“Morning Joe” host Joe Scarborough said Monday amid rising COVID-19 cases and the threat of the Delta variant that it’s time for teachers, nurses and police officers to get vaccinated or “look for another job.” And Scarborough told his co-host Mika Brzezinski he thinks it falls to President Joe Biden to begin this mandate with public school teachers. Scarborough says with the availability of the vaccine, Biden now needs to say, “if you are a public school teacher, or you teach at a public university, as a condition of your job, you have to get vaccinated.” “‘We are not closing schools this fall, children will not be staying at home this fall looking at Zoom classes.

Some epic drama unfolded in the Kensset on Monday evening, after MK Itamar Ben-Gvir refused to address MK Ahmad Tibi as “Adoni Yoshev Rosh”, and was dragged out by security. Tibi was sitting in for Knesset Speaker Mickey Levy, when Ben-Gvir took to the podium. Tibi was offended that Ben-Gvir broke with protocol and did not start off by saying “Adoni (my master) Yoshev Rosh”. The following is part of the exchange, as translated by YWN: BG: Minister. members of Knesset… TIBI: I’m sorry, but it’s accepted to say “Adoni Yoshev Rosh”. BG: You are not my master. You are not master. Show me where this protocol. TIBI: This is the law. BG: Show me the rule. Show me the rules (that say I need to address you that way). TIBI: You are not addressing me properly. BG: Who are you at all?

RCCS held their annual Flatbush fundraiser this week, and awards were given to five members of the Flatbush community. One of those honored was Richie Taylor, who is an NYPD Deputy Inspector, and Commanding Officer of Community Affairs. Taylor works directly for NYPD Chief Jeffrey Maddrey, who made it his business to attend the RCCS event, where he publicly praised D.I. Taylor. “Richie works with me in Community Affairs,” Maddrey said. “I send Richie all over this city, and no matter what community I send him in, he always makes an impact.” “People always call me and say Inspector Taylor, Inspector Taylor…. they love him.” Taylor was also greeted by Eric Adams who is poised to be the next Mayor of NYC. Adams congratulated Taylor on being honored with the RCCS Medal of Valor.

Eric Adams attended the RCCS fundraiser in Flatbush tonight. Adams was clear in his message to the Flatbush community for “stepping up bigtime” for him, and ensuring his victory in the Democratic Mayoral Primary a few weeks ago. Adams mentioned how longtime friends of his “walked out of the room” when he ran for Mayor. “Not you”, said Adams. “You walked in and said Eric you are not a new friend, you are an old friend, and friends don’t forget friends”.

New York City will require workers in city-run hospitals and health clinics to either get vaccinated or get tested weekly as officials battle a rise in COVID-19 cases, Mayor Bill de Blasio said Wednesday. De Blasio’s order will not apply to teachers, police officers and other city employees, but it dovetails into the city’s intense focus on vaccinations amid an increase in delta variant infections. “We need our health care workers to be vaccinated and it’s getting dangerous with the delta variant,” de Blasio said on CNN. The number of vaccine doses being given out daily in the city has dropped to less than 18,000, down from a peak of more than 100,000 in early April. About 65% of all adults are fully vaccinated, but the inoculation rate is around 25% among Black adults under age 45.

Dr. Anthony Fauci, the nation’s top infectious disease expert, angrily confronted Kentucky GOP Sen. Rand Paul on Tuesday in testimony on Capitol Hill, rejecting Paul’s insinuation that the U.S. helped fund research at a Chinese lab that could have sparked the COVID-19 outbreak. Paul suggested that Fauci had lied before Congress when in May he denied that the National Institutes of Health funded so-called “gain of function” research — the practice of enhancing a virus in a lab to study its potential impact in the real world — at a Wuhan virology lab. U.S. intelligence agencies are currently exploring theories that an accidental leak from that lab could have led to the global pandemic. “I have not lied before Congress. I have never lied. Certainly not before Congress.
