http://youtu.be/u6RXkRoA5zM The second installment of Elon Musk’s “Twitter Files” dropped Thursday night and reveals how the social media giant was secretly “blacklisting” conservative tweets and users. Independent journalist Bari Weiss detailed in a series of posts how Twitter used so-called “shadow banning” to limit the visibility of tweets coming from far-right users. Conservative talk show host Dan Bongino, Stanford University’s anti-COVID lockdown advocate Dr. Jay Bhattacharya, and right-wing activist Charlie Kirk were among the users targeted for suppression by Twitter, according to Weiss. The former New York Times and Wall Street Journal writer said that the blacklists were built “in secret” and “without informing users.” Read more at https://nypost.com/2022/12/08/suppression-...

http://youtu.be/WusPEWP4Pvc FedEx driver Tanner Lynn Horner told Texas police he strangled 7-year-old Athena Strand out of fear she would tell her father he hit her with his delivery van, according to an arrest warrant. Horner admitted to grabbing the young girl from her Paradise yard and tossing her in the truck in a moment of panic after accidentally backing the van into her last week, according to the warrant obtained by the Fort Worth Star-Telegram states. Athena was not seriously injured in the Nov. 30 accident, but Horner, afraid of the consequences, allegedly decided to kill her, the report said.

http://youtu.be/6WCqXJAte_E R. Kelly may not be released, but his album is. The fraught rapper seemingly came out with a new album on Friday, titled "I Admit It," while he was still incarcerated for federal sex crimes -- although it's unclear who is actually behind the release. Sony Music Entertainment's Legacy Recordings declined to comment when contacted by The Post; however, an insider said that it was not a release from the label. TMZ similarly reported that a Sony Music source said it appears to be a "bootleg" album. Some of the tunes date back to 2018 but appear to be only released on Apple and Spotify on Friday.

http://youtu.be/kdsdMYpvzJc Elon Musk declared he was not “suicidal” in a bizarre question-and-answer session while discussing potential retaliation for his “Twitter Files” leaks. The world’s richest man answered multiple questions about his personal safety during the “Twitter Spaces” appearance Saturday, one day after journalist Matt Taibbi published bombshell information about censorship on the social media site — including suppressing The Post’s coverage of Hunter Biden’s laptop. At one point in the call, controversial tech provocateur Kim Dotcom asked Musk if he was having any “suicidal thoughts” — a question that drew shocked responses from other participants. “I do not have any suicidal thoughts. If I committed suicide, it’s not real,” Musk said. Read more at https://nypost.com/...

http://youtu.be/zKrCTSc_4Eo In a scene straight out of a zombie movie, a Brazilian man was discovered awake and breathing in a body bag — five hours after paramedics mistakenly declared him dead. “The funeral home worker called me, desperately asking me to go there, that my brother was alive,” the victim’s sister Aparecida told Jam Press of the premature death pronouncement, which occurred late last month at the Hospital Estadual do Centro-Norte in Goiano. The pre-mortem man, Jose Ribeiro da Silva, 62, had been declared dead on November 29 with officials listing the official cause as complications from mouth cancer. The hospital even handed his family a death certificate. Read more at https://nypost.com/2022/12/05/man-discovered-alive-in-body-bag-after-being-declared-dead/ #brazil #j...

http://youtu.be/QKW9jcTVc1A Shocking footage shows illegal immigrants jumping over the border wall from Mexico and running straight into oncoming traffic on a busy Texas highway — dodging cars traveling at deadly speeds. Videos posted to Instagram show two groups totaling 13 migrants dropping from the 30-foot border wall, running over Loop 375 state highway in El Paso and straight into America — with no Border Patrol in sight. In one video, a sitting driver in traffic records migrants walking through an opening in the chain link fence on the north side of the border barrier. “Look at this. You got a brother tripping,” he yells as one migrant runs, raising a victorious fist in salute as he passes.

http://youtu.be/mIzvjK8cJ4A Elon Musk has reportedly converted some conference rooms at Twitter’s headquarters into makeshift “bedrooms” this week while pushing a “hardcore” work culture at the social media site. A photo of one of the rooms obtained by Forbes — which didn’t publish the images and withheld the name of its source over “fear of reprisal” — displayed a queen-sized bed, a wooden bedside table and bright orange carpeting. The beds were purportedly added without any announcement or explanation for employees explaining the move. Forbes said the rooms held “sleeping quarters reminiscent of sad hotel rooms” and featured “unmade mattresses, drab curtains and giant conference-room telepresence monitors.” Read more at https://nypost.com/2022/12/06/elon-musks-twitter-reportedly-adds...

http://youtu.be/3k6FDle-bbY A gunman left two toddlers stranded in a car overnight after he allegedly fatally shot their mother and the man she was with as temperatures dropped to around freezing in a North Carolina city, according to reports. Eric Coley, 42, was arrested and charged with the double homicide, Rocky Mount police said in a press release. Police were called to the parking lot of a construction company Thursday morning after employees showing up to work saw the adult victims inside the parked car — and two small surviving children in the backseat, officials said, according to WITN. The children were of “toddler age,” police said, according to WTVD. The two kids were not harmed, but still taken to the hospital because they were stuck in frigid temperatures for hours, police...

http://youtu.be/c6ioENSweMg Former New Jersey Gov. Chris Christie’ niece was likely drunk and high when she was kicked off a Spirit Airlines flight, displaying “unusual strength” and foaming from the mouth as she fought off cops and shouted: “Do you know who I am?” Shannon Epstein of New Jersey allegedly caused the ruckus on a 6 a.m. flight from New Orleans, Louisiana to New Jersey on Thanksgiving Day, and was kicked off after she had acted aggressively and asked a Latino family sitting nearby if they were “smuggling cocaine.” The 25-year-old refused to get off the jetway and shouted at responding officers, according to police documents obtained by the Post. “I heard Epstein berate Deputy Ducos and the two agents,” an officer with the Jefferson Parish Sheriff wrote in the report. “Epst...

http://youtu.be/7GConjW5Npg China threatened to “resolutely crack down” on “hostile forces” as historic protests continued overnight — including wild street battles with riot cops decked out in hazmat suits. Communist Party leaders gave the ominous warning without directly mentioning the country-wide rallies, the largest show of dissent in the 33 years since protests in Tiananmen Square ended in horror and bloodshed. However, in a statement Tuesday, the party’s top body in charge of law enforcement agencies stated its priority as maintaining “effective measures” to “resolutely safeguard national security.” “We must resolutely crack down on infiltration and sabotage activities by hostile forces in accordance with the law, resolutely crack down on illegal and criminal acts that disrupt s...

http://youtu.be/nPyWb3lfVx4 A neighbor of the four murdered University of Idaho students has denied rumors online that he may be responsible for the shocking crime — and blasted the “ruthless” social media sleuths behind the dangerous speculation. Jeremy Reagan, a third-year law student who describes himself as “socially awkward,” has attracted attention on social media for publicly opining about the stabbing deaths of four friends while they slept in the small college town of Moscow. “I didn’t do it. I have nothing to hide. I’m willing to give DNA, fingerprints, whatever they need,” an exasperated Reagan told CourtTV on Tuesday. When asked what he believed the speculation stemmed from, Reagan suggested it could be his lack of composure when giving interviews. Read more at https://nyp...

http://youtu.be/SL7CF9zDY4M California police say they do not believe the 15-year-old girl at the center of a “catfishing” case resulting in the murders of her mother and grandparents was in cahoots with the suspected killer. Riverside Police Department spokesman Ryan Railsback told TMZ investigators at this time have no evidence to suggest that the teenager is anything but a victim of former Virginia state trooper Austin Lee Edwards. Edwards, 28, was killed in a shootout with law enforcement Friday after allegedly driving thousands of miles across the country and killing the family of the teen girl he had met online under an assumed identity.

http://youtu.be/xHVAi3Sji7s A senior royal aide resigned Wednesday after making “unacceptable and deeply regrettable comments” to a black domestic abuse campaigner during a Buckingham Palace event. Lady Susan Hussey, 83, made the eyebrow-raising remarks to Ngozi Fulani, 61, during an event Tuesday to raise awareness about violence for women, according to the Sunday Times’ royal editor Roya Nikkah. Fulani, who was attending the event on behalf of the charity Sistah Space, said Hussey — who was made lady of the household by King Charles III — approached her and questioned her about where she came from. When she replied she was from Hackney, the royal aide allegedly continued to pester her, asking, “No, but what nationality are you?” “I am born here and am British,” Fulani said she insis...

http://youtu.be/KmUnd1aEyjg The former Twitter executive and safety chief who played a key role in censoring The Post’s October 2020 exposé on Hunter Biden’s infamous laptop has now admitted it was a mistake — more than two years later. Yoel Roth, who was Twitter’s head of trust and safety until he quit earlier this month in the wake of Elon Musk’s $44 billion takeover, confessed Tuesday that the company erred in restricting people from sharing the scoop. In an interview with journalist Kara Swisher, Roth appeared to deflect the blame from himself — insisting that even though he had concerns about the authenticity of the laptop, it never got to the point where he thought the story should be suppressed. “We didn’t know what to believe, we didn’t know what was true, there was smoke — and...

http://youtu.be/lAgiIcRzULY Republicans blasted newly elected House Democratic leader Rep. Hakeem Jeffries on Wednesday for repeatedly denying the legitimacy of former President Donald Trump’s 2016 election. The social media offensive came from both GOP lawmakers and the Republican National Committee shortly after Jeffries (D-NY) was elevated as the leader of his party in the lower chamber. “Hakeem Jeffries called the 2016 election ILLEGITIMATE. Why are Democrats electing an ELECTION DENIER to lead their party? Where is the media outrage labeling Jeffries a THREAT to Democracy?” Rep. Ronny Jackson (R-Tenn.) said in a tweet Wednesday. RNC staffer Kyle Martinsen tweeted out a thread highlighting eight times Jeffries “denied election results.” Read more at https://nypost.com/2022/12/01...

http://youtu.be/saQcgdmwHkc “Green Book” actor Frank Vallelonga Jr. has been identified as the likely overdose victim whose body was found dumped in the Bronx, police said Thursday. The 60-year-old actor’s corpse was discovered outside a sheet-metal manufacturing factory in Hunts Point early Monday morning after being tossed out of a vehicle, cops said. His cause of his death is still being determined but preliminary findings point to an overdose, law enforcement sources told The Post. The actor is the namesake son of the Copacabana bouncer — known as “Tony Lip” — who was portrayed by Viggo Mortensen in the “Green Book” film, which tells the true story of the elder Vallelonga’s 1962 road trip through the segregated South with black pianist Don Shirley.

It’s Satan using the people, who are controlled by demonic forces.” Ye elaborated, telling Jones: “The Jewish media has made us feel like the Nazis and Hitler have never offered anything of value to the world.” “Meanwhile, there’s all of these things...

http://youtu.be/DOoxTICDcmE Jennifer Siebel Newsom lied about being raped by Harvey Weinstein because she can’t “square away” the fact she had “transactional” sex with the former movie mogul, his lawyers charged Thursday. The wife of California Gov. Gavin Newsom — referred to throughout Weinstein’s current sexual assault trial as Jane Doe 4 — gave an “overly dramatized” performance on the stand to cover up the shame she felt for having consensual sex with Weinstein, defense attorney Alan Jackson said. In his closing argument at Los Angeles Superior Court, Jackson said despite all of her education and “refinement,” Siebel Newsom had lied about her sexual tryst with Weinstein at a Beverly Hills hotel in 2005 “to cope” with a decision she’s not proud of.
