Bill de Blasio said Monday he was stunned that a grand jury didn’t indict a controversial Staten Island bar owner for driving into a deputy sheriff. Presti had been repeatedly cited by the city sheriff’s office for refusing to adhere to state coronavirus lockdown restrictions, declaring the bar “an autonomous zone” exempt from the mandate. New York City Sheriff Joseph Fucito told The Post Sunday that he had reported that Matos suffered “broken tibias” because of a misdiagnosis from doctors.

California Gov. Gavin Newsom praised his state's efforts to rein in the coronavirus pandemic Monday as he lifted California's regional stay-at-home orders, insisting that the decision was based on science and data The lifting of the regional orders means that outdoor dining may resume, and hair and hair salons are permitted to reopen with very limited indoor capacity -- though many other indoor business activities will still be restricted as the state reverts to its color-coded tier-based system for assessing the threat by county. The vast majority of California counties are still within the most restrictive purple tier, and counties...

Joe Biden’s “Religions of Love” Is A Hashtag for ExclusionJoe Biden’s “Religions of Love” Is A Hashtag for ExclusionThe New York Times published an encomium on Joe Biden’s Catholic Faith, written by Elizabeth Dias who covers faith topics for the newspaper. Dias calls Biden “the most religiously observant commander in chief in half a century.” She makes a big effort to show that Biden’s abortionist stances don’t contradict her assessment but rather are in keeping with Francis’ new Church which according to Dias - she repeats this several times - is not focused on “sexual politics” as if killing babies...

Joe Biden had the Office of the President-Elect; now Donald Trump has the Office of the Former President. Mr. Trump established the office in Palm Beach County, Florida, where his Mar-A-Lago estate is located to “carry on the agenda of the Trump Administration through advocacy, organizing, and public activism,” a press release from the new office said. The office gives the ex-president a formal vehicle to coordinate future public appearances, statements and official activities. The office might be especially valuable since he is banned from the social-media outlets he had used to great effect while president. “President Trump will always...

There are way too many people suffering from serious side-effects from these vaccines. There is a lot of information coming out about these vaccines, which have been pushed out without proper testing because this was a manufactured political emergency. Thirty people died after being vaccinated in Norway, prompting international concern outside the USA of course. Then there were nine Catholic bishops who all died of COVID in the same week? Meanwhile, a study in Italy showed that tumor patients had already developed antibodies to COVID-19 back in September 2019 showing that it was around before it is generally believed to...

Chelsea Clinton has been ridiculed on Twitter after she revealed a highly observant comment made by her four-year-old son about Joe Biden's inauguration. Clinton, the only child of Bill and Hillary Clinton, said she told her son Aidan that 'it's the 21st day of the 21st year in the 21st century'. Her son then responded immediately: 'Yeah, but it's cooler it's Joe Biden's first full day in the White House'. The post attracted attention from other Twitter users who responded with disbelief and ridicule that a four-year-old could have made such a comment. Omg!! My dog said the exact same...

Republican lawmakers in several states are introducing legislation to overhaul voting after the Democrats stole the 2020 election by flooding states with millions of mail-in ballots. The Democrats used Covid as a vehicle to usher in mail-in ballots, implement Zuckerberg ballot drop boxes and extend ballot counting for days and even weeks after Election Day in order to steal the election for Joe Biden. State lawmakers are now working to limit mail-in voting, require photo ID, clean up dirty voter rolls, end same-day voter registration and more.

When the conservatives take Congress again, one of their first task should be to impeach Clinton, Obama, Biden and anyone else that comes to mind.Can you impeach peelosi?

Aerospace entrepreneur Robert Bigelow made a cryptic announcement in September 2008 in a radio interview with George Knapp. Bigelow revealed that he had just created BAASS, a subsidiary of Bigelow Aerospace, and that BAASS had entered into a partnership with an unnamed entity to study the UFO mystery and related phenomena. The public didn’t know it at the time, but one week earlier, Bigelow had signed a contract with the Defense Intelligence Agency to carry out an investigation under the umbrella of AAWSAP, the Advanced Aerospace Weapons Systems Application Program. The impetus for the program had occurred a year earlier...

Chief Justice John Roberts will not preside over Trump’s Senate impeachment trial.

A spokesman for Leahy said the decision on presiding over the trial is up to Senate Majority Leader Charles Schumer (D-N.Y.) and Minority Leader...

For two Virginia police officers who posed for a photo during the deadly U.S. Capitol insurrection, the reckoning has been swift and public: They were identified, charged with crimes and arrested. But for five Seattle officers the outcome is less clear. Their identities still secret, two are on leave and three continue to work while a police watchdog investigates whether their actions in the nation’s capital on Jan. 6 crossed the line from protected political speech to lawbreaking. ... They come from some of the country’s largest cities — three Los Angeles officers and a sheriff’s deputy, for instance —...

Union leaders shame parents, arguing that equity gaps will widen if parents pull their children out of public schools. Parents who bring their children together in small learning groups during the pandemic not only get labeled as eccentric, but also as segregationists guilty of promoting racial division in a nation with an ugly history of "separate but equal." The National Education Association lays out the talking point in a recent policy paper, and industry insiders have repeated the claim on dozens of platforms. Using loaded terms like "radical" and "unqualified," they have sounded the alarm about a massive parental revolt.

Goya Foods has voted to silence its pro-Trump CEO Robert Unanue following his recent television appearances questioning the results of the presidential election, The Post has learned. The Hispanic foods giant on Friday agreed to censure Unanue, 67, for controversial remarks in the wake of the deadly Jan. 6 invasion of the US Capitol building, including on Jan. 20 when he called Biden’s election “unverified” during an appearance on Fox Business. The vote by a majority of Goya’s nine-member board means Unanue must now obtain board permission before making any more media appearances, sources close to the situation said.

As the weeks rolled by I became increasingly conversant with these oddballs who were convinced we were on the edge of a massive election steal. They had meetings arranged with DHS in their state, and their briefings were taken at least twice in September by DHS and propelled up the chain of command…. only to be killed from Washington... Then November 3, the night of the election, everything they had been predicting to me would happen, happened. I am not going to make this essay a full account of the steal. ONE SHOULD SEE SIDNEY POWELL’S SUBSEQUENT LAWSUITS AT SCOTUS...

FARMINGTON — In terms of the sheer magnitude of work that will be taking place, Northern Utah’s 2021 road construction season will be unlike any other. Sometime this spring, the Utah Department of Transportation will be working simultaneously on three highway projects in Weber and Davis counties, worth a combined $1.4 billion. Two of the projects — the $163 million Interstate 15 Express Lanes work and the $493 million U.S. 89 reconstruction — are being carried over from 2020. The third, and most expensive, is the $750 million West Davis Corridor. To put the 2021 dollar value in perspective, UDOT...

Donald Trump made history in the days before his White House departure by becoming the only president to ever be impeached twice. Now, his upcoming trial in the Senate will be just as unprecedented. While some of the constitutional practices about the trial—which will kick off the week of February 8—will remain the same, many aspects of the process will look different from his first impeachment.
