http://youtu.be/Fv5JgT-lYUs The girlfriend of the second man killed by Kyle Rittenhouse admitted Thursday that she has “a lot of sympathy” for the teen who she believes got swept up trying to be the “king of the world” during last year’s riots. But Hannah Gittings, 25, said that she doesn’t buy that Rittenhouse, now 18, was solely out to protect businesses the night that he fatally shot her boyfriend, Anthony Huber, 26, as riots broke out against police brutality in the summer of 2020. #KyleRittenhouse #AnthonyHuber #HannahGittings 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/o5zKXr6WkrQ The New York State Assembly issued a scathing impeachment report on Andrew Cuomo that claims the disgraced ex-gov is a serial sexual harasser who misused state resources to write a self-congratulatory book during the coronavirus pandemic. The findings from a draft of the Assembly Judiciary Committee’s 45-page investigative report on Cuomo also blasts the former gov for deliberately undercounting nursing deaths from the virus to make himself look better. “The report is very telling,” said Assemblyman Michael Montesano, the ranking Republican on the Assembly Judiciary Committee, who reviewed the report on Thursday. #Cuomo #ImpeachmentReport #NewYorkPost The New York Post is your source for breaking news, news about New York, sports, business, entertainment, o...

http://youtu.be/rbCQc3rxVm8 Kyle Rittenhouse was acquitted Friday on all charges in the shootings that killed two men and injured a third during last year’s violence in Kenosha, Wisconsin. The 18-year-old broke down in tears and collapsed in his seat as the not-guilty verdict was read out in court. He hugged one of his lawyers, who told the shaking teen to “breathe,” before he was whisked out of the courtroom through the judge’s chambers by a sheriff’s deputy. Rittenhouse was charged with homicide, attempted homicide and reckless endangerment in the deaths of Joseph Rosenbaum, 36, and Anthony Huber, 26, and wounding of Gaige Grosskreutz, 27, on Aug. 25, 2020. #KyleRittenhouse #Kenosha #KyleRittenhouseVerdict The New York Post is your source for breaking news, news about New York, spor...

http://youtu.be/dWVfslReBEU Kyle Rittenhouse’s attorney Mark Richard slammed President Biden for calling the now jury-cleared 18-year-old a “white supremacist” and saying things “so incorrect and untrue” about his client on the campaign trail. “I’ve never had a case, I don’t think I ever will, where within two days or three days of one another, you know, the President and the presidential candidate comment on it. And both of them had such different beliefs,” Richard said. “President Biden said some things, I think are so incorrect and untrue — he is not a white supremacist. I’m glad that he at least respects the jury verdict. Biden while saying “I stand by what the jury has concluded,” also said he is “angry and concerned” by the not guilty verdict on all counts tied to Rittenhouse sho...

http://youtu.be/c5moep-qwEU Travis Scott once stopped a show and repeatedly ordered the crowd to “f–k” up a fan who tried to take one of his shoes, according to footage going viral after eight people died at his Texas Astroworld festival. The rapper — under fire for playing on as bodies were pulled from the crowd at Friday’s show in his hometown of Houston — had stopped a July 2015 show to rage at a fan at Openair Frauenfeld in Switzerland. Footage from the Swiss gig shows Scott, 30, leaping into the crowd — then pointing to a young-looking fan nearby after stumbling to get up. “Come here, bitch,” he shouts through his microphone, with the music stopping as he accuses the fan of trying to “take my shoe.” “Get that motherf—er, get him!” he shouts, telling other fans, “F–k him up!

http://youtu.be/eEoGwXq9N9s Looks like Ray Liotta seemed like a real horse’s ass. Liotta, 66, revealed Frank Sinatra’s daughters, Nancy and Tina, mailed him a horse’s head after he played their father in the 1998 HBO film “The Rat Pack.” The “Goodfellas” actor explained in a recent episode of “Jay Leno’s Garage” that Nancy, now 81, and Tina, 73, were in the midst of creating their own TV miniseries about their famous musician father at the same time Liotta was making “The Rat Pack.” The sisters decided to send a horse head as an homage to the iconic scene in “The Godfather” that serves as a savage warning — or as Liotta put it, “You’re toast.” #RayLiotta #FrankSinatra #TheRatPack The New York Post is your source for breaking news, news about New York, sports, business, entertainment, ...

http://youtu.be/33ZnJUL3bmc Republican Rep. Lauren Boebert trolled AOC’s “Tax the Rich” Met Gala dress and Democrats’ terrible Tuesday election results in one shot — posting her own fashion statement, a red dress emblazoned with the “Let’s Go, Brandon” slogan that’s become a rallying cry against President Biden’s policies. On Thursday, Boebert (R-Colo.) shared a photo on Twitter of her wearing the red dress while posing next to former President Donald Trump — with her back to the camera to better show the white-lettered statement running down the back. #AOC #MetGala #LaurenBoebert 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/tI9cbwMtnC4 Natalie Wood’s 1981 drowning death has remained one of Hollywood’s great mysteries for four decades. But her sister Lana Wood believes there is one person to blame for the “West Side Story” actress’ death: Natalie’s husband, Robert Wagner. “I don’t believe it was premeditated,” Lana, 75, told The Post. “But that doesn’t mean I don’t think he did it: Of course he did!” Now, she has written “Little Sister: My Investigation into the Mysterious Death of Natalie Wood” (Dey Street Books), out Tuesday. The book — part memoir, part true-crime investigation using new evidence dug up by homicide detectives — aims to dispel the myths and illuminate the facts surrounding Natalie’s tragic death. #NatalieWood #ChristopherWalken #RobertWagner The New York Post is your s...

http://youtu.be/HHhsh-Qj0P0 Natalie Wood’s sister has revealed bombshell details about the longstanding Hollywood rumor that the late star was sexually assaulted as a teen by a much older actor at a Los Angeles hotel. In her upcoming memoir “Little Sister: My Investigation into the Mysterious Death of Natalie Wood,” Lana Wood alleges that the mystery assailant was screen icon Kirk Douglas, the AP reported. “It was like an out-of-body experience,” Lana, 75, recalled the “Rebel Without a Cause” actress telling her years later. The sordid incident allegedly occurred in the summer of 1955 at the Chateau Marmont, where the girls’ mother, Maria Zakharenko, had set up a meeting between teenage Natalie and the “Spartacus” star, who was in his late-30s at the time. #NatalieWood #KirkDouglas #Se...

http://youtu.be/_l2x8i8uUCI Sen. Rand Paul blasted Dr. Anthony Fauci at a Senate hearing Thursday over gain-of-function research in Wuhan, China — calling for his resignation and alleging he’s “learned nothing from this pandemic.” Paul (R-Ky.) grilled the director of the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases, part of the National Institutes of Health, on why he repeatedly denied that the virus research was funded by the NIH prior to the COVID-19 pandemic. “Gain-of-function could cause a pandemic even worse next time,” Paul said. “[It] could endanger civilization as we know it.” The firebrand conservative claimed NIH-funded scientists “created viruses not found in nature” and that Fauci “misled” the American public by refusing to admit it. “Your repeated denials have...

http://youtu.be/uADzaLwFBCI A terrifying blood-sucking eel with rows of swirling teeth has finally been spotted after a 20-year hunt. Tour guide Sean Blocksidge extraordinarily discovered six of the lampreys– dubbed “living dinosaurs”– at once, after two decades of searching. The strange jawless creatures evolved millions of years ago and have scaleless, elongated bodies as well as a specialist mouth known as a sucker. They have a reputation for guzzling the blood of their prey, earning them the nickname of “vampire fish”. Sean, 49, had heard local legends in Margaret River, Australia, about the elusive lampreys migrating up local waterfalls, but said they had not been sighted in 10 years. He compared his relentless search to looking for a “yeti or the Loch Ness monster” – and could ...

http://youtu.be/PoWznoPJjdk New Jersey Gov. Phil Murphy declared victory Wednesday after fending off a strong challenge from Republican candidate Jack Ciattarelli that stunned the national political establishment. Murphy became the first Democrat to win a second term as the Garden State’s governor since Brendan Byrne in 1977. But the closeness of the result in a state President Biden won by 16 percentage points just 12 months ago may be a bigger shock for Democrats than even Republican Glenn Youngkin’s come-from-behind win in the Virginia race for governor. “If you want to know what the future looks like, come to New Jersey,” Murphy told supporters in Asbury Park Wednesday. “If you want to understand where America is heading, look to New Jersey. And, if you want to be governor for all o...

http://youtu.be/0qdHJIHStZg Speaker Nancy Pelosi on Wednesday put paid family leave back in the House of Representatives’ version of President Biden’s $1.75 trillion social spending bill in response to Sen. Joe Manchin’s opposition to the provision. Pelosi (D-Calif.) appeared to drop the gauntlet at the feet of Manchin (D-WV), telling members of her caucus that while she initially planned to move forward with a bill that could pass both chambers without being amended, she has decided to alter course and ramp up pressure on the upper chamber. “It had been my intention throughout this process to put on the House floor and pass a bill that would pass the Senate in the same form. Because I have been informed by a senator of opposition to a few of the priorities contained in our bill and b...

http://youtu.be/0iRgbBKbBlw Aaron Rodgers has tested positive for COVID-19 and will miss the Packers’ game against the Chiefs on Sunday, according to NFL Network’s Tom Pelissero. Ian Rapoport, also of the NFL Network, reported that Rodgers is unvaccinated against the virus, meaning he will miss a minimum of 10 days even if he tests negative for the virus. The timeline potentially allows him, though, to return for the Packers game against the Seahawks on Nov. 14. In the offseason, when asked if he had received the vaccine, Rodgers said he had been “immunized” – but did not specifically say he got the jab. “I’m not going to judge those guys (who haven’t been vaccinated,” Rodgers said in late August. “There’s guys that have been vaccinated that have contracted COVID, so it’s an interestin...

http://youtu.be/i56PjHFUFRU A camera crew member on the Western flick “Rust” who resigned the day before Alec Baldwin’s deadly shooting – claiming safety procedures were “fast and loose” — on Wednesday called the tragedy the result of a “perfect storm.” “What I put in my resignation letter was lax COVID policies, the housing situation driving to and from Albuquerque, and specifically, gun safety, a lack of rehearsals, a lack of preparing the crew for what we were doing that day,” camera first assistant Lane Luper said on “Good Morning America.” Baldwin, who also served as producer on the film, on Tuesday defended working conditions on the set by sharing several screenshots of remarks by Terese Magpale Davis, who worked in the wardrobe department for the movie. Davis pushed back against...

http://youtu.be/CblIxokA0fo The Florida police chief tasked with keeping tabs on Brian Laundrie before a massive manhunt for the fugitive admitted to “human error” in the case. North Port Police Chief Todd Garrison said cops dropped the ball when they spotted the fugitive outside his parents’ home on Sept. 15 — only to later learn it was actually Laundrie’s mother. “As a leader, what do I do?” Garrison said at a recent forum. “No, people want open transparency and honesty from their law enforcement officials.” “Yes, we made a mistake,” he added. “It was human error, but I still stand behind my team.” #GabbyPetito #BrianLaundrie #FloridaPolice The New York Post is your source for breaking news, news about New York, sports, business, entertainment, opinion, real estate, culture, fashio...

http://youtu.be/6Ji4jIJL6Vc Seconds after being shot by Alec Baldwin, cinematographer Halnya Hutchins told a boom operator on the “Rust” movie set, “That was no good. That was no good at all.” Hours later, she was pronounced dead. The haunting final words of the 42-year-old mom, who had been working as the director of photography on Baldwin’s upcoming Western flick, were reported by the Los Angeles Times based on interviews with 14 crew members, emails and text messages. A few moments earlier, Baldwin had been preparing for a shootout scene inside a church by making sure the camera crew got its angles right for the cross draw with the FD Pietta .45-caliber Colt revolver, the newspaper reported. “So, I guess I’m gonna take this out, pull it and go, ‘Bang!’” he said as he gripped the hol...

http://youtu.be/pGn3s5DoKYs Gabby Petito’s grieving dad has said he doesn’t expect any closure to come from what may be written in Brian Laundrie’s recovered notebook — and instead hopes to shift the huge interest in his daughter’s case onto helping other missing and abused women. Florida police have said that the notebook found near Laundrie’s remains in a nature park last Wednesday “may be salvageable” — leaving frenzied speculation by internet sleuths as to what it may reveal. But Joe Petito, 42, told TMZ that he is not joining the obsession over the possible words of Laundrie, 23, the only person of interest in the murder of Gabby, whose remains were found in a Wyoming park on Sept. 19 The dad said that nothing in the book will bring back his daughter or help with the grief of losi...

http://youtu.be/JyG2SXepySM Matt Damon and Ben Affleck‘s smash feature film “Good Will Hunting” is proof that a small project can turn out big results. The 1997 Gus Van Saint drama earned over $225 million at the box office and won two Oscars. However, there seemed to have been some drama that erupted after filming wrapped. “Mallrats” filmmaker (and “Good Will Hunting” executive producer) Kevin Smith claims that disgraced Miramax founder Harvey Weinstein wanted to pull the indie film from theater screens early in an attempt to mess with star Robin Williams’ career. In Smith’s new book, “Kevin Smith’s Secret Stash,” the 51-year-old revealed that Williams had a back-end deal that said if the drama grossed over $100 million, Williams would cash in a larger portion of the profits and spli...

Hannah Gutierrez-Reed’s friend Tyler Dyer wrecked his motorcycle in Arizona after attending a party with her and her boyfriend Aaron Butcher in August last year, TMZ reports. The 24-year-old former model allegedly told police she saw Dyer and Butcher drink four to five beers each at the party, but still gave her boyfriend — who was already on probation for a DUI — the keys to her own motorcycle so the two men could leave, the outlet reported. Gutierrez-Reed’s boyfriend was only supposed to be dr...

http://youtu.be/AWbC2U7aic8 There appears to be a growing visible distance between Vice President Kamala Harris and President BIden, as their joint appearances together dropped from 38 in February to just seven so far this month, amid Biden’s rapidly declining poll numbers. As the administration juggles several different crises from the border to the supply chain, the executive branch duo only appeared together once in September (marking 9/11) and once in October (the anniversary of Martin Luther King’s memorial dedication). The joint appearances are only a few out of the 486 public and private events Harris participated in during the first nine months on the job. Most recently, she has been traveling across the country to promote Biden’s Build Back Better agenda. #JoeBiden #KamalaHa...

He is also charged with special-circumstance allegations of multiple killings, which means prosecutors can seek the death penalty if he is convicted. Abulaban, who goes by JinnKid on TikTok, has nearly a million online followers and posts comedy skits and celebrity impersonations, including “Scarface” character Tony Montana. #TikTok #...

After the Jan. 6 Capitol riots, Mayor Bill de Blasio vowed to rid the city of Trump. Aiming to become a hero to progressives, on Jan. 13 the mayor said he would yank the Trump Organization’s longtime concession contracts to operate the historic Central Park carousel, Wollman and Lasker skating rinks in the park, and the Trump Ferry Point Golf Course in the Bronx. #MayorDeBlasio #DonaldTrump #NYC 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/dtPLt3rEWzY Alec Baldwin was practicing a “cross draw” in a church pew that required pointing his weapon at the camera during the prop gun mishap that left cinematographer Halyna Hutchins dead, newly released documents reveal. Two new witness accounts made public by the Sante Fe Sheriff’s Office on Sunday night describe the harrowing moment the 42-year-old director of photography was shot inside the church building on the New Mexico set of the film “Rust.” Baldwin was rehearsing the gun retrieval method from a pew of the mock church at Bonanza Creek Ranch when he aimed at the camera, while both Hutchins and 48-year-old director Joel Souza stood behind it. Souza then says he heard a “loud pop” and realized both he and Hutchins were bleeding, according to a police intervi...
