Chris Smith) (OCEAN COUNTY, NJ) (Wednesday, DECEMBER 11,2024)(CNBNews)-During a recent interview on Fox News, New Jersey Representative Chris Smith (R-4th District) discussed concerns regarding drones the size of SUVs. He expressed confusion over why the United States has not taken decisive action to intercept these drones. Smith suggested that either China or Russia could be responsible for their presence. He stated, "If we were to shoot down one or more of these aircraft, we could thoroughly examine them to uncover who is responsible. Our military capabilities enable us to do just that," emphasizing the urgent need for a response to this unprecedented aerial activity. Smith mentioned that Robert Wheeler, the FBI Assistant Director of the Critical Incident Response Group, insisted that...

In response to 16,000 children in South Jersey losing health insurance coverage last year, the Board of Commissioners, the Camden Coalition and Mayor Victor Carstarphen have partnered with several local organizations to launch the Cover All Kids initiative. This campaign aims to raise awareness and enroll as many children as possible who are eligible for free or affordable government health insurance. Last year, as pandemic-related programs wound down, people on NJ FamilyCare/Medicaid were required to re-enroll and have their eligibility redetermined. The Camden Coalition’s redetermination data shows that a total of 16,000 children were terminated in the three-month period between September and November 2023 and 60% of them were terminated for administrative reasons, such as missing paperwork, not because they were found to be ineligible. In Camden City alone, 3,000 children were terminated from Medicaid in the six-month period between June and November 2023. “Every family should have access to...

Dorothy Philbin | CNBNews Columnist Trace Gallagher, a Fox News anchor, presented a story on December 5, 2023, in which the reporter presented evidence that our (America) students' math scores are now the lowest ever. It has been known for years that our students' English/Reading scores have been declining. Yet, we in New Jersey continue to pay extremely high school taxes. What are we getting for those tax dollars? CNBNews graphic file The state mandates much of the curriculum based on political ideologies. Here's an idea.

CDF Prison Officials Cited for Unsanitary Conditions U.S. marshal, Lamont J. Ruffin, who ordered the October 18-23 inspection, listed some of the findings in a Nov. 1 letter to Quincy L. Booth, the D.C. corrections director. In parts of the jail, water “had been shut off for days” as punishment, creating an “overpowering” stench from “standing human sewage” in the toilets of many cells, Ruffin wrote. “Hot meals” were “served cold and congealed”; some inmates had “observable injuries” for which no documentation was available; and “evidence of drug use was pervasive,” including the “widespread” odor of marijuana. Staff members were “observed antagonizing detainees,” telling them not to cooperate with the inspection, Ruffin said, while jail supervisors “appeared unaware or uninterested in any of these issues.” ++++ Rep.

(Gloucestercitynews.net)(June 4, 2020)--There are quite some similarities between digestive enzymes and probiotics. They carry out functions that are quite complementary.

It’s a unit that’s always there for you when you’re down, struggling at work, or just in need of some socialization.

RELATED: CNBNEWS POINT OF VIEW by Bill Cleary CHEER-To the new owner of the former Red Mill Tavern building, 500 unit block of South Broadway, Gloucester City for taking that run down property and fixing it up. A big improvement! Thank you for showing Community Pride. JEER-The 2010-11 Gloucester City School District budget totaled $38.8 million. The 2011-12 budget was $45 million and the 2012-13 budget totals almost $48 million or approximately $10 million more than two years ago. Yet school enrollment, around 2000 students, has remained the same for a number years. So why does the budget continue to climb? Those in charge will point to the fact that City residents are only paying a small portion of the school budget. For example this year because of state and federal monies the estimated amount is $18 million. “Why should any City resident complain? “It is not coming out of...
