Breaking Local News ReportMarch 4, 20250

TRENTON, NJ — White House border czar Tom Homan said Tuesday that the administration needs additional funding for immigration enforcement and criticized sanctuary cities for limiting cooperation with federal authorities. Homan said sanctuary states like New Jersey are putting migrants and citizens in harm’s way by locking immigration officials out of jails, forcing them to take their enforcement efforts into the streets. Homan said the Department of Homeland Security is operating at full capacity but requires more resources. “We’re hitting on all cylinders but we need more money to do more,” he said. Homan announced the opening of a 1,000

Phil Murphy Wants to Help You, By Forcing You to Buy an Electric Car

Breaking Local News ReportFebruary 21, 20250

TRENTON, NJ—New Jersey Governor Phil Murphy is only looking out for your interests and those of your children and grandchildren. That’s why he is forcing you to buy an EV by 2035. Governor Murphy is also protecting himself and his staff by purchasing a brand new fleet of supersized, gas-guzzling SUVs. That irony wasn’t lost with the governor’s 2035 gasoline-powered car ban. Eric Degessero of the Fuel Merchants Association of New Jersey challenged the state’s electric vehicle mandate during last year’s ACC II public hearing, questioning the contrast between Governor Phil Murphy’s personal transportation choices and the impending requirements for

New Jersey Forcing Small Towns to Build Massive Low Income Housing Projects, While Giving Cities a Pass

Breaking Local News ReportJanuary 3, 20250

TRENTON, NJ – New Jersey is forcing rural and suburban towns to build high-density development to accommodate a housing crisis, caused in part by the influx of hundreds of thousands of illegal migrants living in New Jersey. There’s just one problem with the state’s mandate. It forces small towns to build massive low-income, affordable housing complexes but does not require new construction where it’s most needed, in the state’s urban centers. Senator Joe Pennacchio (R-26) expressed strong opposition to a recent court decision allowing the continued implementation of New Jersey’s state-mandated housing law. This decision comes as a case challenging

Queens Resident Faces Multiple Charges in Human Trafficking Case

**Queens, NY** – Queens District Attorney Melinda Katz announced that Valezka Echeverrias has been arraigned on charges of sex trafficking and other crimes for allegedly coercing a transgender woman into prostitution on Roosevelt Avenue and demanding weekly payments. When the victim wished to cease these activities, Echeverrias reportedly threatened her with a knife to extort money. Additional charges in the indictment include grand larceny, robbery, and extortion involving two victims, during which Echeverrias allegedly used a knife to further intimidate them and steal their phones.

District Attorney Katz emphasized the severity of the allegations, noting the use of threats to exploit one victim and terrorize another for personal gain. She highlighted the creation of the Human Trafficking Bureau as part of the ongoing effort to combat such abuses. Echeverrias, a 30-year-old resident of Jackson Heights, is charged with 24 crimes, including four counts of sex trafficking, grand larceny, coercion, promoting prostitution, robbery, menacing, criminal mischief, and criminal contempt.

Supreme Court Justice Peter Vallone has remanded Echeverrias and ordered her to appear in court on December

Breaking Local News ReportOctober 31, 20240

TRENTON, NJ – There’s no treat in the ongoing federal inflation trick. New Jersey families cut back their Halloween candy spending significantly this year. This Halloween, many Americans are facing a frightening reality—candy prices are soaring to heights scarier than the costumed ghouls at your door. With inflation creeping into the candy aisle, people are starting to re-evaluate their trick-or-treat budgets. Instead of stacking up on full-sized candy bars, they’re reaching for miniatures (or maybe hoping the kids don’t notice an increase in granola bars and apples). According to the National Confectioners Association, the cost of chocolate has jumped nearly

The Daily CallerMay 15, 20240

Biden made the remark during a Tuesday speech about his administration’s decision to significantly bolster tariffs against Chinese products including steel, semiconductor chips and EV batteries.
