with 3-minute Pa. stop and almost
no talk of stimulus bill 9 replies
President Biden on Tuesday kicked off his “Help is Here” tour of the nation, intended to promote his just-signed $1.9 trillion COVID-19 stimulus bill, but he hardly mentioned the bill on what was supposed to be the first leg of a “victory lap.” Biden spoke for about 3 minutes with the owners of Smith Flooring Inc in Chester, Pa., before reporters were escorted out, with almost no mention of his first major legislative achievement as president.(Snip) The president—who picked his ear and scratched his head during an at-times awkward first tour stop—said this month he wanted to aggressively promote
Albany, N.Y.—On Monday, Assemblymember Jon Rivera and Senator Sean Ryan announced that funding for the New York State Enhanced Services to Refugees Program had “overwhelming support” in both Legislative houses. As part of the 2021 state budget, the Assembly approved $3 million in funding. The next steps for the approval process are pending. The Enhanced Services to Refugees Program provides services so that refugees can successfully integrate into local communities.(Snip) Rivera and Ryan say refugees and immigrants have been instrumental in reversing the population decline in cities like Buffalo. Over 90% settle in Upstate New York, which makes the Program “vital” to the region.
A GoFundMe page set up to pay off the mortgage on Meghan Markle and Prince Harry’s $14.6 million California estate has gone bust—after raising a measly $110, a report says. Anastasia Hanson, 56, of California told Britain’s the Sun that she started the fundraising effort because she seriously felt sorry for the multimillionaire royal couple—after Harry publicly whined to Oprah Winfrey about being financially cut off by Buckingham Palace. “When they came to the USA, they were without jobs and with limited funds,” said Hanson, who lives about 25 minutes from the princely pair’s palatial estate in swanky Montecito.

A movie about the life and times of Hunter Biden is in the works, but it’s not coming out of Hollywood. Conservative Irish filmmakers Ann McElhinney and Phelim McAleer announced Tuesday the launch of a 60-day crowdfunding campaign aimed at raising $2.5 million for “My Son Hunter,” a film “based on the true story” of President Biden’s 51-year-old son. “It’s about Hunter Biden and his corrupt business dealings,” Mr. McAleer said in a video post on MySonHunter.com.(Snip) The film’s website shows images of the president and Hunter Biden along with the U.S. and Chinese flags and a pair of pole dancers
A Democratic senator suggested that the FBI background check on sexual assault claims against Brett Kavanaugh, then a nominee to the Supreme Court, in 2018 may have been “fake” and wants newly minted Attorney General Merrick Garland to assist in an investigation, according to a report Tuesday.
Sen. Sheldon Whitehouse (D-RI), a member of the Senate Judiciary Committee that held Kavanaugh’s contentious confirmation hearing, is calling on Garland to assist the Senate as it questions how thoroughly the FBI conducted the investigation, the Guardian reported.(Snip) In a letter to Garland, Whitehouse said some witnesses wanted to talk to the FBI
A Florida teen and her mother have been accused of rigging a high school homecoming court election by hacking students' accounts and casting fake ballots. Emily Rose Grover, 17, and Laura Rose Carroll, 50, were arrested on Monday in Pensacola after investigators uncovered their alleged plot to tamper with the election at Tate High School so that the teen would win homecoming queen last fall. The Florida Department of Law Enforcement (FDLE) said it opened the investigation in November after officials with the Escambia County School District (ECSD) reported that hundreds of student accounts had been accessed without authorization.
The number of illegal immigrants trying to jump the border is on pace for the highest rate in two decades, Homeland Security Secretary Alejandro Mayorkas said Tuesday, delivering a sobering account just a day before he is to face Congress. He placed blame for the situation on Mexico’s lessening cooperation, on the conditions in other countries, on the coronavirus and on the Trump administration—but did not mention President Biden’s changes, which many migrants themselves are citing as their reason for coming now.
In particular, Mr. Mayorkas said the Trump team left “no plans” for protecting Border Patrol agents and others on the front lines
An arrest warrant was issued for a woman who refused to wear a mask at a Texas bank, saying to a police officer: “What are you going to do, arrest me?” Police issued a warrant for the arrest of Terry Wright, 65, of Grants Pass, Oregon. The incident on Thursday at a Bank of America in Galveston was captured by the officer’s body camera, the Galveston County Daily News reported. Police said they had obtained an arrest warrant on resisting arrest and criminal trespassing charges. Greg Abbott, the Texas governor, has ended statewide orders requiring people to wear face masks in public places, declaring
It began with the flicker of a flashlight, muffled voices and the gentle splash of paddles carrying softly across the stillness of the Rio Grande Valley. As the silhouette drew closer to the shore we could suddenly see the bow of a small boat and the faces of women and children peering back at us though the gloom. Moments later the raft reached the riverbank and the dozen or so occupants began clambering on to U.S. soil with dreams of starting a new life in Joe Biden's America.(Snip) Over a two-hour period we watched in disbelief as the three-man trafficking crew
Gov. Andrew Cuomo was physically “aroused” when he allegedly hugged a press aide more than two decades ago, the woman said Monday. Karen Hinton—who first went public against Cuomo on March 6—detailed the alleged incident during an interview on WNYC radio. “He approached me, embraced too tightly, too long and was aroused,” Hinton said. “I felt extremely uncomfortable and actually shocked. Nothing had ever happened that way between the two of us.”(Snip) At the time, Cuomo was then-President Bill Clinton’s housing secretary and Hinton was working as a consultant after having been employed by the Department of Housing and Urban Development
U.S. Sen. Bob Menendez has returned home to Hudson County. The former Union City mayor, assemblyman, state senator and congressman has moved his North Jersey office from Newark to Jersey City’s waterfront.

His new office is located at Harborside 3 on Hudson Street, at Exchange Place. His office had been in the Gateway Center in Newark, where the office of Cory Booker, New Jersey’s other senator, is located. “We are going to give more New Jerseyans access to a U.S. Senate office
“The View” co-host Joy Behar claimed Monday that Antifa is “an idea” and “not a real thing” during a heated discussion with co-host Meghan McCain.
During an on-air discussion about the Jan. 6 Capitol Hill riot, Ms. McCain noted the ongoing Antifa-led riots in Portland, Oregon, and how the left-wing, so-called “anti-fascist” movement has a history of property destruction and violence against law enforcement.(Snip) Ms. Behar responded by citing FBI Director Christopher Wray, who has said Antifa is “not a group or an organization” but “a movement or an ideology” that was not involved

INDIANAPOLIS — Her family said Jeanettrius Moore worked hard at a beauty supply shop to support herself and two little girls and appreciated the most recent $1,400 stimulus check issued to help Americans recover from the COVID-19 pandemic.
The father of her youngest baby, Malik Halfacre, thought he should get half.
“He wanted some of Jeanettrius’ tax money, stimulus money,” said Wendy Johnson, a cousin who heard Jeanettrius’ account of what led up to a quadruple murder in a house in the 300 block of Randolph Street Saturday night. “She had just got her money, and he wanted half of her money.

The Centers for Disease Control guidelines on social distancing may be changing again after a new study shows six feet of distance to avoid the spread of Wuhan coronavirus may not be necessary.
During an interview with CNN over the weekend, Dr. Anthony Fauci acknowledged three feet of distance may be sufficient to reopen schools that remain closed.
"There's this new study from researchers in Massachusetts, just out this week, it found no significant difference of coronavirus spread in schools where there was six feet of distancing vs. three feet of distancing. But that six foot requirement, that's one of the main hurdles to reopening schools.
A group of current and former teachers and others in Loudoun County, Virginia compiled a lengthy list of parents suspected of disagreeing with school system actions, including its teaching of controversial racial concepts — with a stated purpose in part to “infiltrate,” to use “hackers” to silence parents’ communications, and to “expose these people publicly.”Members of a 624-member private Facebook group called “Anti-Racist Parents of Loudoun County” named parents and plotted fundraising and other offline work. Some used pseudonyms, but The Daily Wire has identified them as a who’s who of the affluent jurisdiction outside D.C., including schools staff and elected officials.

With few other viable options, Texas Democrats are hoping that next year former Rep. Beto O’Rourke challenges Republican incumbent Greg Abbott for governor.
The El Paso Democrat is considering running for governor, saying that Abbott has failed Texas during the pandemic. He later criticized his handling of the February winter storm that left millions of Texans without power and water. That has fueled speculation that O’Rourke is all but in the governor’s race, even though he’s just as likely to opt against the underdog campaign.

Last June, the city of Portland, Oregon, hopped on the “defund the police” bandwagon. Now, it is flooded with gun violence, and the mayor is already backtracking from his support for the cuts.
Mayor Ted Wheeler has requested $2 million in emergency funding for the police department, pointing directly to the surge in gun violence. At this point last year, Portland had seen just one homicide. This year, that number is 20, with 208 shootings in the city so far.
Wheeler backed the Portland City Council’s decision to cut $15 million from the police budget last June, which included disbanding police units that investigate gun violence. Predictably, that move backfired

Why can't a bLACK man wear a backpack in a store without being accused of shoplifting? Shame that the officer got shot; gave Kenya Jenkem a few chances too many before drawing his gun, probably because bLACK shoplifters must be extended every risky courtesy. Also, why put police officers at risk and waste their time for shoplifting cases when the courts simply set them free with barely a slap on the wrist? Let them steal; BLM.
