Justice Orders Trump Organization to Comply With New York AG Subpoena

/1 Comment/in , /by

A New York judge ordered the Trump Organization to comply with a subpoena from state Attorney General Letitia James by the end of April.

Lawyers for the Trump Organization agreed to a schedule to comply with the subpoena issued against the company more than two years ago seeking material from employees’ devices and to produce reports about which devices had been searched.

“I hope we are winding down this whole investigation,” state Supreme Court Justice Arthur Engoron said during a hearing Monday, per the Wall Street Journal. “One thing all of us can agree on is we want this to end at some point.”

The company plans to produce most of the relevant documents by April 15 but has until April 29 to turn over everything requested. Trump Organization lawyers contend that the only device left to be searched in the investigation was a phone that belonged to Alan Garten, a lawyer for the company, according to CNN.

Engoron ordered both the Trump organization and forensics company HaystackID, which was hired to monitor the Trump Organization’s compliance with the subpoena, to produce weekly reports on the company’s progress.

Company Sues Man on Life Support With COVID in Order to Recoup Loan

/0 Comments/in , /by

A Bronx landlord who’s clinging to life thanks to COVID-19 was slapped with two lawsuits over a $23,000 high-interest loan he was forced to take out during the pandemic-related rent moratorium, according to a new lawsuit.

The lending company Premier Capital Funding LLC is hunting down Jeffrey Schneider — who is on life support — to repay $58,000 for the loan he took out in May through his company Remie Realty Corp., according to court papers filed by Schneider’s wife.

Schneider, the landlord of a rent-controlled building in the Bronx, sought the $23,000 life line when his struggling tenants stopped paying rent, the court filing says.

He managed to pay back $25,000 of the roughly $35,000 total he owed on the high-interest loan before coronavirus all but killed him.

“This debt that started out with the merchant [Remie] receiving $23,000 has now exploded into an $85,000 debt,” Schneider family lawyer Ashlee Colonna Cohen told The Post. “He’s already paid $25,000 of it and they are still asking for more.” (Read more from “Company Sues Man on Life Support With COVID in Order to Recoup Loan” HERE)

Florida Resident Tells ‘Woke’ New Yorkers to Head Back North in Scathing Letter (VIDEO)

/0 Comments/in , /by

An angry Floridian has a message for their snowbird neighbors: If you’re woke, go back to New York.

A number of cars with New York license plates parked on Palm Beach streets received notices on their windows over the weekend urging them to leave if they lean left politically, police said.

“If you are one of those ‘woke’ people — leave Florida. You will be happier elsewhere, as will we,” reads the missive, typed in all capital letters.

The threatening letters were found on cars parked along Sunrise Avenue, Bradley Place and Seaview Avenue in the ritzy seaside enclave about an hour north of Fort Lauderdale that’s long been a beloved locale for New Yorkers who head south for the winter.

Concerned citizens reported the letters to the Palm Beach Police Department on Sunday but after a brief investigation, cops determined a crime hadn’t been committed.

Idiot Judge Orders Vaccination of 11 Year Old Over Her Scientist-Father’s Objections

/0 Comments/in , /by

An upstate New York judge has sided with a mother in ordering her 11-year-old daughter to get vaccinated against COVID-19 — despite the father’s concerns.

Jeannie Figer in late November brought her estranged husband, Donald Figer, back to court in their 2012 divorce case to ask a judge to allow her to vaccinate her daughter over Donald’s objections.

Donald — a scientist and college professor “at one of the area’s premier institutions” — asked his ex not to rush to vaccinate their young daughter, saying there hadn’t been any studies conducted on the long-term side effects, according to court papers.

But Monroe County Supreme Court Justice Richard Dollinger disagreed, saying time is of the essence when it comes to getting the girl protected. . .

Dollinger ordered Jeannie to schedule an appointment for her daughter to get the shot immediately. (Read more from “Idiot Judge Orders Vaccination of 11 Year Old Over Her Scientist-Father’s Objections” HERE)

Don Lemon Accuser Says CNN Anchor Tried to Settle Sexual Assault Case Three Times

/0 Comments/in , /by

Dustin Hice, a New York bartender who accused CNN’s Don Lemon of sexual assault over a 2018 incident, said the network anchor tried to settle the case three times.

“Money is not what I’m after here,” Hice said on “The Megyn Kelly Show” in an interview published Monday. “I just want to not live the rest of my life in regret, and to have a clear conscience, and to have closure from this situation.”

Hice said Lemon made “three separate attempts” with nearly “half a million dollars” to keep him quiet over allegations that the prime time anchor groped his own genitals and proceeded to shove the foul fingers in Hice’s face at a Long Island bar. Hice filed a lawsuit two years ago with a trial expected to begin early next year.

“[Lemon] put his hand down the front of his own shorts, and vigorously rubbed his genitalia, removed his hand and shoved his index and middle fingers into Plaintiff’s mustache and under Plaintiff’s nose,” the 2019 lawsuit reads, according to Fox News. “Lemon intensely pushed his fingers against Plaintiff’s face under Plaintiff’s nose, forcing Plaintiff’s head thrust backward as Defendant repeatedly asked Plaintiff ‘Do you like p***y or d**k?’ while saying this, Mr. Lemon continued to shove his fingers into Plaintiff’s face with aggression and hostility.”

In Monday’s interview with former Fox News host Megyn Kelly, Hice said the experience, which happened within his first few weeks at the Long Island establishment, provoked a summer of relentless taunting that eventually led him to leave. Customers would enter to order lemon drops with two fingers raised, referring to a joke Hice had made to Lemon before the CNN host approached Hice later in the evening.

Judge Rules New York Must Allow Religious Exemptions to COVID Vaccine Mandate

/0 Comments/in , /by

A federal judge ruled on Tuesday that New York state cannot impose a COVID-19 vaccine mandate on healthcare workers without allowing their employers to consider religious exemption requests.

U.S. District Judge David Hurd in Albany, New York, ruled that the state’s workplace vaccination requirement conflicted with healthcare workers’ federally protected right to seek religious accommodations from their employers.

The ruling provides a test case as vaccine mandate opponents gear up to fight plans by President Joe Biden’s administration to extend COVID-19 inoculation requirements to tens of millions of unvaccinated Americans.

Vaccines have become highly politicized in the United States, where only 66% of Americans are vaccinated, well short of the initial goals of the Biden administration.

Seventeen healthcare workers opposed to the mandate sued, saying the requirement violated their rights under the U.S. Constitution and a federal civil rights law requiring employers to reasonably accommodate employees’ religious beliefs.

Report: Man Dies From COVID-19 After Hospital Rejects Court Order for Ivermectin

/1 Comment/in , /by

A 75-year-old New York man died last weekend after a hospital refused to give him the drug Ivermectin in a last-ditch effort to save his life, despite an order from a judge, an exclusive report from News10NBC’s Jennifer Lewke revealed.

Although Jeremy L. Carter was vaccinated against COVID-19, he still caught the virus at the end of August, Lewke detailed. He became sick enough to be hospitalized at Rochester General Hospital and continued to deteriorate to the point where he was placed on a ventilator.

After consulting with Carter’s primary care doctor, Carter and his daughter Jill Alvarado wanted to try Ivermectin. Although the drug is not approved by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) to treat COVID-19, and the FDA has explicitly warned against using it, some doctors have prescribed Ivermectin for COVID-19 patients.

However, the hospital refused to administer the drug to Carter, even though the family said they would gladly sign away any right to file a malpractice lawsuit.

This forced Alvarado to sue Rochester Regional Health, where Rochester General Hospital falls — and she was successful. Finally, a judge sided with the family and ordered the hospital to administer the care. (Read more from “Report: Man Dies From COVID-19 After Hospital Rejects Court Order for Ivermectin” HERE)

Vax Attack: Video Shows Tourists Fight With NYC Restaurant Hostess Over Vaccination Proof

/0 Comments/in , /by

A disturbing cellphone video shows the wild incident in which three tourists from Texas attacked a Manhattan restaurant hostess who had asked for proof they’d been vaccinated against COVID-19, according to a report.

One assailant was recorded swinging a wild, overhand blow at the hostess amid the chaos outside Carmine’s on the Upper West Side, according to a 49-second clip obtained by NBC New York and posted on Twitter.

“F–k! Oh my God! What the f–k!” the hostess screamed.

The mobile seating station outside the Italian eatery was also pushed over during the turmoil but was prevented from hitting the ground by two male bystanders.

One of the men then waded into the fracas, grabbed a woman around her torso from behind, lifted her off her feet and carried her away.

CUOMO’S BODY COUNT: New York Health Officials Finally Reveal State’s True COVID Death Toll

/0 Comments/in , /by

The tally of New Yorkers killed by the coronavirus pandemic stands at more than 55,000 people, the state Health Department confirmed late Tuesday — far more than the 43,000 long reported by now-departed Gov. Andrew Cuomo.

DOH officials released the revised tallies just hours after Gov. Kathy Hochul was sworn into office, finally bringing the state’s death count into line with figures long published by the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention and Johns Hopkins University.

“It’s a good first step by Hochul,” said Bill Hammond, a health care policy expert at the conservative-leaning think tank The Empire Center, which aggressively pressed state officials over their handling of nursing home safety measures during the pandemic.

“The higher COVID death totally is significantly important,” he added. “She’s acknowledging how bad things got. She’s not sugarcoating the problem. Cuomo was trying to keep the numbers as low as he could.”

For months, the Cuomo administration had only released partial tallies of those killed by the coronavirus pandemic — counting just those who died in hospitals, nursing homes and adult care facilities — in its daily public summaries of COVID-19 data.

Former Councilman and Retired Priest Accused of Sexually Assaulting Minor

/0 Comments/in , /by

Retired priest and former New York City Councilman Louis Gigante was slapped with a lawsuit that accused him of sexually assaulting a 9-year-old boy in the 1970s in a Bible study course.

Gigante, whose brother was mob boss Vincent “The Chin,” allegedly forced the kid to perform oral sex at St. Athanasius Church in the Bronx, documents filed in Bronx County court showed.

“The Archdiocese knew or should have known that Father Gigante was sexually abusing children and/or had the propensity to do so,” the complaint reads, according to The Bronx Times.

“The defendants Roman Catholic Archdiocese of New York, and St. Athanasius Roman Catholic Church knew or should have known of the abuse that Mr. Doe and other young children were suffering at the hands of their clergy.” (Read more from “Former Councilman and Retired Priest Accused of Sexually Assaulting Minor” HERE)
