New York Democratic Governor Kathy Hochul said on Tuesday that her state has been overwhelmed by the number of illegal aliens who have arrived in recent months and blamed the border crisis on congressional Republicans. Hochul‚ whose net favorability rating has dropped by eight points‚ made the remarks during an interview with leftist MSNBC host Lawrence O’Donnell. “I still believe that there can be bipartisan solutions‚” she said of Congress. “The institution is capable of it if you get the right people in there. And I’m going to work to make sure that we have the right people in there. And also even before next November’s election when I believe we will pick up the House‚ the Republicans in the state of New York‚ and there are ten of them‚ they have the power to caucus together‚ march down to Speaker [Mike] Johnson’s office and say‚ ‘we demand that you do something about the border‚ bring it to the floor and we will support it’. Hochul claimed that Republicans were responsible for the border crisis and that they now “own” the issue heading into the November election. “Use the power that has been given to you‚ because we are being so affected‚” she continued. “We have 175‚000 migrants who came here — they came here for a better life‚ they came here for a job‚ but our city and its resources are absolutely overwhelmed. We need a break. I’m working to get people jobs. They’re here. I’m going to make them work and get them jobs. But until then‚ we need some relief at the border‚ and those Republicans‚ even in one state like New York‚ ten of them can make this happen. And if they don’t‚ this will be a wedge issue‚ a forceful issue against them this November as well. So I’m putting them on notice‚ you broke it‚ you now own it.” CLICK HERE TO GET THE DAILYWIRE+ APP WATCH: NY Gov.

“The View” host Sunny Hostin accused former South Carolina Republican Governor Nikki Haley of being “inauthentic” when she reacted emotionally to the fact that her husband‚ MAJ Michael Haley‚ is deployed halfway around the world. Hostin made the remarks during Wednesday’s broadcast of the ABC midday talk show‚ suggesting to her co-hosts that she was qualified to judge the validity of Haley’s emotions because she also “came from a military family.” WATCH: Sunny Hostin claims Nikki Haley's emotions about missing her deployed husband were "inauthentic":"There's something that military families come through.

Former House Speaker Nancy Pelosi (D-CA) floated a new theory during a recent interview with MSNBC host Jen Psaki‚ claiming that Russian President Vladimir Putin was probably holding “something financial” over former President Donald Trump. The topic came up during an interview that aired Monday evening on the former White House Press Secretary’s show‚ and Pelosi was first to broach the subject. “What does he have on Donald Trump that he has to constantly be catering to Putin?

A New York City woman who live-streamed herself ranting against police hours before she drunkenly struck and killed an NYPD officer in 2021 was sentenced to at least 22 years in prison on Wednesday. Jessica Beauvais‚ 34‚ was convicted of manslaughter in the fatal hit-and-run of Anastasios Tsakos‚ a 14-year NYPD veteran and father of two. After Tsakos’ widow‚ Irene‚ tearfully pled with Queens Supreme Court Justice Michael Aloysed for justice on Wednesday‚ he sentenced Beauvais to 20 years in prison for aggravated manslaughter and between two and seven years for leaving the scene of an accident‚ the New York Post reported. Beauvais’ sentences will run consecutively. “As Jessica Beauvais was sobering up in a police station that morning‚ our world was collapsing‚” Irene Tsakos said. “Because of a single person’s despicable actions‚ our family was sentenced to a lifetime of loss.” Tsakos was struck by Beauvais while investigating an accident and directing traffic on the Long Island Expressway in the early morning hours of April 27‚ 2021. Hours earlier‚ the woman posted a Facebook stream where she discussed the trial of Minneapolis police officer Derek Chauvin. “This week we are going to talk about the ignorance that was the Derek Chauvin trial — or the ignorance that is essentially just is this f***ing justice system.” She also played the song “F*** Tha Police” by NWA. She added‚ “Like NWA say about the police – if you’re going to kill me‚ at least I get to take someone with me. I’m one of those people. If I’m going to go‚ someone is coming.” The Daily Mail reported that Beauvais was seen vaping and drinking during the video‚ and police said that she later confessed to downing vodka‚ wine‚ and smoking weed before the deadly hit-and-run. She was found to be high on drugs and her blood alcohol level was nearly twice the legal limit at the time of the hit-and-run.

Asked by the judge if she wanted to say anything before he handed down his sentence‚ Beauvais simply said‚ “I’m sorry‚” CBS News reported. Beauvais had previously rejected a plea deal that would have sent her to prison for 16 years. “My children don’t understand the permanence of death‚” Irene Tsakos added before a courtroom filled with NYPD officers. “They were trying to figure out ways to bring him back somehow. Our son wanted me to get him a big kite so he could fly it high in the sky so his daddy could grab onto it and bring him back. He cried daily ’cause Daddy would never hold him again. He was only 3 years old.” “Our 6-year-old daughter is a daddy’s girl‚” she continued. “At night she would pray and promise to be very good if only he would bring her daddy back.” Receiving the NYPD Medal of Honor (Posthumously) is Detective Anastasios Tsakos of Highway 3.

A private school in New Haven‚ Connecticut placed an employee on administrative leave after he and his wife had a confrontation with a Jewish man outside his home over a pro-Israel yard sign. Charles Rich stood by his wife‚ a city employee named Thabisa Rich‚ during her one-woman protest outside a Jewish family’s house‚ in which she chanted ethnic cleansing slogans through a megaphone‚ according to a video first reported on by The Daily Wire. The man’s employer‚ The Hopkins School‚ located a few houses away from the site of the incident‚ announced on Saturday that Rich was placed on leave from his Associate Director role‚ and the couple was precluded from being on campus. “In the video and in social media posts‚ the spouse used antisemitic language that is deeply concerning‚” Head of School Matt Glendinning stated‚ according to the Hartford Courant. “Antisemitism in all its forms has no place in the Hopkins community or in our larger communities. While this incident did not directly involve the school or its students‚ we understand that issues such as this can be and have been very upsetting and unsettling.” The house appears to have been targeted due to the family’s pro-Israel sign. When Rabbi Elchanan Poupko‚ the resident‚ went outside to confront the couple and accuse them of “Nazi behavior‚” Rich responded‚ “Well‚ you do have a sign that says you support Israel.” VIDEO: A New Haven‚ Connecticut city official chanted ethnic cleansing slogans with a megaphone outside a Jewish family’s home‚ according to video of the incident obtained by reporter @KassyDillon.

By harassing Jews?” Poupko asked. “Harassing Jews is peace? What the heck is wrong with you?” Poupko met with school officials on Tuesday to express his concerns and tell his side of the story. A representative for New Haven Mayor Justin Elicker told The Daily Wire Wednesday that Thabisa Rich‚  who is the city’s Community Outreach Coordinator for the Department of Arts‚ Culture and Tourism‚ is focusing on “internal administration duties” while they investigate her. “While people have very different and strongly held views on the war between Israel and Hamas‚ the mayor believes there is an appropriate time‚ place‚ and manner in which to express them‚” the spokesperson said previously. “Mayor Elicker believes Ms. Rich exercised very poor judgement in this regard and finds several of her personal social media posts to be concerning and offensive.” Thabisa Rich was hired last year by New Haven and given the responsibility of managing $1.2 million in federal funding for the city under the America Rescue Plan Act‚ according to the New Haven Register. At the time‚ Director of Cultural Affairs Adriane Jefferson said Thabisa Rich was hired because they were “looking for someone who can be a bridge builder‚” the local news outlet reported. Thabisa Rich wiped her personal Facebook page where she posted a livestream of her protest and several anti-Semitic posts after The Daily Wire contacted her. Posts include stating she “does not condemn Hamas” and pushing anti-Semitic tropes by posting “y’all have your pockets lined with bosses who are Jewish” among others. Thabisa Rich invoked anti-Semitic tropes about Jewish power and said she would not condemn the terrorist group Hamas in now-deleted posts to her Facebook. In the videos‚ Thabisa Rich can be heard repeatedly shouting‚ “From the river to the sea‚ Palestine will be free‚” a chant often used by pro-Palestinian radicals that is seen as a call for ethnic cleansing of the Jewish and other non-Arab populations that live in Israel. “We were very shaken‚” Poupko said. “It turns out they are both very prominent members of the community who came to harass us because of our ‘stand with Israel sign.’” Thabisa Rich encouraged others to come back to the street with her during a livestream after she left the scene. “You tell me when you want to come back and ask for a ceasefire and ask for this people to stop their hate because they think that they are white and privileged and that they think that their religion is superior than the rest‚” she stated. “I need people to show up to this very same street. We need to find a time to come back and show up in numbers and say no‚ enough is enough.” “America is a country full of hate and racism and people need to just be honest and understand that is just what it is‚” she said. The Hopkins School and Charles Rich did not respond to a request for comment.

Florida Governor Ron DeSantis (R) is pushing the state of Florida to implement term limits for politicians in the state who serve in U.S. Congress. DeSantis said that it was only a matter of time before other states start following Florida’s lead in certifying proposed amendments that address the issue under Article V of the Constitution. “At the invitation of the U.S. Term Limits organization‚ I traveled today to encourage other state legislators to follow Florida’s lead and pass a resolution to call for a constitutional amendment for congressional term limits‚” DeSantis posted on X. “We will never turn our country around if we don’t change the incentives in DC.” Speaking to reporters on Tuesday‚ DeSantis said that having “traveled the country in the last year‚ the number of people that have asked about support for term limits is incredible. It was something that came up all the time.” “I was just in Indiana today meeting with some of the senators there. Their House has done it. I think their Senate’s gonna do it‚ too‚” he continued. “North Carolina‚ I believe one of the Houses has done it. So I was able to meet with some of the senators here because I think this is something that the people in the states have the ability to propose changes to discipline Washington. The Founding Fathers structured the Constitution like that for a reason. I think it’s something that would get huge support.” “And the one thing I’ve noticed is it doesn’t matter if you’re Republican‚ Democrat‚ Independent‚ male‚ female‚ white‚ black‚ rich‚ poor — people support term limits for members of Congress‚” he concluded. “We’ve seen what’s happened up there. It’s been really poor performance for decades now. The incentives are not right. We need to change the incentives. Term limits is one way to do it. And so my hope is that states‚ particularly states that want to see big changes in Washington‚ will use the power that they have to advance these really important proposals‚ like term limits. But we have the ability in the states working together‚ to propose some really important changes‚ that are gonna be beneficial to this country.” CLICK HERE TO GET THE DAILYWIRE+ APP WATCH: We need term limits for members of Congress.

The United States is facing a new challenge in the form of an invasive species of bed bug‚ known as Cimex hemipterus or the tropical bed bug. This hardy pest‚ once confined to equatorial regions‚ has now been confirmed in states such as Florida and Hawaii. The presence of this species is particularly concerning due to its resistance to traditional insecticides and its ability to evade common traps. Historically‚ bed bugs were nearly eradicated from developed nations following World War II‚ thanks to the widespread use of powerful insecticides like DDT. However‚ these insects have made a comeback‚ developing genetic mutations that confer resistance to chemicals and sporting thicker exoskeletons that are less penetrable by pesticides. This resurgence has led to increased infestations across the globe‚ including in the US. “A new harder-to-kill species of bed bug is invading the US‚ experts say — &; may already have taken up residence in many northern cities. Once confined to countries near the equator‚ the species known as Cimex hemipterus — or the tropical bed bug — has already been confirmed in… pic.twitter.com/LVJZXk3bT0 — Laura Miers (@LauraMiers) February 13‚ 2024 The tropical bed bug’s adaptability is alarming. Unlike the common bed bug‚ it can escape smooth-walled pitfall traps with ease‚ thanks to more hairs on its legs that provide better grip. This biological difference has significant implications for pest management strategies‚ as most control products were designed for the common bed bug‚ assuming they would be effective against all species. The spread of the tropical bed bug is also facilitated by modern conveniences such as heating and air conditioning‚ which maintain constant indoor temperatures favorable for the pests. The resumption of travel following pandemic restrictions has further contributed to their distribution. Cases have been reported as far north as Russia and Norway‚ indicating that these insects can now survive in colder climates. If you have this much bedbugs in your house‚ just walk away naked and start a new life elsewhere. pic.twitter.com/Qb4kxlCzuX — NEFERTITI LITE (@FirstObidient) February 9‚ 2024 In urban centers across the US‚ bed bug outbreaks have become a growing concern. Cities like Chicago‚ New York City‚ and Philadelphia have been identified as hotspots for infestations. These pests are not only a nuisance but also pose potential health risks‚ as there are fears they could transmit diseases between humans‚ including hepatitis. The battle against bed bugs is notoriously difficult. Experts advise homeowners to look for signs of infestation‚ such as inflamed bite marks arranged in lines‚ rusty or reddish stains on bedding‚ or small black dots indicating fecal matter. Traditional chemical treatments are often ineffective‚ leading many professionals to employ alternative methods such as heating rooms to high temperatures or meticulous vacuuming of cracks and crevices. As the nation grapples with this issue‚ it’s clear that a multi-faceted approach is necessary. Public awareness campaigns‚ research into new pest control methods‚ and perhaps even policy changes regarding pesticide use may be required to combat these resilient insects. The rise of the tropical bed bug serves as a reminder of the ongoing battle between human innovation and the adaptability of nature. In conclusion‚ the emergence of the tropical bed bug in the US is a testament to the ever-evolving challenges of pest management. As these insects continue to spread‚ it is imperative that we develop new strategies to protect our homes and health from this hard-to-kill species. The fight against the tropical bed bug will require persistence‚ ingenuity‚ and a collective effort from communities‚ scientists‚ and policymakers alike.   The post Invasive Tropical Bed Bug Species Poses New Challenge for American Households appeared first on The Conservative Brief.

A 13-year-old boy “beat all odds” by becoming the first person to ever be cured of an “incurable” brain cancer. Lucas Jemeljanova first fell ill about seven years ago. While on vacation with his parents‚ Cedric and Olesja‚ he said he felt unwell. Then‚ all of a sudden‚ he could no longer walk a straight line. Nosebleeds came shortly after‚ and then he started losing consciousness. At only 6 years old‚ Lucas was diagnosed with diffuse intrinsic pontine glioma (DIPG). Statistically‚ 98% of those with the incredibly rare cancer die within five years. Children usually die within 12 months or less. But Cedric and Olesja were determined to give him a chance to survive. So they took him to France where he was chosen at random to undergo the BIOMEDE trial. Facebook The drug Lucas received worked by blocking the mTOR portion‚ which helps to divide and grow cancer cells. Before Lucas took the treatment‚ it had never shown success. Years passed‚ and the cancer seemingly went away as Lucas continued to thrive. Fearing the cancer could return‚ his doctors didn’t know when it was safe to stop treatment. They later found out that Lucas silently stopped taking the medication a year and a half ago‚ and he remained in remission nonetheless. He has officially been cancer-free for five years. “Over a series of MRI scans‚ I watched as the tumor completely disappeared‚” Lucas’ doctor‚ Jacques Grill‚ told AFP. “I don’t know of any other case like him in the world.” Scientists Are Working Hard to Learn How the Medication Worked For Lucas At 13‚ the boy has continued to beat the brain cancer‚ and he’s enjoying a typical‚ happy childhood. Seven other children participated in the trial alongside Lucas‚ and it added years to their lives‚ but he was the only one cured. It’s still unclear why he survived when others didn’t‚ but scientists are hoping to find answers in the coming years and months. Facebook Dr. Grill has a theory that Lucas has “biological particularities” that pair perfectly with his medication. “Lucas’ tumor had an extremely rare mutation which we believe made its cells far more sensitive to the drug‚” a researcher named Marie-Anne Debily‚ who works with Dr. Gill‚ noted. “Lucas’ case offers real hope. We will try to reproduce in vitro the differences that we have identified in his cells.” Scientists are currently working to reproduce the difference in Lucas’s cells. From there‚ they hope to replicate those differences in organoids to see if the drug will continue to work as it did for Lucas. “The next step will be to find a drug that has the same effect on tumor cells as these cellular changes‚” said Dr. Debily You can find the source of this story’s featured image here.
