I very seriously doubt that Kamala Harris plays poker, as she has that annoyingly obvious “tell.”
I’ll call it her “Hackle.”
Our friends over at Legal Insurrection said as much when she was just a Vice Presidential candidate. Oh for those halcyon days!
Kamala Harris has a habit of launching into peals of laughter when she is asked questions, even serious ones. It’s likely a nervous tic, and it’s possible that she doesn’t even realize that she does it.
In the world of gambling, this is called a tell. An unconscious and often uncontrollable behavior that serves as a clue to others that a player is bluffing or lying.

U.S. Special Operations Command is investigating its new chief of diversity and inclusion over social media posts criticizing police and former President Donald Trump, officials confirmed Monday.
SOCOM welcomed Richard Torres-Estrada in a tweet Thursday.
"We look forward to his contribution in enhancing the capabilities and effectiveness of #SOF through diversity of talent, helping us recruit the best of the best. #QuietProfessionals," SOCOM said in the tweet. But within days, critics were roasting Torres-Estrada for some of his public Facebook posts, particularly one last summer that implicitly compared President Trump to Adolf Hitler.

A majority of Americans say they view "cancel culture" as a threat to their freedom, according to a new Harvard CAPS-Harris Poll survey released exclusively to The Hill on Monday.
Sixty-four percent of respondents said that there is "a growing cancel culture" that is a threat to their freedom, while 36 percent said they did not view it as a threat to their freedom.
Additionally, the poll found that 36 percent of Americans said cancel culture is a "big problem," while 32 percent called it a "moderate problem." Another 20 percent said it was a "small problem" and 13 percent said it is "not a problem."

London has seen zero coronavirus deaths for the first time in six months, according to data released by Public Health England (PHE).
Government figures showed that on March 28th, there were no deaths from the Chinese coronavirus in London for people who have received a positive coronavirus test over the previous 28 days.
Britain’s capital city was one of the main epicentres of the pandemic during the first wave of the virus last year, and has seen twelve per cent of all recorded coronavirus deaths in the country.

A woman described in detail Monday how Gov. Andrew Cuomo grabbed her face, “manhandled” her and forcibly kissed her while touring her flood-damaged home in 2017 — saying he did so in a “highly sexual manner.”
“The whole thing was so strange and inappropriate and still makes me nervous and afraid because of his power and position,” said Sherry Vill, a 55-year-old married mother of three, as she spoke out in an afternoon briefing alongside lawyer Gloria Allred. “I am still afraid of him, but I am no longer willing to remain silent.”
The alleged encounter occurred in May 2017

This has been a long time coming. Ghislaine Maxwell, who allegedly served as Jeffrey Epstein’s massage scheduler and procurer of young girls, has been charged with sex trafficking of a 14-year-old. Ghislaine Maxwell, the longtime associate of Jeffrey Epstein, was charged on Monday for the first time with sex-trafficking of a minor, as federal prosecutors accused her of grooming a 14-year-old girl to engage in sexual acts with Mr. Epstein and later paying her…
The new charges against Ms. Maxwell go further than those contained in an earlier indictment that accused her of helping Mr. Epstein recruit, groom and ultimately sexually abuse girls, but did not include sex-trafficking allegations.

Earlier today, Joe Biden blasted governors who had relaxed restrictions and/or mask mandates on the Wuhan coronavirus, asking that they reinstate their mandates.
Even though he was reading, he seemed tired and rambling. Here, he forgets how long he’s been in office and treats that time as though that’s the only period of time in which we have been fighting the virus, under him. What does he say about those states who have reopened like Texas and dropped any government mandated restrictions?
He says that states should pause their re-opening efforts. So basically he would have us masked and locked down in perpetuity?

Joe Biden can’t always speak in full, coherent sentences. He has trouble with stairs. Half the time, I’m not sure if he knows what office he holds, yet, he has a 53.4% average approval rating, according to RealClearPolitics.
According to CNN, this makes Bumblin’ Biden “popular” and CNN’s analysts think they’ve cracked the code on why: “He’s addressing the issues Americans care about, while his weaker issues are those that most Americans don’t seem as worried about.”
His strongest ratings just happen to be regarding COVID-19. Now, why would Joe Biden be ranking highly on COVID-19? What exactly has he done? CNN cited the COVID-19 relief package

Hours after CDC Director Dr. Michelle Walensky was on the verge of tears warning of an “impending doom” of increasing coronavirus cases, Associated Press correspondent and MSNBC contributor Jonathan Lemire took her marching orders Monday afternoon to President Biden and White House Press Secretary Jen Psaki and pressing them to urge states to halt reopening efforts.
For a liberal media and public health community that’s realizing their death grip on the American people was slipping away, it seemed as though they’ve found their new narrative to keep an increasingly vaccinated country from returning to pre-pandemic life.
Lemire led off the Q&A of the White House press briefing by gushing over Walensky’s “impassioned

President Trump has had it with taking shots from Dr. Fraudci and, most recently, Deborah Birx. Today he sent out this email, telling his side of the story. Quotable quote: “…Dr. Fauci, who said he was an athlete in college but couldn’t throw a baseball even close to home plate…”
Based on their interviews, I felt it was time to speak up about Dr. Fauci and Dr. Birx, two self-promoters trying to reinvent history to cover for their bad instincts and faulty recommendations, which I fortunately almost always overturned. They had bad policy decisions that would have left our country open to China and others, closed to

President Biden called on governors and local leaders to reinstate coronavirus-related mask mandates during a White House briefing Monday, before announcing several other vaccine-related directives.
"I’m reiterating my call for every governor, mayor and local leader to maintain and reinstate the mask mandate," Biden said. "Please, this is not politics, reinstate the mandate if you let it down."
The call follows actions taken by several states to lift mask requirements earlier this month and ease business restrictions, such as Texas and Mississippi, which drew sharp criticism amid early-stage vaccine rollouts and the spread of highly transmissible coronavirus variants.

ALBANY — Every New Yorker age 16 and older will soon be eligible for vaccination, Gov. Andrew M. Cuomo announced Monday.
The governor said people ages 30 and up will become eligible for vaccination starting Tuesday at 8 a.m. People 16 and up will become eligible starting next Tuesday, April 6, he said. “Today we take a monumental step forward in the fight to beat COVID-19. Beginning March 30, all New Yorkers age 30 or older will be able to be vaccinated, and all New Yorkers age 16 or older will be eligible on April 6, well ahead of the May 1 deadline set by the White House," Cuomo said.
