Who Killed Sir David, and Why? UPDATE: ‘Somali Heritage,’ Motive Unknown

It’s almost midnight in England now, and many hours have passed since the news broke that Sir David Amess, a Tory member of Parliament, was stabbed to death during a meeting with constituents: Police said a 25-year-old man was arrested on suspicion of murder after the attack at a church in Leigh-on-Sea. They recovered a […]

Lesbian Love Triangle: NYPD Cop Murders Ex-Girlfriend’s New Lover

Allegedly, I hasten to add: The off-duty NYPD officer who allegedly shot her ex-girlfriend and killed the woman’s new lover may have snapped because she was clinging to hope that they’d get back together, a high-ranking police source told The Post Thursday. Officer Yvonne Wu, 31, had recently split with her ex, Jenny Li, 23, […]

Biden Begging for Lower Fuel Prices?

The man who, on his very first day in office, signed an executive order revoking the permit for the Keystone XL Pipeline, is now desperate for help to do something about rising fuel prices? The White House has been speaking with U.S. oil and gas producers in recent days about helping to bring down rising […]

MBD’s Trump Problem, and Mine

Let me start by saying that I like Michael Brendan Dougherty, and I’ve always liked him.

It started as a profane […]

Patriots Win Ugly

When the New England Patriots drafted Alabama quarterback Mac Jones, they also drafted me as a fan — Go Patriots, because Roll Tide! So I was pleased that the team came away with a victory Sunday over the Houston Texans. It was an ugly win, but a win is a win, and after the previous […]

Alabama … LOST?

After last night’s heartbreaking loss at Texas A&M, I texted my sons, “Y’all boys have been spoiled by Saban.” Over the past 13 seasons, dating back to 2008, Alabama has lost only 17 games, while recording two undefeated seasons (2009 and 2020) and winning six national championships. Under Saban, the Crimson Tide has won so […]

‘Smart Takes’ = Too Clever By Half

The first thing to understand about Jonathan Chait is that he has never been anything but a pundit. He hired on at The New Republic fresh out of the University of Michigan, and has never done the kind of journalism that involves any actual reporting. He’s never worked at a newspaper, covering city council meetings […]
