New York Attorney General Letitia James ran into a tough crowd on Thursday when she spoke at a ceremony for the New York City Fire Department (FDNY). The Democrat prosecutor was showered with boos when she walked onto the stage for the swearing-in ceremony of first responders‚ including Rev. Pamela Holmes‚ who was hailed as the first African-American woman chaplain of the FDNY‚ Fox News reported. “Oh‚ c’mon‚ we’re in a house of God‚” James said in an apparent attempt to quiet the chorus of boos. “Simmer down.” Shortly after the boos stopped‚ James’ speech was interrupted by chants of “Trump! Trump! Trump!” WATCH: Letitia James gets booed by the FDNY and when she tells them to "simmer down‚" they start shouting "Trump! Trump! Trump!" 😂 pic.twitter.com/ECNGwOChoJ — Julia 🇺🇸 (@Jules31415) March 7‚ 2024 After James’ address‚ FDNY Chief John Hodgens rebuked those in the crowd who voiced their disdain for the attorney general. “Today’s ceremony was about one thing: the accomplishments of the members being promoted‚” he said. “The members whose behavior distracted from that celebration were an embarrassment and not befitting of the world’s best fire department.” James recently celebrated Judge Arthur Engoron’s decision against former President Donald Trump‚ ordering him to pay a $454 million fine‚ including interest‚ in the civil business fraud suit from the attorney general’s office. James filed the suit against Trump after she ran for her position promising voters she would go after Trump‚ calling the former president a “con man” and “carnival barker.” After Engoron sided with James in the civil business fraud case against Trump‚ the AG posted on social media‚ “$464‚576‚230.62‚” the combined amount that Trump and his fellow defendants owed after the judgment. Her post was viewed by many as a taunt targeted at the leading Republican presidential candidate‚ and she followed up that post with additional tweets that added the interest Trump owed with each passing day.

The case will go before the appeals court in the coming days with James’ brief due before the panel on March 11 and Trump’s reply due on March 18. The former president has maintained throughout the case that he and his business did nothing wrong‚ arguing that his assets had even been undervalued.

Just days after Valentine’s Day‚ students all over the country were celebrating another important holiday: No One Eats Alone Day. It’s one day out of the year that kids in the lunchroom are sure to have company‚ even if they usually sit by themselves. Loneliness has become an increasing problem for many‚ especially following the pandemic. It’s more important than ever for kids to feel included and accepted by their peers! No One Eats Alone Day began in honor of Lili Rachel Smith‚ a young girl who often felt left out at school because of her cranial facial syndrome. When she passed away at age 15‚ it made other teens in her area think long and hard about what it feels like to be lonely. Now‚ schools all across the nation are observing this special day. According to Fox 56 News‚ the initiative is having beneficial results for students. No One Eats Alone Day is combatting loneliness in the lunchroom. Screengrab from YouTube “I’m usually very quiet‚” said John Taylor‚ a freshman at participating Henry Clay High School. “I don’t like to talk to people all the time. But I really see‚ by doing this‚ it makes me break out from just being quiet all the time and instead lets me go out and see different people.” U.S. Senator Chris Murphy visited CREC Academy of Computer Science and Engineering in Hartford‚ Connecticut on No One Eats Alone Day to talk about the devastating effects of loneliness. Some students truly took the initiative to heart! Sixth grader Nana Wiafe told WFSB that he’s always keeping an eye out for kids who look like they’re being bullied or isolated. He usually invites them to join his friends for lunch! Screengrab from WFSB No One Eats Alone Day is such a great reminder for children and adults alike to keep reaching out to others in our community. You never know when someone really needs some company. You can find the source of this story’s featured image here.
