AOC, Ted Cruz agree: COVID relief bill was too big to read before vote | New York Post

News- US
http://youtu.be/QnvXJW1aaMI Far-left Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez and conservative firebrand Sen. Ted Cruz found rare common ground this week, agreeing that lawmakers didn’t have enough time to read the massive coronavirus relief bill before voting on it. “This is why Congress needs time to actually read this package before voting on it. Members of Congress have not read this bill. It’s over 5000 pages, arrived at 2pm today, and we are told to expect a vote on it in 2 hours,” Ocasio-Cortez tweeted late Monday after the $900 billion bill was approved. “This isn’t governance. It’s hostage-taking,” she said, referring to a provision in the bill that would make illegal streaming for commercial profit a felony. Less than an hour later, Cruz tweeted: “@AOC is right.” “It’s ABSURD to have...

Journalist reveals romance with infamous ‘Pharma Bro’ Martin Shkreli | New York Post

News- US
http://youtu.be/Ol6B7-TJ-z8 A New York journalist fell in love with infamous “Pharma Bro” Martin Shkreli and upended her “perfect” life for him — quitting her job and divorcing her husband, she revealed in a new report. Former Bloomberg News reporter Christie Smythe, 38, opened up about her relationship with the convicted fraudster for the first time in an Elle magazine article published Sunday. “I fell down the rabbit hole,” Smythe told the mag of her life-altering romance with Shkreli, 37 — who is serving a seven-year sentence for scamming investors in hedge funds he operated. “I’m happy here. I feel like I have purpose,” she gushed. But their love story may not get a happy ending. Smythe hasn’t seen her beau in over a year because of COVID-19 safety protocols at prisons. Now worki...

When will the second stimulus checks arrive? What we know | New York Post

News- US
http://youtu.be/4rwD0aW0Kxs After nearly nine months and seemingly endless negotiations in Washington, millions of Americans could soon get a second stimulus check. Congressional leaders unveiled a roughly $900 billion stimulus deal on Sunday that calls for another round of direct payments to help Americans get through the coronavirus pandemic. The $600 checks are half as large as the $1,200 payments lawmakers approved under the CARES Act in late March, but they could give many people a short-term financial lifeline within weeks.

News- US
http://youtu.be/SlXQeSVxgaA A Texas congressman is blaming a security breach for following a $1,500-an-hour New York City escort on Twitter — telling critics to “grow up” after being called out for the unseemly link. Rep. Dan Crenshaw — a married Republican and former Navy SEAL who was elected to Congress in 2018 — scoffed at claims that he followed escort Olivia May intentionally on Thursday when a reporter posted a screenshot showing that he was among her 13,600 followers. “Grow up people, no one on my staff, nor I, purposefully followed this account,” Crenshaw, 36, tweeted. “Thanks for flagging. Passwords changed.” May, whose profile is set to private, bills herself as “your favorite long legged girl next door” and a “lingerie lover” and “globe trotter.” #DanCrenshaw The New York ...

Wearing a used mask could be worse than no mask amid COVID-19: study | New York Post

Wearing a used mask could be worse than no mask amid COVID-19: study | New York Post

News- US
http://youtu.be/mQDvbUAYg-E Wearing a used mask could be more dangerous than not wearing one at all when it comes to warding off COVID-19, a new study has found. A new three-layer surgical mask is 65 percent efficient in filtering particles in the air — but when used, that number drops to 25 percent, according to the study published Tuesday in the Physics of Fluids. Researchers from the University of Massachusetts Lowell and California Baptist University say that masks slow down airflow, making people more susceptible to breathing in particles — and a dirty face mask can’t effectively filter out the tiniest of droplets.
