should stay away from large gatherings for New Year's Eve even if people are fully vaccinated with boosters because they would not know if others are fully vaccinated for COVID-19. "I do wonder we are approaching New Year’s Eve at the end of this week, a lot of people have got events and gatherings planned, and I know you said it’s OK to be with friends and family if you’re vaccinated and boosted, but what is your advice to people about larger settings for New Year’s parties?" CNN's Kaitlan Collins asked. "Kaitlan,...

    Police attempting to shut down an underground, curfew-busting New Year’s Eve party that drew at least 2,500 people in western France were attacked by ravers who torched one police vehicle and injured officers with volleys of bottles and stones. Hundreds of vehicles started converging on a hangar in Lieuron, Brittany, on Thursday night to party into the new year, the regional government said on Friday. It said police were attacked when they tried to stop ravers from installing their party gear. On Friday morning, 2,500 ravers from France and abroad were still partying, circled by a reinforced police presence, the...

    New Jersey Gov. Phil Murphy (D) urged residents on Monday to refrain from ringing in the new year with individuals outside of their household, pressing New Jerseyans to reduce celebrations and strictly adhere to coronavirus protocols, including masking up and practicing social distancing. “IMPORTANT: This New Year’s Eve, we urge you to keep to a small gathering of only your immediate household,” Murphy began, stating that the new year should begin with residents “staying vigilant” regarding the Chinese coronavirus by practicing social distancing, masking up, and handwashing:

The incident came after Houston authorities had warned locals not to fire their guns during New Year’s celebrations. Another man was also shot in the wrist just after midnight in Houston by celebratory gunfire, while he was...

    Pittsburgh’s Public Safety Department is preparing for a New Years Eve display that only they will see: The annual lighting up of the ShotSpotter system. The system, which covers 18 square miles of Pittsburgh -- around ⅓ of the city -- uses powerful microphones to detect and locate gunshots, and occasionally misreads fireworks as a firearms discharge. On New Years Eve, according to city Public Safety Director Wendell Hissrich, the system’s display “lights up like a Christmas tree” as people fire guns or fireworks into the air. He said the system picked up dozens of gunshots in the minutes leading...

    Viewers slammed NBC’s New Years Eve coverage as a train-wreck and embarrassment for America. NBC’s New Years Eve show didn’t have a countdown clock nor did they show the ball drop — a tradition many Americans enjoy watching. Rather, Chrissy Teigen, who was one of the three hosts for NBC’s NYE coverage discussed ‘vaginal steaming,’ — and NBC even showed a picture of it! GROSS! Viewers were disgusted and disappointed — especially because children were watching. Chrissy Teigen’s co-host Leslie Jones then hit her in the eye with her umbrella at midnight. What a train-wreck!
