News- US

http://youtu.be/YjmakWwhT10 A “grenade” found at an East Harlem subway station Friday morning prompted an NYPD Bomb Squad investigation and shut down service during rush hour — though it turned out to just be plastic, police sources said. The device — initially believed to be a real grenade — was discovered on the southbound No. 4 train tracks at Lexington Avenue and 125th Street around 8:45 a.m. Friday, the sources said. As the Bomb Squad and Emergency Service Unit investigated, service for the Nos. 4 and 6 trains was halted between Manhattan and the Bronx in both directions. No. 5 train service was suspended on the east side of Manhattan. By around 10 a.m., the device was found to be a harmless piece of plastic, sources said.

Kenjuan McDaniel, 25, was picked up on August 29 after police said lyrics in one of his recently posted music videos included details about a 2021 murder that had not been publicly released, Las Vegas Metropolitan Police said. “I be the reason why he’s dead, we still taunt him when he die, not the reason he’s dead, so celebrate the reason why his momma cry,” was one of the lyrics in McDaniel’s video for his song “Fadee Free” that police said implicated the rapper, according to a warrant obtained by KVUU. “Parked the car, double back on feet, the smartest way to slide, drove in, double lock...

News- US

http://youtu.be/XzYv5D3QrGM A lawyer for Brian Laundrie and his parents in Gabby Petito’s murder case reportedly made a settlement offer to the slain woman’s mom and dad ahead of a civil trial scheduled for next year. Court papers obtained by WFLA show attorney Steven Bertolino recently filed the proposal to Joe Petito and Nichole Schmidt, Gabby’s parents. The terms of the deal were not disclosed, and a lawyer representing Joe Petito and Schmidt declined to comment to the outlet. Gabby’s grieving parents are suing Brian Laundrie’s parents — Chris and Robert Laundrie — in civil court in Florida, alleging they were aware of Gabby’s killing but chose to remain silent about the case.

News- US

http://youtu.be/MDwLhLsybzg A heroic Michigan cop saved a baby who stopped breathing after he pulled over the toddler’s uncle for speeding in a Chevrolet Camaro Tuesday evening. Dashcam footage captured the dramatic rescue by Warren police officer Brendan Fraser, who jumped into action during the traffic stop when he heard frantic pleas from the 18-month-old’s mother. “Help, help, we got a baby here dying,” the driver shouted through tears as the cop ran up to the car, according to the dashcam footage posted by local stations. “I thought he was racing somebody, or maybe he was trying to get away from something,” Fraser said of the driver, according to CBS Detroit. “And then, really, now it made sense when he handed his baby over.

Fauci admits to lack of COVID mask evidence — but wants us to wear them anyway | New York Post

News- US

http://youtu.be/toElLPd650A Dr. Anthony Fauci flip-flopped once again on masking as a means to tamp down COVID-19 as he admitted that a wide-ranging study found that face masks made no difference in the course of the pandemic. “I am concerned that people will not abide by recommendations,” Fauci told CNN’s Michael Smerconish Saturday in a segment flagging a rise in COVID cases nationwide. Federal agencies and state and local governments decreed onerous mask mandates for airplanes, schools, public transit, restaurants, workplaces and more starting in 2020 — thanks largely to Fauci, the public face of the nation’s official COVID response. As the White House’s chief medical adviser, Fauci gave conflicting advice on the efficacy of masking, first saying it was unnecessary for the general p...

Biden boasts about cutting federal budget deficit — as it soars

News- US

http://youtu.be/shGYU4nrQzI President Biden boasted during a Labor Day speech in Philadelphia on Monday that he cut the federal budget deficit — despite the fact that it’s soaring this year. “Unlike the last president, in my first two years — all this stuff, guess what? — I cut the deficit $1.7 trillion, cut the debt $1.7 trillion,” the 80-year-old president said, conflating the basic budget terms after he touted new infrastructure spending. The claim, which Biden has made in the past, routinely attracts unflattering fact checks because government spending remains at near-record highs — while much of the previous reduction came from the expiration of COVID-19 emergency spending, rather than the president’s own actions. In reality, the nonpartisan Committee for a Responsible Federal Bud...

FBI joins investigation of missing South Carolina mom over possible Rex Heuermann ties

News- US

http://youtu.be/SXfmc_OmeCE The FBI has joined an investigation into possible links between suspected serial killer Rex Heuermann and a missing South Carolina mom — but a local sheriff cautions that so far there is “zero” direct evidence. Sumter County Sheriff’s Office confirmed to NBC News Monday that the feds have been asked to help investigate Julia Ann Bean’s 2017 disappearance after her daughter recently came forward to say she was last seen with a man resembling the 59-year-old Gilgo Beach suspect. The daughter, Cameron Bean, also said the mystery man was driving a dark truck, seemingly similar to the vehicle hauled from Heuermann’s own home in the Palmetto State after his arrest for the Long Island murders. “Miss Bean may have a connection with the serial killer in New York, Rex...

Mitch McConnell still ‘perfectly capable’ to lead after freeze-ups: GOP senator

News- US

http://youtu.be/d3wWQWmQbJw Sen. Mitch McConnell is “perfectly capable” of leading his GOP caucus — even after the 81-year-old froze in public last week for the second time in as many months, says Republican Sen. Mike Rounds of South Dakota. “Mitch is sharp, and he is shrewd. He understands what needs to be done,” Rounds told CNN on Sunday of the Senate minority leader from Kentucky. “I will leave it up to him as to how he wants to discuss that with the American public. But there’s no doubt in my mind that he is perfectly capable of continuing on at this stage of the game.” Concerns have mounted about the health of the longest-serving Senate Republican leader in history after he froze up and was unresponsive for minutes on end during press conferences in July and August.

Pence slams Biden for veep email pseudonyms, says he ‘never’ emailed while vice president

News- US

http://youtu.be/Ik5ob1CdZ9Y Mike Pence says he never used email while vice president — much less accounts registered to pseudonyms as President Biden did — because of the security risk. “The internet is never completely safe. I literally never used email when I was vice president,” Pence told John Catsimatidis in an interview Monday night on WABC 770 AM’s “Cats & Cosby Show.” “So this idea of multiple emails with pseudonyms for Joe Biden over the years, I was just taken aback,” said Pence, referring to the president’s use of several email accounts during his eight-year vice presidency under Barack Obama. “It is … one more example of everything that’s swirling around this administration,” said the former No. 2 under ex-President Donald Trump, referring to Biden. “They are under an e...

Vietnam veteran fuming after airline boots him from business class to make room for employee

News- US

http://youtu.be/SF9l6KNzSj0 An elderly Vietnam veteran from Adelaide, Australia was downgraded from his paid Qantas business class seat on Sunday so a young pilot could travel in luxury to the South Australian capital. Stephen Jones, 78, and his wife were in the Qantas lounge enjoying a coffee on their way home from a holiday in Christchurch on Sunday when they got the news – just 30 minutes before the final Melbourne to Adelaide leg took off. The reason was that a pilot needed to get to Adelaide for a flight and could only do business class as per an enterprise agreement. Speaking to Melbourne’s “3AW,” Mr Jones said he was offered 5000 Frequent Flyer points and an apology after a letter of complaint.

‘Lunch-pail cornball’ Biden griped ‘professor’ Obama couldn’t say ‘f–k you properly’: book

News- US

http://youtu.be/qOZFtaIRED4 President Biden griped that his onetime boss Barack Obama couldn’t even say “F–k you!” properly because he was so buttoned-up, according to “The Last Politician’’ by well-connected author Franklin Foer. While President Obama and his then-vice president were in sync on a lot of things, there was an underlying “tinge of class rivalry to their gibes,” according to the new biography. Foer described the pair as “the lunch-pail cornball” (Biden) “and the effete professor culturally” (Obama) “chafing each other. “Biden told a friend that Obama didn’t know how to say f–k you properly, with the right elongation of vowels and the necessary hardness of his consonants,” Foer writes. “It was how they must curse in the ivory tower.” Biden, 80, was concerned that Obama, 6...

Donald Trump ‘grossly’ exaggerated net worth – by as much as $2.2B in one year: NY AG

News- US

http://youtu.be/n62Wg6q74aM Former President Donald Trump “grossly” exaggerated his net worth on financial disclosure forms for a decade — cooking the books by as much as $2.2 billion in a single year, New York Attorney General Letitia James alleged in court papers filed Wednesday. The fresh claims came in documents in which James’ office asked a judge to rule on parts of her $250 million lawsuit against the ex-president, his company the Trump Organization and kids Eric and Donald Trump Jr. over alleged “staggering” fraud. By allegedly lying on the forms for a decade, Trump, 77, received more favorable loan and insurance terms — “reaping hundreds of millions of dollars in ill-gotten savings and profits,” the Manhattan Supreme Court filing states.

The 80-year-old president invoked the tiny 2004 blaze at his Wilmington abode while saying residents of the Hawaiian island won’t be allowed in the damage zone until potentially toxic debris is removed. “If anybody in Maui is listening, you lost everything … and we’re doing everything we can to move heaven and Earth to help you … We’ve already dedicated $24 million to the removal of hazardous material left behind in the fire’s wake … you got to take out the polluted, dangerous stuff,” Biden...
