New York Gov. Kathy Hochul was ripped by Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis for suggesting at a rally earlier this month that Empire State conservatives should take a hike. DeSantis said at an unrelated press conference: “You have the governor of New York saying all Republicans need to get on a bus and leave the state and come to Florida.” “Who would say something so ridiculous? To say if you don’t agree with me then you don’t even have a right to be here,” he added. Hochul sparked controversy by saying political opponents like Republican gubernatorial nominee Rep. Lee Zeldin ought…
Catholic mass was canceled at the NY State fair and shall return. The New York State Fair will be returning the traditional Roman Catholic Mass after what the fair’s interim director admitted was a “hiccup” that led to its previous cancellation.

But after the parish that holds it was told by a fair official earlier in the year that it “could not be accommodated,” the Mass did not happen. Rev. Joseph Clemente at St. Marianne Cope Church in Solvay was reached out by interim 2022 Fair…

Biden said to the crowd at Wilkes University in Wilkes Barre, Pennsylvania: “Folks, do me a favor. Presumptuous of me to say that, but think about doing me a favor…. Please, please elect the Attorney General to the Senate. Elect that big ol’ boy to be governor,” Biden said. Although Shapiro, the state attorney general, and Fetterman, the lieutenant governor, were intended to be endorsed by Biden for governor and senator respectively,…

President Biden was criticized by John Avlon, CNN’s senior political analyst, for calling the Republican Party “semi-fascist.” This criticism comes as CNN executives allegedly pressure the network’s hosts to concentrate on unbiased news reporting. “The term semi-fascist is not helpful,” Avlon said on CNN’s “New Day.” “It’s not befitting the office of president.” “You can absolutely call out the dangers to our democracy, but it makes obviously perfect sense for someone like Sen. Hassan, because look, in New Hampshire, more than 40% of registered voters are independent,” Avlon noted. “Another 30-and-change are Republicans. Democrats are the third category among registered…

Trump’s Truth Social is facing an obstacle. The app wasn’t approved by Google and is not available on the Google Play Store. According to Google, the Truth Social app does not have any effective means for moderating user-generated content. This is seen as a violation of the store’s terms of service. Truth Social was promoted by former President Donald Trump as a “free-speech” alternative to Twitter sometime after he was banned from the platform due to his tweets relating to the Jan. 6 Capitol riot. In an attempt to block Congress from confirming Joe Biden’s victory in the 2020 presidential…

Bill Barr, an ex-attorney general, blasted some conservatives for “pandering to outrage” following the dramatic FBI raid on ex-president Donald Trump’s Mar-a-Lago home. Barr further explained why he made that statement. Barr praised how the Department of Justice (DOJ) handled the raid in an episode of the “Honestly” podcast hosted by journalist Bari Weiss. However, he acknowledged that the politically motivated examination into Russian interference in the 2016 campaign for President Trump harmed people’s faith in federal law enforcement and “created the condition” for people to assume “the worst.” “So what do you say to conservatives who say, ‘Why should…
The lead pastor at the Village Church in Flower Mound, Tex., Matt Chandler, appeared to fight back tears as he told his congregation that he was taking a leave of absence. This was a move prompted by what his church’s leaders saw as inappropriate messages between him and a woman who is not his wife. Chandler explained that the leaders determined that the messages were not “romantic or s-xual.” “It was that our conversations were unguarded and unwise,” he said. About the nature of the messages, church officials went into scant detail with Chandler. Both his wife and the husband…
