New York State Police bravely rescued a woman stranded in a snowstorm, urgently needing a heart transplant. Their swift actions ensured she received the critical medical attention she needed in time.

Sen. John Fetterman (D-PA) said President Trump should receive a pardon in his New York ‘hush money’ case because it was “politically motivated.” The Democratic senator said Trump and Hunter Biden both should receive pardons on “The View.” “I think it’s undeniable that the case against Hunter Biden was really politically motivated. But I also think it’s true that the trial in New York for Trump, that was political as well, too. Now, in both cases, I think a pardon is appropriate,” Fetterman said. “And I really think collectively, you know, America’s confidence in these kinds of institutions has been damaged by these kinds of cases, and we cannot allow these kinds of institutions to be weaponized against our political opponents, and it’s very clear both trials were politically motivated and weaponized on the other side,” he added.

Co-host Joy Behar brought up the Jan. 6 rioters and suggested the incoming Trump administration would be defending a pardon for them using a similar argument to the one offered by Fetterman. “I’m talking about the New York trial and now the Democrats on our side, there were some that were gleeful calling — now he’s a convicted felon and those things. And now for our party, we were talking about criminal justice, and we are now talking about second chances and now, all of a sudden, now you’re like, well, he’s a convicted felon and all these things,” Fetterman responded. “And now clearly, again, both of those trials, the Hunter Biden one and the trial in New York for Trump, that was clearly those [were] politically motivated and those kinds of charges would have never been brought unless one side could realize that they could weaponize that,” he added.

Judge Juan Merchan dismissed the case after the former president’s legal team argued that his return to the White House clears him of the 34 felony counts. Hunter Biden’s pardon came as somewhat of a shock, as the president had previously said he would not issue a pardon to his son, who was found guilty of three charges relating to a 2018 gun purchase in June. The president explained his decision in a statement earlier this week, saying, “No reasonable person who looks at the facts of Hunter’s cases can reach any other conclusion than Hunter was singled out only because he is my son — and that is wrong.”

In the court’s majority opinion, the justices said, “We recognize that this decision has significant implications for TikTok and its users.” If the platform does not divest, the court said it “will effectively be unavailable in the United States, at least for a time.” “Consequently, TikTok’s millions of users will need to find alternative media of communication,” the opinion continued. President-elect Donald Trump can grant a 90-day extension “based upon progress” toward the divestiture order, the opinion said. During his campaign, Trump said he would “save TikTok” if elected.

FBI agents arrested Boston City Councilor Tania Fernandes Anderson Friday morning on public corruption charges. “The U.S. Attorney’s Office, FBI and IRS said at a Friday morning press conference that Fernandes Anderson was arrested at her home around 6 a.m.,” NBC10 Boston stated. According to an unsealed indictment, Fernandes Anderson is accused of “aiding and abetting wire fraud in connection with the use of federal money through her role on the city council.” “The charges stem from an alleged kickback scheme she orchestrated to obtain several thousand dollars in taxpayer money in exchange for bribes paid,” U.S. Attorney Joshua Levy said at a press conference, according to NBC10 Boston. #BREAKING: #FBI Boston special agents have arrested a Boston City Councilor on federal public corruption charges. Details to follow at a 9:30 a.m. news conference at the federal courthouse in Boston. — FBI Boston (@FBIBoston) December 6, 2024 NBC10 Boston reports: Federal investigators allege that in late 2022, Fernandes Anderson hired a relative to her staff, despite rules prohibiting the hiring of immediate family members. The pair made a deal that Fernandes Anderson would award the staffer a bonus and they would then pay back a portion of that bonus to Fernandes Anderson as a kickback. According to the indictment, Fernandes Anderson lied about being related to the staffer when the hire was made, and later failed to disclose the kickback arrangement, claiming the large bonus awarded to the staffer was to pay them for previous volunteer work. The bonus awarded was $13,000, investigators say, significantly more than the bonus awarded to any other member of the staff. Investigators said the staffer then paid Fernandes Anderson $7,000 in cash, which was exchanged in a City Hall bathroom. “When they met in that bathroom, Ms. Fernandes Anderson put $7,000 in her pocket,” Levy said. “All of that money was funded by the taxpayers of Boston.” WATCH: EXCLUSIVE: 5 Investigates was outside the Dorchester home of Boston City Councilor Tania Fernandes Anderson when she was arrested early Friday by FBI agents. https://t.co/4CpDmjL3cS …#Boston #CityCouncil #FBI #Arrest #Dorchester pic.twitter.com/z0Wkdat9MA — WCVB-TV Boston (@WCVB) December 6, 2024 WATCH: BREAKING UPDATE: FBI arrests Boston City Councilor Tania Fernandes Anderson, a Democrat, on public corruption charges.
