http://youtu.be/qVTmkT3BlW8 Sen. Josh Hawley grilled Homeland Security Secretary Alejandro Mayorkas on the Biden administration’s efforts to stem the flow of illegal immigrants and whether it accepts responsibility for the humanitarian crisis created by the 15,000 Haitian migrants who massed near a border town in Texas. Hawley (R-Mo.) pointed out that for the second straight month, in July and August, US Customs and Border Protection officials encountered more than 200,000 illegal immigrants and he asked Mayorkas if the administration’s plan to curb the surge was working. #JoshHawley #AlejandroMayorkas #BorderCrisis The New York Post is your source for breaking news, news about New York, sports, business, entertainment, opinion, real estate, culture, fashion, and more.

http://youtu.be/dp1aUSX9xR8 A Texas restaurant tossed out a couple who wore face coverings to protect their immunocompromised 4-month-old son — and its owner is defending the move, saying, “I don’t want masks in here.” Natalie Wester and her husband went to Hang Time Bar & Grill in Rowlett earlier this month with some friends to let loose, but the new parents decided to mask up out of an abundance of caution due to their at-risk child at home, who has cystic fibrosis, KTVT reported. “If you’ve ever been new parents, having those couple of hours out like once or twice a month is so important for your mental health,” Wester told the station Saturday. But hopes of a relaxing, stress-free outing were dashed when a waitress told the fully vaccinated couple they’d need to take off their ...

http://youtu.be/oxoKhdRcTd4 Pressed on the Biden administration’s decision not to require coronavirus vaccines or negative COVID-19 tests for people illegally crossing the southern border, White House Press Secretary Jen Psaki insisted Monday the refugees are “not intending to stay here for a lengthy period of time.” In recent days, thousands of migrants from Haiti and other countries have flooded the southern border seeking permanent asylum in the US. Many reached a processing bottleneck in Del Rio, Texas, last week, leaving over 12,000 migrants to camp under a bridge, sparking coronavirus and security threat concerns among local and state leaders. #Psaki #COVID #Immigrants The New York Post is your source for breaking news, news about New York, sports, business, entertainment, opi...

http://youtu.be/CjkRKiCisjM Former “America’s Most Wanted” host John Walsh said he was “terrified” when he first saw bodycam footage of Gabby Petito’s fight with Brian Laundrie — calling it “classic domestic abuse.” The famed citizen crimefighter told CNN on Monday night that he was horrified watching the footage even before “chilling” new details indicated a 911 caller saw Laundrie “slapping” his girlfriend, whose remains are believed to have been found in Wyoming on Sunday. #GabbyPetito #BrianLaundrie #JohnWalsh The New York Post is your source for breaking news, news about New York, sports, business, entertainment, opinion, real estate, culture, fashion, and more.

http://youtu.be/Gq_kB3FpjzA The Dow dropped more than 800 points, adding to three straight weeks of losses, as fears over China’s debt-ridden property market helped spark a global selloff. The Dow Jones industrial average was recently off 814 points, or over 2.4 percent, in early afternoon trading Monday. The S&P 500 fell 2.1 percent — on pace for its worst day since mid-May — while the Nasdaq tumbled 2.6 percent. Embattled developer China Evergrande Group has warned investors of cash-flow problems and that it may default on its debt obligations, which analysts at UBS have pegged at about 6.5 percent of the total debt held by China’s property sector. A default of that size could spill over into other sectors and hit companies in other countries, analysts said. In particular, invest...

http://youtu.be/YFr24COkSXM Brian Laundrie’s sister has shared one of her last text messages with Gabby Petito — as well as postcards the Long Island native sent the woman’s children during her fateful cross-country trip with her boyfriend. WABC reporter Kristin Thorne posted on Twitter a screen grab Cassie Laundrie shared during her interview with “Good Morning America.” “Ahh oh my gosh I can’t believe school started already!!! Haha I saw your post on Instagram! So cute!! Send me the picture of the boys to show Brian!! Lol and I love their backpacks too!!” Petito texted Cassie on Aug. 10, the screenshot shows. “We’re in arches right now so we don’t have be [sic] best WiFi, but we did send you some mail,” she added, apparently referring to the Arches National Park north of Moab in Utah...

http://youtu.be/AJM1exeDcuA Florida cops investigating the mysterious disappearance of Long Island native Gabby Petito said Thursday they have no evidence that a crime was committed. “Right now, we are investigating a missing person case,” North Port Police Chief Todd Garrison said at a press conference. Asked if there was any criminality, Garrison answered, “Not at this time.” “At this time, it’s a missing person case,” he said. Petito, 22, was reported missing on Saturday, 10 days after her boyfriend, Brian Laundrie, returned to their Florida home in her white 2012 Ford Transit van — without her. #GabbyPetito #Florida #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...

http://youtu.be/iKn9vfJRpnU A high-ranking US Army officer has resigned and given up his pension after almost 20 years of service because of what he called President Biden’s “unethical, immoral and tyrannical” vaccine mandate. Lt. Col. Paul Douglas Hague said in a resignation letter tweeted by his wife, Katie Phipps Hague, that he was resigning from his 19-year career primarily because of the Pentagon requirement that all US military members be jabbed by mid-September. #USArmy #VaccineMandate #Biden The New York Post is your source for breaking news, news about New York, sports, business, entertainment, opinion, real estate, culture, fashion, and more.

http://youtu.be/P_OxNQ4KENI President Biden appeared to forget the name of Australian Prime Minister Scott Morrison on Wednesday night while unveiling a key nuclear submarine pact — calling him “pal” and “that fella Down Under.” The 78-year-old commander-in-chief — notorious for his flubs — was flanked by Morrison and UK Prime Minister Boris Johnson on giant screens as they unveiled the new AUKUS military alliance. “Thank you, Boris, and I want to thank, er … that fella Down Under,” Biden said after a pause while turning toward the screen with Morrison, who’d already spoken. “Thank you very much, pal. Appreciate it, Mr. Prime Minister,” he said, getting a thumbs up from Morrison, whom he called one of America’s “closest allies.” While Biden did eventually address “Prime Minister Morri...

http://youtu.be/d3h7aeo8jc8 The man allegedly hired by disgraced South Carolina legal scion Alex Murdaugh in a bizarre scheme to leave his son with $10 million in insurance cash is a suspected drug dealer. Curtis Edward Smith, 61, was charged Tuesday after confessing to the arranged shooting of Murdaugh, 53, whose wife was gunned down in June alongside another son, 22-year-old Paul. Smith was a former client of Murdaugh, a once-powerful lawyer who represented him in a speeding case in 2013 as well as a personal injury lawsuit the previous year, according to the Post and Courier. Along with a slew of charges including assisted suicide and insurance fraud, Smith on Tuesday was also charged with distribution of methamphetamine and possession of marijuana. #AlexMurdaugh #insurancescam #sc...

http://youtu.be/a8zgnxrIEuI ISIS bride Shamima Begum apologized for joining the terror group and appealed to British Prime Minister Boris Johnson to allow her to return to the UK, saying in her first live TV interview she’d “rather die” than go back to the jihadists. “I know there are some people, no matter what I say or what I do, they will not believe that I have changed, believe that I want to help,” she told ITV’s “Good Morning Britain.” “But for those who have even a drop of mercy and compassion and empathy in their hearts, I tell you from the bottom of my heart that I regret every, every decision I’ve made since I stepped into Syria and I will live with it for the rest of my life,” she said. Begum was just 15 when she and two classmates set off for Syria to join ISIS. She has sai...

http://youtu.be/Dy7PHm9tXfw Dramatic bodycam video captured the moment a Kansas firefighter rescued a little girl from a raging blaze that trapped several residents and injured six people, including two smoke-eaters. The Labor Day blaze at the Shores Apartments complex in Wichita erupted about 8 a.m. and rapidly spread, the footage posted on Facebook by the city fire department shows. A firefighter is seen running out of the inferno clutching the girl as heavy flames swirl in the fully engulfed building. “They opened up one of the doors below where the fire was burning and they found two children and a mom, that were kind of startled that we were there,” said Capt. Chad Cox, KSN-TV reported. “And they probably didn’t realize that there was actually a fire burning in the apartments abo...

http://youtu.be/lf-rJ1s3TUs A Florida nurse has pleaded guilty to threatening to kill Kamala Harris, claiming she was going to carry out the sick plot because the vice president wasn’t “actually black,” authorities said. Niviane Petit Phelps, 39, of Miami-Dade County, pleaded guilty Friday, admitting she sent her imprisoned husband six 30-second video clips of herself in February, claiming she accepted $53,000 for the “hit” to be completed within 50 days, court documents show. “Kamala Harris, you are going to die,” Phelps said in one clip, according to a complaint obtained by USA Today. “Your days are numbered already.” Phelps, who is black, told investigators she made the threats because Harris, 56, who was born to a Jamaican father and an Indian mother, wasn’t “actually black” and he...

http://youtu.be/lFwL1eggAn8 An Afghan sniper who worked alongside British special forces in the war-torn country was hunted down by the Taliban on Monday and executed in front of his family, according to a former UK army colonel. The victim, a father of five only identified as “N” to protect his surviving kin, reportedly was murdered after being one of the hundreds of Western allies left behind during a disastrous evacuation effort. “He [had] been in hiding because of the threat he faced,” British former Col. Ash Alexander-Cooper, who was once a senior adviser to the Afghan Ministry of Interior Affairs, told the Times of London. “But they found him, and he was shot multiple times, executed in front of his family,” said Alexander-Cooper, who served eight tours in Afghanistan, including ...

http://youtu.be/x1igu4FxYLo China’s most famous defector to America warned US intelligence agencies a coronavirus was spreading in Wuhan in November 2019 – six weeks before China admitted there was an outbreak. Wei Jingsheng, the father of China’s democracy movement, reveals in a new book, “What Really Happened in Wuhan,” that he first heard of a mysterious new virus at the time of the World Military Games in Wuhan in October 2019. Highly alarmed, the former Chinese Communist Party insider, whose defection to the United States in 1997 made global news, alerted intelligence agencies, a US politician with links to the president and Chinese human rights activist Dimon Liu.

http://youtu.be/cMlZMUhNxcs Senate Majority Leader Chuck Schumer has vowed to keep spending on climate change in President Biden’s $3.5 trillion budget despite opposition from a key Democratic colleague, Sen. Joe Manchin, the key swing vote. Schumer (D-NY) said Monday that the Democrats are doing “everything” they can to help Biden meet his goal of curbing US carbon emissions 50 percent by 2030 compared to 2005 levels. “The bottom line for all of us is: We can’t let this moment pass us by,” Schumer said at an event hosted by the environmental groups League of Conservation Voters and Climate Power, Politico reported. “The Senate will act in a way that’s commensurate with the magnitude of the climate crisis,” he said. But the bill — which, along with funds to fight climate change, al...

http://youtu.be/xG15VpAg0K8 So the Federal Election Commission has decided Twitter violated no election laws when it censored the New York Post’s reporting on Hunter Biden’s laptop ahead of the 2020 election. Of course, the news was leaked to the New York Times — likely by a Democratic member of the FEC staff — so that it could be treated with maximum scorn. The Times report sneeringly begins that The Post’s article was “unsubstantiated,” which is bull. The Biden team never denied that the laptop is real, and Hunter Biden later told CBS, coyly, that the laptop “could be” his. People involved in the emails we published, including Tony Bobulinski, have confirmed the content. Our article is “unsubstantiated” because the Times and other outlets don’t want to actually report on it themselve...

http://youtu.be/SyCB1Ck7NEQ Apple has reportedly fired Ashley Gjøvik, a senior engineering program manager, for allegedly leaking private company information. Gjøvik, who’s been at the company since 2015, told The Verge that she learned Thursday her employment at Apple was being terminated, effective Friday. The firing comes months after she went public with accusations of harassment, sexism and intimidation at Apple, claiming that senior employees kept a whiteboard tally of votes on ways to make her “life a living hell,” and weeks after she filed formal complaints with federal regulators. Gjøvik has also said she was regularly excluded from important emails, and that some bosses would peer-pressure employees into drinking alcohol during work hours. Gjøvik first raised concerns in Ma...
