http://youtu.be/d0bMooqccI0 A New Jersey student has said he is barred from taking classes at Rutgers University because he has not been vaccinated — even though he is only studying virtually from home. Logan Hollar, 22, told NJ.com that he largely ignored the school’s COVID mandate “because all my classes were remote” from his Sandyston home, some 70 miles from Rutgers’ campus in New Brunswick. #RutgersUniversity #NewJersey #Vaccination 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/fJoMY7FaAVI The city of Portland, Oregon, announced it intends to ban trade and travel to the state of Texas in response to the Lone Star State’s new abortion law. Mayor Ted Wheeler announced Friday that the city council intends to vote on an emergency resolution Wednesday to stop “the City’s future procurement of goods and services from, and City employee business travel to, the state of Texas.” The resolution will be in effect until Texas ends the law or it is overturned. It’s not exactly clear what such a ban would look like. #Portland #Taxis #AbortionLaw 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/niZDyX7kVVc South Carolina attorney Alex Murdaugh resigned from his law firm after he learned he was being investigated for the misappropriation of millions of dollars the day before he was allegedly shot in the head on a rural road, the New York Times first reported. Murdaugh’s law firm, PMPED, founded by his grandfather over 100 years ago, confirmed to the paper Monday that it had hired a forensic accounting firm to investigate the missing funds, which a member, speaking on the condition of anonymity, claims is in the millions, and had also informed police and the South Carolina Bar Association. #AlexMurdaugh #SouthCarolina #PMPED The New York Post is your source for breaking news, news about New York, sports, business, entertainment, opinion, real estate, culture, fa...

http://youtu.be/9zbAWkRMVcM Mayor Bill de Blasio admitted Friday that he is “absolutely” considering future political office — which could include running to be New York governor in 2022. Hizzoner initially sidestepped his ambitions when asked about speculation on MSNBC’s “Morning Joe,” saying his focus was on collaborating and working with Gov. Kathy Hochul and “bringing this city back” after the coronavirus and the wrath of Hurricane Ida. #BillDeBlasio #NewYorkCity #Governor 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/lT2bwSp2Txk President Biden on Friday pinned the blame for disappointing monthly job-growth figures on the Delta variant of COVID-19 — using the report to urge Congress to pass his proposals for $4.7 trillion in new federal spending. The US added just 235,000 jobs in August, far short of the 720,000 positions that economists surveyed by Dow Jones expected, according to Bureau of Labor Statistics data. #Biden #COVID19 #Economy The New York Post is your source for breaking news, news about New York, sports, business, entertainment, opinion, real estate, culture, fashion, and more.

Nauman Hussain, 31, the former operator of Prestige Limousine, pled guilty Thursday to 20 counts of criminally negligent homicide in connection with the Schoharie, NY, tragedy. He was sentenced to five years probation and 1,000 hours of community service. #NaumanHussain #CarCrashes #PleaDeal 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/jxXLrxWu5JQ President Biden on Thursday said “the climate crisis” caused deadly New York City flooding from Tropical Storm Ida as he used the disaster to push his $1.2 trillion infrastructure bill. Biden spoke after at least 18 people died in New York and New Jersey, including at least eight people who drowned in flooded basement apartments in Queens and Brooklyn. “The past few days of Hurricane Ida and the wildfires in the West and the unprecedented flash floods in New York and New Jersey is yet another reminder that these extreme storms and the climate crisis are here,” Biden said in a speech from the White House-adjacent Eisenhower Executive Office Building. “We need to act. When Congress returns this month, I’m going to press for their action on my Build Back Better...

http://youtu.be/w33oMixbe_8 The New York subway stations were submerged in water on Wednesday night, as flash flooding turned platforms and stairwells into waterfalls as the century-old system ground to a halt. The remains of Hurricane Ida left a path of destruction in New Jersey, tearing homes to pieces. The storm swept through NYC, flooding apartments and turning streets into rivers from Park Slope to the Cross Bronx Expressway. At least a half dozen subway trains stuck between stations were evacuated, according to the MTA, which said service remained “very limited” Thursday morning due to historic rainfall which dumped as many as six inches of rain on the city in a matter of hours. At least four people were killed in Brooklyn and Queens after being trapped in basements when the flo...

http://youtu.be/JM2b3Nnpyjo A terrified American citizen who was an interpreter for the US military has said she is now stranded in Afghanistan — because no one told her the last flights were leaving Monday. “I just found out that [the last US troops] left, and I was just silent for a while,” the interpreter, using the pseudonym Sara for safety, told CNN Monday night. “I just can’t believe no one told me that this is the last flight.” Sara said she is now more terrified than during any of her missions helping the military over 14 years. “They left us to whom? To those people who wanted to always kill us? “This is my fear,” she told “Cuomo Prime Time” of Taliban troops who have reportedly been going door-to-door seeking revenge on those who helped their opposition. “It’s just heartbr...

http://youtu.be/Vs1vM1NaENM It was over for Ken Jennings before he even began. The Wall Street Journal has reported that the “Jeopardy!” champ was all set to take over Alex Trebek’s spot after the longtime host passed away in November 2020 — until people went digging into his Twitter history. Jennings, 47, has since apologized for the posts — describing them as “unartful and insensitive” in an open apology — including a tasteless joke that read: “nothing sadder than a hot person in a wheelchair.” The WSJ further reported that Jennings had apparently scored low on the audience’s charisma meter, saying focus groups reportedly “didn’t react well” to the idea of seeing Jennings at the podium following the tweet revelations. #KenJennings #Jeopardy #NewYorkPost The New York Post is your so...

http://youtu.be/YlRF_mlupKA What is “fired”? Embattled “Jeopardy!” executive producer Mike Richards is done. Richards — the briefly favored replacement host for the late Alex Trebek — has been officially disqualified as the showrunner for both that longtime game show and “Wheel of Fortune.” The controversial 46-year-old stepped down from the coveted host gig last week amid public outrage and resurfaced sexist comments. However, Richards was expected to remain at the helm behind the scenes — as the executive producer of the beloved game show, while multiple guest hosts cycled through on screen. Show insiders confirmed Tuesday that Richards was relieved of his duties at “Jeopardy!” and “Wheel of Fortune” in the EP capacity as well. #MikeRichards #Jeopardy #NewYorkPost The New York Post...

http://youtu.be/VjGAUSClOsI A lifeguard was killed and seven other people injured when they were struck by lightning at a New Jersey beach Monday, reports said. The deadly strike occurred in South Seaside Park at the 21st Street beach around 4:30 p.m., the Berkeley Township Police Department confirmed. A male lifeguard was struck by the lightning and couldn’t hear after being hit, according to New Jersey 101.5. He was later pronounced dead at the scene.

http://youtu.be/D2-Zt1p1uoc An Ohio judge on Monday ordered a hospital to treat a COVID-19 patient with ivermectin — an unproven virus treatment and livestock dewormer — going against CDC and FDA recommendations. Jeffrey Smith, 51, contracted the coronavirus in early July and has been in the intensive care unit on a ventilator at West Chester Hospital in Cincinnati for weeks, according to the Ohio Capital Journal. His wife, Julie Smith, filed a lawsuit against the hospital on Aug. 20, demanding an emergency order for the use of the animal medication in a Butler County court in a last-ditch effort to keep her husband alive as he suffers “on death’s doorstep.” On Aug. 23, Butler County Judge Gregory Howard ordered that Dr. Fred Wagshul’s prescription of 30 milligrams of ivermectin daily f...

http://youtu.be/9T1_QxPQ1E8 President Biden was warned that another terror attack in Kabul, Afghanistan, is “likely” as the US military draws up plans to retaliate against ISIS-K for the slaughter of 13 service members at the city’s airport, the White House said Friday. Press secretary Jen Psaki offered no additional details on the potential threats discussed during a Situation Room meeting between Biden and his national security team, but said commanders were “taking maximum force protection measures at the Kabul Airport.” In a prepared statement posted on the White House website, Psaki said the evacuation efforts there were entering “the most dangerous period to date.” #JenPsaki #JoeBiden #Afghanistan The New York Post is your source for breaking news, news about New York, sports, b...

http://youtu.be/N6abX_0e5Ig The US Supreme Court on Thursday night struck down a federal eviction moratorium that was recently extended by President Biden’s administration without congressional support. The decision to end the pandemic-related eviction freeze came as a result of a legal challenge to the policy brought by a coalition of landlords and real estate trade groups. On Aug. 3, the moratorium was extended by the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, despite a lack of congressional approval. #SupremeCourt #Biden #FederalEvictionMoratorium 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/c0FmVJrwoiw The US will continue its evacuation mission from Afghanistan — and will keep relying on the Taliban for “protection” in the aftermath of the deadly terror attacks on the Kabul airport on Thursday, Department of Defense officials said in a news briefing. At least 12 US service members were killed and 15 wounded after two suicide bombers struck the area around Hamid Karzai International Airport, Gen. Frank McKenzie Jr., commander of US Central Command, told reporters. A “number of ISIS gunmen” then opened fire on US troops, he said. The bombers appear to have somehow gotten past Taliban checkpoints on the outer perimeter of the airfield, McKenzie said, acknowledging there was “a failure somewhere.” US officials are bracing for more attacks, and will continue ...

http://youtu.be/UxeWGtwUqyU President Joe Biden announced that he has asked defense officials to put together “contingency plans” for keeping American forces on the ground in Afghanistan beyond the end of this month — despite claiming earlier Tuesday that the White House would abide by the Taliban’s “red line” of a full withdrawal by Aug. 31. Biden said Tuesday that the completion of US forces’ evacuation operation at Kabul’s international airport by the end of this month “depends on the Taliban continuing to cooperate,” and confirmed that he had asked the Pentagon and the State Department for “contingency plans to adjust the timetable, should that become necessary.” #Biden #Afghanistan #NewYorkPost The New York Post is your source for breaking news, news about New York, sports, busine...

A stoic news anchor adeptly handled a devilishly haywire situation last week when a clip showing a Satanic ritual was accidentally broadcast during her segment. It began as Australian Broadcasting Corporation (ABC) presenter Yvonne Yong calmly informed audiences of new animal legislation during a live program on the network. “State government announced the proposed legislation today. It’s in part due to the stabbing of a police dog during an arrest in Brisbane last year,” she said. #SatanicRitual #ABC #Australia The New York Post is your source for breaking news, news about New York, sports, business, entertainment, opinion, real estate, culture, fashion, and more.
