Medical Update: Rand Paul Sustained 6 Broken Ribs, Pleural Effusion

#1  I have had a few patients with a history of multiple rib fractures wind up on a ventilator days after the injury, for a variety of reasons. Pneumonia is also a possibility since patients cannot take normal breaths.

#2  Louisville Courier-Journal added this:
Kentucky State Police charged Boucher with fourth-degree assault, which is usually reserved for incidents that result in minor injuries. If federal charges are added, Boucher could face 10 years in prison for physically attacking a politician.

Posted by: Deacon Blues || 11/09/2017 6:58 Comments || Top||

#6  A couple of years ago I spent a week in hospital.

The chart read "Very large right pleural effusion".

This condition was the result of pneumonia and hurt like hell. Totally collapsed my right lung and they had to excavate to remove all the crud.
Drained 4 liters of gunk.

My sympathy goes out to Rand Paul and hope they throw the book at Boucher.

#7  Broken Ribs are the #1 root cause of traumatic death in the elderly. That's why the first question any care giver asks, is have you fallen? It's not that you can't get up but that you suffer lung damage and pneumonia.

The current surgical treatment takes 6 hours and is medieval. The alternative is to let them heal in place, which is OK if the bones reconnect properly but some will not. So they will reknit at odd angles. Paul is in for a lot of pain. He will likely suffer from this injury for the rest of his life.

For some reason Boucher is being undercharged when he should be institutionalized. Expect more leftist violence.

#8  For some reason Boucher is being undercharged
It's not the severity of the injury that determines the charge, but the circumstances of its infliction and what can be proven. If Boucher claims there was an argument and he just pushed Paul, who fell and was injured, and there is no way to prove otherwise, the current charge may be all they can do(IANAL.)

#11  Boucher’s neighbors described him as an avowed socialist known for getting into heated political arguments. Boucher’s Facebook page revealed him to hold fervent anti-Trump beliefs, stating in one post that he hopes Special Counsel Robert Mueller will “fry Trump’s gonads.”

Avowed socialist.
Gets into heated political arguments.
Wants to fry Trump's gonads.

Don't those on the left all feel this way? I might add one more: They think they are always right and never quit talking. O.K. two.

Man who claimed to be first 'Dreamer' deported under Trump arrested again for allegedly trying to enter US
[FoxNews] A man who claimed to be the first “Dreamer” to be deported under the Trump administration was arrested again for attempting to return to the U.S. for the second time this year, authorities said Wednesday.

Juan Manuel Montes, 23, was taken into custody near Calexico, Calif., for illegally re-entering the U.S. late Monday night, the U.S. Border Patrol said.

Montes was spotted by agents just north of a border fence, and allegedly ran from them for about 200 yards before lying down. He then attempted to get up again and run, but was quickly caught, the Border Patrol said.

Montes was booked into the Imperial County Jail and faces a felony charge that could land him in jail for two years, according to USA Today.

Montes’ lawyers have claimed that their client was the first-known participant in the Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals program to be deported under President Trump. The U.S. has denied that, saying that Montes left the country voluntarily causing him to lose his protected status under the DACA program.

Montes, who came to the United States when he was nine, has a cognitive disability that likely stems from a childhood brain injury, according to his lawyers.

A Hidden Scandal Worse Than Uranium One
Our friends at the Center for Security Policy have issued one of their "occasional papers" on a scandal that we think is worse and more threatening to national security than the Uranium One scandal through which Hillary Clinton and Obama transferred 20 percent of America’s uranium to Russia.

What could be worse than giving 20 percent of our uranium to Russia one might ask?

How about giving a 35-year lease to one of America’s largest container ports, located just minutes from the Kennedy Space Center, to a Middle Eastern company with ties to Iran, North Korea, Russia and the evil genius behind Saddam Hussein’s nuclear weapons program?

But that’s exactly what the same players involved in the Uranium One deal did when they leased the cargo container operations at Port Canaveral, Florida after two years of secret talks
...
Indeed, Port Canaveral is near a number of important U.S. facilities‐including the Navy’s East Coast ballistic missile submarine base, two U.S. Air Force Space Command bases and NASA’s Kennedy Space Center. Additionally, Port Canaveral and its container facilities are connected directly to rail and road lines that provide ready transportation access to the entire country.

"The Perfect Storm: Project Pelican’s Gulftainer, Russia’s Club-K, KGB’s Primakov, North Korea, and the Architects of the Islamic Bloc and the Iran Nuclear Deal" now reveals that the danger to U.S. national security may be exponentially more critical.

Dr. Jafar Dhia Jafar worked closely with the Russians on Iraq’s full range of Weapons of Mass Destruction programs, including the nuclear one. He succeeded in designing a miniaturized nuclear warhead similar to the model that North Korean leader Kim Jong Un posed with earlier in 2017. Worse yet, Gulftainer, the Iraqi-UAE company that was allowed to obtain the Port Canaveral container facility lease, has entered into a joint venture with the Russian state-owned firm which owns 100% of the shares of Rosoboronexport, the exporter of the Club-K system.

The Club-K is a cruise missile launch system concealed in a container whose external appearance looks identical to standard ISO intermodal commercial cargo shipping containers. Inside each Club-K container, however, are four missiles which can carry biological, chemical, conventional, Electro-Magnetic Pulse (EMP), or nuclear warheads. The genius of the Club-K system is its ability to evade detection among the millions of shipping containers carried on ships, trains, and trucks all over the world, including inside the U.S.

Now, the Russian maker of the Club-K has partnered with the Iraqi-UAE company headed by the nuclear mastermind who designed a nuclear warhead specifically to fit on the nosecone of the Club-K cruise missile.

Also, Ras al-Khaimah (RAK), one of the seven UAE emirates, runs a shipping company in partnership with Iran, which essentially controls RAK’s main shipping port. And a broken and possibly corrupt CFIUS just gave them all access to a 35-year lease on the container facilities at one of America’s most critical ports.

Al Sharpton to lead prayer service for Rep. Frederica Wilson
[WASHINGTONEXAMINER] civil rights hustler Al Sharpton
...Tawana Brawley's spiritual advisor...
will lead a prayer service to honor Rep. Frederica Wilson on Saturday, after her recent faceoff with President Trump and White House chief of staff John Kelly.

"In an effort towards healing and unifying our community during these times of pain and conflict, faith leaders will join together at a prayer service to cover Congresswoman Frederica S. Wilson (FL-24) in prayer as she continues to be a voice for the voiceless," a statement from Wilson’s office read.

Wilson's office said Myeshia Johnson, the wife of fallen Army Sgt. La David Johnson, will also receive a prayer.

Hillary Clinton is in 'secret negotiations' with ex-British spy Christopher Steele to buy SECOND 'dirty dossier' on Trump's romantic englements [sic] with Russian women, claims Clinton author
[DailyMail] - Ed Klein, author of four books on the Clintons, claims Hillary's minions are in secret talks with Russian dossier author Christopher Steele, in an attempt to end his 'illegitimate presidency'

- The second dossier will allegedly contain evidence that Trump had 'romantic involvements with Russian women' connected to the Kremlin's spy apparatus

- The original Russian dossier has been discredited

- '[Hillary's] convinced that Trump made business deals with Russians with ties to the Kremlin in return to offer them favorable trade conditions,' a source tells Klein

- Hillary has been described as 'completely unrepentant' about funding the first dossier, and 'adamant' about releasing a second

- Klein's new book, All Out War: The Plot to Destroy Trump, reveals Hillary's never-ending crusade against the president

Get rid of ‘The Star-Spangled Banner’ as national anthem, Cal NAACP
[MIAMIHERALD] When California lawmakers return to the Capitol in January, the state chapter of the NAACP will be seeking their support for a campaign to remove “The Star-Spangled Banner” as the national anthem.

The organization last week began circulating among legislative offices two resolutions that passed at its state conference in October: one urging Congress to rescind “one of the most racist, pro-slavery, anti-black songs in the American lexicon” as the national anthem, and another in support of former San Francisco 49ers quarterback Colin Kaepernick, who launched a protest movement against police brutality among professional athletes by kneeling when “The Star-Spangled Banner” was played before games.

“We owe a lot of it to Kaepernick,” California NAACP President Alice Huffman said. “I think all this controversy about the knee will go away once the song is removed.”

The kneeling protests have drawn attention to an infrequently-sung third verse from “The Star-Spangled Banner,” which includes the passage:
Their blood has wash'd out their foul footstep's pollution.

No refuge could save the hireling and slave

From the terror of flight or the gloom of the grave
Some interpretations of the lyrics conclude that they celebrate the deaths of black American slaves who joined British troops during the War of 1812 to gain their freedom. Francis Scott Key, who wrote the lyrics of “The Star-Spangled Banner,” was a slave owner and fierce opponent of abolition who may have sparked the first race riot in Washington, D.C.

Huffman said Congress, which adopted “The Star-Spangled Banner” as the national anthem in 1931, should find a replacement that is not “another song that disenfranchises part of the American population.”


Die Stem (The Call of SA - Note the similarities) is now outlawed, along with the old flag. Probably just a coincidence. Nothing to do with a communist takeover.

"Diversity" Student leader works to shut down Dennis Prager's talk on ‘why socialism makes people selfish'
[TheCollegeFix] Protester says ‘this will be another Milo situation.’

A student government diversity leader has vowed to work “tirelessly” to shut down conservative Dennis Prager’s upcoming talk at the University of Wyoming.

So far, Hunter McFarland has amassed a group of nearly three dozen peers who say on social media they plan to help protest the talk, titled “Why Socialism Makes People Selfish.”

According to the Laramie Boomerang, McFarland told Jessie Leach, president of the university’s Turning Point USA chapter, in an email that “If you continue, you will have the entire campus against you. This will be another Milo situation.”

McFarland was referring to anti-feminist provocateur Milo Yiannopoulos, who has had speeches canceled at multiple campuses nationwide and was prevented from speaking earlier this year at UC Berkeley because of riots.
