An emergency room nurse heading home from her shift over the weekend was brutally beaten with a cane inside a Bronx subway station in an unprovoked attack, police said Monday. Irina Langdon, 53, was on the mezzanine in the 149th St.-Grand Concourse No. 4 line station around 11:45 p.m. Saturday when a man attacked her without warning, cops said. He struck her multiple times with a cane in the head, arms and ribs. Two Metropolitan Transportation Authority workers called 911, and Langdon was taken to the emergency room at Lincoln Hospital—where she had been working earlier in the night in the pediatric department.
President Trump waded deeper into the culture wars roiling the US on Monday—defending the team names of the Washington Redskins and Cleveland Indians and slamming them for being “politically correct.” “They name teams out of STRENGTH, not weakness, but now the Washington Redskins & Cleveland Indians, two fabled sports franchises, look like they are going to be changing their names in order to be politically correct. Indians, like Elizabeth Warren, must be very angry right now!” Trump tweeted.(Snip) Nike appeared to have pulled Redskins merchandise off its website after FedEx publicly called on the franchise to change its name, putting increasing pressure
Manhattan—A woman involved in a racist incident in Central Park in May is being charged with falsely reporting the incident, the Manhattan district attorney said on Monday. Amy Cooper, who has since been dubbed “Central Park Karen,” was issued a desk appearance ticket for an arraignment on Oct. 14.

Pro-lifers have long accused Planned Parenthood of racism, but the nation’s largest abortion provider may face a reckoning led by hundreds of employees and supporters who have charged the organization with being “steeped in white supremacy.”
A letter signed by more than 350 “current and former staffers” of Planned Parenthood of Greater New York, as well as about 800 donors, supporters and volunteers, declared that founder Margaret Sanger was “a racist, white woman” and that the organization suffers from “institutional racism.”(Snip) Planned Parenthood is the latest institution upended by the Black Lives Matter protest.

Prince Harry today faced criticism after he appeared to take a swipe at the British Empire by saying the history of the Commonwealth 'must be acknowledged', even if it's 'uncomfortable'. The Duke of Sussex, 35, made the comment as he joined wife Meghan Markle, 38, for a video call with young leaders from the Queen's Commonwealth Trust last week that was made public today. As part of the discussion on 'justice and equal rights', Harry said the Commonwealth needs to follow others who have 'acknowledged the past' and are 'trying to right their wrongs', and also admitted to having his own 'unconscious bias'.
Under a tent on a blazing hot morning, Minneapolis officer Mike Nimlos described a police force that is overwhelmed. "We need to get out there and do more proactive work, but we don't have the bodies," Nimlos told several dozen North Siders gathered in a backyard. "We barely have enough time to answer calls—we're going from one call to the next call to the next call. Officers are getting burned out. They're getting tired."(Snip) "After my house was struck by gunfire, I'm not going to feel safe no matter how many cops go past," said Crystal Rosebear of north Minneapolis.
Rochester, N.Y.—Police are investigating an act of vandalism, after a statue of Frederick Douglass was removed from its base at Maplewood Park during the Fourth of July holiday weekend. Leaders from ‘Re-energize the legacy of Frederick Douglass’ are shocked a monument they worked so hard on will have to be replaced.(Snip) The statue was one of 13 placed throughout the city in 2018, and this is the second monument to be vandalized.

Police in Martinez, California, are seeking a white man and woman who were filmed defacing a city-permitted Black Lives Matter street mural on Independence Day. In the video, posted to YouTube, an onlooker can be heard asking a woman who is slathering black paint over the vibrant yellow block letters, “What’s wrong with you?” “We’re sick of this narrative, that’s what’s wrong,” replies a male voice offscreen. “The narrative of police brutality, the narrative of oppression, the narrative of racism–it’s a lie.”(Snip) “This is racism is what it is,” said the man of the sign, as he came into view wearing
Food and Drug Administration Commissioner Stephen Hahn said it was “concerning” that a new survey found more than a quarter of adults would “definitely” or “probably” not accept a free coronavirus vaccine. During a discussion about the possible timetable for developing a vaccine, Hahn was asked what happens if all of those people refuse. “It is a sizable number. And it is concerning. And, of course, the issue of vaccines in this country has been around for a number of years,” he said on ABC News’ “This Week.” The ABC News/Washington Post poll found that 27 percent were wary of getting a vaccine.
Escambia County, Fla.—An investigation into an alleged noose believed to have been found at the International Paper Co. mill in Cantonment has come to an end. International Paper's Director of Marketing Thomas Ryan tells Channel 3 that what they found on site in late June was actually not a noose at all. Ryan says they immediately partnered with a third party to investigate the supposed noose. That third party group, he says, was very diverse. Ryan says the investigators reviewed current and historical photographs and interviewed more than 60 employees and contractors. They found the rope was actually used to hold up cables,
Population growth in the United States has been driven only by minorities in the last decade, according to a new report. Data analysis by Brookings suggests the last decade will also be the first in America's history where the white population declined in numbers. Estimates released by the US Census Bureau ahead of the 2020 results show that last year, for the first time, more than 50 per cent of those under 16 also identified as a racial or ethnic minority.(Snip) Data shows that 80 per cent of the population identified as white in 1980; by 2000 that had dropped to 69.1 per cent.

Russian President Vladimir Putin has mocked the decision by U.S. officials to fly a rainbow pride flag over the embassy in Moscow, saying it “tells you something about the people who work there.”During a televised video conference on Friday, Putin was told that the American embassy had hung a rainbow flag on its facade for the first time to celebrate Pride Month in June. “Who works in this building?” Putin asked the speaker, Sen.

A direct descendant of Thomas Jefferson has called for the memorial to the third president to be removed from Washington, D.C. Writing in the New York Times Monday morning, Lucian K. Truscott IV says his ancestor’s former estate at Monticello is enough of a tribute and that the Jefferson Memorial, located next to the Tidal Basin in the nation’s capital, should be replaced with a statue honoring the abolitionist hero Harriet Tubman. “The memorial is a shrine to a man who during his lifetime owned more than 600 slaves and had at least six children with one of them, Sally
Grand Master Jay, the self-described leader of the black militia NFAC is advocating for a “new black nation,” suggesting that Texas will do just fine, as soon as the Lone Star state can be ceded to them.
As seen in a video making the rounds, when asked about the solution to events, Jay had plenty to say about a black ethnostate inside the United States, as a social media user characterized the group’s objective.
“The solution is very simple,” he responded. “We file a declaration of liberation, declaring every African-American descendant of slavery a political prisoner here in the United States, that was affected by the Portuguese slave trade,

One of the Seattle Black Lives Matter protesters struck by a car while blocking Interstate 5 early July 4th has died and her death has forced state cops to re-think their permissive policies allowing protesters to take over freeways.
Summer Taylor was blocking the freeway with a small group of Black Lives Matter demonstrators on the southbound lanes of I-5, the main artery through Seattle, about 1:30 a.m. Saturday.
A 27-year-old man was arrested. Police identified him as Dawit Kelete, and they say he was sober.
In an impassioned press conference Sunday night, Atlanta Mayor Keisha Lance Bottoms issued a full-throated call for citizens to stop "shooting each other up on our streets," after an eight-year-old girl was shot and killed on the Fourth of July near a Wendy's that has become a flashpoint of anti-police Black Lives Matter (BLM) protests in the city.
Bottoms, a Democrat who is considered a potential running mate for Joe Biden, made the remarks as she fought through tears -- and the nation endured a new bout of urban carnage.
Sunday on MSNBC’s “AM Joy,” Washington Post opinion writer Jennifer Rubin argued President Donald Trump’s recent speeches were a “hateful,” attempt to go to war with fellow Americans.Rubin said, “I think he’s in a desperate position, and it seems as though he’s not even trying right now. When you look at polls, not only is Biden substantially ahead, but he’s over 50% in many of these polls. That means in order to win, Trump has to win back those voters. But he’s not winning back anyone. He is basically playing to that core group of voters who thrive on racial grievance, on resentment on fear.

"Death to AmeriKKKA" is newspeak for Peaceful Demonstration. The police must have been on a break when they let the Protestors break out the windows and set the place on fire.
