57% of New York third graders FAILED their state reading tests, per new NY State Education Department data. So where is the $40,000 per student going? New York City spends upwards of $40,000 per student per year (The Gateway Pundit) — the highest school spending in the nation (NY Post) — while fifth-grade reading proficiency plunged 14 points in a single year.

Also in today's episode: Texas Senate candidate James Talarico caught on tape telling an interviewer his church housed an undocumented family who were close to being deported by ICE — "Christianity is just another word for causing trouble," in his own words (Fox News Digital). Netanyahu draws his hardest line yet on the 15-point Gaza plan: "As long as I am prime minister, no Palestinian state will be established" (UPI). And a night of tragedy in New York Harbor, in the shadow of the Statue of Liberty.
Six stories. Seven o'clock. The truth starts now.
