A driver smashed through a barrier outside the US Capitol and struck two cops, and he was shot by police when he got out and pulled a knife, according to officials and reports. All three were taken to the hospital—with the suspect in police custody—as the building was placed on lockdown during the 1 p.m. chaos. The incident took place at a vehicle checkpoint on the north side of the Capitol along Independence Avenue in Washington DC, police said. Sources told NBC News that the driver got out of the car with a knife after hitting the officers, and police shot him.

Students and staff have no shot of returning to Cornell this fall if they don’t get the COVID-19 vaccine, the school said in a statement. “With the recent announcements of expanded vaccine eligibility in New York and other states, and increasing vaccine production, it is likely that all members of our community will be able to obtain vaccination sometime this spring or summer,” Cornell President Martha Pollack and Provost Michael Kotlikoff wrote Friday. “Accordingly, Cornell intends to require vaccination for students returning to Ithaca, Geneva, and Cornell Tech campuses for the fall semester.” Exceptions will be made for those with religious and medical exemptions,
A man wielding a metal post came into Plaza Sundries, an Asian-owned convenience store near the Charlotte Transit Center, on Tuesday and trashed the business while yelling racial slurs. It was hardly the first time an incident of that kind has happened, said Mark Sung, whose parents own the shop and were working there at the time.(Snip) Surveillance footage of the incident shows a man coming into the store, pulling a rack full of merchandise to the floor and swinging a street sign post trying to break the glass on the refrigerators. Customers file out of the store, some jumping over
A 'time limit' of less than a year could be imposed on the vaccine passport scheme to head off a Tory revolt on the issue, the Mail can reveal. Boris Johnson will give the green light on Monday to the development of a system of 'vaccine certification' as he looks to reinvigorate the economy. Ministers believe the scheme may be essential in reopening venues such as theatres and stadiums which rely on large crowds.
But the idea of creating a new 'Checkpoint Britain' has led to a fierce cross-party backlash, with 72 MPs yesterday signing a pledge to oppose the 'divisive and discriminatory'
Vermont Gov. Phil Scott has come under fire for a newly announced statewide vaccination protocol moving minorities to the head of the line based solely on their race. The Republican governor announced Thursday that Black, Indigenous and people of color, known as BIPOC, may now sign up to be vaccinated against COVID-19, two weeks before the state plans to make available vaccines to anyone over the age of 16.(Snip) Also eligible to be inoculated immediately are “English language learners and people in immigrant/refugee communities,” along with people over 50; those 16 and older with high-risk medical conditions; parents of children
Tacoma, Wash.—Tacoma police said Friday that they have arrested a teen suspect in connection with a suspected hate crime case in which an elderly Korean-American couple were attacked nearly five months ago, an assault that was captured on video and widely shared on social media. Authorities did not identify the 15-year-old boy because he is a juvenile. Police said in a written statement that the suspect would face a second-degree assault charge for the incident, which occurred on Nov. 19, 2020.(Snip) Radio Hankook producer Enoch Choi said his station launched a new campaign Thursday to speak out against hate
A reputed Bronx gangbanger was busted for a barbaric four-day rampage where he slashed and smashed eight random victims—including a 75-year-old man sliced while sitting on his walker and a homeless man beaten into a coma, authorities charged Friday. The savage spree last August ended with the arrest of JayQawn Byers, 22, who then punched a fellow detainee inside a holding pen at the 47th Precinct, said Bronx District Attorney Darcel Clark.
He was indicted on a staggering 66 criminal charges, including seven counts of attempted murder for his bloody onslaught targeting seven local men. “We will seek justice for the victims

league enters political fray 18 replies
Donald Trump Jr. has some advice for the Republican Party as another major league sports organization sprints onto the political field of play: “Grow some balls.” The Republican’s blunt statement comes in the wake of Major League Baseball’s decision to pull the 2021 All-Star Game and draft out of Atlanta in response to Georgia’s newly passed election legislation. Republicans in Congress should immediately move to repeal the @MLB’s anti-trust exemption,” former President Trump’s son wrote Friday. “Grow some balls and fight fire with fire.” MLB Commissioner Rob Manfred sided with liberal politicians who claim SB 202 is an unconscionable erosion of voting rights
MLB is taking its ball and leaving Georgia. The league announced on Friday that it is moving the 2021 All-Star Game out of Atlanta as backlash grows over a new Georgia law that is seen as an attack on voter access.
“I have determined the best way to demonstrate our value as a sport is relocating this year’s All-Star Game and MLB Draft,” commissioner Rob Manfred said in a statement. “MLB fundamentally supports voting rights for all Americans and opposes restrictions to the ballot box.”
Manfred’s decision comes as a growing number of corporations, including Atlanta-based Delta and Coca Cola,
Boris Johnson faces the biggest challenge of his premiership to date if he tries to ram through controversial plans for vaccine passports that have incensed MPs across parties. Forty-one Tory backbenchers—enough to wipe out the Prime Minister's majority—are among 72 MPs including Labour and Lib Dem figures who have signed a pledge railing against the 'divisive and discriminatory' scheme.(Snip) Downing Street insists no plans for domestic vaccine passports have been confirmed, but ministers have been seen to be pitch-rolling for their use in recent weeks and the scheme is reportedly a 'done deal'.

Amazon has joined the chorus of corporations condemning Republican efforts to tighten election laws in Texas and Georgia. The e-commerce colossus said it opposes measures “aimed at restricting the ability of Americans to vote” as the Lone Star State’s Senate passed a bill that would limit access to mail-in ballots and ban drive-thru voting. “It has been fifty-six years since the Voting Rights Act became law, yet efforts to disenfranchise Black people and other minorities continue to this day,” Amazon exec Jay Carney, who served as ex-President Barack Obama’s press secretary, said in a statement Thursday.
Former House Speaker John Boehner claims the GOP thought ex-President Barack Obama was a 'secret Kenyan Muslim traitor,' he called Sen. Ted Cruz a 'reckless a**hole' and said Republican 'morons' flooded Congress in 2010.
In Boehner's new book, 'On the House: A Washington Memoir,' the chain-smoking, red wine-sipping former top Republican doesn't hold back when judging members of his own party. Boehner ascended to the speakership in 2011 after the Tea Party movement helped the GOP capture the House majority two years into Obama's tenure.(Snip) Boehner complained about the tone of the new Tea Party-tied members.

Major American business groups have lined up against President Joe Biden's $2.3 trillion infrastructure plan – even after many of them got behind his $1.9 trillion coronavirus relief effort.The opposition signals the headwinds the White House is up against promoting a package the Biden is designating as the next big push of his agenda, and one that he said Friday would create 19 million jobs.The U.S. Chamber of Commerce went after the plan as 'dangerously misguided.'

WASHINGTON — If America is dominated by car culture and the call of the open road, there is a big reason for that: Over the past 65 years, the United States has spent nearly $10 trillion in public funds on highways and roads and just one-quarter of that on subways, buses and passenger rail. But President Joe Biden’s $2 trillion infrastructure plan, unveiled this week, represents one of the most ambitious efforts yet to challenge the centrality of the automobile in American life, by proposing to tilt federal spending far more toward public transportation and coax more people out of
Major League Baseball has been under intense pressure from Democrats to move the annual All-Star Game out of Atlanta over Georgia’s election integrity law and on Friday, the league caved.On the second day of the 2021 season, MLB Commissioner Rob Manfred sent a clear message to all MLB fans that his league takes its marching orders from activists and politicians.According to a statement from the commish; “Over the last week, we have engaged in thoughtful conversations with Clubs, former and current players, the Players Association, and The Players Alliance, among others, to listen to their views,” said Manfred. “I have decided that the best way to demonstrate our values

Little Petey Buttigieg is now playing in the big leagues, having made the tremendous leap from ineffectual mayor of a crime-ridden city to Transportation Secretary of the United States of America. To make a point about alternative transportation, he rode a bicycle to his first White House cabinet meeting – after first having several burly men drive him near the White House and then escort him and his bike. This kind of theater is typical for leftists, who often seem incapable of distinguishing fantasy from reality.
Last week, Little Petey (who always reminds me of a cross between Alfred “What, Me Worry?” Newman and Beaver Cleaver)
On Wednesday, former Communist Party activist and black nationalist Angela Davis spoke at a webinar for an elite California prep school, where she told the K-12 students watching online that it was incumbent upon them to “dismantle capitalism,” as reported by the Washington Free Beacon.The “diversity and inclusion”-themed webinar, titled the CommunityEd Series, was hosted by the Heads-Royce School, a prep school that costs just over $47,000 a year in tuition.“Ultimately, I think we’re going to have to dismantle capitalism if we really want to move in a progressive direction,” Davis said to the impressionable students on the final day of the webinar. “If we want our children and
Former President Donald Trump called for people to boycott Major League Baseball (MLB) on Friday night after the league caved to pressure from leftists to cancel the All Star Game, which was scheduled to take place in Atlanta, after Georgia passed a law to tighten up voting security around the state.
Trump’s statement comes after MLB Commissioner Robert D. Manfred, Jr. announced earlier in the day that the league was moving both All-Star Game and MLB Draft to a new host city following a misleading pressure campaign from leftists about the state’s new laws.
“Baseball is already losing tremendous numbers of fans, and now they leave Atlanta with their All-Star Game because
Don't call it cancel culture, call it cancel careerism. Nearly 140 documentary filmmakers have signed onto a letter given to PBS executives, suggesting the service may provide an unfair level of support to white creators, facing a "systemic failure to fulfill (its) mandate for a diversity of voices."
Titled "A Letter to PBS From Viewers Like Us," the missive references Ken Burns, arguably one of PBS' biggest non-fiction stars and creator of popular projects like Baseball, Jazz, The Civil War and an upcoming six-hour program called Hemingway.
The knife-wielding suspect who mowed down two Capitol police officers, killing one and leaving the other critically injured, before being shot dead has now been identified as a 25-year-old Nation of Islam follower. Noah Green, 25, who described himself as a 'Follower of Farrakhan' on his now-removed Facebook page, was identified by NBC and the New York Post as the perpetrator behind the deadly attack on the US Capitol Friday. Green allegedly killed Capitol Police Officer Billy Evans, an 18-year veteran of the force, after mowing him and another unidentified officer down with his blue Nissan Altima. Green, who was from Indiana but has ties to Virginia,
