GOVERNOR CUOMO DIRECTS INCREASED SECURITY AT HOUSES OF WORSHIP

“New York grieves for the family of the victim and those wounded in the horrific shooting at Chabad of Poway in California.
“Six months to the day after the deadliest anti-Semitic attack in our nation’s history, and on the final day of Passover, we are confronted with another devastating attack in a synagogue, a holy place of worship. New York stands shoulder to shoulder with the Jewish community and people of all faiths.
“As a precaution, I have directed State Police to increase their security presence at synagogues and houses of worship across the state.
“We must come together during this troubling time to root out hate in all its forms and show the nation we will never be divided by these despicable acts of violence.”

‘What a mess’: Laura Loomer again bashes Trump admin over ’embarrassing’ nomination



Far-right conspiracy theorist Laura Loomer is once again lashing out at the Trump administration – this time over the replacement for a nominee she herself helped tank.

Hours after President Donald Trump withdrew the nomination of Dr. Janette Nesheiwat for U.S. surgeon general – following complaints from Loomer – he announced a new pick: wellness influencer and metabolic health advocate Dr. Casey Means.

But Loomer still isn’t satisfied.

“Casey Means, the new Trump nominee for US Surgeon General doesn’t even have an active medical license in Oregon when she established her medical practice,” Loomer posted in a series of social media posts bashing Means – and her family.

“How is the top doctor in the US supposed to give medical guidance and advice to the nation when she doesn’t even have an active medical license in the state where she allegedly practiced medicine?” Loomer wrote.

“This is so embarrassing for the Trump administration,” the MAGA influencer added. She went on to tell her social media followers that Means “didn’t even support Donald Trump” and questioned the Trump administration: “Who is doing the vetting?????”

In a post just minutes earlier, Loomer questioned the title of the position itself. “The term Surgeon General is interesting given the fact that there is no requirement to be a Surgeon to be Surgeon General,” Loomer posted.

“Turns out you can be a social media influencer and become Surgeon General,” she said. In yet another lengthier post, Loomer went after Means’ father, who she claimed “wrote a pro-trans children’s book.”

“I’m told that Casey is VERY CLOSE with her father and shares his views,” she wrote. “So basically, we are now going to have a Democrat US Surgeon General who doesn’t even have an active medical license and whose family is writing books about how to make children transgender.”

“What a mess,” Loomer concluded.
