Zohran Mamdani might point to Sunday morning’s events in Flatbush as exactly what he’s thinking of when he says he’ll order the NYPD not to respond to most domestic-violence calls, sending social workers instead: After all, the subject of the complaint wound up shot dead by responding officers. Except that it turned out the guy was carrying, though his victim didn’t know when she rang 911 for help as an ex she’d gotten a protection order against was banging on her door. She’d plainly told him the police were coming, as he was on his way out of the building,…

Women proudly fight, too Twenty minutes ago, Pete Hegseth was opining on heavy duty things like congestion pricing. Now, this Douglas MacArthur-lite TV talker’s commanding the greatest smartest toughest army in captivity. He is anti ladies in the armed forces. OK. I personally prefer them in Dior. But in a 1973 North American Newspaper Alliance, one former teacher said: “I load and unload at the Brooklyn Army Terminal. I’d met a WAC who praised the service and today — patriotic and proud — I also wear that uniform. I’m now in the reserves. Wanting an education, I figured best way’s through the…

An English mother of five children who works for the state health care system as a nurse secretly “married” Manchester synagogue terrorist Jihad Al-Shamie after converting to Islam, according to a report.

The University of North Carolina’s disappointing football season continues to be exacerbated by sideline shenanigans. Bill Belichick’s Tar Heels found themselves on the receiving end of another blowout on Saturday afternoon, this time a 38-10 thrashing from the Clemson Tigers on their home field in front of more than 50,000 fans in Chapel Hill.  Compounding the brutal loss was another controversial sideline appearance from Jordon Hudson, Belichick’s 24-year-old girlfriend.

I’m a world expert on breaking bad news. Not because I’m some sort of empath or have any special degrees in psychology or grief management. But after several decades as an active neurosurgeon in major medical centers/trauma centers, I’ve had to break god-awful news to enumerable people—individuals whose loved ones have been killed, or are in coma, or are paralyzed from the neck down, or cannot move one side of their bodies, or can no longer speak; individuals with a newly discovered brain tumor that will take their life within a year or two, or whose entire body is riddled…

TORONTO — Luke Weaver does not feel like himself, but the Yankees are not yet ready to pull the plug on the reliever pitching in the spots he usually does. A year after he was the club’s closer during its run to the World Series, Weaver has found himself in a conundrum: within the last month, the Yankees noticed he was tipping his pitches, except something happened along the way in trying to avoid doing so that has disrupted his flow on the mound. The result has been two postseason appearances in which Weaver has yet to record an out,…

The Duchess of Sussex is facing backlash for sharing an Instagram Story video riding in a limo with her feet up near the Parisian tunnel where her late mother-in-law, Princess Diana, tragically died in 1997.
