The announcement comes as the federal government set a directive to have vaccine doses available for all adults by the end of May.
A woman shoved an Asian American City Council candidate down a Manhattan subway staircase in a random attack last week, the candidate told The Post.
Candidate Susan Lee said she was in the stairwell at the Oculus subway station when she spotted the woman staring at her. “You know she has this mischievous look on her face, and I was just thinking like, ‘Oh gosh, this isn’t good,’” Lee, 42, recalled of the March 17 incident.
“She pushed me,” she said, adding that she grabbed the handrail to brace herself. The council candidate said she isn’t sure if the woman, who appeared to be homeless,
Pfizer Inc and its German partner BioNTech SE have begun testing their COVID-19 vaccine in children under age 12. On Wednesday, Pfizer spokesperson Sharon Castillo said the first volunteers in the early-stage trial were given their first injections. The vaccine was authorized by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) in late December for those aged 16 and older.
The companies hope they will be able to expand vaccination to that age range by early 2022. The pediatric trial, which will include children as young as six months old, follows a similar one launched by Moderna Inc last week. The safety of their

President Biden’s nominee for FEMA administrator, Deanne Criswell, told senators Thursday that she’s unfamiliar with what the agency is doing since it was summoned to help address a migrant surge along the US-Mexico border.
Criswell, currently commissioner of New York City Emergency Management, said she hasn’t been briefed by Biden administration officials on the Federal Emergency Management Agency’s role. “I’ve not been briefed on their specific activities that they’re performing,” Criswell testified to Sen. Rob Portman (R-Ohio) at her confirmation hearing before the Senate Homeland Security Committee.
She added: “I’m not familiar with the details of exactly what support FEMA is providing,
Authorities on Wednesday night moved to close down a homeless encampment in Echo Park that has become a highly charged test of city leaders’ struggle to balance constituents’ demands for clean streets and public spaces with the ever-growing tragedy of people who have no homes. Scores of police moved into the area, where they were met by more than 200 protesters who oppose the sweep. The Los Angeles Police Department repeatedly told protesters to leave, and by early Thursday morning, the crowd had dwindled and the protest had mostly wound down.(Snip)There were some clashes, with police seen shoving some protesters and some bottles

A British university is drawing fire for its plans to erect a life-sized statue of 18-year-old Swedish activist Greta Thunberg on its Hampshire campus, according to a report. Winchester University plans to unveil the likeness of the spunky environmental activist on March 30—but has some questioning why. “What a total waste of money,” local resident Simon Dixon told the Hampshire Chronicle. “Total waste of money. I wonder whose bright idea that was.” University student Henry Osbourne wondered why he and others at the school “weren’t given a vote over who to have a statue of?”

Civil rights leader and MSNBC host Al Sharpton threatened to accuse Sens. Joe Manchin of West Virginia and Kyrsten Sinema of Arizona of "supporting racism" over their approval of the Senate filibuster. "The pressure that we are going to put on Sinema and Manchin is calling [the filibuster] racist and saying that they are, in effect, supporting racism," Sharpton told Politico. "Why would they be wedded to something that has those results? Their voters need to know that." Sharpton is part of a larger push from the left to eliminate the filibuster in order to pass Democrats' election and voting

The U.S. Supreme Court on Wednesday will hear oral argument in Caniglia v. Strom, a case that could have sweeping consequences for policing, due process, and mental health, with the Biden Administration and attorneys general from nine states urging the High Court to uphold warrantless gun confiscation. But what would ultimately become a major Fourth Amendment case began with an elderly couple’s spat over a coffee mug. In August 2015, 68-year-old Edward Caniglia joked to Kim, his wife of 22 years, that he didn’t use a certain coffee mug after his brother-in-law had used it because he “might catch a case of dishonesty.” That quip quickly spiraled

Joe Biden sold the American people a bill of goods in 2020. He is not a moderate, and he will make his mark no matter what damage it does to our institutions, traditions, or country. Biden is not even a Trojan horse for the radical Left. He is leading the charge to transform the country.
Remember how Joe Biden pushed back on Kamala Harris in a debate? Biden said he had no executive authority to ban assault weapons, and that there were many limits on changes using that tool. Compare that to the statement of Press Secretary Jen Psaki this week:

SACRAMENTO, Calif. — The mayor of Oakland, California, on Tuesday announced a privately funded program that will give low-income families of color $500 per month with no rules on how they can spend it. The program is the latest experiment with a “guaranteed income,” an idea that giving poor people a set amount of money each month helps ease the stresses of poverty that often lead to poor health while hindering their ability to find full-time work. The idea isn’t new, but it’s having a revival across the U.S. after some mayors launched small, temporary programs across the country in
