News- US

http://youtu.be/6jk00chJa30 A handicapped Denver councilman says he was left humiliated after being forced to crawl onto a stage to take part in an election debate because the venue hosting the event did not have a ramp. Councilman Chris Hinds, who represents Denver’s 10th District, has been using a wheelchair since 2008, when he was involved in a crash that paralyzed him from the chest down. He was elected to public office in 2019 and is seeking re-election to a second term. On Monday night, Hinds arrived at Cleo Parker Robinson Dance Theater in Denver to face off against his three challengers in a debate, only to discover that the stage was not wheelchair-accessible. In an interview with local news outlet Denverite, Hinds said a staffer at the venue told him they were not aware that...

CNN’s Don Lemon, 56, claims Nikki Haley, 51, ‘isn’t in her prime’ | New York Post

News- US

http://youtu.be/s632y3ffIkw “CNN This Morning” co-host Don Lemon caused some on-air tension and triggered an uproar on social media Thursday after claiming GOP presidential candidate Nikki Haley was not “in her prime” — and should not comment on the age of other politicians. Lemon, 56, was responding to Haley, 51, calling for mental competency tests for politicians over the age of 75 in her presidential campaign kickoff speech Wednesday. “This whole talk about age makes me uncomfortable,” Lemon began. “I think it’s the wrong road to go down. She says people, you know, politicians are suddenly not in their prime. Nikki Haley isn’t in her prime.” To the bewilderment of co-hosts Poppy Harlow and Kaitlan Collins, Lemon then said: “A woman is considered to be in their prime in [their] 20s a...

Biden says 3 UFOs shot down after spy balloon not related to China program | New York Post

News- US

http://youtu.be/960INh7qBCc President Biden told Americans on Thursday there was no evidence that a trio of unidentified flying objects shot down following the downing of a Chinese spy balloon were nefarious — in his first comments on the unprecedented military action in North American airspace after five full days of silence. “We don’t yet know exactly what these three objects were,” Biden said of the devices shot down off the Alaskan coast, over Canada’s Yukon Territory and over Lake Huron. “But nothing, nothing right now suggests they were related to China’s spy balloon program, or that they were surveillance vehicles from any other country. The intelligence community’s current assessment is that these three objects are most likely balloons tied to private companies, recreational or ...

News- US

http://youtu.be/_9e--c5NyjU Don Lemon was conspicuously absent from “CNN This Morning” on Friday just 24 hours after he put his foot in his mouth with a sexist comment about 51-year-old Nikki Haley being “not in her prime” — prompting his co-host, Poppy Harlow, to walk off the set. Friday morning’s awkward broadcast started with a short clip featuring Harlow, who is on location in Salt Lake City where she is covering NBA All-Star weekend festivities, interviewing TNT’s star basketball commentators Charles Barkley, Shaquille O’Neal, and Kenny Smith. The camera then panned to co-host Kaitlan Collins, who was seated next to Audie Cornish, the former National Public Radio journalist who was sitting in for the 56-year-old Lemon. “Don has the day off,” Collins said at the top of the broadcas...

News- US

http://youtu.be/E2470r_629Y President Biden stormed out of a press availability Thursday afternoon when asked if his ability to deal with China was “compromised” by his family’s business interests — complaining journalists were not being “polite” and telling them to “give me a break” before walking away. Republicans say Biden can’t properly confront China on issues ranging from fentanyl and COVID-19 origins to a surveillance balloon that traversed US airspace this month because of his family’s financial links to Chinese state entities. “Is your ability to deal with China compromised by your family’s business relationships in China, President Biden?” a reporter for The Post asked following a seven-minute address on the Chinese balloon and the subsequent shoot-down of three yet-to-be-iden...

http://youtu.be/5Z36Aig-hHQ Disturbing video shows what appears to be a contaminated creek in East Palestine, Ohio, after the recent derailment of a train there carrying toxic materials. “Even MORE proof that the EPA is LYING to the people of East Palestine,” journalist Nick Sortor wrote on Twitter alongside footage he posted of a woman tossing a small log into the water, causing an oily sheen to rise to the surface.

News- US

http://youtu.be/wiG77FP2duo Spotify is denying a report that Joe Rogan could bolt the streaming giant this year after his contract expires.

http://youtu.be/5LoCk1gyx60 Pancreatic cancer is rising in the US, but rates are rising faster in young women — particularly black women. A report published in the peer-reviewed journal Gastroenterology found that rates of pancreatic cancer in women age 55 and younger have risen by 2.4% in comparison to men the same age, with scientists calling for more research into the alarming trend. “There’s a need to understand these trends, and to make changes today so this doesn’t affect women disproportionately in the future,” senior author of the study Dr. Srinivas Gaddam said in the press release. The figures were even more concerning for black women, with the rates 2.23% higher than in young black men.
