Anthony Fauci apologizes for latest gaffe in COVID analysis | New York Post

News- US

http://youtu.be/VrquvCQ7L6E Dr. Anthony Fauci has admitted making his latest mistake in coronavirus guidance, this time over when he thinks the pandemic will come “under control” — apologizing by saying, “My bad.” The White House coronavirus czar had told NPR on Monday that if enough people get vaccinated, the US could “really get some good control over this” by the fall or winter of next year. But quizzed on it by CNN’s Anderson Cooper later the same day, Fauci — who has been under fire repeatedly for flip-flopping on his public advice from the early days of the pandemic — said he actually thinks that control will come even sooner. “Anderson, I have to apologize. When I listened to the tape, I meant to say the spring of 2022, so I did misspeak,” he said. #AnthonyFauci #COVID #NewYork...

VP Kamala Harris laughs when asked about tragedy in Afghanistan | New York Post

News- US

http://youtu.be/ImmGRBkYsik Vice President Kamala Harris is under fire after footage shows her laughing when asked about the deadly chaos in Afghanistan. The VP — heavily criticized for her delay in addressing the disaster that started after the US pulled out despite the Taliban’s resurgence — was already grinning widely when she approached reporters Friday. A reporter attempted to ask about her “response on Americans” — but the VP cut her off before she could finish. “Hold on, hold on — slow down, everybody!” Harris said, before letting out her now-notorious laugh, shaking her shoulders as she chuckled. The VP finally controlled herself to insist that the Biden administration “couldn’t have a higher priority right now” than Afghanistan. #KamalaHarris #Afghanistan #NewYorkPost The N...

News- US

http://youtu.be/3Fq35e60okM Harrowing footage from Kabul’s international airport shows desperate Afghans attempting to flee their country by any means necessary — even handing children to US soldiers on the other side of the airport wall in the hope of getting them on evacuation flights.

The footage shows a mass of humanity outside Hamid Karzai International Airport, some of them waving passports and other identification documents.

News- US

http://youtu.be/3jrjeuPXHDs Gunfire could be heard at Kabul International Airport on Monday morning as Afghan citizens flooded the tarmac, some clinging to the jet bridge of a plane, as they desperately tried to flee the country. The chaos followed a disastrous day for Afghanistan and the first day of Taliban rule in the country. The messy withdrawal of US troops, after 20 years of relentless conflict, caused the government to collapse within days, sending President Ashraf Ghani into hiding. The State Department said early Monday that all staffers from the US embassy in Kabul were safe and being flown out of the country. #NewYorkPost #KabulAirport #Taliban #Afghan The New York Post is your source for breaking news, news about New York, sports, business, entertainment, opinion, real es...
