Defiant Marjorie Taylor Greene vows to move on Johnson ouster next week, against RNC advice

By Josh Christenson and Diana Glebova | New York Post Far-right Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene said Wednesday she will force a vote to oust House Speaker Mike Johnson “next week,” one day after House Democrats vowed to block her motion to vacate. In a morning Capitol Hill press conference, Greene (R-Ga.) stood alongside Rep. Thomas Massie (R-Ky.) to declare that they would seek to remove the Republican leader for his “three betrayals” on conservative priorities. “I think every member of Congress needs to take that vote, and let the chips fall where they may,” the Georgia congresswoman said. “Next week, I am going to be calling a motion to vacate — absolutely calling it. I can’t wait to see Democrats go out and support a Republican speaker and have to go home to their primary and h...

George Soros is paying student radicals who are fueling nationwide explosion of Israel-hating protests

The protests, which began when students took over Columbia University’s Morningside Heights campus lawn last week, have mushroomed nationwide. Copycat tent cities have been set up at colleges including Harvard, Yale, Berkeley in California, the Ohio State University and Emory in Georgia — all of them organized by branches of the Soros-funded Students for Justice in Palestine (SJP) — and at some, students have clashed with police.

The federal term handed down Monday is in addition to another 27-year sentence Murdaugh received in state court for similar financial offenses. “There’s not enough time and I don’t possess a sufficient vocabulary to adequately portray to you in words the magnitude of how I feel about the things I did,” Murdaugh said at Monday’s proceeding.

Elon Musk criticizes program that flew 320,000 ‘unvetted’ illegal immigrants into America

By Shannon Thaler | New York Post Elon Musk ripped President Joe Biden’s administration for secretly flying 320,000 “unvetted” migrants into the US, signaling that “the groundwork is being laid for something far worse than 9/11.” Musk issued the grave warning on X Tuesday, noting that it’s “just a matter of time” that the US faces another terrorist attack of that magnitude. “This administration is both importing voters and creating a national security threat from unvetted illegal immigrants,” Musk added in the post. “This is why groups on the far left fight so hard to stop voter ID requirements, under the absurd guise of protecting the right to vote,” the billionaire Tesla CEO said in a subsequent post that doubled down on his stance.

‘Small’ high-altitude balloon of unknown origin flying over Colorado, Western U.S., poses ‘no threat’

By Victor Nava / New York Post The US government is tracking a high-altitude balloon of unknown origin — and officials insist that it is not a security threat. The balloon, flying at an altitude between 43,000 and 45,000 feet, was determined to be “not maneuverable” and poses no threat to national security, the North American Aerospace Defense Command told The Post on Friday.  The nation’s airspace watchdog described it as “small” and said its fighter jets intercepted the balloon over Utah.  “NORAD will continue to track and monitor the balloon,” the military agency said in a statement. “The FAA also determined the balloon posed no hazard to flight safety.”  READ THE FULL STORY AT THE NEW YORK POST
