His company, Captain Phip‘s Seafood, was sentenced to three years of probation and a fine of $240,000 for felony visa fraud. Harrington also asked that his probation officer allow him to make his usual trips this year to Florida and the Bahamas

So much for “Minnesota nice.” President Joe Biden received an ugly welcome in the Land of 10,000 Lakes Tuesday when his motorcade passed dozens of protesters who held vulgar signs dissing the commander-in-chief. Some of the demonstrators waved campaign flags for former President Donald Trump. One sign said “FJB” in an apparent abbreviation of “F–k Joe Biden.” “A less coded version just outright said ‘F–k you Biden’ with the U in the F word cleverly drawn to look like a middle finger,” reported White House pool correspondent Todd Gillman of the Dallas Morning News. “A real middle finger attached to a somewhat rough looking middle age man
The Salvation Army said Monday it has withdrawn a discussion guide on racism that was intended for its church members but that an advocacy group claimed was given to donors as a call to “repent” for being White. “If that document is getting in the way of the fulfillment of our mission, The Salvation Army is going to remove it,” Commissioner Kenneth Hodder, the group’s U.S. national commander, told The Washington Times. “Because nothing can be allowed to affect the fulfillment of that critical mission.”
The church group has been flooded by email complaints about repentance requests over its guide “Let’s Talk About Racism,” one critic said.
The chief executive of Moderna, a key COVID-19 vaccine maker, predicted a “material drop” in the shots’ efficacy against the omicron variant, spooking investors in early Tuesday trading amid new fears about the trajectory of the pandemic. CEO Stephane Bancel, speaking to The Financial Times, said there is “no world” in which the vaccines are as effective against the variant newly discovered in South Africa as the delta variant that is dominant now. “I think it’s going to be a material drop. I just don’t know how much because we need to wait for the data. But all the scientists I’ve talked to … are like, ‘This is not
A supermarket in Melbourne has been forced to apologise after taping a message to its register encouraging staff to racially profile African customers. Sunshine West IGA in the city's outer-west has come under fire after a customer shared the notice on social media, which calls for workers to use a 'special button' if an African person walks into the store. 'If an African customer comes to the bottle shop presses the button for assistant immediately!' the message reads. 'Minimum 2 staffs in front while we serve Africans.'(Snip)The man, who chose to remain anonymous, told the ABC the sign was 'just for safety reasons'
Police are investigating a series of fights that broke out at Terminal 2 of the Minneapolis-St. Paul International Airport just before midnight Friday. The fights erupted among a dozen or so male and female passengers after two large groups deplaned from a Frontier Airlines flight, according to Patrick Hogan, spokesman for the Metropolitan Airports Commission, which operates MSP. A video of the incident, which lasted just over a minute, was posted on social media and shared by more than 7,000 people by midday Monday. Blows were exchanged between several people and "some of the individuals threw stanchions and broke chairs," Hogan said.(Snip)No arrests have been made,

Gov. Charlie Baker expects a state-sanctioned COVID-19 vaccination passport program to be implemented in Massachusetts and several other states soon. During an appearance on GBH News' Boston Public Radio, Baker said a scannable quick response code, commonly known as a QR code, would show a person's vaccination status and be made available for others to scan and verify. "It's a universal standard and we've been working with a bunch of other states, there's probably 15 or 20 of them, to try to create a single QR code that can be used for all sorts of things where people may choose to require a vaccine," Baker said
The Bronx, N.Y.—Hundreds of Bronx families signed up for free internet access and $11 laptops on Monday as part of a new federal program. More than 1,200 families at the Melrose Houses will have affordable internet access thanks to the Emergency Broadband Benefit program. The families lined up in the basketball courts on Courtland Avenue to sign up.(Snip)The program was made possible through Congress, which set aside $3.2 billion to the Federal Communications Commission to help low-income households pay for broadband and internet- connected devices. “Over 1,200 families can get free access to the internet. At first, then affordable after that.
Federal Reserve Chair Jerome Powell says that the appearance of a new COVID-19 variant could slow the economy and hiring, while also raising uncertainty about inflation. The recent increase in delta cases and the emergence of the omicron variant 'pose downside risks to employment and economic activity and increased uncertainty for inflation,' Powell said Monday in prepared remarks to be delivered to the Senate Banking Committee on Tuesday. The new variant could also worsen supply chain disruptions, he said. Powell's comments come after other Fed officials in recent weeks have said the central bank should consider winding down its ultra-low interest rate policies more quickly than it currently plans.
On the first day of Christmas, the Bidens gave to thee a gas pump without the highway robbery. This year’s holiday decorations, unveiled Monday, feature the traditional gingerbread White House in the State Dining Room, nestled amid a confectionery street scene of businesses that have helped keep America running through the COVID-19 pandemic. In a prominent spot next to the White House is a miniature gas station with two tiny pumps, no prices visible. Nearby is a grocery store, another reminder of record inflation. The sight prompted comments on social media at a time when Americans are paying 60% more for gas than they did a year ago.
Newly-released texts of CNN host Chris Cuomo reveal how he wrote his brother Andrew's sex pest rebuttals and used sources to investigate accusers, despite denying 'closely advising' his brother. Texts also revealed his friend arranged for Alec Baldwin to post a video in support of his brother Andrew and that he used his media connections to find out about accusers. The text exchanges—released by the New York Attorney General's office Monday—contradict Chris Cuomo's claims that he did not closely advise the disgraced former governor about a dozen sexual harassment allegations leveled against him.
In one message, Cuomo said 'his friend' asked actor Alec Baldwin
President Joe Biden on Monday urged Americans to get vaccinated or get their booster shots amid warnings about the spread of the Omicron variant–but insisted that the infectious new variant was not a cause for 'panic' and said no new restrictions were needed.
'We'll fight this variant with scientific and knowledgeable actions and speed, not chaos and confusion,' Biden said at the White House.
But even amid the pressing nature of the new variant, Biden misstated the name of the variant. 'It's called the Omnicron,' he said, inserting an extra 'n'–an error his coronavirus advisor, Dr. Anthony Fauci, who was standing in the background, also committed.

New York Magazine will soon be releasing a book of essays extolling the many virtues of Rep. Alexandria-Ocasio-Cortez (D-NY), including her “making of the Green New Deal” and “the role that her beauty plays in her public perception.”The book will not be published until February 1, 2022, according to its Amazon description. It will be an “engaging, all-encompassing biography” of the openly socialist congresswoman while aiming to be “in the bestselling tradition of Notorious RBG and Pelosi that explores her explosive rise and impact on the future of American culture and politics.”
House Speaker Nancy Pelosi’s (D-CA) ambitions of keeping the Democrat majority in the House of Representatives past the midterm elections next year are dwindling as droves of vulnerable Democrats have announced they are leaving their current seats to either retire or seek a different office instead of fighting in a brutal reelection.
Republicans only need to net five seats to pick up the House majority after the midterms. So far, more than triple the amount of Democrats (18 total) have decided to officially call it quits on the House and have left their seats open for a fight, giving Republicans a chance to gain another seat since House Republicans
As of Monday, Kyle Rittenhouse is no longer enrolled at Arizona State University’s online program.A spokesperson for the university said that Rittenhouse, 18, is “not currently enrolled in any classes at ASU” and still “has not gone through the ASU admissions process,” according to Campus Reform. Rittenhouse said he was taking online classes at ASU and in recent interviews, he had indicated that he would like to attend classes in-person – ASU had even previously confirmed he was enrolled as a ‘non-degree-seeking’ online student for the session that began in mid-October, even though the teen had not gone through the full admissions process.

The WHO has warned the new Omicron Covid super-mutant poses a 'very high' risk to the global pandemic recovery with 'severe consequences' possible if it causes a new wave of infections.
'Omicron has an unprecedented number of mutations, some of which are concerning for their potential impact on the trajectory of the pandemic,' the WHO said, amid fears the new variant is much more infectious than previous strains including Delta. 'The overall global risk related to the new variant ...is assessed as very high.'(Snip)'Omicron demonstrates just why the world needs a new accord on pandemics: our current system disincentivizes countries from alerting others to threats that will inevitably
The “Nuclear Option” for Kamala?
33 replies
I suggested last week that negative stories about Kamala Harris that ran on CNN and over at Politico were surely planted by the Biden political staff at the White House, but I’m not sure whether the same can be said about today’s much more savage story in The Telegraph: “With Kamala Harris looking unelectable, the Democrats are considering the nuclear option.”
Unlike the Daily Mail, which sensationalizes news from the U.S. in tabloid style—though it must be said that it is often reporting stories the U.S. mainstream media avoids—The Telegraph is a staid broadsheet. Thus, some of the content of this story is all the more astounding for the panic

Rep. Ronny Jackson (R-Texas), who previously served as White House physician under Barack Obama and Donald Trump, has a disturbing theory about the Omicron variant.
On Saturday, Jackson suggested that Democrats will use the Omicron variant to push for universal mail-in voting for the 2022 midterm elections and save their party from an electoral bloodbath next year.
“Here comes the MEV – the Midterm Election Variant!” Jackson tweeted. “They NEED a reason to push unsolicited nationwide mail-in ballots. Democrats will do anything to CHEAT during an election – but we’re not going to let them!”
Reaction to the Omicron variant has been mixed. Some countries, including the United States,
We’ve heard of people with stinky feet taking off their shoes. We have heard of people listening to music or watching a movie without headphones. We’ve heard of people with “emotional support falcons.” But I promise you, this is a new one for us all.According to Newsweek, a woman on a recent flight between Syracuse, NY, and Atlanta, GA decided to give all of her fellow passengers a sight to see. The woman attempted to swaddle and breastfeed her cat. Yes, you read that right. Even worse is that after she was requested by flight personnel to put the cat and her breast away, she refused.From Newsweek:

There are significant policy-related differences between men and women. And it is likely in our best interest as police officers to capitalize on the differences and use them to our advantage.
While on the other side, if the differences cause challenges, change our method of training to accommodate the differences.
A video that we’ve received today shows why male and female cops should work together!
Officials say Forsberg found 21-year-old Ari Young outside the home, and he became combative with her.
Cellphone video shot from within a home on Cabazon Court begins as the man identified as Young is slugging Forsberg in the head.

Why bother with the tiny fine, which he can write off as a business expense? A man of his caliber deserves a top slot in the United States Department of Labor or maybe Immigration and Naturalization Services, certainly not toiling away as a fishmonger. Then again, "Philip J. 'Jamie' Harrington III" does not sound African, so unless he's queer he'll need to remain outside of the Politburo.
