SOMETIMES, Steven Spielberg’s condo in Trump Tower beats out Chappaqua for Hillary Rodham Clinton.

The first lady has overnighted several times at the Oscar-winning director’s lavish home on Fifth Avenue instead of schlepping back to her house in Westchester.

A Trump Tower resident tipped off Campaign Buzz that Hillary has spent several nights in Spielberg’s three-bedroom, multimillion-dollar home, which features stunning views of Central Park.

Spielberg spokesman Andy Spahn confirmed that Hillary has stayed in the condo at least “two or three times” and that she’s also gone there to rest during the day when there’s rare campaign downtime.

“They’ve been friends for seven or eight years,” said Spahn, adding that Spielberg has never been at his home when Clinton borrowed the apartment.

Spielberg’s place is not the only Manhattan apartment that Hillary has borrowed, but tight-lipped Clinton aides refused to discuss the Trump condo or the location of any of her other crash pads.

Rick Lazio is about to get some more “gravitas.”

Moving to shed any lingering perception that he’s less than a heavyweight, Lazio on Thursday is set to deliver a major speech to the respected Council on Foreign Relations.

The Republican Senate candidate will be following in some big footsteps at the think tank, including Henry Kissinger, George Soros, Bill Gates, Madeleine Albright, Kofi Annan – and even Bill Clinton.

Lazio’s aides wouldn’t reveal the speech’s specifics.

Hillary is making big news – in Australia.

The first lady has raised eyebrows Down Under by writing to Australian officials last week demanding they take action against several suspected ex-Nazis living in the country.

“Hillary Clinton has become involved in a campaign to embarrass Australia during the Olympics,” reads the lead paragraph of an article in the Herald Sun newspaper, one of the country’s largest publications.

New York Jewish officials said they are grateful Clinton lent her support to an effort to draw world attention to four former Nazi officers who are being protected by the Australian government, including suspected Latvian death-squad member Konrads Kalejs.

“I hope the Australian government will take action so that international criminals like Mr. Kalejs will be brought to justice and forced to pay for their crimes,” the first lady wrote to Rabbi Zev Friedman, of the Maimonides HS on Long Island, who is heading up the campaign to pressure Australia.

Lazio had the chance last weekend to make a personal pitch for his plan to eliminate the “marriage tax” to people who might care about it most – newlyweds.

During a firefighters parade through Tarrytown, Lazio passed by a church where a wedding was about to begin and spotted the bride and groom standing outside with their wedding party.

“We’re gonna take care of the ‘marriage penalty,’ so don’t worry about that,” Lazio told the surprised-looking bride and groom, who must have had other things on their minds beside the federal tax code.
