An NYPD officer on his first day on the job was stabbed in the head with a machete by a 19-year-old who investigators believe may be an Islamic extremist during New Year's Eve celebrations near Times Square.
The attack happened just after 10 p.m. about eight blocks from Times Square, just outside of the high-security zone where thousands of revelers were screened for weapons as they prepared to ring in 2023.
Trevor Bickford, 19, of Wells, Maine, allegedly approached the officers on 8th Avenue between 51st and 52nd streets armed with a large knife that he used to slash two of them, Commissioner Keechant Sewell said at an overnight press conference.

During the Jan. 6th riot, Ray Epps, the infamous yet uncharged rioter who was filmed urging Trump supporters at the peaceful “Stop the Steal” rally to storm the U.S. Capitol, told his nephew that he’d “orchestrated” something. But what exactly did he “orchestrate”? It’s not entirely clear.
This discovery comes from the Jan. 6th committee, believe it or not, which this week released a transcript of his Jan. 21st, 2022 deposition. During the deposition, what he’d told his nephew came up as a topic of discussion.
Specifically, one of the congressional investigators noted that on the morning of Jan. 6th, Epps’ nephew had texted him, “You and Jim be safe.”

Friday, during an appearance on FNC’s “Jesse Watters Primetime,” House Republican leader Kevin McCarthy teased Congress’ immediate upcoming actions to start 2023.
First up, according to the California Republican, after electing the Speaker of the House was to repeal the 87,000 IRS agents provision passed by Congress earlier this year.
“Great question – the first thing we have to do is elect our Speaker. We can’t do anything until we elect that Speaker,” he said. “And if you watch, the White House is actually pushing back on our investigations, saying we’re not going to give you anything till you get this solved.

The system's too powerful! You can't beat a "big brother" police State! The globalists control all the money and have all the leverage! I've heard every reason under the sun why individual liberty will continue to lose out to the rapidly advancing technocratic surveillance structure extinguishing Western freedoms today. I say, "So what?" The bigger they come, the harder they fall.
Our whole human story is a repeating pattern in which power accumulates, empires emerge, power corrupts, divisions grow, and empires come crashing down. Anyone who thinks an international oligarchy of corporate behemoths, central banks, and Intelligence Community spy chiefs will succeed where the Egyptian, Greek, Roman, Carolingian, Byzantine, Ottoman, Yuan, Ming, and British empires all failed

Drugmakers are set to raise the prices of 350 drugs at the beginning of 2023.
Pfizer, GlaxoSmithKline PLC, Bristol Myers Squibb, AstraZeneca PLC, and Sanofi SA are among several drugmakers set to raise prices, according to healthcare research firm 3 Axis Advisors, Reuters reported. The price hikes are in response to a number of factors, mainly inflation, supply problems, and the Biden administration's Inflation Reduction Act, which will allow Medicare, the national government's health insurance program for seniors and people with certain disabilities, to negotiate several drug prices directly starting in 2026.

The 9th Circuit U.S. Court of Appeals in the case Dodge v. Evergreen School District decided a Washington middle school teacher was exercising his free speech rights while wearing his red MAGA hat at school training sessions.
Middle school teacher Eric Dodge started to wear his MAGA hat to school meetings in 2019 but principal Caroline Garrett threatened disciplinary actions against Dodge if he continued to wear the hat.
Dodge claimed principal Garrett called him a racist and a homophobe for wearing the hat and stated, “you need to have your union rep”

Last year’s column successfully predicted Democratic Senate gains and a smaller-than-expected Republican House takeover. Here is our not-totally-serious forecast for 2023:
JANUARY: Rep. Kevin McCarthy falls six votes short of 218 in House speaker election as 10 Freedom Caucus members vote for challenger Arizona Rep. Andy Biggs. As deadlock persists, Newt Gingrich offers to return as speaker. President Joe Biden stuns Democrats by announcing he won’t seek second term. House Republicans ditch McCarthy and embrace Gingrich, who is elected on the fourth ballot. Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene named Intelligence Committee chair.

The end of 2022 is underway as revellers on the other side of the world begin ringing in the New Year.
South Korea is among the latest countries to enter 2023 with its first bell-tolling ceremony in the capital for three years due to the Covid pandemic.
Cho Gue-sung, a footballer from the country's World Cup Qatar team, was among 10 honorary citizens to headline the event at the Bosingak Pavilion in central Seoul, which was spread over a much larger area this year to avoid overcrowding.
Elsewhere in the city, buddhist followers at temples attached name cards with wishes to specially erected fences, as is tradition, before lighting candles and

In an Arkansas courtroom on Tuesday, the attorneys for Hunter Biden’s stripper baby mama, Lunden Alexis Roberts, filed a motion to have their daughter’s (Navy Joan Roberts) last name changed to reflect that of the presidential family tree she hails from. It’s the kind of embarrassing family drama the liberal broadcast networks would be all over if their last name were “Trump” and it involved one of the former President’s adult sons.
The story broke Thursday morning but instead of dedicating so much as a news brief on their morning or evening newscasts, ABC’s World News Tonight and the CBS Evening News

Departing House Speaker Nancy Pelosi raised the maximum rate that lawmakers can pay House staff for a second time this year, totaling $212,000.
Earlier this year, Pelosi issued a directive that raised the pay rate from $199,300 to $203,700. She also issued the minimum salary pay for House staff of $45,000.
Pelosi defended her action, saying that it would help Congress retain quality staff who might potentially look for outside opportunities from private employers.
“As you know, our hard-working, patriotic congressional staffers are integral to the functioning of the House of Representatives," Pelosi wrote in a letter to House lawmakers,

Vice President Kamala Harris’s “gamesmanship” against her staff has led to a long-standing pattern of dysfunction, prompting questions about her capabilities under pressure, a new book reports.
A former aide said Harris engaged in “really unnecessary gamesmanship” with staff, behavior the person attributed to “deep, deep insecurity,” reports a forthcoming book by Chris Whipple obtained by the Washington Examiner.
The staffer, who spent years working for Harris, claimed she “refused to do the kind of preparation that you need to do before going public on a hardcore policy matter. And then she became incensed and outraged when things wouldn’t go the way she thought they were supposed to.

Abortion data from seven states in the U.S. show that at least 34 babies were born alive in botched abortions between 2020 and 2022, Life News reported on Thursday.
The pro-life outlet looked at data from Arizona, Florida, Minnesota, Texas, Arkansas, Oklahoma, and Michigan, though it noted that “most states do not keep track of the number of babies who survive abortions…”
“[A]nd the few that do provide little information about whether the babies received care, survived or were abandoned to die,” according to the report. (Tweet)
