Grace Curley is a special guest host on today's A-team panel conversation. The Save America Act is the most important issue of our time. Attorney General Ken Paxton called out flip-flopping Senator Cornyn for his sudden switch to nuke the filibuster. The Save America Act requires ID to register to vote, opposed to showing ID when you actually go and vote. Is this the legislation that has an 83% approval rating? Democrats want no restrictions on voting whatsoever so its at least a move in the right direction. The Correction News Network (CNN) is blatantly releasing misleading stories and getting forced to apologize when the internet revolts against nearly everything they do. NYC Mayor helped provoke the misleading headlines when he called the two ISIS inspired would be terrorist "white supremacist." He then went on to hold a Muslim prayer session in City Hall followed by dining on the floor. Jill Biden has a new book, does anyone care? Will she expose Kamala behind doors? TMZ tried to start a Lobstergate uproar after Secretary Hegseth fed the troops lobster, crab and steak before battle. It was another non-stop week, unless you're stuck at an airport... PLUS this week's winners and losers.

On this explosive episode of The Dominic Carter Show, Dominic sounds off on the heroic NYPD cops who leaped into action to thwart an ISIS-inspired bomb plot orchestrated by two teens.

The phone lines heat up as Dominic calls out his Instagram trolls, and takes on a notorious Trump-hating caller named Dave who gets swiftly introduced to "Mr. Click". Plus, Dominic unpacks Dr. Phil's harsh critique of the Mayor's wife and her controversial social media activity. Buckle up for a raw, unfiltered night of New York talk radio!

During dueling protests outside Gracie Mansion — the official residence of New York City Mayor Zohran Mamdani — two Pennsylvania men allegedly threw improvised explosive devices toward an anti-Islam rally led by far-right activist Jake Lang. The devices, homemade bombs containing TATP explosives and shrapnel such as nuts, bolts, and screws, were ignited but failed to fully detonate, causing no injuries despite their lethal potential. The incident escalated from a small far-right demonstration against an alleged "Islamic takeover" into clashes with counterprotesters, leading to multiple arrests, including the two suspects. Federal authorities charged the men with terrorism-related offenses, including providing material support to ISIS, after they reportedly cited inspiration from the Islamic State group, and one expressed intent to surpass the impact of the Boston Marathon bombing.

Did NYC Mayor Zohran Mamdani just cancel the plan to hire 5,000 new NYPD officers? In this episode of The Finest Unfiltered, we break down the reported decision to halt the proposed NYPD hiring expansion and what it means for New York City's public safety, crime response, police staffing levels, and overtime costs. With the NYPD already facing recruitment challenges, attrition, and below-authorized headcount in multiple precincts, canceling 5,000 new hires could have major operational consequences. Is this a budget decision, a political statement, or part of a broader shift in NYC policing policy? We cover: • The original 5,000 officer hiring proposal • Current NYPD staffing numbers vs. historical levels • Crime trends in NYC • Budget allocations and competing city priorities • How this impacts response times, proactive policing, and specialized units • The long-term effect on recruitment and retention New York City is home to over 8 million people. Decisions about NYPD hiring directly impact safety, patrol strength, and the future of law enforcement in NYC. ️ New to streaming or looking to level up?

NYC Mayor Zohran Mamdani announced his brand new $127 Billion dollar annual budget, it was nice knowing you New York.......Mayor Zohran Mamdani unveiled a record $127 billion budget Tuesday — with an ultimatum to Albany to tax the rich or he'll slap the Big Apple with a massive property tax hike.The democratic socialist framed his proposal — which would also include pulling from the city's $10 billion rainy day fund — as a “last resort” to balance the budget if Gov. Kathy Hochul doesn't agree to increase taxes on millionaires. “I do not want to raise property taxes,” Mamdani said of his preliminary budget plan, which would hike property taxes 9.5% to raise an additional $3.7 billion in the next fiscal year.“When faced with this crisis, the question is who should pay these taxes? I believe that it should be the wealthiest New Yorkers, the most profitable corporations. I believe that they can afford to pay a little bit more,” Mamdani said.See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.
New York City's Democratic socialist mayor Zohran Mamdani is threatening a 9.5% property tax increase and 5k officer reduction in the New York City Police Department's ranks if state lawmakers do not raise taxes on wealthy residents and corporations. The Mayor says the increase in taxes would address city's $5.4 billion budget deficit. New York Gov. Kathy Hochul opposes raising property taxes and completely rejects the idea of raising income taxes, said the state would give the city an additional $1.5 billion in funding. FOX's Eben Brown speaks with Pierre Debbas, partner and founding member of the 'Romer Debbas' LLP, who says finding budget cuts rather than raising taxes is the route that should be taken because the middle-class will suffer.

Always feisty. Always blunt. The Catholic League's president, Bill Donohue, is not terribly fond of New York City's new Mayor, Zohran Mamdani. And it's not because Mayor Mamdani is Muslim. He doesn't care about that. What he cares about is the observation that Mamdani has excluded traditional religious practices, specifically, Judeo-Christian heritage. On this episode of the Lighthouse Faith podcast, Donohue unleashes a laundry list of complaints he's logged that prove his points. He also has some words for the state of Catholic higher education and how he believes they're moving from traditional Christian values to adopt a more secular agenda. Believe him or not, Bill Donohue always does his homework and has the facts to back up his claims. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit podcastchoices.com/adchoices
On this episode of the podcast, Amanda Head is joined by Nicole Huyer, The Heritage Foundation's Senior Research Associate for Economic Policy. The two break down the radical policy agenda being floated by New York City Mayor Zohran Mamdani, and why it should concern Americans far beyond The Big Apple.Huyer explains why Mamdani's proposal for government-run grocery stores mirrors failed experiments in places like Erie, Kansas and Baldwin, Florida, leading not to affordability, but shortages, inefficiencies, and higher costs for taxpayers. She also unpacks the potential fallout of his proposed corporate tax hike to 11.5% and a new 2% penalty tax on high earners — policies that could accelerate the flight of businesses and capital out of the city.You can follow this podcast, Amanda Head, and Nicole Huyer on X by searching for the respective handles: @FurthermorePod, @AmandaHead, @NicoleHuyer.See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.
In part one of Red Eye Radio with Gary McNamara and Eric Harley, lefty pop star Billie Eilish is facing calls to hand over her ritzy Los Angeles digs to a Native American tribe or illegal immigrant after she declared “No one is illegal on stolen land” at the 68th Annual Grammy Awards ceremony.

Wall Street’s booming year will not be enough to stave off a financial crisis that Mayor Zohran Mamdani says is worse than the Great Recession nearly two decades ago. “Wall Street’s announcement is something that is very encouraging and frankly will be helpful in dealing with a $12 billion fiscal deficit,” Mamdani said in an interview on Bloomberg Television’s Balance of Power on Thursday. But it might not be enough. “The reason I cannot point to Wall Street and say the deficit will be taken care of is simply the sheer scale of this deficit. We are talking about something that is larger frankly than what the city even faced during the Great Recession.” He discusses his push to hike taxes to fill budget gaps, how his city dealt with recent severe cold and more with Bloomberg's Myles Miller.

New York City Mayor Zohran Mamdani talks with Jen Psaki about the need to hold ICE agents, including the one who shot and killed Minneapolis mother Renee Good, to the same justice as everyone else in America. Mamdani also highlights a new universal childcare initiative in New York, proving that government can still work for good outcomes and doesn't have to be all terror and chaos like the Trump administration produces.Pennsylvania Governor Josh Shapiro talks with Jen Psaki about how a well run government coordinates at all levels, from federal to local, instead of the havoc and terror Donald Trump's federal agents are committing while gaslighting communities and making people less safe. Shapiro criticizes JD Vance for being the embodiment of the "chaos, cruelty and corruption" that defines the Trump administration.

Welcome to The Times of Israel's Daily Briefing, your 20-minute audio update on what's happening in Israel, the Middle East and the Jewish world. NY correspondent Luke Tress joins host Amanda Borschel-Dan for today's episode. New York City Mayor-elect Zohran Mamdani is set to become the city's leader at midnight as the apple falls in Times Square. According to a report from the Anti-Defamation League, at least 20 percent of Mamdani’s 400 administrative appointees are connected to anti-Zionist US activist groups, such as Students for Justice in Palestine. Tress zooms into the case of Catherine Almonte Da Costa, who was initially named as his administration’s director of appointments. Tress delves into which of Mamdani’s policies are particularly worrisome for NY Jews, including security, schools and the annual Israel parade. In the second half, we focus on the new Movement Against Antizionism (MAAZ) and how it sees itself as a new way of framing hatred against Jews. Scholar Adam Louis-Klein and MAAZ are part of a network of academics and activists pushing the Jewish community to focus on anti-Zionism as a distinct hatred, with its own ideology and tactics, moving on from the antisemitism paradigm as a framework for understanding discrimination against Jews. We debate whether this is needed even as it grows in traction in the US. Check out The Times of Israel's ongoing liveblog for more updates.
