Last month, we refurbished 10 tennis courts in Crotona Park — the only public tennis courts in the Bronx with lights for night play. We stopped by recently to see how things were going. Thank you to NYJTL, USTA and Yonex for helping us deliver high-quality public spaces that New Yorkers deserve.

HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAH. HAHAHAHAHAH. Eric Schmitt just accused Jack Smith of lying about going to an Atlanta Hawk's basketball game. Smith went to see the Iowa Hawkeyes.

Before calling someone a “dirtbag,” the Senator should have had his facts straight. An apology is in order. Glad one of us knew the difference between the Atlanta Hawks and the Iowa Hawkeyes!

GOP Sen. Eric Schmitt accused Jack Smith of perjury, claiming he had evidence Smith secretly went to an Atlanta Hawks game. Then it all backfired in real-time.

Eric Schmitt accused Jack Smith of perjury over supposed evidence placing him at an Atlanta Hawks game. There was just one problem: It was the Iowa Hawkeyes.

Jack Smith: "Our investigation developed proof beyond a reasonable doubt that President Trump engaged in serious crimes against our nation ... rather than accept his defeat in the 2020 election, he engaged in a criminal scheme to overturn the results and prevent the lawful transfer of power"

Here’s the most incredible story you’ll read today. A small plane with four people aboard crashes in a field. Another pilot witnesses it. That pilot happens to be flying a bunch of skydivers. They offer to jump to assist, are given permission. The skydivers happen to be EMTs. Everyone survives.

Skydivers alert emergency crews, assist after plane crashes near East Troy airport
Four people were aboard the single-engine plane when it went down in a cornfield near Carvers School Road in East Troy at about 1:30 p.m.

When you die, please don't take your organs with you. They will be of NO use to you. Please sign the back of your driver's license and be an organ donor. This is the highest form of "charity" because the recipient can do nothing for you except be grateful for your selfless gift.

Talking recently to family members of people snatched up and expelled to third countries by ICE, I learned: 1) All of those captured were in 287(g) jurisdictions; 2) None of the family members had known what 287(g) was and had erroneously thought people with no arrests were safe.

This is akin to what Putin did via the GRU fronts in the Prigozhin network in the Sahel. Especially Dagalo's/Hemedti's controlled parts of southern Sudan. They took the gold out through MERO-Gold & MERO-Invest & then laundered them through the UAE. Because no one legit will touch it.

For years we've heard that Biden created a "Ministry of Truth," which didn't actually happen. But, I still hear people talking about it. But then Trump directed his FCC boss to be a literal Minister of Truth and the story disappeared within a day or two. What are we even doing here?
