Drivers across New York will soon face stricter penalties under a new point system taking effect in February, according to the Orange County Sheriff's Office.
Licenses will be suspended after 10 points within 24 months, compared to the current 11 points in 18 months.
Officials say this means minor violations could quickly add up under the new rules.
Drivers will now get points for broken tail lights, illegal U-turns, obstructing traffic and not moving for emergency vehicles.
There will also be increased points for speeding, using a phone while driving and failing to yield to pedestrians.
The new system begins Feb. 26.
 
So, I had an original thought. Let's see what's going on with Tim Walz from Minnesota after the disaster at the polls in November. So, I look to mainstream news - NBC, ABC, CBS etc and nothing to be found.

What? Has to be something, right?

Ahhhh, here it is!


A group of Minnesota state employees said they wrote to former Vice President Kamala Harris and the Democratic National Committee (DNC) multiple times "warning them" about Walz and what they described as his "incompetence, fraud scandals and retaliation." Walz was Harris' running mate on the failed Democratic 2024 ticket.

The New York Times published a blistering report on Saturday, headlined, "How Fraud Swamped Minnesota’s Social Services System on Tim Walz’s Watch," writing, "Walz and fellow Democrats are being asked to explain how so much money was stolen on their watch."

However, ABC’s "World News Tonight," NBC’s "Nightly News" and "CBS Evening News" have not mentioned Walz by name in the past week, according to a search of transcripts using Grabien Media.

The terms "Somali" and "Somalian" were also not used on any of the three network newscasts.

ABC News, NBC News and CBS News did not immediately respond when asked by Fox News Digital why their evening newscasts skipped the story.

NewsBusters referred to it as an "omission" and accused the networks of suppressing the scandal.

"Another day, another massive story of blue-state political malfeasance hidden by the elitist media nightly news," NewsBusters analyst Jorge Bonilla said in a report for the conservative media watchdog. "This time, there is not a peep about the exploding welfare scandal currently engulfing the state of Minnesota — which directly implicates some of its senior-most elected leaders."

I am trying.

A student at the University of Oklahoma is speaking out after she received a zero on an opinion-based essay in which she cited the Bible. The teaching assistant, who identifies as transgender, called the essay "offensive."

"I was told to give my opinion on gender stereotypes and gender norms. So that's what I did," Samantha Fulnecky, who wrote the essay, said on "The Will Cain Show" Tuesday.

"I didn't think that was me needing to be brave or have courage," she added.

In her essay, Fulnecky argued that her religious beliefs support traditional gender norms and that such norms should be reinforced rather than eliminated.

"I talked about the Bible and what God says about gender norms and about how there are two genders," Fulnecky said.

"The response I got back was a zero on that paper and the TA saying that my writing was offensive and that I needed more empathy."

The paper was graded by graduate teaching assistant Mel Curth, who uses she/they pronouns. Curth argued that the zero had nothing to do with Fulnecky’s beliefs but with a lack of required evidence and connections to the article.

"Please note that I am not deducting points because you have certain beliefs," Curth wrote, "but instead I am deducting point [sic] for you posting a reaction paper that does not answer the questions for this assignment, contradicts itself, heavily uses personal ideology over empirical evidence in a scientific class, and is at times offensive."
