http://youtu.be/95gMLrZFQNQ Amid a surge in some New York City violent crime, Wall Street bigwigs continue to encourage younger staffers to come into the office — but to do so with caution. At Bank of America, senior executives have quietly encouraged younger employees to “dress down” to attract less attention as they make their way to B of A’s tower at 1 Bryant Park. #BankOfAmerica #NYC #Crime These execs have told their staffers that dressing up, or wearing anything with a Bank of America logo, could make them a target. One bank employee told On The Money he is on high alert after he spotted someone with a knife near the office during a recent trek to the Manhattan workplace.

http://youtu.be/GPCW5FQsk2w A Minnesota resident who recently traveled to New York City tested positive for the Omicron variant of COVID-19, officials announced Thursday. The fully vaccinated man experienced “mild symptoms” of the virus on Nov. 22 and was tested two days later, after attending an anime convention at the Javits Center on Manhattan’s West Side from Nov. 19 to Nov. 21, according to the Minnesota Department of Health. The Hennepin County resident’s COVID-19 symptoms have “resolved,” the health department said. The news comes after White House chief medical adviser Dr. Anthony Fauci and the Center for Disease Control announced Monday that the first known US case of the Omicron variant — to which existing vaccines likely provide a degree of protection — had been found in San...

http://youtu.be/DvzHnVG_5jI The World Health Organization believes the existing COVID-19 vaccines will offer protection against severe cases of the new Omicron variant, the group’s chief scientist said Wednesday. “Vaccines are likely to have some protection,” Soumya Swaminathan said during a press conference. “We still need to find out if there is a loss on protection but we think vaccines will still protect against severe disease as they have against the other variants,” the expert added. Maria van Kerkhove, WHO’s technical lead on COVID-19, told reporters that the agency expects to have more information about the transmissibility of the emerging variant within days, according to Reuters. That is faster than the “weeks” the WHO last week predicted it would take to assess the data ava...

http://youtu.be/wfz4W74XQGE Kyle Rittenhouse is destroying the AR-15 he used during his deadly shooting in Kenosha, Wisconsin. The 18-year-old cleared gunman told “The Charlie Kirk Show” on Tuesday that the weapon he used to defend himself at Black Lives Matter riots is “being destroyed right now.” “We don’t want anything to do with that,” said Rittenhouse, who broke down at his trial last month as he recalled having to use it to kill two men and injure another while under attack. Rittenhouse made his revelation after the conservative podcast showed pictures of the controversial moment Assistant District Attorney Thomas Binger raised the weapon in court with his finger on the trigger. Jokingly asked if the prosecutor was “threatening the jury,” Rittenhouse initially quipped, “Pretty m...

http://youtu.be/Lgssup1tKxI NASA has warned that a giant asteroid bigger than the Eiffel Tower will break into Earth’s orbit in just over a week. The 1,082-foot space rock is heading our way and should skim past us on December 11. NASA has its eye on Asteroid 4660 Nereus because it’s well over 492 feet long and will come within 4.6 million miles of Earth. That puts it in the “potentially hazardous” category. There’s no need to panic, though, as Asteroid Nereus isn’t expected to impact Earth. If all goes well, it should shoot past our planet at 14,700 miles per hour. NASA is expecting the space rock to stay 2.4 million miles away from us. #Asteroid #Earth #Space The New York Post is your source for breaking news, news about New York, sports, business, entertainment, opinion, real e...

The officer, Ryan Remington, was on assignment at the Walmart in Tucson on Monday when an employee alerted him about 6 p.m. that a customer in a motorized wheelchair had swiped a toolbox, KGUN reported.

The chief said Remington, a four-year member ...

http://youtu.be/jo63qAMKM7Q Elizabeth Holmes — the disgraced founder of defunct blood-testing startup Theranos — cried on the stand Monday as she testified about being raped as a student and allegedly abused by her ex-boyfriend and former business partner. The 37-year-old entrepreneur testified that being raped while a student at Stanford University pushed her to drop out of school and throw herself into building the company. When she later started dating Sunny Balwani, her co-defendant and former Theranos COO who’s being tried separately, “he said I was safe now that I had met him,” Holmes testified as part of her own defense in her fraud trial. But, she went on, Balwani allegedly perpetuated a cycle of abuse in which he controlled all aspects of Holmes’ life and the way she ran Thera...

http://youtu.be/CSZCycbIJbI Leftist students at Arizona State University are campaigning to get Kyle Rittenhouse kicked out of his studies — calling him a racist, “blood-thirsty murderer” even though the teen was acquitted of all charges. Four groups led by Students for Socialism are behind a rally planned for Wednesday to boot Rittenhouse, 18, who revealed that he was an online student at the Tucson school and would like to live a quiet life on campus. “KILLER OFF CAMPUS,” reads the flyer, calling for the university to “protect students from a violent, blood-thirsty murderer.” A list of four demands includes getting the 18-year-old cleared killer withdrawn from ASU, as well as for the school to “release a statement against white supremacy and racist murderer Kyle Rittenhouse.” #Arizo...

http://youtu.be/2WOdrmMLwjg President Biden and his family attended Nantucket’s annual Christmas tree lighting festival Friday after celebrating Thanksgiving at a billionaire pal’s secluded island retreat. The public event wasn’t on Biden’s public schedule, but first lady Jill Biden spilled the beans to Coast Guard members Thursday — just after a Nantucket man gave Biden’s motorcade a one-finger salute. The first family was spotted singing along to holiday tunes including “Jingle Bells” and “Oh Christmas Tree” after a community countdown from 10 to light the tree, according to a pool report. The president greeted the town crier, who was outfitted in a top hat and coat with tails, before returning to billionaire David Rubenstein’s compound. #Bidens #Nantucket #Thanksgiving The New Yo...

http://youtu.be/QJI1M4_x77w Darrell Brooks, the suspect in the deadly Christmas parade attack in Waukesha, Wisconsin, was captured in a glaring new mugshot ahead of his first court appearance Tuesday on charges of intentional homicide. The 39-year-old bearded suspect is seen in dreadlocks and wearing a green jail vest in the wide-eyed mug, which was taken Tuesday morning.

http://youtu.be/Y2Hq_aRZ4c4 Protesters upset over the acquittal of Kyle Rittenhouse marched in Kenosha on Sunday — in the presence of a Second Amendment-supporting father-daughter duo armed with AR-15s that they said were to protect the demonstrators. “We just do security for different groups. We’re doing a favor for them,” Erick Jordan, 50, told The Post while walking alongside his 16-year-old daughter, Jade. Jordan said he’d been training Jade to use firearms since she was 4 but only let her touch a weapon once she was 14. He said they were protecting a restaurant and two parking lots in the area on the night Rittenhouse shot three people, including two fatally, amid protests over police conduct. #AR-15 #KyleRittenhouse #NewYorkPost The New York Post is your source for breaking news...
