-Lurid Crime Tales-
FBI Investigating Whether Cuomo Aides Gave False Data On Nursing Homes
[Hot Air] Agents from the Federal Bureau of Investigation have contacted lawyers for Mr. Cuomo’s aides, interviewed senior officials from the state Health Department and subpoenaed Mr. Cuomo’s office for documents related to the disclosure of data last year, the people said.

The interviews have included questions about information New York State submitted last year to the Justice Department, which had asked the state for data on Covid-19 cases and deaths in nursing homes, according to the people. False statements in such a submission could constitute a crime.

In some cases, agents traveled to the homes of state health officials to interview them about the data. In others, they spoke to officials by phone, according to the people, who requested anonymity to discuss the active investigation.

I feel much of this is for Media and accountability Deflection.

Cuomo is little more than a sacrificial lamb being used to appease the masses wanting C-19 accountability. It steers attention away from several other Liberal Dictatorial State Leaders with similar Edicts and policies.

All so they could further a Political Coup's Agenda.

As an added bonus it opens up a position for a new school Socialist-Democrat (??? AOC ???) to fill the seat.

Boy, 2, dies after eating fentanyl mom bought with stimulus check
[NYPOST] A 2-year-old Kentucky boy died after consuming fentanyl his mother bought using her stimulus check, police said.

Lauren Ashley Baker, 33, admitted to cops in Ludlow Thursday that she got the highly addictive synthetic opioid last weekend in Cincinnati while using funds from her stimulus check, WXIX reported.

After getting the highly addictive drug — up to 100 times more potent than morphine — Baker said she brought it back to Ludlow, where she shared it with two other people, a police report shows.

She then said she "took a shot" of fentanyl sometime Thursday before falling asleep. Her 2-year-old son then ate some of the drug, which was in her purse, as she dozed away, police said.

Baker later awoke to find her purse emptied out and her son not breathing. The boy’s father, who was not identified, called cops when he got home, according to the police report.

Cops found the boy in respiratory arrest when they arrived at the residence.

He was rushed to Cincinnati Children’s Hospital, where he was pronounced dead.
He's dead, Jim!
Sherlocks said.

A substance believed to be fentanyl was discovered scattered across a bed inside the residence, as well as empty packaging for Narcan, a drug designed to block the effects of opioids, according to the police report.

Baker, who is facing charges of murder, importing fentanyl and trafficking of a controlled substance, remains held without bond at the Kenton County Detention Center, records show.

Man allegedly beat girlfriend's 7-year-old son to death with hammer
[NYPOST] A man arrested for allegedly beating his girlfriend’s 7-year-old son to death with a hammer in West Virginia told authorities he "just lost it," according to police.Rashad Akeem Thompson, 34, allegedly carried out the deadly assault around 2:45 a.m. Thursday inside an apartment complex in the city of Beckley, authorities said.

When cops arrived, they found a hammer covered in what appeared to be blood on the living room floor, WSAZ reported.

They discovered the young boy’s body lying on the couch with extreme trauma to the left side of his head.

"I just lost it," Thompson allegedly told police, according to the local report.

The criminal complaint states detectives believe he was bludgeoned with the hammer.

The boy’s 24-year-old mother, identified by the outlet as Felicia Brown, was found at a neighbor’s house bleeding heavily from apparent stab wounds to her face, cops said.

She was hospitalized at death's door.

A broken knife was also recovered inside the home, the outlet reported.

Thompson was arrested at the scene and charged with first-degree murder, attempted first-degree murder, child abuse resulting in death, malicious wounding and two counts of domestic battery, authorities said.

-Short Attention Span Theater-
Allen & Co. plans Sun Valley return
Normalcy returns.
[ID MTN EXP] Allen & Co. is coming back to Sun Valley this summer, one year after canceling its annual summit due to the COVID-19 pandemic, according to multiple sources familiar with the event.

The planned return marks the 38th running of the annual conference, an anniversary delayed a year after the boutique New York investment bank canceled the annual conclave in mid-April, 2020.

It also marks another step towards normalcy in the Wood River Valley after a 2020 stripped of its usual hallmarks by the coronavirus and subsequent lockdown. Earlier this week, another summer stalwart, the Sun Valley Music Festival, announced that it would bring back live music in late July. The Express could not confirm the dates of this year's Allen & Co. conference, though it typically takes place the first week of July.

The local economic impact of Allen & Co. is tough to pin down. Most of the accounting is locked in the private records of two very private businesses: the eponymous investment bank, and Sun Valley Co. For scores of locals, though, from restauranteurs to rafting guides, the conference has provided a reliable boost to mid-summer business.

As vaccination efforts ramp up, it remains to be seen how remnant COVID-19 protocols will alter the event, which typically brings some world's foremost figures in business, media, technology and politics to the north valley. Guests in 2019 included former New York City Mayor and one-time presidential candidate Michael Bloomberg, Apple CEO Tim Cook, NFL Commissioner Roger Goodell and Nike co-founder Phil Knight, to name a few. Amazon's Jeff Bezos, Berkshire Hathaway's Warren Buffet, Microsoft Founder Bill Gates and Facebook's Mark Zuckerberg—four of the five richest people on the planet, according to Forbes Magazine—routinely attend.

Though 2020's conference was canceled, the traditionally secretive Allen & Co. was more visible than usual in the valley last year. Within the first month of the pandemic, the company donated $1 million to the St. Luke’s Wood River Foundation’s COVID-19 Response Fund and $200,000 to The Hunger Coalition, according to those nonprofits. Allen & Co. and conference founder Herbert Allen Jr. and the company own more than a dozen properties in Ketchum and Sun Valley, according to Blaine County records.

-Land of the Free
Feds Confiscate Guns in Flathead Valley With 30 Vehicles, Three Tanks, and Helicopter
(MontanaDailyGazette) Heretofore ignored by the legacy press and mainstream media, in February, federal authorities invaded a neighborhood in the Flathead Valley with militarized police and terrorized its occupants with what appears to be Waco-level tyrannical overreach

In 1992, a federal siege occurred in Boundary County, Idaho, at a location known as Ruby Ridge. The eleven-day siege lasted from August 21-31 and resulted in the deaths of one U.S. Marshall, and the wife and son of Randy Weaver, the target of the siege. This event captured the attention of the nation. To secure the land around this seven-person home composed of three adults and four children, the federal government saw fit to send in hundreds of federal agents, as well as associated vehicles and air support.

a exerpt from "Liberty's Torch"re: this incident: The media have given the Montana incident no coverage whatsoever. I’m still looking for further substantiation of the Montana Daily Gazette report, but simply for the sake of speculation, let’s assume for the moment that it’s accurate. The general public doesn’t know about it. What would the majority of Americans have to say about it, were they to be informed of it, the scale and destructiveness of it, and the reasons for it?

There’s been a lot of casual talk – mostly from the Left and the supporters of the Usurper Regime – about “domestic terrorism.” To me, the Montana incident is a perfect example: the use of overwhelming federal forces to terrorize a private citizen for no good reason. Surely if there were a good reason, the feds wouldn’t have kept the raid completely secret. Indeed, they would have trumpeted its success as a stroke in the cause of justice, or national security, or whatnot. Neither would they have persuaded the national media to ignore it.

Governments throughout these United States have been acting against citizens’ rights foe some time now. Especially threatened is our right to freedom of expression. In case you’re unpersuaded that the threat is real, consider this recent report from New York City. Can you imagine the intimidating power of what De Blasio has proclaimed – how chilling the effect upon New Yorkers’ freedom of speech?

Firearms rights? You can forget them. Indeed, the “John Doe” of the Montana incident may have been targeted specifically for that reason. He was a Federal Firearms Licensee, qualified to make, repair, and sell firearms of all kinds. No allegation that he was in violation of any of the terms of his license has been made.

Thomas Jefferson wrote in the Declaration of Independence of “the consent of the governed.” Is it plausible that a government that wields such immense degrees of force against a peaceable private citizen genuinely has that consent – or believes that it has it?

Barr was up to his eyeballs in protecting and supporting Horiuchi the shoot-without-provocation sniper as well as another FBI agent who likely perjured himself.

#8  All the reports and investigations subsequent to RR indicate that the same crew of FBI officials continued their malfeasance from 1992 through to 1995 at least.

Is their reason to believe that our FBI today is better led, more restrained and more competent than it was during the Ruby-Waco era?

Or are we headed for disaster?

If the latter, how do we avoid another Lex. & Concord? What can or should be done?

Africa Subsaharan
Samia Suluhu Hassan becomes Tanzania's first woman president
[APNEWS] Samia Suluhu Hassan made history Friday when she was sworn in as Tanzania’s first female president after the death of her controversial predecessor, John Magufuli, who denied that COVID-19 is a problem in the East African country.

Wearing a hijab and holding up a Koran with her right hand, the 61-year-old Hassan took the oath of office at State House, the government offices in Dar es Salaam, the country’s largest city.

The inauguration was witnessed by Cabinet members, former presidents Ali Hassan Mwinyi and Jakaya Kikwete. The former heads of state were among the few people in the room wearing face masks to protect against COVID-19.

Hassan succeeds Magufuli, who had not been seen in public for more than two weeks before his passing was announced on state TV late Wednesday. Magufuli had denied that COVID-19 was a problem in Tanzania, saying that national prayer had eradicated the disease from the country. But Magufuli acknowledged weeks before his death that the virus was a danger.

A major test of Hassan’s new presidency will be how she deals with the pandemic. Under Magufuli, Tanzania, one of Africa’s most populous countries with 60 million people, made no efforts to obtain vaccines or promote the use of masks and social distancing to combat the virus. This policy of ignoring the disease endangers neighboring countries, African health officials warn.

Although Hassan announced that Magufuli died of heart failure, exiled opposition leader Tundu Lissu says the president died of COVID-19, citing informed medical sources in Dar es Salaam.

#1  Actually, Wanken and Sillyman thought they were being tough by insulting China, publicly and during the opening remarks . That's the time when real diplomats -- or even shrewd non-diplomats with experience of negotiations, like Trymp -- go out if their way to make pleasantries and build rapport. The bashing us then conducted privately, out of sight, microphones off.

Our Jr.Varsity team wanted to virtue signal to their domestic Woke audience, and also dispel the belief that Biden and his idiot crackhead son are compromised by the ChiComs.

Great White North
IT Ain't Just the US
[DailyWire via Lucianne] On Tuesday, the father of a biological girl who believes she is a boy turned himself into a Canadian court and was subsequently taken to jail after the Attorney General of British Columbia issued an arrest warrant for contempt after the father had insisted on referring to his daughter as his "daughter" and used the pronouns "she" and "her."

Robert Hoogland, from Surrey, British Columbia, has a 14-year-old daughter. In February 2019, the Supreme Court of British Columbia, Canada ordered that the girl receive testosterone injections without obtaining parental consent. “The court also declared that if either of her parents referred to her using female pronouns or addressed her by her birth name, they would be considered guilty of family violence,” The Federalist noted.

Speak for yourself, creep. The normal people made themselves heard last November 3 -- at least 74 million of them of voting age. Their vote was nullified and their voice is suppressed by these smelly little fascists

#2  When I was growing up near Cincinnati in the 60's in Catholic school, we had a priest...Father Blome. You'd think he would have pronounced it like "blom" or "Blo-May" or anything else...nope Father "Blow me". Eventually ran off with the head nun...go figure. Scarred me for life as Mrs. Warthog says

What did he do Politically to upset the Socialist Apple cart? (besides his <17 sex issues which get people hung in jail for knowing name)

Because a quick check shows some very

Nothing. We're way beyond the political phase of the Terror. This is all about grabbing power, jobs and money now. Simple greed. Rats devouring each other.

House Sergeant at Arms says outer Capitol fencing to come down
[Just The News] The outer security fencing around the United States Capitol will come down next week after federal law enforcement failed to find a credible reason for its remaining up, a House of Representatives memo revealed this week.

House of Representatives Acting Sergeant-at-Arms Timothy Blodgett said in a memo to all members of the House that Capitol Hill officials "will begin making alterations to the temporary fencing around the Capitol complex" next week following the conclusion by Capitol police that "there does not exist a known, credible threat against Congress or the Capitol Complex that warrants the temporary security fencing."

The inner fencing surrounding the Capitol "will remain around Capitol Square" even as the outer barrier comes down, Blodgett wrote.

#3  Should have built "Ha Ha Walls" long ago around Capital and White House and gotten rid of those unsightly fences. Add spikes plants to the bottom to detour all but the most determined. Then you could add fences in case of riots to make it particularly hard to get in.

Even after Biden's gone they'll need security from time to time and this and that riots against Trump nonsense has got to go. Freaking amateurs running perimeter security at the White House.

Scientists Say They Found Cause of Rare Blood Clotting Linked to AstraZeneca Vaccine
[Morningstar] BERLIN -- Scientists in Europe said they had identified a mechanism that could lead the AstraZeneca PLC vaccine to cause potentially deadly blood clots in rare instances as well as a possible treatment for it.

Two teams of medical researchers in Norway and Germany have independently found that the vaccine could trigger an autoimmune reaction causing blood to clot in the brain, which would offer an explanation for isolated incidents across Europe in recent weeks.

Several European countries briefly halted their rollouts of the vaccine this week after more than 30 recipients were diagnosed with the condition known as cerebral venous sinus thrombosis, or CVST. Most of the people affected were women under the age of 55.

#1  Sometimes Life is unfair. After an emergency Caesarean (mine, by the way) my mother was found to be allergic to the horse serum in the Tetanus shots. Surviving massive blood loss and anaphylactic shock together... well, it's nice to have some luck.

#2  Blood clotting is known to be an issue in severe cases of the China virus disease itself, sometimes necessitating amputation.

Perhaps this research will lead to a specific treatment of this complication.

Myanmar Military Seizes George Soros Organization's Bank Accounts, Announces Arrest Warrants After Coup
[nationalfile] The military government in Myanmar, in place after a coup provoked by widespread accusations of voter fraud plagued the country’s recent election, has now seized the bank accounts of George Soros’ Open Society Foundations.
*Snicker*
After taking control of the country in a military coup provoked by allegations of voter fraud earlier this year, the Myanmar military government has seized several bank accounts belonging or affiliated with George Soros’ Open Society Foundations, and has announced arrest warrants for 11 members of the organization in the country "on suspicion of giving financial support to the civil disobedience movement against the military junta."
No doubt the Soros foundation people are guilty of something egregious, whether or not they did that particular thing.
The government will also take legal action against the Open Society Foundations, which they allege violated "restrictions on the activities of such organizations" and did not receive approval from Myanmar’s authorities for the deposit of $5 million into their Myanmar bank accounts. It is also alleged to have illegally withdrawn $1.4 million from its bank accounts.

A website that tracks Myanmar political developments from Thailand wrote, "Military-aligned groups including the Union Solidarity and Development Party have accused Soros of manipulating Myanmar’s politics by supporting civil society organizations in the country."

National File reported extensively on the ties between Soros, failed presidential candidate Hillary Clinton, and recently ousted State Counselor Aung San Suu Kyi:

Clinton advised Aung San Suu Kyi to contest a parliamentary seat in the 2012 Burmese elections, which Aung San Suu Kyi ultimately did, kickstarting the latter’s formal political career in Burma, also known as Myanmar.
Did we know that? I don’t recall knowing that.
Aung San Suu Kyi also received strong support from then-President Barack Obama, who routinely advocated for her release from house arrest. Aung San Suu Kyi was arrested repeatedly during the 1990s and 2000s for "subversive acts", following her involvement in riots against the Myanmar government.

Obama awarded her the U.S. Congressional Gold Medal in 2012, which she described as "one of the most moving days of my life". Ultimately, the Obama administration engineered Aung San Suu Kyi’s rise to power in 2015, by placing sanctions on Myanmar and insisting on only removing them if Aung San Suu Kyi was given a political role in the country.

Another important ally of Aung San Suu Kyi was progressive billionaire George Soros and his global NGO network, which strongly supported her activities.

Myanmar also recently banned Facebook and Twitter in the country after they alleged the platforms used their algorithms to promote anti-military protests following the military takeover.
Following the lead of India? Interesting.
