http://youtu.be/RiNA9FjcFdw With violent crime on the rise and showing no signs of a letup, a majority of voters said their family would be better off if they fled New York City, a new survey reveals. The poll, released Wednesday by Fontas Advisors/Core Decision Analytics, presented voters with this statement: “My family would have a better future if we left New York City permanently.” The poll found 59% of respondents strongly or somewhat agreed with the statement, while 41% somewhat or strongly disagreed.

http://youtu.be/MJYj5Gp_duE A Wisconsin doctor was found dead on a hiking trail Sunday — a week since loved ones had last heard from her. Kelsey Musgrove, MD, a 26-year-old cardiothoracic surgery fellow at the University of Wisconsin, shared that she had reached Potato River Falls in Gurney on March 26, Iron County sheriff’s officials said in a press release Sunday.

http://youtu.be/TVT4RWND8qE Vice President Kamala Harris gushed Tuesday that it “feels good” to have former President Barack Obama at the White House before the 44th president teasingly referred to President Biden as “Vice President Biden.” The popular 60-year-old former president received a rock star’s welcome in the White House East Room to celebrate the 12th anniversary of ObamaCare. “Feels good, doesn’t it?” Harris chuckled as Obama made his first public appearance at the White House since leaving office in 2017. Obama stepped up to the lectern and drew laughs when he acknowledged “Vice President Biden” before adding, “That was a joke.” Biden didn’t appear to think he was being shown up by his former boss during the unusually jovial event, where few people wore anti-COVID-19 face ...

http://youtu.be/DPyPO-8bpXQ A women’s rugby team at a Vermont university is being investigated for hazing after a player on the squad was allegedly branded and waterboarded last month, authorities said.

http://youtu.be/QhLrEqCe_I8 Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky gave a moving Grammys speech about the power of music – urging American artists to use their talents to “tell the truth about” Russia’s war on his country. “Fill the silence with your music!” Zelensky said in a video address before introducing Ukrainian singer Mika Newton — whose sister is fighting the Russian army — and refugee poet Lyuba Yakimchuk for a performance with John Legend on the sobering song “Free.” “Fill it today to tell our story. Tell the truth about this war on your social networks, on TV. Support us in any way you can. Any — but not silence. And then peace will come,” he said to cheers from the audience. Zelensky, in his iconic green tee, said music can end the silence imposed by the terrors of war. “...

http://youtu.be/VY5RExNKP6c President Biden believes his son Hunter did nothing illegal while involved in controversial and highly lucrative business dealings in Ukraine and China and is allowing the Justice Department to carry out its investigation unimpeded, the White House chief of staff said Sunday. “Of course the president’s confident that his son didn’t break the law. But, most importantly, as I said, that’s a matter that’s going to be decided by the Justice Department, by the legal process,” Ron Klain said on ABC News’ “This Week.” #Biden #HunterBiden #RonKlain 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/Zlh0mOxf7Yk Sen. Roy Blunt on Sunday became the latest Republican to come out in opposition to Ketanji Brown Jackson’s nomination to the Supreme Court, saying he disagrees with her judicial stance. “My sense is that the president certainly had every good intention and every, every right in the campaign to talk about putting the first black woman on the court. I think it’s time for that to happen,” the Missouri Republican said on ABC’s “This Week.” “I was hoping that I could be a part of that.” #RoyBlunt #KetanjiBrownJackson #SupremeCourt 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/mpzTMvii0tc The House of Representatives on Friday voted to federally legalize marijuana, but the bill faces long odds in the Senate and a possible veto by President Biden, who opposes legalizing pot. The bill would remove marijuana from the Controlled Substances Act and let states set their own policies. Biden has not specifically addressed his stance on the bill, but his aides say he opposes legalization while supporting more limited steps toward decriminalization. #Marijuana #Biden #WhiteHouse 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/8WqLTwWEvwU Far-left Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez said Tuesday that Supreme Court Justice Clarence Thomas should resign in the wake of revelations that his wife sent texts that pushed for the overturn of the 2020 presidential election results. “Clarence Thomas should resign,” Ocasio-Cortez (D-NY) tweeted. “If not, his failure to disclose income from right-wing organizations, recuse himself from matters involving his wife, and his vote to block the Jan 6th commission from key information must be investigated and could serve as grounds for impeachment,” she continued. “Congress must understand that a failure to hold Clarence Thomas accountable sends a loud, dangerous signal to the full Court – [Brett] Kavanaugh, [Amy Coney] Barrett, & the rest – that his acts are f...

http://youtu.be/m0zVRaIwiHw The Thacher School in Ojai, Calif., is an exclusive educational enclave with a $68,000 annual bill and a roster of illustrious alums, from politicians to CEOs to Hollywood types, including Howard Hughes, Noah Wyle and Joely Richardson. More recently the institution, which was founded in 1889, has been making headlines for its high-profile #MeToo reckoning. In June, LA law firm Munger, Tolles & Olson released an independent 91-page report revealing decades of sexual misconduct involving faculty and students. The findings divided alumni, some of whom questioned the independence of the report and felt a former head of school was scapegoated while the current administration was not held to the same scrutiny. In light of the criticism, a second report was comm...

http://youtu.be/j6DBPA0HWds Forgive the profanity, but you have got to be s–tting us. First, the New York Times decides more than a year later that Hunter Biden’s business woes are worthy of a story. Then, deep in the piece, in passing, it notes that Hunter’s laptop is legitimate. “People familiar with the investigation said prosecutors had examined emails between Mr. Biden, Mr. Archer and others about Burisma and other foreign business activity,” the Times writes. “Those emails were obtained by The New York Times from a cache of files that appears to have come from a laptop abandoned by Mr. Biden in a Delaware repair shop. The email and others in the cache were authenticated by people familiar with them and with the investigation.” Authenticated!!! You don’t say. You mean, when a news...

Attorney Clint Lancaster made the stunning prediction while confirming in an interview with CNBC that his client Lunden Roberts recently testified in Delaware before a federal grand jury in the criminal investigation into the 52-year-old presidential scion. “I expect him to be indicted,” Lancaster told the outlet, referring to Hunter Biden. “Just based on what I saw in his financial records, I would be surprised if he’s not indicted.” Lancaster said Roberts, the 31-year-old mother of Hunter Biden’s young daughter, handed over “a significant amount of Hunter’s financial records” to federal prosecutors after being subpoenaed ...

James Whitney Hill was identified by sister Cheryl Hill Gordon in a post on Facebook, where she wrote that he was killed in Chernihiv as “he was waiting in a bread line with several other people when they were gunned down by Russian military [snipers].” The 67-year-old had been living in Ukraine and working as a teacher for the past 25 years, she told The Post on Thursday.

http://youtu.be/wWQceHnBB-Y A Wisconsin dentist has been convicted of health care fraud after he purposely damaged his patients’ teeth so he could bill insurance companies for crown procedures. Scott Charmoli, 61, was also convicted of making false statements related to health care matters in the scheme from 2015 to 2019, according to the US Attorney’s Office for the Eastern District of Wisconsin.
