Erika Jayne says she was joking about PK, Dorit Kemsley breakup

Image
Erika Jayne is backtracking on her comments about Dorit and Paul “PK” Kemsley’s marriage. After PK shaded Jayne on Instagram for claiming his marriage was on the rocks, the “Pretty Mess” singer commented on his post claiming it was all in good fun. “When did you get so sensitive? You know damn well I was joking..” the reality star wrote. Erika Jayne claims she was joking about friends PK and Dorit Kemsley’s potential split. Instagram/theprettymess Over the weekend, Jayne predicted her “Real Housewives of Beverly Hills” co-stars would be the next Bravolebrities to divorce during a panel at BravoCon. After being asked which relationship was headed to “Splitsville,” the 51-year-old initially dodged the question, saying she felt “bad.” However, she quickly changed her tune and marched to centerstage before revealing “Dorit and PK.” PK and Dorit have both spoken out about Jayne’s comments. Instagram/doritkemsley Many “Housewives” and fans of th...

It's too late for old guard Democrats to stop the red wave

Image
What are Democrats doing to avoid getting drowned by a “red wave” next Tuesday?  They’re rolling out the oldies. Bill Clinton, Hillary Clinton, and Barack Obama are back on the campaign trail.  But the nostalgia tour is only serving to remind voters how far the Democratic Party has fallen.  Bill Clinton didn’t even try to disguise the ugly truth at a stop in Hurleyville, NY, for congressional hopeful Josh Riley.  “Here’s the truth. We do have too much inflation, and we do have too much crime,” the ex-president conceded.  “But all this tough talk doesn’t amount to a hill of beans, that the Republicans are making,” he continued in a syntactical tangle perhaps born of embarrassment.  The trouble for Democrats is voters aren’t thinking about beans, they’re thinking about the Democratic Party’s record in office as crime soars and prices at the supermarket shoot to the ceiling.  Voters have little hope and want change. So what is ex-Pr...

Hillary Clinton accuses GOP of using fear tactics at NYC Hochul rally

Image
Former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton accused Republicans of using fear tactics to attract voters during a Manhattan rally for Gov. Kathy Hochul Thursday night. Clinton was joined by Vice President Kamala Harris as the two powerful Democrats put their weight behind Hochul, who has been losing ground to Republican rival Rep. Lee Zeldin in the final days of the governor’s race. “They don’t care about keeping you safe,” Clinton said of Republicans during the rally at Barnard College. “They want to keep you scared.” The former Democratic presidential candidate said the Republican Party ambushes New Yorkers with ads about crime using “scary pictures and scary music,” but offers no solutions to combat violence. “I see … ads about crime every 30 seconds,” Clinton said. “No solutions, but just a lot of really fearful, scary pictures and scary music.” She then invoked the hammer attack that left House Speaker Nancy Pelosi’s husband hospitaliz...

Hochul denies crime's a problem but Hillary Clinton lets truth slip

Image
Hillary Clinton and Krazy Kat Hochul need to get on the same page concerning crime. Is it real, as Clinton seems to believe? Or is it, as Hochul has contended, an overblown campaign distraction — promoted by “master manipulators” and “data deniers” to derail her bid to become New York’s first elected female governor? Sisterly solidarity was the order of the day at Barnard College Thursday — with Hillary and Hochul standing shoulder-to-shoulder before a cheering, fully committed array of feminism-centric true believers. It was one of those late-campaign events where the hype is thick, where the rhetoric is hyperbolic and where the facts don’t really matter. How very odd, then, that Hillary let the truth peek through. Oh, for sure, the partisan newspeak was there — darkly threatening Republicans hide behind every tree in Hillaryland, and have for decades. But suddenly she slipped. “They don’t care about keeping you safe,” she said — they b...

Jewish group backs Lee Zeldin over 'failed' Gov. Kathy Hochul

Image
An influential Orthodox Jewish business group with a history of backing powerful New York Democrats is crossing party lines to endorse Rep. Lee Zeldin over Gov. Kathy Hochul in the race for governor. Saying Hochul “failed” to make key changes to New York’s controversial bail laws and reduce crime, Duvi Honig, CEO of the Wall Street-based Orthodox Jewish Chamber of Commerce, told The Post that New York needs a governor that exhibits an “unwavering stand on violent crime” — and Zeldin is the man for the job.  “Violent criminals endanger local businesses and institutions, jeopardize the lives and livelihoods of law-abiding individuals, and harm state and local economies and the sense of security all residents of New York need and deserve,” said Honig in his endorsement letter.  “Gov. Kathy Hochul has not risen to meet the urgency of the moment,” he wrote. Honig also said he was disturbed by Hochul’s refusal to call Albany lawmakers into a speci...

Zeldin won't let hecklers stop his anti-crime remarks at site of NYC rape

Image
Hecklers tried to disrupt a Friday appearance by Republican gubernatorial candidate Lee Zeldin in Manhattan  — but their shouts failed to silence his anti-crime broadsides against Democratic Gov. Kathy Hochul. During a news conference near the scene of the Thursday morning rape of a tourist jogging in Hudson River Park, Zeldin said, “It is important that we are doing everything in our power to make our streets and our subway safe.” “Now, unfortunately, Kathy Hochul doesn’t want to be here talking about these issues,” he said. “She wants to send her supporters to make sure that we aren’t talking about fighting crime.” Zeldin also blasted Hillary Clinton for accusing Republicans of trying to keep voters “scared” while she campaigned for Hochul with Vice President Kamala Harris on Thursday night. In response to a question from The Post, Zeldin said Clinton and Hochul should be telling New Yorkers, “I understand your concerns. I want to do absol...

Lee Zeldin calls for Democrats to unite with him vs. crime

Image
Republican gubernatorial candidate Lee Zeldin reached out to New York’s Democratic voters Monday during a pre-Election Day rally at which he highlighted his tough-on-crime message. Speaking outside a Bronx subway station where a rider was stabbed in the neck Sunday morning, Zeldin said, “New Yorkers of all walks of life are uniting as New Yorkers to take back our streets, to take back our subways.” “People have said: Enough,” he said. “This isn’t about Republican vs. Democrat. This is about all of us uniting.” Zeldin — whose surging campaign has forced President Biden, former President Bill Clinton and other Democratic bigwigs to stump for Gov. Kathy Hochul — also said voters in the deep-blue Empire State “are not monolithic.” “You can’t just paint somebody who is a registered Democrat and say because they are a registered Democrat, that means that they are just going to vote one particular way — that they don’t think for themselves, the...

Get out and vote for Lee Zeldin to save New York & its democracy

Image
It’s crunch time: New York’s fate will be decided today. To save the state — cap its bloody crime surge, reverse the endless tax hikes and stop the exodus to other states — you need to get out and vote for Rep. Lee Zeldin. It’s the last chance to stop the insanity and end the one-party rule that has monopolized power, put special interests and lefty ideology ahead of the public’s needs and left New Yorkers poorer, less safe and more taxed. Democrats rail about the “threat to democracy,” but what kind of democracy operates with just one party that has no check on its power? That’s what’s happened to New York. This year offers the best shot in a long time to bring back a competitive, two-party system. But it won’t happen unless New Yorkers get to the polls and cast their votes for Zeldin and other Republicans all the way down the ballot. If you believe Gov. Kathy Hochul’s claim — and not the statistics — that New York crime is just a myth ...
