A couple of Tampa police officers have resigned recently after being accused of catching the eye of the same 911 dispatcher or, as they officially refer to her as, the same emergency communications officer.An investigation into allegations that three officers engaged in sexual activity with an emergency communications officer while on duty concluded that Officers Nevin Morales and Ryan Fagan had violated several of the police department’s policies, according to the Tampa Bay Times.The law enforcement certifications for both officers were sent to the Florida Department of Law Enforcement for review in April, which reportedly could result in those certifications being revoked. The investigation was summarized by officials with the Tampa police and released following a public records request. It states that an investigation was launched after a complaint was made by someone to the department’s Professional Standards Bureau.FORMER TOP NYPD OFFICIAL’S HOME SEARCHED AMID ALLEGATIONS HE DEMANDED SEX FOR OVERTIME PAYThe unnamed person claimed that three officers had been meeting up with an also unnamed emergency communications operator for sex while on duty. A classic case of a complaint from someone who didn’t get an invite? It’s hard to say.It could just as easily be someone doing the right…

As a light rain ceased, giving way to silence, President Donald Trump approached the Tomb of the Unknown Soldier on Monday and solemnly laid a wreath in remembrance of America’s service members who made the ultimate sacrifice. Trump — who was joined by Vice President JD Vance and Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth — then stood in salute as “Taps” echoed across the hallowed grounds. In his Memorial Day remarks at Arlington National Cemetery, the Commander in Chief lauded “our guardian angels,” describing them as the vital line of defense between “liberty and tyranny… civilization and barbarism… good and evil.” “We honor those who fell so that our Republic might stand, those who died so that our nation could live, those who gave up their sacred light on earth so that the sublime light of American freedom would shine forever and ever,” Trump told the crowd, which included many Gold Star families. “This Memorial Day we salute them, we exalt them, and we thank them for all that we have, for all that they gave. They gave everything.”More than 400,000 veterans and their dependents rest within the cemetery’s 639 acres, representing generations of military service from the Revolutionary War to the…

NEWYou can now listen to Fox News articles! FIRST ON FOX: California nursing homes with unionized staff received lower average federal quality ratings than facilities without confirmed union presence, according to a new report. “Union presence in a CMS-certified registered home appears to lower its CMS rating by almost 10 percent,” a new report published by the Center for Union Facts (CUF), a right-of-center organization critical of organized labor, reviewed by Fox News Digital found. The Department of Health and Human Services, through its Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services, scores nursing homes on a five-star scale based on how well they perform on health inspections, the number of staff present relative to patients, how much care patients are provided and the overall quality of care residents receive. The CUF analysis of federal CMS nursing-home ratings found that California facilities with unionized staff received ratings roughly 10% lower on average than facilities without a union presence, even after the study controlled for median county household income.TOP UNION CALLS COPS ON ITSELF TO ORCHESTRATE ‘CIVIL DISOBEDIENCE’ STUNT AT GOP OFFICE: SOURCE Non-union facilities averaged 3.17 stars, compared with 3.02 for unionized facilities, 2.96 for SEIU-unionized facilities and 2.86 for facilities represented by SEIU Local…

Despite 81 years since the island of Iwo Jima was declared secure — and several years since these two Marines last saw one another — the first thing out of their mouths wasn’t sentimental, it was trash talk. “Hey, get outta that chair,” barked the 101-year-old Don Graves. “Sitting in that chair with your arms folded.”“I’m freezing!” rejoined William “Billy” Byrd, now 100.“He looks like he’s been through battle right now,” Graves continued. The two Marines, part of the 2nd Battalion, 28th Marine Regiment, 5th Marine Division that was famously tasked with capturing Mount Suribachi on Iwo Jima, had been flown into Washington, D.C., to serve as Honorary Grand Marshals for the National Memorial Day Parade on Monday. Time was superfluous to the men who commenced their ribbing mere seconds upon spotting one another.Graves, a native of Detroit, Michigan, quit high school and joined the Marine Corps in 1942 at the age of 17.“It was always the Marine Corps,” he told photographer D. Clarke Evans in 2018. “My dad was in the Corps.”Graves noted that he was the only flame thrower in the 2nd Battalion to survive the battle.“We had 335 Marines going in; 18 came off,” said Graves, adding…

United States fighter jets have attacked the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps speedboats. Explosions were heard near the port of Bandar Abbas. This attack occurred on Monday as US and Iranian negotiators arrived in Qatar in hopes of advancing stalled talks. A series of explosions also occurred on land in Bandar Abbas, where an Iranian naval base is located. Trump Warns “No More Mr. Nice Guy” During Iran Talks Announcement Al Jazeera journalist Ali Hashem reported on the situation, citing an Iranian official who said that the IRGC targeted an unidentified vessel after US jets struck IRGC boats. The source added that gunfire was heard near Bandar Abbas. The initial attack on the Iranian vessels took place south of Larak Island, in the narrowest section of the Strait of Hormuz. This section of the vital waterway still remains firmly under a dual US-Iranian blockade. At least three Iranian sailors were killed, according to reports. The US Central Command (CENTCOM) later said in a statement that US forces had “conducted self-defense strikes in southern Iran today to protect our troops from threats posed by Iranian forces.” The statement added that the targets included missile sites and “Iranian boats attempting to emplace mines.” -RT The US…

This article was originally published by Vincent Cook at Natural News.  When it comes to production, capitalism and socialism are often presented as constituting extremes of a spectrum of economic organization, where control over the means of production is either entirely in the hands of profit-seeking private owners (the capitalists) at one extreme or in the hands of central planners (supposedly acting for the benefit of society according to socialists) at the other extreme. Framing the question with such terminology implicitly smears capitalists as profiting at the expense of society; a sordid linguistic trick that pretends that coercive centralization is more “social” than the capitalist alternative. This conceptual fog blinds one to the inherently anti-social totalitarian tyranny of the collectivist abrogation of profits and losses, which occurs in spite of the best intentions of many well-meaning socialists. Apart from the framing problem, there is also the problem that central planning isn’t the only type of deviation from capitalism. The individualist/capitalist alternative is founded on the libertarian principle that each individual is at liberty to do anything that doesn’t transgress against the private ownership rights of others, where each individual has the right to exclusive control over the use and disposition of oneself…

NEWYou can now listen to Fox News articles! Neal McDonough is looking back on a dark moment in his life and career.During a recent interview with Fox News Digital, the 60-year-old actor discussed his Jimmy Stewart biopic he is a part of, “Jimmy,” and a time when he thought his Hollywood career was over.”What time is the bar open? That was generally my thought process back then,” he explained. “It was, you know, fired from a show because I wouldn’t kiss a woman. No one would hire me because they thought I was this religious nut bag, which is that I love my wife so much. And no one can understand it, no one could understand it.”He went on to admit that while he “was always a drinker,” but “it became a bad problem” after he was blackballed for refusing to kiss his co-star, saying, “I lost the house, lost the cars, lost everything.”The actor is currently starring in “Jimmy,” which tells the story of Jimmy Stewart in celebration of what would have been the actor’s 118th birthday.
