The personnel will help triage patients at hospitals in Michigan, New Jersey, New Mexico, New York, Ohio and Rhode Island as the country sees more than 780,000 infections per day and hospitalizations reach an all-time peak, according to The New York Times. The deployment adds to the 800 federal personnel, including 350 military doctors and nurses, who were sent to two dozen states after omicron was detected around Thanksgiving.(Snip)Administration officials say they are deploying every tool in their arsenal, including booster shots

Goldman Sachs has delayed a mandatory return to the office by an additional two weeks for its US employees as the Omicron variant continues to surge across the country. In a Thursday memo, the Wall Street giant encouraged employees to work from home until Feb. 1. That’s pushed back from a return date of Jan. 18 that Goldman had targeted on Jan. 2. A spokesperson confirmed to The Post that Goldman was pushing back its return-to-office plans, noting that the new date coincides with the Feb. 1 date by which all Goldman employees must be boosted. The bank has also implemented bi-weekly testing.

An Illinois judge is facing heat for reversing an 18-year-old man’s sexual assault conviction at the teen’s sentencing last week—saying the 148 days he spent in jail since his arrest was enough, reports said. Adams County Judge Robert Adrian issued the stunning reversal last Monday after finding Drew Clinton guilty of one count of criminal sexual assault at an October bench trial, the Herald-Whig reported.(Snip)Clinton was convicted of sexually assaulting a 16-year-old girl at a graduation party last May. He had faced a mandatory minimum sentence of four years. Adrian’s decision came after Clinton’s attorneys filed two post-trial motions

Microsoft has included a new function in the latest version of its Word software that acts as a checker for inclusivity and offers PC alternatives to phrases which could upset others. Traditionally, Microsoft Word has offered tools to its 250million users such as checking software for spelling, punctuation and grammar.

There have now been 67 Ivermectin COVID-19 controlled studies that show a 67% improvement in COVID patients. There have been 298 Hydroxychloroquine studies that show a 64% improvement in patients for COVID-19 patients. Despite the science, Dr. Fauci and the medical elites have blocked the use of these effective treatments for coronavirus patients.(Snip)On Monday night Project Veritas released their latest investigation and it was a BOMBSHELL! Project Vertias released never before seen military documents regarding the origins of Covid-19, gain-of-function research, vaccines, potential treatments and the government’s effort to conceal everything. The newly released military documents contradict Dr. Fauci’s testimony under oath.

CNN’s ratings took a nosedive by a massive 90 percent both overall and in the all-important demographic coveted by advertisers in the first week of the new year. The Jeff Zucker-led cable news network averaged just 548,000 viewers during the week of Jan. 3—a major drop from the nearly 2.7 million viewers for the same week in 2021, according to Nielsen ratings. The year-ago ratings were jolted by the left-leaning network’s coverage of the Jan. 6 attack on the US Capitol, which resulted in CNN having its most-watched day since Ted Turner launched the news outlet in 1980.

The winner of this year’s Golden Globe Award for Actress in a Drama TV Series wasn’t always a female. Michaela Jae “Mj” Rodriguez, star of the FX show “Pose,” became the “first transgender actress to win a Golden Globe,” according to the website. The awards are presented annually by the Hollywood Foreign Press Association. The winners of the 79th Golden Globe Awards were announced Sunday at the Beverly Hilton Hotel. NBC refused to air this year’s ceremony in protest of the association’s absence of Black voting members. The 31-year-old Rodriguez, who told Playbill that she began hormone-replacement therapy in 2016, described her win as a victory

USA Today was forced to delete a series of tweets after the paper was blasted for trying to 'normalize' pedophilia by saying it is 'misunderstood' and a condition 'determined in the womb.' On Monday, USA Today published an article by Alia E. Dastagir titled 'What the public keeps getting wrong about pedophilia,' where the national correspondent cited researchers who study pedophilia and say it is a misunderstood term that describes an attraction to minors, not an action. The article also claimed that pedophilia is a condition that is developed in the womb. 'Not all people who sexually abuse children are pedophiles,' Dastagir wrote. 'Some pedophiles never abuse children, experts

Former President Trump is taking a dig at politicians like Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis who refuse to say if they got the COVID-19 vaccine booster shot. Calling those who evade the booster question “gutless,” Trump suggested that they are trying to avoid offending anti-vaxxer supporters even though they know the booster shot saves lives. “They don’t want to say it. Because they’re gutless,” Trump said in a new interview with the far-right One America Network. “You got to say it. Whether you had it or not. Say it.” Trump didn’t name DeSantis in the interview. But there is little doubt he was referring to the rising GOP star,

Mayor Eric Adams has demoted his younger brother after Hizzoner initially chose him to serve as a deputy NYPD commissioner, city officials confirmed Wednesday. Bernard Adams, a 56-year-old retired NYPD sergeant, will now serve as executive director of mayoral security, according to police officials—a position multiple notches lower in rank from his previously designated title. He will be paid a $210,000 salary, a roughly $30,000 pay cut from the salary deputy police commissioners typically earn, the sources said.(Snip)The mayor’s younger brother most recently served as assistant director for parking at Virginia Commonwealth University, where he’s been employed since 2011, according to his LinkedIn.

Pieces of paper saying "It's ok to be white" on colleges campuses were widely derided as racist hate crimes, and yet Very Asian, Black Lives Matter, La Raza, and anything else proclaiming racial identity—let alone pride—in being anything other than a White person, is powerful and brave.
