http://youtu.be/k5sqL23n_gE CNN daytime anchor Ana Cabrera will flee the cost-cutting network for a role at rival MSNBC, two people familiar with the situation told The Post. The anchor, who currently hosts CNN’s 1 p.m. hour, confirmed Thursday that she is leaving the Warner Bros. Discovery-owned network, which laid off hundreds of workers this month. Cabrera tweeted that her last day at CNN would be next week after working there for nearly a decade. “Goodbyes are hard,” she wrote. “Thank you CNN for everything. (My final show will be a week from today, Dec. 22.)

http://youtu.be/hQTmLwkGMmg A huge aquarium in the center of Berlin burst Friday, causing a wave of devastation in and around the Sea Life tourist attraction, German police said Friday. Glass and other debris were swept out of the building, which also contains a hotel and cafes, as 1 million liters (264,000 gallons) of water poured out of the 82-foot-high aquarium shortly before 6 a.m. Berlin’s fire service said two people were lightly injured and rescue dogs were being prepared to search the building for anyone who might be trapped under debris. There was speculation that freezing temperatures of down to minus 14 degrees Fahrenheit overnight had caused a crack in the tank, which then exploded under the weight of the water. Police said the cause of the incident was still being investig...

http://youtu.be/NrSvfNlXEiE Snapping shots of a school teacher’s Z-size breast implants is X-rated and penalized at a Canadian high school. Students at Halton School District have been “threatened with suspension” for taking any photos or videos of Oakville Trafalgar High School teacher Kayla Lemieux, who’s regularly seen at the school with her massive chest and blond wig, parents told the Toronto Sun. Yet video circulated last week of the teacher walking down the hallway on crutches with a cast on her right foot at Dr. Frank J. Hayden Secondary School in Oakland, where she was substitute teaching, the outlet reported. Lemieux — who previously went by Kerry Lemieux — made headlines after photos circulated of her skydiving with a porn star, according to the Daily Mail. Read more at htt...

http://youtu.be/GkikR4ZztDA Heart-stopping video has been circulating purporting to show a Russian skier going over the edge of a cliff in a terrifying avalanche. The footage, first posted in late November, shows the lead skier in a group approach the edge of a snow cliff and stop — before the entire bank of snow gives way beneath him. The other skiers — one of whom is filming — shout and approach the edge to look for their comrade, before quickly backing away to avoid the same fate. Russian outlet Pravda reports that the incident took place near the village of Priiskovoe in southern Russia, but does not say when the accident occurred. Though it can’t be verified in the video, Russian outlet Pravda reports that the skier miraculously survived. Read more at https://nypost.com/2022/12/...

http://youtu.be/OcsZ13VYaw0 Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez told chief twit Elon Musk to “lay off the proto-fascism” and “disconnect” Thursday after he banned several journalists from the platform. “You’re a public figure. An extremely controversial and powerful one,” Ocasio-Cortez posted in reply to a Musk tweet claiming the journalists had posted his “exact location … assassination coordinates.” “I get feeling unsafe, but descending into abuse of power + erratically banning journalists only increases the intensity around you,” the New York Democrat tweeted. “Take a beat and lay off the proto-fascism. Maybe try putting down your phone.” Her reaction came as Musk justified the bans by claiming the reporters had “doxxed” him — just two weeks after railing against Twitter’s former ownersh...

http://youtu.be/NTxtVNAeyv0 One of the journalists suspended from Twitter by Elon Musk said the mercurial mogul kicked him off the social media site because he “poked the billionaire.” CNN correspondent Donie O’Sullivan called out Musk’s move as a violation of free speech during an appearance on “CNN This Morning” on Friday. “Coming from the guy who is the free speech absolutist, who says he wants this to be a beacon of free expression, it is quite something to see him banning journalists who all just happen to cover him critically. But I would also say fairly,” said O’Sullivan, who covers technology for the cable network. On Thursday night, Musk suspended a group of reporters who had been critical of him since his $44 billion takeover of the social media platform. Those booted off the...

http://youtu.be/4zSnQ3HqbYw Chilling new footage shows the moment an Iranian-born college student calmly admits to stabbing a man she met on a dating app as revenge for the US killing of a top military commander from her home country in 2020. Police body camera footage shows Nika Nikoubin, 22, confessing that she stabbed her Plenty of Fish date in the neck as they had sex in a Las Vegas-area hotel room in March because she wanted to “spill American blood.” “We were drinking a little bit and then — I guess we started to get into it and then I stabbed him,” Nikoubin says in the footage, obtained by KLAS. Asked by the officer why she attacked her date, Nikoubin, then a student at UCLA, said it was to avenge the death of Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps commander Qassem Soleimani. Read m...

http://youtu.be/xp7i0OvV-Eo The US Department of Energy is set to reveal a “major scientific breakthrough” this week after scientists were reportedly able to produce a fusion reaction that created a net energy gain for the first time. The development — a major milestone in the pursuit of limitless clean energy — was made recently at the government-funded Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory in California, sources told the Washington Post. The net gain reaction, which is considered to be a “holy grail” of zero-carbon power, is a major step towards being able to create a technology one day that could offer a clean and virtually limitless supply of energy.

http://youtu.be/HCYw-CnJVOE A 22-year-old college senior from upstate New York has gone missing while studying abroad in France — and his family is pleading for help in finding him. Ken DeLand Jr., a student at St. John Fisher University in Rochester, last contacted his parents on Nov. 27 via WhatsApp after leaving his host family’s home to catch a train to Valence, France, according to a website launched by the frantic family. The last time his phone pinged was on Nov. 30. “Still, communication has yet to happen from his phone or any social media” since Nov. 27, the Find Ken DeLand site says.

http://youtu.be/xm7kPxQ2VlQ Pete Buttigieg has flown 18 times on taxpayer-funded private jets since taking office early last year — a practice that caused an outcry forcing one of former President Donald Trump’s cabinet officials to resign his position five years ago. Buttigieg’s travel habits were first reported Monday by Fox News Digital, which cited flight tracking data obtained by the watchdog group Americans for Public Trust. According to the report, Buttigieg has used two taxpayer-funded Cessna 560XL jets managed by the Federal Aviation Administration for trips to states including Nevada, Florida, Oklahoma, Minnesota, Ohio and New Hampshire. Fox News also reported that Buttigieg used a private plane to travel to Montreal in September to attend an International Civil Aviation Orga...

http://youtu.be/TJaZx1htxq0 A TikTok-famous plastic surgeon had her medical license suspended after allegations of botched surgeries and privacy violations surfaced. Dr. Katherine Roxanne Grawe, known as “Doctor Roxy” on the popular social media platform, has been accused of breaching patient privacy and caring more about her online following than her patients on the operating table. She’s amassed more than 842,000 followers on TikTok, where she regularly posted clips of herself dancing in scrubs and interacting with livestream viewers during operations. But her online fame has come at a hefty cost: her medical license. Some patients have allegedly been left with post-surgery injuries, according to the Daily Mail, leaving them unable to work or even stand. Read more at https://nypost....

http://youtu.be/201mQnTkooA Elon Musk was drowned out by boos when he joined Dave Chappelle onstage at a gig in San Francisco — and laughed off the snub Monday as the cries of “unhinged leftists” he’d recently “offended.” Musk, 51, made the surprise appearance at the Chase Center late Sunday after Chappelle asked his audience to “make some noise for the richest man in the world” — the title the Tesla boss and Twitter owner has just regained. Wearing an “I love Twitter” T-shirt, Musk then held his hands up in apparent confusion as Chappelle noted the loud “cheers and boos.” As the hostility grew louder, Musk told the comedian: “You weren’t expecting this, were ya?” “It sounds like some of them people you fired are in the audience,” Chappelle, 49, joked of Musk’s brutal axings just a fe...

http://youtu.be/MaBELZIPhxY The White House and other Democrats on Monday condemned far-right Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene’s comments over the weekend saying that if she had organized last year’s Capitol riot the mob would have been armed and would have “won.” “It goes against our fundamental values as a country for a Member of Congress to wish that the carnage of January 6th had been even worse, and to boast that she would have succeeded in an armed insurrection against the United States government,” Andrew Bates, deputy White House press secretary,​ said in a statement provided to The Post. “This violent rhetoric is a slap in the face to the Capitol Police, the DC Metropolitan Police, the National Guard, and the families who lost loved ones as a result of the attack on the Capitol.

http://youtu.be/CTE-Jscc1xo At least he didn’t fall off this time. President Biden playfully crouched behind the handles of a child-sized bike Monday at a Toys for Tots charity event in northern Virginia. The oldest-ever president, 80, showed his inner child while helping sort donated gifts at Joint Base Myer-Henderson Hall in Arlington. Biden squatted atop the Throttle TR bike before relinquishing it to another young-at-heart helper to roll over to contribution bins for less-fortunate children ahead of Christmas. Monday’s bike encounter went better for the president than when he took a tumble off his adult-sized two-wheeler while spending a June weekend at his summer home in Rehoboth Beach, Del.

http://youtu.be/if_ujsbR5aw Shocking footage has emerged from an NHL-backed hockey tournament of a transgender female player hitting a much-smaller transgender male opponent, who suffered a concussion after hitting the boards head first. Daniel “Danny” Maki, a transgender man from Minneapolis who plays for the Rainbow Dash, suffered the injury during the Team Trans Ice Hockey Draft, in Middleton, Wisconsin, the Daily Mail reported. In the clip from the event last month, Maki is seen entering the ice and being bumped by the other player, who then stops to check on him as other players also rush to his side. “The contact doesn’t look serious on video. But the size diff between players is so great that the female suffers a concussion,” Twitter user Jean Mazeks wrote. Read more at https:/...

http://youtu.be/TD-wB6BrDrQ Cambridge Dictionary is being criticized by conservatives on social media for altering the definitions of the words “man” and “woman” to include people who identify as a gender other than their biological sex. The definition of woman, which previously represented the longstanding view on sex, now states that a woman is “an adult who lives and identifies as female though they may have been said to have a different sex at birth.” Similarly, a man is now defined as “an adult who lives and identifies as male though they may have been said to have a different sex at birth.” This change was met with pushback from many, who argued that redefining society’s categorization of gender and sex is harmful and inaccurate.

http://youtu.be/X0c1NPg4hws A Phoenix police officer is being investigated for allegedly making and distributing porn while he was on duty and working from home. Officer Christian Goggans, 30, has been disseminating adult videos starring himself through a public Twitter page using the handle “Rico Blaze,” the station Arizona’s Family first reported, citing anonymous sources. The “Rico Blaze” account has since been switched to a private setting, making it impossible to view its contents without the user’s permission.

http://youtu.be/lzPUqVwbYJs For much of Wall Street, trading this year has been like riding a wild roller coaster. For thousands of employees of Citadel and Citadel Securities, the hedge fund and trading business founded by Ken Griffin, last weekend was spent riding the real things. Griffin paid out of his own deep pockets for about 10,000 staff and their families to converge on Walt Disney World in Florida for three days of celebrations in the Magic Kingdom and other theme parks, Citadel spokesman Zia Ahmed said. The billionaire picked up the tab for airfares from New York, Houston, Paris, Zurich and other cities and paid for hotels, park tickets and meals ranging from lamb chops to sushi and paella to applaud blockbuster returns and big anniversaries.

http://youtu.be/HuUBr6IBDYk Megyn Kelly blasted media personality Keith Olbermann after he accused his ex-girlfriend, MSNBC’s Katy Tur, of physical abuse and various other misdeeds in a bizarre segment on his podcast this week. Kelly played a portion of the Dec. 6 episode of Olbermann’s podcast, which he dedicated entirely to taking down his former lover. The left-leaning Olbermann, who hosted shows on MSNBC and ESPN, claimed Tur once physically attacked him because the apartment they shared was too dirty and pushed him to ghostwrite her book about Donald Trump in 2017, among various other gripes. Kelly and her guests, the co-hosts of “The Fifth Column” podcast, expressed shock over the “weird” rant and “15-minute diatribe.” Read more at https://nypost.com/2022/12/07/megyn-kelly-blast...

http://youtu.be/oNi2F2uCsIk A cartel leader and hitman fond of videotaping torture sessions and decapitating likely dozens of enemies has gone missing from a federal prison in Florida, where he was serving a 49-year sentence. As of November, Edgar Valdez-Villareal, a Mexican American cartel leader, had been mysteriously removed from the federal Bureau of Prisons website. He is now listed as “not in BOP custody” even though his release date is not until July 27, 2056. Valdez-Villareal, 49, is known by his underworld moniker “La Barbie,” and headed up the Los Negros, an enforcement group of the Beltran Leyva cartel — one of Mexico’s most ruthless underworld groups. At one point, he was a top lieutenant for the Sinaloa Cartel, run by convicted drug dealer Joaquin “El Chapo” Guzman-Loera. ...

http://youtu.be/ZXAy85EjNTk The House Ethics Committee is investigating Democratic New York Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez, the congressional panel confirmed Wednesday. The eight-member committee provided no details about the nature of the investigation, saying only that it had decided to extend its consideration of a matter brought to its attention on June 23 of this year, and would announce its ultimate course of action some time next year. But socialist darling AOC was the subject of two complaints submitted to the Office of Congressional Ethics over her attendance at last year’s Met Gala. Ocasio-Cortez made waves at the gala wearing a designer-made dress emblazoned with the words: “Tax the Rich.” Both complaints allege the socialist rep, 33, broke House rules by accepting free tick...

http://youtu.be/SoosMh8LV54 Video released by Russian state media shows a first-hand view of WNBA star Brittney Griner being swapped for notorious arms dealer Viktor Bout on the tarmac of an airport in the United Arab Emirates. The “Merchant of Death” can be seen embracing his Russian countrymen after being freed from federal custody hours earlier. The footage, apparently shot from a waiting Russian aircraft, shows Bout and another man walking away from an unmarked passenger jet, towards a group of people that includes Griner and three men in suits. One of the men with Griner reaches out to embrace Bout, and a second shakes his hands. The Russian video blurs the faces of both men, ostensibly agents of the Russian state.
