A California father's harrowing final moments have emerged in harrowing police footage showing him scream 'I can't breathe' while dying as he was held face-down on the ground so cops could extract a blood sample. Edward Bronstein, 38, died on March 31, 2020, less than two months before George Floyd was killed by police in Minnesota, after an altercation during his arrest on suspicion of driving under the influence. He was pulled over for a DUI, but taken to a police station after refusing to give a blood sample, which his family says was due to a fear of needles.(Snip)Five officers can be seen kneeling on him

Education Secretary Miguel Cardona on Friday accused Florida of playing political games with children and said its 'Don't Say Gay Bill' amounted to bullying in 'our own backyard.' The state's Parental Rights in Education bill has triggered national controversy, adding fuel to the nation's culture wars over what should and should not be taught in schools. It prohibits 'classroom discussion about sexual orientation or gender identity' and was passed last week by the state legislature.(Snip)On Thursday, Cardona and other administration officials held a closed-door meeting with Florida LGBTQ students and their families.

The Kremlin on Friday took a shot at President Biden’s cognitive ability after he called Russian President Vladimir Putin a “murderous dictator.” Speaking with reporters in Moscow, Kremlin spokesperson Dmitry Peskov referenced Mr. Biden’s frequent gaffes at public events. “Given Mr. Biden’s irritability, his fatigue and sometimes forgetfulness … which ultimately leads to aggressive statements, we probably will not give any sharp assessments so as not to cause more aggression,” Mr. Peskov said. In St. Patrick’s Day remarks on Thursday, Mr. Biden described Mr. Putin as “a pure thug who is waging an immoral war against the people of Ukraine.”(Snip)Mr. Peskov dismissed Mr. Biden’s statements as “personal insults.”
Maserati is planning to create an electric version of all of its super sports car models by 2025, and ax all gasoline engines by 2030-despite the sports' cars famous engine roar being one of the key reasons motoring enthusiasts buy them. The Italian sports car firm, which has fallen behind rivals Ferrari and Lamborghini in recent years, says it will offer an electric version of all its cars by 2025-and plans to scrap gasoline engines entirely by 2030. 'That's the landing spot,' Maserati CEO Davide Grasso said of the eight-year project. 'It will affect different parts of the world with a different type of speed, depending
Police have arrested a man accused of robbing a woman at knifepoint in a Home Depot parking lot in northeast Atlanta last month.
Steve Jerome White, 64, was charged with armed robbery, aggravated assault, false imprisonment and possession of a knife during the commission of a felony in connection with the violent Feb. 24 encounter, police said in a news release Thursday. According to investigators, White slipped into a 59-year-old woman’s SUV as she loaded items into her vehicle after shopping at the Home Depot at the Lindbergh Plaza shopping mall at 2525 Piedmont Road.(Snip)Police noted that White is a felon who’s been arrested nearly 50 times
Washington—Drugmaker Moderna asked the Food and Drug Administration on Thursday to authorize a fourth shot of its COVID-19 vaccine as a booster dose for all adults. The request is broader than rival pharmaceutical company Pfizer’s request earlier this week for the regulator to approve a booster shot for all seniors. In a press release, the company said its request for approval for all adults was made “to provide flexibility” to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention and medical providers to determine the “appropriate use” of a second booster dose of the mRNA vaccine, “including for those at higher risk of COVID-19 due to age or comorbidities.”
A Manhattan man who was beaten by a mob of dirt bikers—along with his father—said Thursday that the wild, caught-on-video brawl was sparked by a mere “accident.” The 35-year-old man told The Post he now worries about his 64-year-old father, who suffered a concussion and is struggling after the disturbing broad-daylight assault Tuesday in Harlem. “I’m OK, I’m just really concerned about him, concerned about my father,” he said. “I want them to find them, and justice. “Because it was an accident, all right? What was the point of assaulting an elderly guy? Like 10 people. Anybody’s a man with 10 people.”
Federal prosecutors targeting Steve Bannon for contempt of Congress admitted Wednesday that they did not seek higher approval within the Justice Department before spying on Steve Bannon's lawyer. A federal judge on Wednesday ordered the Justice Department to produce internal records related to their decision to prosecute Bannon, a win for the former Trump adviser. U.S. District Judge Carl Nichols seemed disturbed by the unusual move, repeatedly asking prosecutors why they thought it was proper to secretly gather records of defense attorney Robert Costello's private phone calls, text messages, and emails. Nichols also said that Bannon's team should be offered Justice Department 'statements or writings' that justify
President Joe Biden called Vladimir Putin a 'murderous dictator and pure thug' in his St Patrick's Day speech on Thursday that started with the quip: 'I may be Irish but I am not stupid'. Biden ramped up his attacks on the Russian leader, a day after finally calling him a war criminal, in remarks that started with him going through his Irish heritage at the annual Friends of Ireland Luncheon. 'Father before I began, bless me, father I'm about to sin,' Biden cracked, making the sign of the cross as he addressed Rev. Thomas O'Connor while standing between Irish and American flags inside the wood paneled Rayburn Room
The federal government paid out at least $163 billion in bogus pandemic unemployment benefits, and less than 1% of that bad money has actually been recovered, an inspector general told Congress on Thursday. Labor Department Inspector General Larry D. Turner said the states that doled out the federal money weren’t prepared for the massive infusion of cash in their unemployment systems and were using outdated systems easily exploited by fraudsters. The result is that of $872.5 billion in federal unemployment money spent, at least $163 billion—or 18.71%—of that were improper payments. The inspector general said just $830 million has been recovered two years into the pandemic, which works out
Four Disney employees were among more than 100 people arrested as part of a human trafficking operation in Florida, authorities said.
Polk County Sheriff Grady Judd on Wednesday announced the arrest of 108 people as part of "Operation March Sadness 2," a six-day undercover operation. One of the Disney employees was a 27-year-old man who worked as a lifeguard at Disney's Polynesian Village Resort, Judd said.(Snip)Another Disney employee arrested was a 24-year-old man who worked at the Cosmic Restaurant. Other Disney employees arrested were a 45-year-old IT worker and a 27-year-old software developer, Judd said.

The federal government will pay a $127.5 million settlement over the Parkland, Fla. school massacre—after it admitted the FBI didn’t follow up on two tips that could have prevented the massacre.
The legal deal announced Wednesday settles 40 lawsuits tied to the 2018 massacre at Marjory Stoneman Douglas High School, which remains the largest high school shooting in US history.(Snip)In one instance, a YouTuber had told the bureau that Cruz had posted “Im going to be a professional school shooter” on the comment section of one of his videos. Even though the username of the poster was “Nikolas Cruz,” agents at the time said they could not determine

Dr. Anthony Fauci is getting a little nervous.
The White House chief medical advisor, whose handling of the COVID-19 pandemic has drawn either abject endorsement or stinging rebuke depending on whom you ask, expects to face some tough questions come next year. In an interview with The Washington Post, a mouthpiece not known for its hostility to the good doctor, Fauci speculated that he’d likely be in the hot seat if Republicans take Congress in the upcoming midterm elections.“It’s Benghazi hearings all over again,” Fauci told the Post, an odd comment for a supposedly apolitical and neutral medical advisor and chief of the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases

Barack Obama's daughters Sasha and Malia have cemented their status as true Los Angeles celebrities by ticking off another A-lister rite of passage: a grueling hike in the Hollywood heat. The former First Daughters - who both relocated to the West Coast earlier this year - were pictured working up a sweat while enjoying a scenic up-hill walk, just days after they were spotted dining out at an exclusive LA eatery with their mother Michelle. Sasha, 20, and Malia, 23, both put on a sporty display for their fitness-focused outing, with the younger Obama sibling donning a tiny pair of black workout shorts, which she paired with a black T-shirt
Woke Yale law students have been filmed threatening speakers and staff for attending a free speech event which saw a humanist speaker invited to debate a high-profile conservative on First Amendment rights. Police were forced to escort guest speakers from Yale Law School's free speech debate after more than 100 students intimated a conservative panelist and caused a riot in the auditorium by yelling and blocking exits out of the hall.The chaos broke out last week at the start of a panel featuring progressive Monica Miller from the American Humanist Association and conservative Christian Kristen Waggoner of the Alliance Defending Freedom (ADF) nonprofit.

Jussie Smollett is back on the streets again

Just five days after going to jail to begin his 150-day sentence, Jussie Smollett is a free man again. Considering what’s been happening in D.C. to people who, at most, trespassed, the whole Jussie saga has been disgusting and this is one more chapter to irritate or even enrage those who believe in the rule of law. However, much as I hate to say this, the appellate court that released him while his appeal is pending probably made the correct legal decision. (snip) Smollett’s attorneys had argued that he would have completed the jail sentence by the time the appeal process was completed
RINO Ben Crenshaw labeled Americans who don’t want to send their children to war with Russia in Ukraine, Putin apologists. When he did this on FOX News he was called out.
Ben Crenshaw was on FOX and Friends on Thursday. He told the audience how disturbing it was to him that anyone would oppose not going to war against Russia. When Rachel Campos-Duffy said most Americans question US involvement in such a war he lost it.
Liberals in Congress are pressing President Joe Biden to invoke emergency powers to push ahead with Democrats' climate change agenda and to put new restrictions on fossil fuels, even while gasoline remains at its highest per-gallon price on record.
With legislation stalled in Congress, the nearly 100-member Congressional Progressive Caucus released a slate of policy recommendations Thursday for Biden to pursue, calling on him to use executive action to deal with a list of topics his "Build Back Better" agenda sought to address, including the development of more green energy technologies and placement of restrictions on new fossil fuel production.
Disgraced 'Empire' actor Jussie Smollett has been released from jail after just six days behind bars so he can appeal his conviction for faking a hate crime - with his lawyer saying the 39-year-old was refusing food behind bars, and had 'nearly given up'. Smollett did not speak as he left the Cook County Jail, and was flanked by bodyguards as he walked out in a smart black t-shirt and matching pants, before getting into a waiting SUV and being driven off.He was freed after he posts the required $150,000 personal recognizance bond.
Food prices are already skyrocketing. Some — a lot — of this comes from inflation caused by runaway government spending over the past two years. Some is from supply-chain issues. But a new problem is rearing its head, and government officials seem as likely to make it worse as to make it better.
That problem is shortages of food and fertilizer brought about by the Russian invasion of Ukraine and the sanctions enacted by the West in response. Ukraine is a major wheat producer, but war is likely to ensure a poor spring planting and harvest. Russia is also a major grower, but sanctions and war will prevent it from exporting to most
World War Two hero Audie Murphy, former Secretary of State Colin Powell and ex-President Dwight Eisenhower are set to have their names used on US military bases whose titles honor Confederate figures. Murphy, a former US Army soldier, became the most-decorated serviceman of World War Two. Powell was the first black person to serve as Secretary of State, between 2001 and 2005, and died last year. Eisenhower was a hero World War Two commander who later served as president between 1953 and 1961.

Perhaps so, but the auto insurance industry stood to make a lot of extra money on him, and probably the city too with fines and whatnot.
