Inflation soars as prices spike 6.8 percent, most in 39 years | New York Post

News- US

http://youtu.be/7pnH4b54U5c Prices spiked a whopping 6.8 percent in November, compared with the same time last year — the fastest acceleration of inflation the country has seen in 39 years, the feds announced Friday. It’s the highest year-over-year reading of the Labor Department’s Consumer Price Index, which measures a basket of goods and services as well as energy and food costs, since 1982, when the country saw surging inflation that sparked year-over-year spikes as high as more than 14 percent. That means inflation is now accelerating at the highest pace many Americans have seen in their lifetimes. #Inflation #Economy #NewYorkPost The New York Post is your source for breaking news, news about New York, sports, business, entertainment, opinion, real estate, culture, fashion, and mo...

Jussie Smollett guilty of staging race-baiting hate attack to boost career | New York Post

News- US

http://youtu.be/LyQLVBJ2Byo Nearly three years after he claimed two Trump-loving bigots beat him up, tied a noose around his neck and doused him in bleach, Jussie Smollett was convicted Thursday of staging a hate crime in a misbegotten bid to raise his public profile. Twelve jurors in Chicago criminal court found the disgraced actor guilty of five of six counts of felony disorderly conduct for filing a false police report following testimony from 13 witnesses and more than nine hours of deliberation. As the jurors read out the verdict, Smollett, 39, stood huddled with his attorneys and kept his eyes trained on the panelists, remaining stoic as a phalanx of family members, who watched the eight-day trial from the front row of the gallery, sat frozen. #JussieSmollett #Guilty #NewYorkPo...

African reporter presses Psaki on ‘racist’ Omicron variant travel ban | New York Post

News- US

http://youtu.be/wXwfJsVBVO0 White House press secretary Jen Psaki was forced to defend President Biden’s eight-country southern Africa travel restrictions Thursday when an African journalist suggested they were “racist” because the Omicron variant of COVID-19 has now been confirmed in 57 countries. Simon Ateba of Today News Africa raised the point during the daily White House briefing — interrupting Psaki’s attempt to call on Brazilian journalist Raquel Krähenbühl. “Can we let Raquel? Simon, Simon, Simon, Simon, I’m trying to answer your question and then I’m gonna go to Raquel,” Psaki said as Ateba interrupted. “Simon, we’re evaluating every single day,” she added. “We don’t want these to be permanent measures. And, and it is something that the president is getting updates from his CO...

Kyle Rittenhouse wants to ‘sit down’ with Biden over ‘white supremacist’ claim | New York Post

News- US

http://youtu.be/5Ub4XqLgZGo Kyle Rittenhouse said he wants a showdown with President Biden to put him right for branding the teen a “white supremacist.” The 18-year-old cleared Kenosha gunman was asked by conservative commentator Glenn Beck in a nearly hour-long interview if the commander-in-chief had ever called him “to apologize.” “He hasn’t,” Rittenhouse told Beck in his show on The Blaze. “I would like to sit down with the president and have a conversation with him and tell him the facts of what happened,” insisted the teen. Biden had used a photo of Rittenhouse brandishing the AR-15 he used to defend himself at Wisconsin Black Lives Matter riots in August last year in a presidential campaign push the following month. “There’s no other way to put it: the President of the United S...

Attorney General Letitia James drops out of New York governor race | New York Post

News- US

http://youtu.be/guGFHmcAJAU State Attorney General Letitia James dropped out of the race for governor on Thursday and said she’ll instead seek a second term as New York’s chief law-enforcement official. “I have come to the conclusion that I must continue my work as attorney general,” James said in a prepared statement. “There are a number of important investigations and cases that are underway, and I intend to finish the job. I am running for re-election to complete the work New Yorkers elected me to do.” The move followed heavy criticism from former Gov. Andrew Cuomo that James’ investigation of sexual harassment allegations against him was politically motivated. Cuomo resigned in August, one week after James — using outside investigators — released a report that accused him of haras...

Ex-reality TV star Josh Duggar found guilty in child pornography trial | New York Post

News- US

http://youtu.be/6cjcBzplAnM Josh Duggar is staring down 20 years in prison after an Arkansas jury on Thursday found him guilty of receiving and possessing child porn. Duggar was found guilty after seven hours of deliberation following a six-day trial, according to NBC’s Fayetteville station KNWA. He is also expected to have to pay fines of up to $250,000 for each charge. TLC canceled the Duggar family’s show, “19 Kids and Counting,” after reports surfaced that Josh Duggar had molested five girls, including his sisters, when he was a minor. TLC then canceled a spin-off after Duggar was arrested over child porn in April this year. The defense argued that someone else had downloaded the child porn that was discovered on Duggar’s work computer, according to the Associated Press. #JoshDu...

Jeffrey Epstein and Ghislaine Maxwell pictured lounging in Queen Elizabeth’s estate | New York Post

News- US

http://youtu.be/aNo_5YMZhcE A stunning new photo shows pedophile Jeffrey Epstein lounging with alleged madam Ghislaine Maxwell in what appears to be Queen Elizabeth II’s private Scottish getaway. The undated image — part of a trove of evidence recovered from Epstein’s properties and presented this week at Maxwell’s sex-trafficking trial — is believed to be from 1999, when the pair were invited to the Queen’s Balmoral estate by disgraced son Prince Andrew, the BBC said. It shows the casually dressed pair with slight smiles and in younger days, with media heiress Maxwell leaning against her long-term lover, with her right arm affectionately resting on his legs. The pair posed in what appears to be the exact spot where other images show Britain’s 95-year-old monarch smiling and eating mea...

News- US

http://youtu.be/laSFqxh-hdE One of Ghislaine Maxwell’s accusers claimed she once saw a photo of the British socialite “nude and pregnant” inside of Jeffrey Epstein’s Florida mansion. The woman, who testified using only her first name, Carolyn, was asked by defense attorneys at Maxwell’s federal sex-trafficking trial in Manhattan about statements she’d previously made to prosecutors. “One of your memories about Ms. Maxwell is you claim that you saw a photograph of her in Epstein’s house, pregnant. Correct?” lawyer Jeffrey Pagliuca asked Tuesday, referring to Epstein’s Palm Beach estate. “Nude and pregnant laying on the –” Carolyn began to respond — at which point Pagliuca interjected, “And pregnant.” “Yes.

Scott Peterson resentenced to life in prison for pregnant wife Laci’s killing | New York Post

News- US

http://youtu.be/gtQQ_4pJjkY The family of Laci Peterson — who was brutally murdered by her husband, Scott Peterson, at eight months pregnant — faced her killer for the first time in almost 20 years during his resentencing to life in prison without parole Wednesday, saying he is the one who deserved to die. Scott Peterson was back in court over the 2002 slayings of his wife and unborn son after the California Supreme Court overturned his death penalty sentence last year. “Laci’s dead, Scott, because she loved you, and she trusted you,” her mother, Sharon Rocha, said on the stand. Wednesday’s hearing followed the high court’s ruling that the jury wasn’t correctly screened for opinions on capital punishment when convicting Peterson. Judge Anne-Christine Massullo resentenced Peterson to li...

De Blasio admits to mishandling press, acting in ‘off-putting’ manner | New York Post

News- US

http://youtu.be/Pm6BLo9ERkA Mayor Bill de Blasio admitted Wednesday that he erred while interacting with the New York media the past eight years, conceding he often acted in an “off-putting” manner while pleading his case to reporters. “I’ll be confessional and say, I think when there’s something wrong, you can’t say, ‘Oh, it’s somebody else,’ right,” the often combative mayor said. “I mean, there’s something wrong and it has been something wrong in my relationship with the media. That’s obviously, to some extent, on me,” he said during a virtual press conference, when asked if he holds any regrets about his relationship with journalists during his time in office. “As always, it takes two to tango, but that’s got to be to some extent on me.” The lame-duck mayor, who often bristles at ...

Kyle Rittenhouse breaks silence over LeBron James’ jab | New York Post

News- US

http://youtu.be/PhMjfsP7opo Kyle Rittenhouse, 18, told a news outlet in a recent interview, “F—k you, LeBron” after the basketball star mocked his tearful testimony on Twitter, suggesting that the emotional display was an act, according to a news report. The teen was acquitted last month on all counts including homicide for using an AR-15-style rifle in self-defense to fatally shoot two men and wound another amid protests and riots in Kenosha, Wisconsin, in 2020. Rittenhouse, then 17, was legally allowed to possess the weapon under Wisconsin law. He took the witness stand and sobbed as he recalled the night of the shooting, prompting the judge to call a recess. The Los Angeles Laker fired off a snarky tweet on Nov. 10. “What tears????? I didn’t see one. Man knock it off! That boy ate s...

Capitol Police watchdog warns more change needed after Jan. 6 riot | New York Post

News- US

http://youtu.be/LJS4znU5QIU The US Capitol Police inspector general told lawmakers Tuesday that the department has not made needed changes in the aftermath of the deadly riot by Trump supporters on Jan. 6. Michael Bolton testified at an oversight hearing of the Senate Rules Committee that the Capitol Police “still lacks the overall training infrastructure to meet the needs of the department, the level of intelligence gathering and expertise needed, and an overall cultural change needed to move the department into a protective agency as opposed to a traditional police department.” Bolton testified 11 months and one day after the riot, which led to the deaths of five people — including Capitol Police officer Brian Sicknick — and nearly eight months after he issued the first in a series of...

White House ‘working behind the scenes’ with media to get positive coverage | New York Post

News- US

http://youtu.be/8ElvNzrhnXE The White House has been secretly begging news organizations to give “favorable” coverage to President Biden rather than focusing on his failings, according to a report. The administration is “not happy” with the unflattering headlines and coverage of the supply-chain disaster and handling of the economy — and so “has been working behind the scenes trying to reshape coverage in its favor,” CNN’s Reliable Sources said. Senior White House and administration officials “have been briefing major newsrooms over the past week,” a source told the outlet’s media reporter Oliver Darcy.

Racy photos show Ghislaine Maxwell rubbing Jeffrey Epstein’s feet on his jet | New York Post

News- US

http://youtu.be/8VWuasRkz3c Ghislaine Maxwell was once photographed rubbing Jeffrey Epstein’s feet on what appears to be his private jet — with her breasts spilling out of her skimpy top, according to new evidence released by federal prosecutors Wednesday. The raunchy photos — entered into evidence on Tuesday — were recovered during an FBI raid at Epstein’s Upper East Side mansion in 2019, FBI analyst Kimberly Meder testified. Two of the photos show Maxwell planting a kiss on Epstein’s cheek, including one that shows them in front of a beach and another on what appears to be a European street. Other snaps show Epstein with his arm around Maxwell. One shows him holding her while he’s wearing what appears to be a red skiing outfit and another shows him with his arm wrapped around her w...

Joe Buck defends helmet catch call against angry Giants fans | New York Post

The Fox play-by-play man defended his call of David Tyree’s helmet catch — which the Giants fan base has long contended to be underwhelming — on Monday night’s “Manningcast.” It was a fitting topic of conversation given the man who threw the pass — Eli Manning — was one of the hosts, while the team he threw it against — the Patriots — were playing on “Monday Night Football.” “When you’re up there and you know you’re doing the game for 100 million people, you’ve to be really sure,” Buck said of the famous Super Bowl XLII play that saved the Giants’ game-winning drive in the 17-14 victory over an undefeated Patriots juggernaut. #JoeBuck #HelmetCatch #NewYorkPostSports The New York Post ...
