The New York Sun

The New York Sun was a daily newspaper that circulated in Manhattan from 2002 until 2008. It launched on April 16, 2002, taking on the name, slogan, and design of an older publication, The Sun (1833–1950). This made it the first general-interest broadsheet to be established in New York City in many years. Its opinion section gained significance as a leading space for conservative perspectives in the nation. Since 2009, The Sun has transitioned to an online-only format, focusing on political and economic commentary along with some arts-related content.

‘This Is Not a Protest’: Tasers Deployed as Republicans on Break Face Constituents Angry About the News From Washington

Raucous town halls are back as members of Congress spend two weeks back in their districts answering for the actions of the Trump administration — and the inaction of Congress — during the first real lawmaking break of the second Trump administration. The events are eerily similar to the town hall protests organized by Tea Party activists against the Democrats in 2009 and 2010 — events that helped galvanize support for the GOP and hand them 63 House seats in the following election.
