http://youtu.be/w3To8no53Zw Seven demonstrators were busted Monday after they barged into and briefly occupied House Speaker Kevin McCarthy’s (R-Calif.) office, according to Capitol Police. The protesters were seeking a five-year reauthorization of PEPFAR, a George W. Bush-era program that provides government funding for HIV and AIDS treatment, prevention and research. “Pass PEPFAR now,” the group chanted as security personnel warned that they would be arrested if they remained. The activists were later stood up against the wall outside McCarthy’s office and handcuffed. They kept demanding PEPFAR’s renewal as authorities escorted them away, in a scene captured on video by Politico reporter Alice Miranda Ollstein.

http://youtu.be/yO64KVNPBOs The retired surgeon whose party yacht was busted in Nantucket Harbor last week with guns, drugs and alleged prostitutes aboard has stage 4 terminal cancer and is not expected to live much longer, his attorney revealed. Scott Burke, 69, was described as a good citizen and a humanitarian who is living out his last days with late-stage cancer by defense attorney Henry Brennan. The lawyer spoke last Thursday during a pretrial hearing, where he successfully argued against jailing his client. “To have this man potentially spend the rest of his life waiting for a case in jail, to me, would be very, very tragic,” Brennan told Nantucket District Judge James Sullivan, according to the Nantucket Current. Although Brennan did not state what type of cancer Burke has, a ...

http://youtu.be/n3PKgj-uEb8 Mayor Eric Adams grimaced as he stood next to a grinning Vice President Kamala Harris at Manhattan’s 9/11 memorial Monday — a scene that said it all about tensions between local and federal Dems over migrants. Harris, who was filling in for President Biden at the hallowed service, spent much of her time in the morning before the ceremony smiling and laughing — with Gov. Kathy Hochul, who was to her left, videos show. Adams, standing on the vice president’s right, frowned as he looked away — an apparently frosty encounter publicly displaying the split between City Hall and the White House over the crisis. Hizzoner insisted to The Post while walking back to his office after Monday’s Lower Manhattan service that he and Harris exchanged pleasantries — but that h...

http://youtu.be/iAik_KOieXM Calls are mounting for a Bud Light-style boycott of gun safe manufacturer Liberty Safe after it gave the FBI access to an alleged Jan. 6, 2021, rioter’s firearms. The manufacturer acknowledged the widespread conservative backlash after it complied with a federal warrant that led to the Aug. 30 arrest of an Arkansas man for his alleged involvement in the Capitol riots. Liberty Safe said it only gave the feds an access code to 34-year-old Nathan Hughes’ gun safe after receiving proof of the warrant.

http://youtu.be/ZwR_7-WU_ZI “That ’70s Show” star Danny Masterson was sentenced to 30 years in prison Thursday for raping two women at the height of his celebrity two decades ago. Masterson, 47 — who was found guilty of raping victims Jen B. and N. Trout in his Hollywood-area home back in 2003 — remained silent in court as he was sentenced to 15 years for each count, which will be served consecutively, the maximum sentence allowable under the law. “One way or another you will have to come to terms with your prior actions, and their consequences,” Los Angeles County Superior Court Judge Charlaine Olmedoe told Masterson.

http://youtu.be/AzANDIuJGRU Elon Musk foiled a Ukrainian submarine drone attack on a Russian naval fleet last year by turning off his Starlink satellite internet network near the Crimean coast to prevent a “mini-Pearl Harbor,” a biography of the billionaire claims. Musk, 52, thought the Kremlin would respond to the attack with nuclear weapons — a fear based on conversations he had with senior Russian officials, according to an excerpt of Walter Isaacson’s “Elon Musk,” CNN reported Thursday. As Ukrainian submarine drones carrying bombs approached the ships, they “lost connectivity and washed ashore harmlessly,” Isaacson wrote, according to the network. Ukrainian officials then begged the SpaceX founder to turn back on his satellite internet constellation, the book reportedly said. The ...

http://youtu.be/heyzXveivmI Former Trump trade adviser Peter Navarro has been found guilty of two counts of criminal contempt of Congress for his refusal to cooperate with a congressional panel investigating the Jan. 6, 2021, riot at the US Capitol Building. Navarro, 74, was convicted by a Washington, DC, jury after four hours of deliberation on Thursday — one day after the start of the trial — over his failure to produce documents and comply with a subpoena request for testimony issued last year by the House Jan. 6 Select Committee. The former White House official had intended to launch a defense centered on his assertion that executive privilege had been invoked by former President Donald Trump, shielding him from the subpoena. However, US District Judge Amit Mehta ruled Wednesday...

http://youtu.be/UumVGMPIKHI Former President Donald Trump revealed Wednesday that he had no right to fire Dr. Anthony Fauci but clarified that the White House COVID czar wasn’t a “big player” in his administration during the pandemic. “The biggest knock on your presidency is you kept Dr. Fauci,” conservative radio host Hugh Hewitt asked the former president. “Why did you keep Dr. Fauci?” “First of all, you’re not allowed. He’s civil service, and you’re not allowed to fire him,” Trump, 77, responded. “But forget that, because I don’t necessarily go by everything. But Dr. Fauci would tell me things, and I wouldn’t do them, in many cases. But also, he wasn’t a big player in my administration.” The former National Institutes of Allergy and Infectious Diseases director under Trump and Pres...

http://youtu.be/1U_vLiM9Wgc An Oklahoma elementary school is facing calls to fire its drag queen principal who once faced child porn raps, according to a report. Shane Murnan — who performs as “Shantel Mandalay” when in high heels and makeup — was tapped as John Glenn Elementary School’s top administrator in Oklahoma City in June, according to Fox News. The outlet reported that Murnan was charged with possession of child pornography more than 20 years ago — but the case was dismissed because it couldn’t be proven that the images depicted minors. According to The Oklahoman, Murnan was working as a fifth-grade teacher at the time and resigned from his position before later re-entering the profession.

http://youtu.be/8BAPT5hgW1o North Korea has launched its first operational "tactical nuclear attack submarine" and assigned it to the fleet that patrols the waters between the Korean peninsula and Japan, state media said on Friday (September 8). It's the latest in a series of moves to boost the country's naval might. The boat, named Hero Kim Kun Ok, has been assigned to the fleet that patrols the waters between the Korean peninsula and Japan, North Korean outlets reported. So what is the new vessel and what does its launch mean for the reclusive country's navy? In a speech at the sub's launch ceremony, North Korean leader Kim Jung Un said it would become one of the main "underwater offensive means of the naval force". North Korea's navy has historically been dwarfed by its land forces...

http://youtu.be/YjmakWwhT10 A “grenade” found at an East Harlem subway station Friday morning prompted an NYPD Bomb Squad investigation and shut down service during rush hour — though it turned out to just be plastic, police sources said. The device — initially believed to be a real grenade — was discovered on the southbound No. 4 train tracks at Lexington Avenue and 125th Street around 8:45 a.m. Friday, the sources said. As the Bomb Squad and Emergency Service Unit investigated, service for the Nos. 4 and 6 trains was halted between Manhattan and the Bronx in both directions. No. 5 train service was suspended on the east side of Manhattan. By around 10 a.m., the device was found to be a harmless piece of plastic, sources said.

http://youtu.be/7ZJkM4VRcJY A Nevada rapper was arrested on murder charges after implicating himself in a music video by sharing details of the crime that only a killer could have known, police said. Kenjuan McDaniel, 25, was picked up on August 29 after police said lyrics in one of his recently posted music videos included details about a 2021 murder that had not been publicly released, Las Vegas Metropolitan Police said. “I be the reason why he’s dead, we still taunt him when he die, not the reason he’s dead, so celebrate the reason why his momma cry,” was one of the lyrics in McDaniel’s video for his song “Fadee Free” that police said implicated the rapper, according to a warrant obtained by KVUU. “Parked the car, double back on feet, the smartest way to slide, drove in, double lock...

http://youtu.be/3xcXeSpdtRo Barstool Sports founder Dave Portnoy blasted Tucker Carlson over a recent interview with convicted fraudster Larry Sinclair, who claimed on Wednesday that he was involved in a drug-fueled sexual encounter with former President Barack Obama. Portnoy posted a note on the social media platform X indicating that he had met Sinclair two weeks ago when they were both invited to Carlson’s studio in order to tape an interview, which was livestreamed on the app formerly known as Twitter. “I would trust Anna Delvey before I trusted anything Larry Sinclair said,” Portnoy wrote Thursday, referencing the German-Russian “fake heiress” who served two years in prison for defrauding banks while impersonating a wealthy socialite in order to gain access to ritzy Manhattan parti...

http://youtu.be/1YXhYGiKigQ A Minnesota Democratic–Farmer–Labor Party official who once vowed to “dismantle” the Minneapolis Police Department is now calling for tougher crime laws after she was beaten and bloodied in a carjacking outside her home this week. Shivanthi Sathanandan, the second vice chairwoman for the DFL, shared news of her attack in a Wednesday Facebook post, where she fumed that the four young suspects need to be brought to justice. “I have a broken leg, deep lacerations on my head, bruising, and cuts all over my body.
