One maskless photo at an off-campus party has cost three students at UMass Amherst their entire spring semester. The three female freshmen were attending an off-campus party when they snapped the maskless photo, which was posted on Instagram. It's not clear when the party took place, though one student has a clover on her shirt and many students are wearing green, suggesting it could date back to St. Patrick's Day. A party known as the 'Blarney Blowout' is typically thrown at the school during March. The three students have since been suspended from UMass Amherst, which may only be the beginning of their disciplinary problems at school.

Trending on Twitter, 7 May, was this: VAERS and Yellow Card databases show unverified reports of COVID-19 vaccine-related side effects and deaths that can be submitted by anyone, according to the CDC and fact checkers.

DENVER – The Denver Fire Department is sounding an alarm over a growing number of propane explosions at homeless encampments. It says it has responded to more than 200 fires in or near homeless encampments in the last four months alone — more than one a day on average — and in almost every camp they find propane tanks. A 20 pound tank of the highly flammable gas is the equivalent of 100 sticks of dynamite. Firefighters say many camps — in populated areas, along busy streets, and under bridges — have several tanks of propane. It’s a dangerous mix

In April 2020 Democrats, Black Lives Matter, Hollywood, NBA, the tech giants, and Major US Corporations launched their official War on Police across the United States. The consequences of their actions have been devastating, resulting in 1,990 more homicides in urban centers this past year. The Democrat War on Civil Society resulted in a 33% increase in homicides across the major urban centers across the United States. We can all blame this on Democrats. But what happens when the Police themselves protect BLM who wants to abolish them instead of honest taxpaying patriots.

LONDON — Britain's governing Conservative Party made further inroads in the north of England on Friday, winning a special election in the post-industrial town of Hartlepool for a parliamentary seat that the main opposition Labour Party had held since 1974. Managing to present themselves as the party of change despite having led the U.K. for 11 years, Prime Minister Boris Johnson's Conservatives extended their grip on parts of England that had been Labour strongholds for decades, if not a century. Many of these seats that have flipped from red to blue voted heavily in 2016 for Britain’s departure from the European Union.
