[The Blaze] A homeless woman living in a Vermont shelter has been arrested and charged with first-degree murder after she allegedly slaughtered the shelter's coordinator with an axe.
On Monday, 38-year-old Zaaina Asra Zakirrah Mahvish-Jammeh allegedly lured 36-year-old Leah Rosin-Pritchard to the living room of a homeless shelter in Battleboro, Vermont, along the eastern border of the state, just across the Connecticut River from New Hampshire.
Rosin-Pritchard, who moved to Vermont from Rhode Island because of her desire to help others, initially hesitated to meet with Mahvish-Jammeh there, telling a colleague that Mahvish-Jammeh's request for a meeting was "kind of strange," according to a report from Battleboro police. However, she went to the living room anyway. Almost immediately, Mahvish-Jammeh reportedly drew an axe she had recently purchased from a hardware store and began attacking Rosin-Pritchard with it.
Screams brought other staff and residents to the room, where they begged the suspect to stop. One resident of the shelter who witnessed the brutal slaying claimed it has traumatized him.
[ZERO] In a decision which the liberal media called an "unprecedented" decision, late on Friday a federal judge in Texas issued an order that will shut down the prescription and distribution of mifepristone in seven days, one of two drugs used for medication abortions that has been on the market in the U.S. for more than two decades. However, it wasn't immediately clear if it was the decision that was unprecedented, or that a member of the judicial branch did something that wasn't immediately prompted by generous funding from George Soros.
The preliminary injunction - which suspends the US government’s decades-old approval of the key drug used in medication abortion - was issued by US District Judge Matthew Kacsmaryk, an appointee of President Donald Trump, could soon end the sale and distribution of mifepristone, used as part of a two-pill regimen to terminate a pregnancy within the first 10 weeks, while a lawsuit seeking a more permanent ban on the drug proceeds.

The debate will be about politics. The actual underlying evidence of harm to the mothers that take these pills doesn’t seem to make it into the news.

I may be old, but I'm not too senile to remember when individual federal judges stopped all sorts of nationwide programs during the Trump administration. Sauce for the goose...

[AmThinker] Dr. Robert Malone calls this "big news."
This is big news!
"Switzerland stops the Covid vaccinations: All vaccination recommendations have been withdrawn""https://t.co/1WTuthz7sN
— Robert W Malone, MD (@RWMaloneMD) April 8, 2023
From Report 24 in Switzerland (Google translate from German, emphases in the original):
Switzerland stops the Covid vaccinations: All vaccination recommendations have been withdrawn, doctors can only administer the controversial vaccines in individual cases under certain conditions - but then bear the risk of liability for vaccination damage. When will countries like Germany and Austria follow this example?
The Federal Office of Public Health (FOPH) and the Federal Commission for Vaccination Issues (EKIF) state, as of 3.4.23, in their vaccination recommendation (can be found on this website):
In principle, the FOPH and EKIF will not formulate a recommendation for vaccination against Covid-19 in spring/summer 2023 due to the expected low virus circulation and the high level of immunity in the population.
Vaccination is only possible in individual cases — namely:
Vaccination is possible for people who are particularly at risk (BGP) ≥ 16 years of age if the attending physician considers it to be medically indicated in the respective epidemiological situation in the individual case, a temporarily increased protection against serious illness is to be expected and the last vaccination dose at least 6 months ago.
However, no vaccination recommendation for risk patients is explicitly given here. (snip)
[Epoch Times] Amish dairy farmer Reuben King’s farm in Lancaster County, Pennsylvania, was raided on Jan. 12, 2022, by the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives (ATF), which charged King with dealing in firearms without a license and confiscated 615 guns.
An undercover ATF agent bought five guns from King between October 2019 and March 2020, court papers filed by the ATF say.
Since Biden took office, there has been an uptick in FFL revocations, Mark Oliva, spokesman for the National Shooting Sports Foundation, told The Epoch Times. Anecdotally, attorneys defending clients facing FFL revocations, or warnings to get an FFL, say they have seen more cases in the last two years.
"They are now revoking permits for what was previously listed as a ’finding’ during the inspection. And that could have been a minor clerical error, misplaced decimal, putting the date in the wrong column, something may have not been signed correctly," Oliva said. "Those are all minor findings that during inspections would have been noted as, ’you need to make these corrections.’ Now they are being termed as ’willful violations’ and are grounds for the ATF to revoke Federal Firearms Licensees’ license."
But King doesn’t need an FFL, his attorney, Joshua Prince, told The Epoch Times. He will argue the FFL itself is unconstitutional.
Written in 1791, the Second Amendment protects the right to keep and bear arms.
"You will not find any laws in existence around the time of the founding that required an individual to obtain a license to be able to sell firearms," Prince said. "It wasn’t until 1938 that the first Federal Firearms Act, requiring sellers of firearms to become licensed, was enacted." That was 147 years later.
The U.S. Supreme Court has said the understanding of the Second Amendment around the time of the founding is the best measure of what the founders intended.

The Feds will argue that they have the power via the commerce clause whose 'interpretation' by SCOTUS gave the feds powers that were not intended by the founders.

Been a firm believer in the 2nd Amendment .
What is more plainly clear "...the right of the people to keep and bear Arms, shall not be infringed.
Basically, unless a person does not have or has lost full US Citizenship rights status. The States and DC Swamp should go pound sand.
FOOD FOR THOUGHT
If the convicted CITIZEN is in prison due to a constitutionally questionable Government reg's regarding just firearm ownership and not the illegal harmful use thereof.
Should imprisonment be a considered constitutionally valid? Or, considered a clear violation of constitutional granted civil rights?

In the famine all of the useless flunkies that were hired during times of plenty get the axe...
In the olden days, we would kill them and eat them. Simpler times.
Well, you see kids, in times of need your neighbors may try to lure you from safety with mere crumbs so they can bludgeon you to death, butcher and eat your remains.

Dad...there's not really monsters, are there?
Well...humans will kill for pleasure and even eat you afterwards as an award. They'll even eat their own children if they get hungry enough. So yes, monsters do exist.
[GP] Green Beret and Republican congressional candidate Jeremy Brown attended the Stop the Steal protests in Washington DC on January 6, 2021. Jeremy joined the Oath Keepers in November of 2020 following the controversial presidential elections and went to Washington DC to provide security at the many protests and rallies that were planned in DC that week.
In March of 2021, Jeremy Brown began speaking out about how the Department of Homeland Security (DHS) and FBI Joint Terrorism Task Force (JTTF) contacted him in December 2020 and attempted to recruit him to spy on patriots and everyday Americans on January 6th.
In December 2020 FBI agents contacted Jeremy Brown at his home for "posting some things online."
Jeremy later released video surveillance of the FBI contacting him at his home. And Jeremy then later released an audio recording of his actual meetup with the FBI.
Jeremy struggled for months about whether or not to go public with this information. But according to his Facebook page — "After listening to politicians and the FBI Director, Chris Wray, tell lie after bald-faced lie to the American People, he could not stay silent any longer."
Jeremy decided his desire to protect and defend the American people and the TRUTH are more important than privacy or personal safety.
So in March 2021 Jeremy joined Brandon Gray on Banned.TV to explain what happened to him after he joined the Oath Keepers in November.
Jeremy released a video of his encounter with government officials when they came to his home. Jeremy also released audio of his meeting with the FBI at a local restaurant when they tried to recruit him to work undercover for him on January 6th in Washington DC.
Jeremy explained in his video that the FBI called his cellphone and asked for a meeting after trying to contact him at his house. Jeremy then met with the FBI agents at a restaurant in Ybor City in December 2020. He told Brandon Gray that 38 seconds into the interview the FBI attempted to recruit him to spy on the Oath Keepers.

It sounds like as soon as he blew the whistle they showed up and went through his stuff until they found some crimes. I have not read anything on the trial, but the article indicates that his brother may have left war trophies with him that were not documented. There would be emails and/or texts that would document the coordination of the retaliation if there was an internal whistleblower or a group like Judicial Watch could get the info in partially redacted form. Jim Jordan and/or Tucker would have to get interested.

[ZERO] Medical codes introduced during the COVID-19 pandemic to show when people are unvaccinated or undervaccinated for COVID-19 are being used to track people, the top U.S. public health agency has confirmed.
The U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) made the confirmation in emails that The Epoch Times obtained through a Freedom of Information Act request.
The CDC had said in documents and public statements that the goal of the new codes, in the International Classification of Diseases (ICD) system, was "to track people who are not immunized or only partially immunized."
The CDC now says it does not have access to the data, but that health care systems do.
"The ICD codes were implemented in April 2022, however the CDC does not have any data on the codes and does not track this information," CDC officials said in the emails.
"The codes were created to enable healthcare providers to track within their practices," the officials added.
The emails were sent to news outlets. The CDC has not answered queries from The Epoch Times about the codes, which the CDC added to the U.S. ICD system in 2022.
[The Nation (Pak)] Police on Friday arrested five suspected killers in Prof Ajmal Sawand’s murder case during raids in several areas of Kashmore.
Kandhkot SSP Irfan Ali Samo said the houses of Sundrani tribe members were being searched in different areas to arrest the killers of Ajmal Sawand. The five arrested suspects have been transferred to an undisclosed location.
The SSP said police had also set fire to several hideouts of the suspects.
The distinguished scholar in the field of computer science who had been serving as a teacher at the Institute of Business Administration (IBA) was rubbed out over an ongoing tribal enmity on Thursday morning. Police said Dr Mohammad Ajmal Sawand was on his way back to Sukkur from his Shawli village when attackers hiding in the woods along the road shot up his car in the Shalo area of Kandhkot, which resulted in his death.
Police said two groups of Sundrani and Sawand clans had an enmity since 2022 due to a clash that erupted between them on a matter of "honour".
The officials further said a woman and four men belonging to the Sundrani clan bit the dust in the clash which took place last year and afterwards the group belonging to the Sawand clan abandoned their homes and fled the Shawli village, in an apparent move to escape reprisal.
The police had cordoned off the area and were raiding various places to arrest the suspects.
Dr Sawand did his PhD from Gay Paree Descartes University and had been teaching at the IBA for the last eight years. His funeral prayers would be offered in Sukkur today [Friday].

[ZERO] Facial recognition firm Clearview has built a massive AI-powered database of billions of pictures collected from social media platforms without obtaining users' consent.
In late March, Clearview AI CEO Hoan Ton-That told BBC in an interview that the company had obtained 30 billion photos without users' knowledge over the years, scraped mainly from social media platforms like Facebook. He said US law enforcement agencies use the database to identify criminals.
Ton-That disputed claims that the photos were unlawfully collected. He told Bussiness Insider in an emailed statement, "Clearview AI's database of publicly available images is lawfully collected, just like any other search engine like Google."
