[NYPOST] Two homeless men attacked a father of five with a machete at a Caliphornia, an impregnable bastion of the Democratic Party, beach — leaving him with gruesome injuries, authorities said.
The family from out of town was eating lunch on Dan Blocker Beach in Malibu Sunday when two homeless men approached, telling them they "were not allowed" there, according to the Los Angeles County Sheriff’s Department.
An argument ensued and one of the suspects, Richard Franck, pulled out a machete and started hacking at the father, cutting the man’s upper torso and hand, the Los Angeles County Sheriff’s Department said.
Franck and another homeless man, Benjamin Mast, then proceeded to chase the family of five from the beach back to a parking lot near the Pacific Coast Highway, deputies told the Malibu Times.
Some 20 officers responded to the scene, and Franck and Mast were later arrested following a brief standoff at the parking lot, where they had "locked themselves" into a restroom, LASD officials told the newspaper.
"Through different statements from the suspect and the accomplice, the weapon was located stashed in some bushes down by the beach," LASD Lt. Jim Braden said.

Wonder what would have happened on a open carry Texas beach?

You shouldn't need a gun for a family picnic on the beach. Most likely, if the father had used a gun, he would have been the one who was arrested and he wouldn't be promptly released the way LA's DA George Gascon is likely to do for the two homeless men. You see, in Newsom's California, the homeless are free to do whatever they want while the rest of us pay.

[FOXNEWS] A former Arizona male nurse pleaded guilty Thursday to sexually assaulting an incapacitated woman roughly three years ago at Hacienda Healthcare, a long-term care facility in Phoenix, where she later gave birth.
Defendant Nathan Sutherland also entered a guilty plea to an "abuse of a vulnerable adult" charge stemming from his treatment of the woman.
As part of a plea agreement, the sentencing range for the sexual assault charge is between 5 ¼ and 10 years in prison, while the abuse of a vulnerable adult charge brings lifetime probation.
Another former Hacienda nurse blasted the plea deal as "a slap on the wrist," and said other Hacienda colleagues were "furious" about it.
"This man did a heinous crime and he's getting a slap on the wrist and it's not right and everyone I talked to that worked at Hacienda, they're furious. None of us can believe that's all he's going to get is a slap on the wrist," said Davena Ballard, who was a nurse at a Hacienda-affiliated program, according to KPHO-TV of Phoenix.
Sutherland was arrested after police conducted a DNA test showing he was the father of the patient's baby, KPHO-TV of Phoenix reported. The patient was in the long-term care facility after a near-drowning incident left her in a vegetative state.
Following Sutherland's guilty pleas, Perry Petrilli, chief executive of Hacienda Healthcare, expressed relief.
"We have cooperated in every way possible with law enforcement and Sherlocks — and now we hope the judge will sentence Sutherland appropriately given the severity of his crimes," Petrilli said. "As ever, our hearts are with the victim and her family. May these final steps in the legal process help them find peace."
The pregnancy was discovered in December 2018 when an employee at Hacienda was changing the garments of the victim — age 29 at the time — and noticed she was in the process of delivering a child. Employees told police they had no idea the woman was pregnant.
The surprise prompted reviews by state agencies and led to the resignations of Hacienda’s chief executive and one of the victim’s doctors. It also highlighted safety concerns for severely disabled or incapacitated patients.
A lawsuit from the victim’s parents alleged that Sutherland had cared for their daughter on hundreds of occasions from 2012 through 2018, despite promises from the state that only women would tend to her. The state has contracts with companies like Hacienda to provide services to people with developmental disabilities.
Many of Sutherland’s encounters with the patient allegedly occurred overnight, when fewer staff members and visitors were around, according to an expert on behalf of the victim's family.
The victim lived at Hacienda for 26 years, until the child’s birth. Her medical conditions stemmed from a brain disorder that caused motor and cognitive impairments and vision loss. She was also left with no functional use of her limbs.
Sutherland was fired by Hacienda after his arrest and has since given up his nursing license. He was facing a maximum of 14 years in prison prior to the plea deal, FOX 10 of Phoenix reported.
A judge approved a $15 million settlement against a doctor who cared for the woman for 26 years while she lived at Hacienda. The doctor’s insurer has argued it has no obligation to pay that amount.
The state of Arizona, which contracts with companies like Hacienda to provide services to people with developmental disabilities, settled last summer for $7.5 million.
Sutherland is scheduled to be sentenced on Nov. 4.

[NYPOST] A rogue 911 phone operator in New Orleans allegedly hung up on callers who dialed the emergency response line for help.
Precious Stephens, 25, faces charges of malfeasance and interfering with an emergency communication after disconnecting phone calls without getting any information or relaying the incidents to emergency dispatchers, the New Orleans Police Department said.
The Orleans Gay Pareeh Communications District reported Stephens to police on Aug. 23 after investigating a random set of calls with Stephens during her shifts on Aug. 20 and Aug. 21, officials told NOLA.com.
"(The district) has and will continue to cooperate with the ... investigation into this matter and is dedicated to providing any and all assistance to aid in (the) efforts," read a statement from the communications district.
Stephens was on the loose Thursday night.

To her credit it is hard to understand the Napkins accent. Or the way they phrase things, for example:
A 911 operator is sitting at her desk when she gets a call.
"911 What's your emergency?" She answers.
"My friend and I were walking through the woods when he just collapsed. I think he died." A man responds. He is very nervous
"Ok, calm down. First, make sure he's dead." The operator replies.
There's a silence on the phone. Then, there's a gunshot.
What was her reason?
Was it truly random, social level, location, Racially motivated, or was it because she did not want to risk damaging her "Precious" fingernails?
One things for sure, Social Media scrubbed links to her accounts quickly.

[NYPOST] The New Jersey corpse count from Hurricane Ida rose overnight to 25 — and will "sadly likely" increase again with at least six people still missing, Gov. Phil Murphy said Friday.
"We’re still not out of the woods," Murphy warned on the "Today" show as he announced the latest heartbreaking tally.
"We still have a lot of damage that we’re dealing with, [and] we still have floodwaters that are significantly higher than normal," he said of the "historic" storm.
"We’ll get back on our feet — but it may be a long road," he warned of the devastation suffered across the Garden State.
Murphy noted that the tornado that destroyed parts of the state — destroying some house — "did not take any lives" as "everybody went down into the basement and they lived."
Instead, "all of these deaths are related in either directly or indirectly to flooding in water, either in cars or homes," Murphy said.
"It’s an absolute tragedy, bless their souls," he said.

[FOX] The government of South Australia, one of the country's six states, has implemented a new policy requiring Australians to use an app with facial recognition software and geolocation to prove that they are abiding by a 14-day quarantine for travel within the country.
While a conservative expert described the policy as "Orwellian," he told Fox News that it represents an improvement over the current COVID-19 policy. Australians voluntarily choose the quarantine app over alternative quarantine measures.
Australia has banned international travel, unless residents have a permit to leave the country. The country has also severely restricted domestic travel. Residents must spend 14 days in quarantine upon return.

[Breitbart] President Joe Biden’s Federal Trade Commission has begun to look into the too-oft broken McDonald’s ice cream machines, which have angered consumers and franchise owners for years.
The Federal Trade Commission (FTC) has carried out an inquiry into the Mcdonald’s broken ice cream machines. The inquiry seeks to discover if Taylor Commercial Foodservice LLC, the manufacturer of the machines, has engaged in practices that hinder McDonald’s owners’ abilities to fix machines themselves or seek repairs from a third party

Nah - they will find some poor unfortunate sap on the street, charge him for insurrection, and dump him in a very deep hole with no contact with the outside world. (See Jan 6th)
[GreatMountainPublishing] Dr. Bryan Ardis makes an astounding revelation. He states that Dr. Fauci pushed the use of Veklury® (remdesivir) as a treatment for COVID-19 knowing that it would be unsafe and ineffective for patients. Veklury® (remdesivir) is a nucleotide analogue RNA polymerase inhibitor. Dr. Ardis reveals that the symptoms of lungs filling with fluid and the other alleged COVID-19 symptoms were actually side effects of kidney poisoning and other organ damage that are known side-effects of Veklury® (remdesivir). Dr. Ardis alleges that the devestating health toll allegedly caused by COVID-19 was actually caused by the NIH recommended treatment of Veklury® (remdesivir).
The following is a list of those people on the NIH Panel on COVID-19 Treatment Guidelines who had financial ties to Gilead Sciences, the manufacturer of Veklury® (remdesivir):
Rajesh Gandhi is on the advisory board of Gilead Sciences.
David Glidden is a consultant for Gilead Sciences.
Adaora Adimora is a consultant for Gilead Sciences and received research support from Gilead Sciences.
Eric Daar is a consultant for Gilead Sciences and recieves research support from Gilead Sciences.
Judith Aberg received research support from Gilead Sciences.
Jason Baker received research support from Gilead Sciences.
Susanna Naggie received research support from Gilead Sciences.
Pablo Tebas received research support from Gilead Sciences.
Roger Bedimo received an honoraria from Gilead Sciences.
The panel, of course, had an interest in undermining inexpensive and effective treatements: "[T]he Panel recommends against the use of the following drugs for the treatment of COVID-19: The combination of hydroxychloroquine plus azithromycin because of the potential for toxicities." That was not true. Indeed many subsequent studies have shown that the hydroxychloroquine plus azithromycin "combination is safe and may avoid worsening, virus persistence, and subsequent contagiosity."
This author previous wrote an article explaining the extreme efforts taken to discredit hydroxychloroquine. Doctors conducting studies purposely administered toxic levels of hydroxychlorquine to falsely show that it was dangerous to patients.
This is the part I have tried to point out that you can check out for yourself with a copy of the allegedly authoritative study and a 2017 copy of the PDR.
Remdesivir Adverse Effects
Many of the studies cited in support of NIH’s recommendation to use Veklury® (remdesivir) were in vitro studies or animal studies. A couple of the human studies were at best a mixed bag. Two of the most authoritative studies showed Veklury® (remdesivir) to be ineffective and unsafe.
In a randomized, open-label clinical trial (Study GS-US-540-5773) of remdesivir in 397 subjects with severe COVID-19 treated with remdesivir for 5 (n=200) or 10 days (n=197), adverse events were reported in 71% and 74% of subjects, respectively, serious adverse events were reported in 21% and 35% of subjects, respectively, and Grade=3 adverse events were reported in 31% and 43% of subjects, respectively. Nine (5%) subjects in the 5-day group and 20 (10%) subjects in the 10-day group discontinued treatment due to an adverse event. All cause mortality at Day 28 was 10% vs 13% in the 5- and 10-day treatment groups, respectively.
Please do not miss the fact that there were reported 71% adverse events in the 5-day study and 74% adverse events in the 10-day study for patients taking Veklury® (remdesivir). 21% suffered serious adverse events in the 5 day study and 35% of the patients suffered serious adverse events in the 10-day study. Below is the chart of adverse events published in the study.
Since I don't have a web host I'm leaving out the chart
Study GS-US-540-5773 was a randomized, open-label clinical trial in hospitalized adult subjects with severe COVID-19 treated with VEKLURY 200 mg on Day 1 and 100 mg once daily for 5 (n=200) or 10 days (n=197). Adverse reactions were reported in 33 (17%) subjects in the 5-day group and 40 (20%) subjects in the 10-day group. The most common adverse reactions occurring in at least 5% of subjects in either the VEKLURY 5-day or 10-day group, respectively, were nausea (5% vs 3%), AST increased (3% vs 6%), and ALT increased (2% vs 7%). Rates of any adverse reaction, serious adverse reactions, and adverse reactions leading to treatment discontinuation are presented in Table 6. [Chart 6 indicated that 3% of the 5 day group and 5% of the 10 day group had treatment discontinued due to adverse reactions.]
Notice the differences in reporting. The May 2020 report describes adverse events, whereas the October 2020 report changes the reporting to adverse reactions. The difference is that an adverse reaction denotes a causal relationship and an adverse event is an event that may or may not be causally related. A reaction is sometimes defined as the response to a medication where that response is at least resonably possible to have been caused by the medication. By concealing the adverse events and only reporting adverse reactions, the October 2020 FDA report conceals the real danger from Veklury® (remdesivir). Keep in mind that an adverse reaction must be established by a reasonable possibility. Such nebulous standards for distinguishing adverse events from adverse reactions are ripe for abuse. An adverse event could be causally related but the reviewer may just decide it is not reasonable to infer it is causally linked, and thus it would not be called an adverse reaction.
That should be enough to get started with. Additional sections of the original article, which I suggest you read, include:

Kidney Damage From Remdesivir is Foreseeable

[NYPOST] Space company Firefly launched its so-called Alpha rocket for the first time on Thursday evening, but it blew up just a couple minutes into the flight due to an "anomaly."
Video of the test flight shows the non-crewed rocket cradling toward space for more than two minutes after its successful blast-off.
Then the rocket hit supersonic speed, according to the company’s mission control audio, meaning it passed the speed of sound.
Moments later, it went kaboom!.
"Alpha experienced an anomaly during first stage ascent that resulted in the loss of the vehicle. As we gather more information, additional details will be provided," the privately held Austin, Texas-based company said in a tweet.
The 95-feet tall rocket launched from Vandenberg Space Force Base in Caliphornia, an impregnable bastion of the Democratic Party, a little before 10 p.m. ET.
