http://youtu.be/IzXsEgUdnKM Former President Donald Trump, who was kicked off Twitter, Facebook and other social media platforms earlier this year, announced class-action lawsuits Wednesday against Facebook, Twitter and Google as well as their CEOs.

http://youtu.be/ngyKmBjIZig Chilling new video footage shows water gushing into the garage of a Florida condominium building moments before it collapsed last week. The footage, reportedly shot by a tourist, shows water pouring down underneath Champlain Tower South in Surfside on Thursday shortly before the building pancaked, according to a report by ABC affiliate WLS-TV. Adrianna Sarmiento told the station she and her husband were swimming in the pool at the nearby Bluegreen Vacations Solara Surfside Resort while on vacation when they heard a loud noise coming from the doomed building. When they went to investigate, they saw the gushing water and began shooting the video on their mobile phone — with the timestamp showing the time to be 1:18 a.m. Authorities said the building collapsed...

http://youtu.be/pIns6Nc8AcE A chilling voicemail captures a survivor’s terrifying escape from last week’s deadly collapse of a beachfront Florida building, a recording obtained by The Post shows. “Oh my God!” a shocked Raysa Rodriguez is heard yelling during the recording. “The whole entire building is gone!” Rodriguez, 59, was sleeping in her ninth-floor condo unit at Champlain Towers South in Surfside early Thursday morning when she was awoken by the thunderous collapse — and walked out into the hellish devastation. “Anybody over there? Hello?” Rodriguez says in a voicemail she left her brother. A child is heard screaming in the background. “Yadi! You got him?” Rodriguez asks. “Raysa?” a neighbor is heard yelling back. “Let’s leave.” #Florida #BuildingCollapse #NewYorkPost The...

http://youtu.be/9pDeyOJNvP8 Bill Cosby’s surprising release from prison Wednesday was a “beautiful day” not just for the disgraced TV star but for women across the county, his spokesman claimed in an interview with The Post. “It’s a beautiful day, not just for Bill Cosby because this is about all Americans, making sure that they get justice,” spokesman Andrew Wyatt said after Cosby, 83, was freed from a Pennsylvania prison because his sex-assault conviction was vacated. “And you know, this was a fight for justice. And that’s what I fight for every day — justice and vindication for people done wrong by the judicial system.” The former star of “The Cosby Show” remains defiant despite being accused by multiple women of drugging and sexual assault — and his spokesman claimed “millions” of ...

http://youtu.be/9YrnNjBsMrQ Former President Donald Trump on Wednesday claimed during a border security event in Texas that President Biden would flunk a cognitive test. Trump said that he “aced” his own test, administered by then-White House physician Dr. Ronny Jackson, who is now a Texas Republican congressman. “[Jackson] did a test. Did I ace it? I aced it. And I’d like to see Biden ace it. He won’t ace it,” Trump said during a roundtable event at which he slammed Biden’s border policies. “He will get the first two. There are 35 questions and the first two or three are pretty easy. They are the animals. This is a lion, a giraffe. When he gets to around 20, he’s gonna have a little hard time. I think he’s gonna have a hard time with the first few, actually,” Trump added. Trump, now ...

http://youtu.be/_eCDFpdU_Dw A haunting photograph has emerged of a bunk bed precariously perched on the gutted remains of the Florida condo tower — and it was reportedly in the rented penthouse of a Manhattan attorney. The heartbreaking image caused many to wonder if a child or children had been sleeping in the room when the Champlain Towers South partially collapsed on Thursday, the Miami Herald reported. However, that now seems unlikely because the bed was part of New York City native Linda March’s furnished unit in the doomed building, according to the news outlet. #Florida #BuildingCollapse #Surfside 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/0wdqPrFbWsg A Texas woman allegedly rammed her car into a liquor store, then backed up and struck a pedestrian and multiple cars — in a failed attempt at mowing down her lover, according to reports and wild video of the incident.

Footage from the wrecking spree posted on the Daily Mail shows Williams allegedly missing her intended target — and smashing her black Chrysler SUV through the windows of the booze store, hitting a pedestrian and then four parked cars. “What the f–k just went on?!” a stunned witness says in the video. After the attempted attack, Williams allegedly fled in her car but was tak...

http://youtu.be/OQ1iVvsqVB8 Derek Chauvin’s mother begged a Minnesota judge Friday to give the former cop a light sentence, and she defended her son as a “good man” despite his murder conviction in the death of George Floyd. “Derek devoted 19 years of his life to the Minneapolis Police Department. It has been difficult for me to hear and read what the media, public and prosecution team believe Derek to be — an aggressive, heartless and uncaring person,” mom Carolyn Pawlenty told Judge Peter Cahill on Friday afternoon in Hennepin County Court. #DerekChauvin #GeorgeFloyd #ChauvinTrial 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/_4fQkq1KOMU Derek Chauvin — the former Minneapolis police officer convicted in the murder of George Floyd — was sentenced to 22 1/2 years in prison Friday. “This is based on your abuse of your position of abuse of authority and also the particular cruelty you’ve shown to George Floyd,” Judge Peter Cahill said Friday afternoon in Hennepin County Court as he handed down the sentence. “I want to acknowledge the deep and tremendous pain that all the families are feeling, especially the Floyd family.” The sentencing came after Chauvin, wearing a light gray suit, white shirt and a freshly shaved head, delivered a brief statement apologizing to the Floyd family. #DerekChauvin #GeorgeFloyd #ChauvinSentenced The New York Post is your source for breaking news, news about New Y...

Biden had given remarks on infrastructure and taken questions from the press on that issue as well as voting rights. He then attempted to wrap up by telling reporters “I’ve got to get to a helicopter” before Harris approached. The president and vice president exchanged a brief, whispered conversation that concluded with Harris saying, “Florida, yeah.” #JoeBiden #KamalaHarris #Florida 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/Hthos7j_3dA President Biden on Thursday repeatedly whispered to reporters during an impromptu press conference at the White House — drawing bemused social media speculation and jokes about the “really creepy” exchanges. On three separate occasions, Biden hunched over his lectern in the White House East Room and forcefully whispered to reporters. The awkward delivery seemed designed to emphasize his points while discussing a $1.2 trillion bipartisan infrastructure deal. When asked about additional relief for families, Biden whispered toward PBS reporter Yamiche Alcindor: “I got them $1.9 trillion in relief so far. They’re going to be getting checks in the mail that are consequential this week for childcare.” Later, when asked by CNN reporter Phil Mattingly about how the...

http://youtu.be/0MYnzGVLQhk So much for those “White Man Demands.” After accepting Manhattan Institute senior fellow Christopher Rufo’s requests via Twitter to appear on her MSNBC show, host Joy Reid declined to engage in a debate on the topic of critical race theory — resorting instead to constant interruption and insults, insisting, “it’s my show … so it’s how I want to do it.” The host of “The ReidOut” — who initially called Rufo’s tweeted requests for a debate “a weirdly aggressive way to get yourself on TV” — began the interview Wednesday evening by addressing their online spat, calling Twitter a “hyperbole zone” before asking why he deserved to be on her program. “But I just want to just get to a couple of little factual things,” Reid said before asking a series of questions abou...

http://youtu.be/fHZ1sGBhFRI House Speaker Nancy Pelosi said Thursday, “with great solemnity and sadness,” that she will establish a select committee to investigate the riot at the Capitol on Jan. 6, in the wake of the Senate blocking a bipartisan commission to probe the matter last month. The California Democrat said she would have preferred to move forward with a bipartisan commission, but due to the lack of support from Republicans in the upper chamber, felt it was necessary to launch the probe. “With great solemnity and sadness, I’m announcing the House will be establishing a Select Committee on the January 6th Insurrection,” she told reporters at a press conference Thursday morning. “On that day, our temple of democracy was attacked by insurrectionists. That trauma is something ...

http://youtu.be/fbpHGkgM7C0 Rudy Giuliani’s law license was suspended by the New York Supreme Court on Thursday for making false statements related to voter fraud in the 2020 presidential election, according to court papers. The court ruled there is “uncontroverted evidence” that Giuliani made false statements while he was acting as legal counsel for former President Donald Trump. “These false statements were made to improperly bolster respondent’s narrative that due to widespread voter fraud, victory in the 2020 United States presidential election was stolen from his client,” the ruling stated. “We conclude that respondent’s conduct immediately threatens the public interest and warrants interim suspension from the practice of law, pending further proceedings before the Attorney Griev...

http://youtu.be/xt6GJjhoOP0 JPMorgan Chase is ready to bring employees back even if their vaccine passport isn’t stamped. In a memo obtained by The Post that was sent to US employees late Wednesday, the mega-bank laid out new guidelines for getting people back to a “regular schedule” in the office by July 6. Regardless of vaccination status, JPMorgan said employees will be expected back in the office a minimum of 50 percent and possibly 100 percent of the time, depending on their role and on occupancy limits. The company is requiring employees to fill out a survey asking about their vaccine status, although they will have the option to decline to disclose it. Vaccinated employees will be exempt from most coronavirus health protocols like wearing masks and social distancing. Unvaccinate...
