Shocking video captures the moment a city Homeless Services cop gets slugged and knocked out by a resident at a troubled Harlem shelter. The footage—taken inside the Parkview Inn on West 110th Street last week and obtained by The Post—shows the officer first confronting the irate man in the hallway.
The officer is then seen trying to calm down the suspect. But the man grabs the officer’s mask and pulls it off his mouth and begins hurling punches, according to the video.(Snip) Another officer then yells at the attacker to stay down while holding a can of pepper spray

Award-winning photojournalist John Moore blasted the Biden administration for giving "zero access" to the media to observe Customs and Border Protection operations at the southern border. Moore took to Twitter to lament the lack of transparency as a surge of migrants trying to enter the country has put a strain on resources. "I respectfully ask US Customs and Border Protection to stop blocking media access to their border operations," Moore tweeted Friday. "I have photographed CBP under Bush, Obama and Trump but now—zero access is granted to media.(Snip) "There’s no modern precedent for a full physical ban on media access

The Biden administration was thoroughly embarrassed and unprepared in their first diplomatic meeting with the Chinese delegation yesterday. On U.S. soil, the Chinese mocked U.S. Secretary of State Antony Blinken and National Security Advisor Jake Sullivan. “Many people within the United States actually have little confidence in the democracy of the United States,” top Chinese diplomat Yang Jiechi told the Biden administration, citing the Black Lives Matter movement. The Chinese brazenly violated protocol for their 2-minute openings, each extending their comments beyond the given time. Mr. Yang spoke for 16 minutes. Instead of refuting the comments outright–and turning the tables on China,

Can anyone just tell us who the hell is running our federal government right now? You literally get censored out of existence for suggesting that anyone other than Joe Biden won the election last November. Yet there is no evidence today—four months later—that Mr. Biden is actually serving as president. A weird Tron video this week appeared to show Mr. Biden—looking every bit the part of Max Headroom—interfacing with House Democrats in Congress. Digitally, of course. He droned on for a few minutes using scripted psycho-pablum, sitting alone at a table. The table was empty except for his instruction manual.

Kenny Wayne Shepherd was stripped Thursday of his nomination for 2021 Blues Rock Artist of the Year over concerns involving the renowned guitarist and his usage of Confederate imagery. The Blues Foundation said it rescinded Mr. Shepherd‘s nomination in light of “continuing revelations of representations of the Confederate flag” on his automobile, guitars and elsewhere. Mr. Shepherd, a two-time Blues Awards winner, said in a statement the decision was made because of concerns involving a replica he owns of the “General Lee” car from the “Dukes of Hazzard” TV series. The 43-year-old blues guitarist acknowledged his Dodge Charger had

Former President George W. Bush said in a new interview he’s “still disturbed” by the U.S. Capitol riot. “I can’t remember what I was doing, but… I was sick to my stomach… to see our nation’s Capitol being stormed by hostile forces,” Mr. Bush told Texas Tribune CEO Evan Smith. “And it really disturbed me to the point where I did put out a statement, and I’m still disturbed when I think about it. "It undermines rule of law and the ability to express yourself in peaceful ways in the public square,” he said. “This was an expression that was not peaceful.”

After 85 years of cheap hospital bills, moderate stock earnings and maturing “Christmas funds” (whatever that means), Hasbro now plans to bring Monopoly into the increasingly “woke” 21st century. The game-maker has decided to update its 16 Community Chest cards, which featured outdated prompts such as winning a “beauty contest,” actually receiving a “tax refund” or the now-rarely seen “bank error in your favor.”
In their place are more contemporary cards that evoke community service and social awareness. Swaps could include a reward for “shopping local all week,” rescuing a shelter pet or helping tend the community garden.

I've been pushing the Max Headroom angle too. Why not? Most people don't seem bothered at all by having a weak show pResident who'd be more at his own level playing simple video games.
