http://youtu.be/BkPQ1Oi527Q South Korean President Yoon Suk Yeol received a standing ovation at the White House state dinner on Wednesday for his rendition of Don McClean’s classic song, “American Pie.” Yoon capped off the second state dinner of President Biden’s presidency with an unexpected performance of the first verse of the 1971 hit, noting that it was one of his favorite songs while in school. The recital left guests stunned and came at the encouragement of Biden, 80, who told the 62-year-old South Korean leader that he knew “American Pie” was a favorite of his and that attendees wanted to hear him sing it.

http://youtu.be/pqbkLc5bdJc A man allegedly tried to carry a “vampire straw” through airport security in Boston — but authorities bared their fangs and arrested him. TSA agents at Logan International Airport on Sunday found the titanium straw with a beveled end inside the backpack of Arman Achuthan Nair, 26, of Chicago, the Boston Globe reported. It was “artfully concealed among titanium chopsticks,” TSA spokesman Daniel Velez said. State troopers confiscated the sharp implement at Terminal B near Gate 24 at about 5:40 p.m. Achuthan Nair said he brought it from Szabo Inc., which sells knives and other edged instruments and weapons, officials said. The company promotes the product — which sells for $85 — as a drinking straw that can be used for self-defense. Read more at https://nypo...

http://youtu.be/5QT7Y0eYEZA A Russian fighter jet caught fire and crashed into a lake Wednesday while conducting a training run in the northern Murmansk region.

http://youtu.be/cvqKVRlbz3A A 32-year-old Houston woman has been accused of plowing her Porsche into a man on a first date, killing him, as she was going about 100 mph while at nearly four times the legal alcohol limit. The driver, Kristina Chambers, was seen in a horrifying video slamming a blue Porsche 911 Carrera into Joe McMullin, 33, throwing him 30 feet into the air, before crashing into a pole at about 2:30 a.m. April 19, police said. Chambers had been driving so fast that she failed to navigate a curve and hit a curb before striking McMullin, who had just left Voodoo Doughnut shop with his date, Briana Iturrino. “We had gone to karaoke at AvantGarden. When we got out, the taco truck was closed, but he knew Voodoo would be open,” Iturrino told KTRK. Read more at https://nypost...

http://youtu.be/TzJcs1hmT_A Transgender influencer Dylan Mulvaney once said it should be “illegal” for people to refer to her by the incorrect pronouns. Mulvaney aired her grievances in a newly resurfaced TikTok video, titled “Adult Bullies,” in which she described the hate she has been subjected to ever since starting her online account. In the October 2022 video, which is currently being shared on Twitter, the 26-year-old took aim at unidentified conservative journalists who have constantly referred to her as a “man” in their media coverage. “Like, the articles written about me using ‘he’ pronouns and calling me a man over and over again, I feel like that should be illegal. I don’t know, that’s just bad journalism,” Mulvaney said in the October 2022 video. She insisted those article...

http://youtu.be/FZFQr_BzCEc Disturbing new video shows conservative commentator Steven Crowder warning his then-heavily pregnant wife to “f–king watch it” — while berating her for not following orders to do “wifely” duties. The Ring footage, released Thursday by journalist Yashar Ali on his Substack, shows a fight in the run-up to what the YouTuber has called a “horrendous divorce.” While being berated, Crowder’s wife, Hilary, repeatedly tries to reassure her husband that she loves him and is “committed.” “I love you … but your abuse is sick,” she told him at one point — with him warning sternly: “Watch it. Watch it. F–king watch it.” Crowder reportedly admitted to later inside the house threatening his wife: “I will f–k you up.” Read more at https://nypost.com/2023/04/28/steven-crow...

http://youtu.be/66mHaND0yW8 A shocking video of an airline worker putting tape on a Spirit Airlines plane has gone viral and people can’t believe what they watched. In the video, posted by TikToker myhoneysmacks, the airline worker is doing quick maintenance to the aircraft’s left wing while sitting on the tarmac at Nashville International Airport, as passengers look on from inside the plane. “The reason why I don’t fly with Spirit,” the TikToker said. “I don’t care if it is aviation airplane tape or nothing, the fact that you have to tape the plane together and then you doing it while people are on the flight like we cannot see you.” Read more at https://nypost.com/2023/04/28/worker-taping-spirit-airlines-plane-wing-goes-viral/ #spiritairlines #airplanes #travel #viralvideos The New...

http://youtu.be/G4CzTOCQEAk Fr. Vincent Lampert — a Catholic priest and the designated exorcist for the Archdiocese of Indianapolis — has witnessed people “foaming at the mouth, growling and snarling” during one of many exorcisms throughout his career. Exorcism is an ancient rite in the Catholic Church, that is, “at its core,” Fr. Lampert said, “a prayer directed to God or directed against demons.” That prayer has the power of “commanding” a demon to depart the body of a human “based on the power and the authority of Christ,” Fr. Lampert explained. “An exorcism really is a command to the demon to reveal itself. And then once the demon reveals itself, the battle against it will begin,” he said.

http://youtu.be/yfWpKSU42K4 An ABC News host admitted the network edited statements Robert F. Kennedy Jr. made about the COVID-19 vaccine out of an exclusive interview it conducted with the longshot Democratic presidential candidate. “We should note that during our conversation, Kennedy made false claims about the COVID-19 vaccines,” anchor Linsey Davis said in a disclaimer when the interview aired Thursday. “We’ve used our editorial judgment in not including extended portions of that exchange in our interview.” “Data shows that the COVID-19 vaccine has prevented millions of hospitalizations and deaths from the disease,” Davis added. “He also made misleading claims about the relationship between vaccination and autism. “Research shows that vaccines and the ingredients used in the vacci...

http://youtu.be/ythpOVPBAGU President Biden’s demise is the most likely path for Democrats to have a successful 2024 election, Joe Rogan predicted on Thursday. “The fact that he’s running again is so wild when you watch him talk,” Rogan said of the 80-year-old president on his “The Joe Rogan Experience” podcast. “The fact [is] that there’s no leadership that can find a solution to this, ‘cause there really is no solution. “Like, what are they gonna do?” he went on. “Other than Biden dying, like, very soon, and then someone stepping up in a big way that makes sense.” Rogan was joined on the show by fellow comedian Dave Smith, who opined that Biden’s death was “not beyond the realm of possibility.” Read more at https://nypost.com/2023/04/28/joe-rogan-biden-dying-is-democrats-only-soluti...

http://youtu.be/xHSaW2y7tQc A “quick-thinking” seventh-grader in Michigan became the class hero Wednesday when he took control of a school bus after the driver suddenly lost consciousness. Dillon Reeves, a student at Carter Middle School, was able to stop the bus from crashing after he realized the bus driver was experiencing a medical emergency while taking the kids home near Detriot. The bus driver “became lightheaded and lost consciousness while the bus was traveling on Masonic Boulevard near Bunert Road,” Warren Consolidated Schools Superintendent Robert Livernois said. While Livernois did not identify the boy in his statement, Warren City Councilman Jonathan Lafferty shared a message of praise for the boy in a Facebook post. “This young man jumped into action when his school bus ...

http://youtu.be/qiWA7Bf9ak4 Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis, who is expected to announce his bid for the 2024 Republican presidential nomination in a matter of days, deflected a reporter’s question Monday when asked about a series of polls showing him lagging former President Donald Trump. “Governor, polls show you falling behind Trump. Any thoughts on that?” an English-speaking reporter asked DeSantis during a press conference in Tokyo. “I’m not a candidate, so we’ll see if and when that changes,” the 44-year-old said. Footage of the exchange aired by CNN appeared to be edited to show the governor struggling for a response to the question. DeSantis reportedly has said he intends to launch a White House run later this year, with an announcement expected sometime after the Florida legislative...

http://youtu.be/xXlEK-5eBqk NBCUniversal CEO Jeff Shell was ousted after admitting “an inappropriate relationship” with a CNBC anchor at the media giant, parent company Comcast said Sunday. The alleged affair was exposed during an investigation by an outside counsel after a complaint against him, according to sources. “Today is my last day as CEO of NBCUniversal,” Shell said in a statement Sunday. “I had an inappropriate relationship with a woman in the company, which I deeply regret. “I’m truly sorry I let my Comcast and NBCUniversal colleagues down,” the statement said. “They are the most talented people in the business and the opportunity to work with them the last 10 years has been a privilege.” The woman Shell had an affair with was identified by Deadline.com as anchor and senior...

http://youtu.be/RK-t6ac2ngk A San Francisco Target store has been putting all of its products on lockdown amid a shoplifting crisis that has crippled retailers in the Golden Gate City. Footage of the store’s interior posted to TikTok Thursday showed aisle after aisle of toiletries and cosmetics under lock and key in the megachain. While it’s common for stores to lock up small valuable items like razors, heaps of inexpensive large items like mouthwash, shampoo and lotion were also being kept out of reach from the grubby hands of would-be shoplifters, the clip showed. The cosmetic confinement had been underway since at least October of last year at the Folsom Street store near the city’s Mission District, according to WNCT-TV.

http://youtu.be/p6HUiGn3PyA Don Lemon, the controversial anchor of “CNN This Morning,” is out at CNN. CNN CEO Chris Licht circulated the news via a memo Monday. “CNN and Don have parted ways,” Licht said. “Don will forever be part of the CNN family, and we thank him for his contributions over the past 17 years. We wish him well and will be cheering him on in his future endeavors.” Lemon tweeted Monday that he was informed that CNN fired him via his agent, UTA’s Jay Sures. “I was informed this morning by my agent that I have been terminated by CNN. I am stunned after 17 years at CNN I would have thought that someone in management would have the decency to tell me directly,” Lemon wrote.

http://youtu.be/IKA3Kb0DtFw New data further points to a connection between poor sleep and Alzheimer’s disease, according to researchers at Washington University School of Medicine in St. Louis, Missouri. The FDA-approved insomnia pill known as suvorexant (under the brand Belsomra) was seen to reduce harmful proteins associated with the disease in subjects who took it before bed, the team reported. They added that sleep disturbances can be a major, early warning sign of the neurodegenerative illness. Although the study was small and only conducted over a two-night span, it shows “proof-of-concept,” said senior author Dr. Brendan Lucey of the university’s sleep center. “We don’t yet know whether long-term use is effective in staving off cognitive decline, and if it is, at what dose and ...

http://youtu.be/QbjNtxQJSow Researchers flabbergasted the science community after discovering the world’s second largest blue hole in Mexico — which could potentially provide a window into life on other planets. The massive sapphire sinkhole was originally discovered in 2021, but was only documented recently in the scientific journal Frontiers In Marine Science. It is likely “the deepest known blue hole in the region,” according to the scientists, who were affiliated with the public research center El Colegio de la Frontera Sur (Ecosur). Known in scientific circles as Karst formations, blue holes are actually vertical marine caves that were carved over thousands of years by glacial runoff during the Ice Age, according to Discovery.com.

http://youtu.be/AxgQeRzK_bU A United Airlines flight bound for Israel landed back in Newark after a passenger got into a shouting match with crew members. The “disruptive passenger” was on Flight 90, which departed from Newark Liberty International Airport on Sunday morning. But the plane made a U-turn about three hours into the 10-hour trip, the airline confirmed. An eyewitness told the Israeli media outlet Ynet that the unidentified man wanted to use the bathroom and chose to wait in a seat assigned to crew members only. When a flight attendant chastised him, the man got into a shouting match with the employee, who threatened to turn the plane around.

http://youtu.be/UAvfrdLdBv0 President Biden’s top national security aide Jake Sullivan was asked point-blank Monday if he was part of an influence-peddling conspiracy benefitting Biden’s family — after a former White House stenographer made the accusation earlier this month and demanded to speak to both the FBI and a Delaware grand jury. Sullivan, 46, gave a single-word answer — “no” — when asked by The Post for a response to the allegation by Mike McCormick, who outed the current White House national security adviser as an anonymous vice presidential press source who spoke nine years ago to reporters aboard then-VP Biden’s jet. McCormick says Sullivan touted Ukrainian natural gas aid aboard Air Force Two on April 21, 2014, while flying to Kyiv just days after then-second son Hunter Bid...

http://youtu.be/hYAZfYRO158 Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez on Sunday called Ron DeSantis the “weaker” contender in a potential GOP presidential matchup between the Florida governor and former President Donald Trump. “You can’t out-Trump, Trump, right?” Ocasio-Cortez said of DeSantis in an interview with MSNBC’s Jen Psaki. “And that’s what he has really been trying to do.” DeSantis and Trump are largely considered the GOP’s top candidates for the party’s 2024 presidential nomination, though the Sunshine State governor has not yet declared his candidacy. “I think that Governor DeSantis has made some very large critical errors,” Ocasio-Cortez said. “And I think he’s weaker.” Read more at https://nypost.com/2023/04/24/aoc-says-desantis-is-a-weaker-gop-presidential-contender-than-trump/ #a...

http://youtu.be/PsNkLyuC2oI A judge has ruled that Hunter Biden must attend all court hearings related to his ongoing Arkansas paternity case. “From now on … I want both of your clients at every hearing I conduct,” Independence County Circuit Judge Holly Meyer told attorneys representing Hunter Biden and Lunden Roberts, the mom of his 4-year-old unacknowledged daughter, Navy. Meyer lashed out at the attorneys on a Zoom call Monday, complaining that litigation was taking too long. “I will no longer allow us to excuse clients,” she warned, according to the Arkansas Democrat-Gazette.

http://youtu.be/sx-8lY1hNOc President Biden stumbled over Rep. Jahana Hayes’ (D-Conn.) name during remarks at the White House on Monday, instead calling her “Jonah.” The 80-year-old president’s latest gaffe happened as he celebrated the 2023 Teachers of the Year from each state, as well as the National Teacher of the Year, during a Rose Garden event. Hayes, who was first elected to the House in 2018, is herself a former National Teacher of the Year award winner. “Thank you for the members of Congress here today, including two outstanding educating congresswomen: Jonah,” Biden said, apparently referring to Hayes. “And by the way, Jonah Hayes is — Jonah, where are you? There you are, Jonah, right in front of me,” he went on. Read more at https://nypost.com/2023/04/24/biden-flubs-...

http://youtu.be/LxkQJ2BgA24 Joe Rogan dubbed transgender influencer Dylan Mulvaney an “attention whore” for partnering with Bud Light — and eviscerated its sister brand’s patriotic new ad as a “stupid” attempt at damage control. The firebrand comedian let his feelings on the matter known, again, on a recent episode of his popular podcast, “The Joe Rogan Experience,” where he unleashed a foul-mouthed tirade while interviewing stand-up comic Jim Breuer. The former “Fear Factor” host took aim at Bud Light for recruiting Mulvaney, a TikTok star who underwent a gender transition within the past year, to help overhaul the brand previously associated with what Rogan called “old sort of frat culture.” “And so they’re gonna change that with this crazy attention whore on day 365 of being a woman...
