                                                                            Who are the Critics


No they didn’t land on the moon. No they didn’t orbit the Earth.. But just like the previous Blue Origin launches. They went up, stay in earths upper atmosphere for four minutes and came back down. All thankfully with no casualties. And all were called historic for being performed. The point I’m trying to get to here is. Why all the Hate and criticism for the first All female crew to make the Blue Origin journey? Why are the majority of the criticism we’re hearing coming from other women? The criticism doesn’t seem to fall along political lines. What odd is that many of the complaints about the flight don’t even carry much weight. They range from the over abundance of time and money it took to do. Attacks on the individual crew members of the flight. And even the harm it may have caused our planet.
🚀 Blue Origin Main Engine: BE-4 Fuel: Liquefied Natural Gas (methane) + Liquid Oxygen (LOX) Use: Powers the New Glenn rocket (and ULA's Vulcan Centaur) Thrust: ~550,000 lbf (pound-force) Status: Flight-ready, but not yet used in an orbital launch as of early 2025 Other Engines: BE-3: Hydrogen/LOX engine used in suborbital New Shepard BE-7: Hydrogen/LOX engine under development for Blue Moon lunar lander Focus: Reusability, clean fuels (methane, hydrogen), gradual progress
🚀 SpaceX Main Engine: Raptor Fuel: Liquid Methane + LOX Use: Powers Starship (Super Heavy booster + Starship upper stage) Thrust: ~500,000 lbf (Raptor 2) Status: Actively flying in Starship test flights Other Engines: Merlin: RP-1 (kerosene) + LOX, used on Falcon 9 and Falcon Heavy Reliable and reused regularly Draco & Super Draco: Used for spacecraft control and launch escape (Dragon capsules) Focus: Aggressive innovation, rapid iteration, high launch cadence, full re-usability Jet Engines (747/777) — Impact on Air Quality Fuel: Jet-A (kerosene-based) Main Emissions: CO₂ – greenhouse gas NOₓ – contributes to smog and ozone formation at ground level Particulate matter (PM) – harmful to lungs Un-burned hydrocarbons – air toxins, especially near airports Altitude of Emissions: Mostly troposphere (lower atmosphere) Some emissions near the stratosphere, which affects cloud formation and possibly climate Scale: Global aviation contributes ~2–3% of total CO₂ emissions Heavy impact near populated areas (airports, urban zones)
🚀 Rocket Engines (SpaceX & Blue Origin) — Impact on Air Quality Fuels: SpaceX: Methane + LOX (cleaner than kerosene) Blue Origin: Hydrogen + LOX (produces only water vapor) Older rockets (not these) often used RP-1 (kerosene) or solid fuels, which are dirtier Main Emissions: CO₂ – less per flight than commercial aviation, but intense per launch Water vapor – mostly from hydrogen-fueled engines, can affect upper atmosphere chemistry Aluminum oxide particles, HCl – from solid rockets (not used by SpaceX/Blue Origin) NOₓ – from high combustion temperatures Altitude of Emissions: Rockets inject emissions directly into the upper atmosphere (stratosphere and above) This can affect ozone layer and atmospheric circulation Scale: Far fewer launches than flights, but emissions are localized and intense Growing concern as launches increase
🌍 Visual Comparison: Environmental/Air Quality Impact
The second most complaint from these most wealthy supposedly millionaire critics are that the amount of money used to make the Blue Origin flight happen. Could have been used to serve the greater good of mankind. Basically equating that somehow the cost of this flight could have solved the inflation problem we now find ourselves in. Blue Origins, like SpaceX is a privately funded space program and operation. The participants are either chosen or they pay $200,000 to $500,000 for the privilege for the flight. Either way they most pass a rigor training before they can make the flight. (Data Source-ChatGPT) So my question again is who are these critics. Why now? They didn’t come forward for the all male flights, No criticism of the mixed flight crews. And for the most part, it’s not your average person. Their critics for the most part are other well -off, rich personalities and entertainers like themselves. And again the main complaints is that so much money was used or spent on the short flight. If their intentions were to just voice their displeasure with a member of this historic event.. Why not say so before? I know that with everything going on with our current government administration. The critics have more than enough real problems to complain about.                                                                                                                               Just My Opinion

Trump's Suicide Brigade

   During the 2020 elections and after Trump and his supporters cried continuously for re-counts and election fraud. Any political race or issue that they felt they were losing or had lost. They would cry that there was fraud or corruption on the part of the opponent. It didn’t matter if the opponent was of their party or not. The only thing that mattered was if they supported Trump or not. If the candidate is a democrats, the cry of fraud and corruption would start sometimes even before the election. And if the opposing candidate is also republican. Then the cry would be that they are a RINO (republican in name only) if they disagree at any time with anything that Trump says. So for the 2022 elections and primaries. Trump loyalist have gone after their own with a crazed vengeance. They don’t care if the republican candidate has a great or consistent record of voting and fight for the people of this country. If they voted against or disagreed with Trump on anything, or God forbid that they actually voted for Trumps impeachment. Then former president Trumps suicide brigade is gonna come after them and make them pay for their betrayal. The Trump SB don’t care about the republican party. They don’t care about equal and fair representation. The Trump SB don’t care about the laws of this country if those laws in any way contradict what Trump wants. Too them the laws are only there for Trump loyalist to use to further Trumps goals. But nothing he can do is ever against the law. Even if That means inciting riots, trying to over throw and election or theft and fraud on his part. You have to remember that Donald Trump is GOD to these people. And nothing absolutely nothing he does is a crime in their mind because he is above all the rest of us puny mortals. So Trumps suicide brigade are starting with every member in Congress that voted to impeach Donald Trump. And any member of Congress, The House or The Senate that has ever disagreed with Trump. They are steadfast in making sure these individuals don’t keep their jobs. So the false information attacks against them will be abusive to say the least. Threats of personal harm to them, their families and anyone who supports them are way to common. Remember the TSB don’t care about right or wrong, just that it interferes with what Trump wants. Tax fraud! Inciting an insurrection to overthrow the government! Stealing top secret and classified documents ( that’s call espionage by the way)! Non-payment to States and cites for services not covered by the Secret Service before and after his term in office. Oh Please! How dare you even attempt to ask for repayment for parade cost to local government. To them you should just be grateful that Trump even took notice of you. Even after sworn testimony to a Grand Jury under penalty of imprisonment. Trump and his suicide brigade just plead their fifth amendments rights to say FUCK YOU to the laws, our country and whoever else doesn’t agree with them. His law is the only law as far as they’re concerned. So let it be written, So shall it be done mentality. Without a doubt this is the most dangerous type of group mentality you can have. We’ve seen this before in our history, actually way too often in our democracy this behavior occurs. Because people place a person above all else. And then convince themselves that no matter how wrong the person is. Or how corrupt they turn out to be. They refuse to admitted they were wrong about them. And blame any fault on others. That is how democracies fall, when people start refuse to see the real truth in what’s happening. Instead to keep propping up someones inflated ego as though they are GODS!. What will it take for these people to admit No one is perfect. To admit that they backed someone who’s ultimate goal was to enrich and empower themselves at all cost. Even if it means destroying their lives and careers. When people start ignore the laws of our country. Just to perpetuate them ideas of a single individual. Even with solid evidence that person or persons have all out lied to them. Then this democracy we call The United States of America is all but dead. But that’s how it starts isn't it? First you silence your detractors. And replace them with those who will follow you blindly. After which you start silencing the people themselves, doesn’t matter if they are loyal or not. How may times is history have we seen this? Oh wait, they are trying to erase that part of our history and anything else they decided you don’t need to know.  Trump and his SB's closest rival is Florida governor Mr. Ron DeSantis. Their ideology is not that far apart, and his some supporters are just as aggressive when it comes to holding up DeSantis's line of reasoning. So go back to sleep America, and don’t worry bout them getting rid of people who really are trying to make this country great again for everyone. People who despite political party will stand up for what is right. For people who are willing to say No when it is the right thing to do. Even if it cost them clot and career. People who are willing to stand against party. Even under threats against themselves and their families. Or you can become one of the TS or DB and just high-step your way through life in the world of Trump. For me! I have a soul and a conscious that I ‘m not going to just give up for anyone's ego.





Bias? No HATE! Call it what it is.

PicturePortland man Dylan J . Kesterson
Don’t Make No Sense
Several news sites reported on a case of a Portland Oregon man charged with attacking and punching father and his 5 year old daughter. The attacker Dylan Kesterson was arrested but released under supervision on the same day by a judges court order. He pleaded not guilty to all counts on Tuesday. Kesterson allegedly made comments about the family being of Japanese descent before punching the father multiple times. He is also accused of lunging forward and hammer fisting the man’s daughter on the top of her head once. On July 6, 2022, the Portland Police Bureau announced that Kesterson had a warrant out for his arrest because he failed to show up for his court hearing. He is being charged with second-degree bias crime, harassment, fourth-degree assault, second-degree attempted assault, third-degree attempted assault and two counts of first-degree bias crime. He was re-arrested Wednesday July 06 2022. There are so many things wrong with this story. Why with so many hate crime deaths in this country. Was he allowed to go free before pretrial? Only after his not showing up for trial. Was a warrant for his arrest issued. And by some miracle an out duty cop spots and arrests him. The victim and his family understandably vow not to return to Oregon ever again.

Navy sailor called 'vile, inhuman creature' sentenced to 210 years for rape and assault of infants, toddlers.


Brian Hallenbeck and Taylor Hartz, The Day, New London, Conn.
Wed, June 23, 2021, 9:33 AM·5 min read
Jun. 22—Navy sailor Randall Tilton was sentenced to 210 years in federal prison Tuesday for the sexual abuse of seven infants and toddlers in a case U.S. District Judge Jeffrey Meyer and government prosecutors called the worst of its kind they've ever seen.
Before Meyer sentenced Tilton, parents of several of the victims spoke either by Zoom or in person at the federal courthouse in New Haven, where Tilton sat, dressed in prison garb, wearing a face mask.
One mother described him as "a vile, inhuman creature."
"I don't wish you death, but a long life full of pain," another said.
A father who addressed the court struggled to deliver a profanity-laced condemnation of Tilton.
"I beg of you, your Honor, don't ever let him out," a mother of one of the victims said. "He belongs in the general (prison) population, and I understand what that would mean for him and I don't care."
Tilton delivered a statement in which he apologized to the victims.
"It's not just the production of child pornography, the video, images, for your own satisfaction, which is not even a charge in this case," Meyer told Tilton before pronouncing sentence. "What really sets it apart is the scores and scores of hands-on acts of sexual abuse of seven children — much worse than hands on — that goes on for year after year. ... And for some of these children, it's rape, there's no other word for it — rapes of children who knew you and who you knew could not complain."
In arguing for a 30-year sentence, Moira Buckley, the federal public defender representing Tilton, said, "We're asking for daylight at the end of the sentencing tunnel. ... His life is going to be one long prison term whether he's in prison or out."
Meyer told Tilton he was troubled by his choice of victims — "children under your complete whim and control" — and was not persuaded to be lenient by Tilton's military service or by the fact he has not been convicted of other crimes. The judge said he was not confident that Tilton would be rehabilitated in prison and was concerned that if Tilton were released in his 50s, he could still inflict harm.
"I also think about the peace of mind of the victims," Meyer said. "I heard them loud and clear."
Meyer adopted prosecutors' recommendation that Tilton serve his sentence at Federal Medical Center, Devens, a federal prison in eastern Massachusetts for male inmates requiring specialized or long-term medical or mental health care.
The sentence includes an order that Tilton pay more than $900,000 in restitution to his victims.
Tilton, a New Hampshire native who was stationed at the Naval Submarine Base in Groton aboard the USS South Dakota as a machinists mate 1st class, waived his right to be indicted and pleaded guilty in December to child pornography offenses related to his sexual abuse of two infants as young as 4 months old and five toddlers, most of whom were about 3 years old when Tilton's abuse of them began.
The criminal activity spanned three states — California, New Hampshire and Connecticut — over the course of eight years.
Tilton violently raped the two infants and published videos he made of his abuse to the dark web. He took pornographic photos of a Navy comrade's 4-year-old daughter at a BBQ and raped and recorded videos of the 7-year-old daughter of a local woman he met on a dating app.
Tilton told investigators he abused his first infant victim more than 300 times. His rapes became increasingly violent, prosecutors said, and a video of his rape was viewed more than 100,000 times on the dark web. In forums on the dark web, Tilton spoke publicly about how much he enjoyed what he did.
"While it is hard to imagine what would lead a person to sexually abuse any child, it is inconceivable that a person could be so inherently evil as to prey upon infants. Randall Tilton, however, is the personification of that very evil," Assistant U.S. Attorney Nancy V. Gifford wrote in a 25-page sentencing memo filed with the court this month.
"It is difficult to overstate — or even to adequately state — the horrifying nature of Tilton's crimes," Gifford wrote in the memo, which at one point describes Tilton's crimes as "among the most horrific seen in this district."
In imposing the maximum, 210-year penalty — 30 years for each of seven counts — Meyer adopted the prosecutors' sentencing recommendation. In seeking a 30-year sentence, Tilton and his attorneys had submitted a letter Tilton wrote to the judge in which Tilton calls his actions "selfish, destructive, unnatural and wrong."
Prosecutors said that in another letter Tilton wrote from prison to someone he considers his grandfather, Tilton described his abuse — and how much he enjoyed it — in great detail.
"Tilton's own words, captured in comments he made in forums on the dark web and chilling letters sent from prison, demonstrate that he reveled in the abuse and brutality he inflicted," Gifford wrote.
Meyer referred to Tilton's letter to the grandfather figure as "that remarkable letter you wrote."
Tilton confessed to Groton Town Police that he had assaulted his first victim when she was 6 months old, and investigators obtained 35 videos and 66 images of that abuse over the course of several years. The abuse only ended when Tilton was arrested, prosecutors said.
Investigators found more than 8,000 videos and photos of infants and toddlers being sexually abused in Tilton's possession.

On-duty police officer sexually assaulted by gas station manager, Georgia cops say

The manager of a Georgia gas station is accused of sexually assaulting a police officer who was on duty and in uniform.
According to the Hogansville Police Department, Prilesh Navinchandra Thakkar “attempted to forcefully commit an indecent act on an on duty female police officer.”
The officer was conducting a business check on May 11 at the Hop In service station along state Highway 54 when the 300-pound manager grabbed her and pulled her behind the counter, WAGA reported.
She was able to get away from Thakkar and immediately reported what happened.
Police believe that “due to the boldness” of Thakkar’s attack, it’s not the first time he’s done something like it.
“To have attempted this act on a uniformed police officer ... there may be other victims of similar attacks,” police said.
Police are asking any victims to come forward to investigators and contact detective Marcus Rakestraw with the Hogansville Police Department at 706-637-6648.
The Troup County Sheriff’s Department assisted HPD in the investigation, and handled initial interviews in the case, according to a release. Thakkar was arrested the day of the attack and booked into the Troup County Jail.
He has been charged with sexual battery, and obstruction.

Yes, Donald Trump is in very *real* legal jeopardy
Analysis by Chris Cillizza, CNN Editor-at-large



Updated 11:35 AM ET, Mon February 22, 2021

(CNN)The Supreme Court's rejection of Donald Trump's attempts to keep his tax returns out of the hands of Manhattan District Attorney Cyrus Vance is a potent reminder of this fact: The former President is in real legal jeopardy -- on a number of fronts.


In the narrowest aperture what the court's ruling means is that Vance -- and the grand jury he has empaneled to look into hush money payments made in the run-up to the 2016 election to two women alleging affairs with Trump -- will get a look at Trump's most carefully guarded secret: His financial documents.
Which is a blow for Trump -- especially given a) how hard he fought the release of these documents, which include years of tax returns, to Vance and b) what we already know about Trump's involvement in the hush money scheme.
In federal search warrant documents released in July 2019, Trump is named for his involvement in the hush money payments. As CNN's Kara Scannell and Marshall Cohen wrote at the time:"The documents are the first time that the US authorities have identified Trump by name and allege his involvement at key steps in the campaign finance scheme. Authorities had previously referred to Trump in court filings as 'Individual 1,' the person who directed [Michael] Cohen to make the payments. Trump has publicly denied making the payments. Cohen pleaded guilty to two campaign finance crimes, among others, and is serving a three year prison sentence."


Cohen, who served as Trump's personal lawyer and fixer for years before turning on him, testified under oath in front of Congress in February 2019 that Trump had personally instructed him to pay Stormy Daniels and Karen McDougal for their silence and that there was "no doubt in his mind" that the candidate knew what he was doing.
We know very few details -- beyond that he is looking into the hush money payments -- about Vance's investigation. "The work continues," Vance tweeted cryptically after the Supreme Court announces its decision Monday on Trump's tax returns.
But what we do know is that the Manhattan District Attorney investigation is far from the only legal matter in which Trump currently finds himself entangled. Consider:
1. The New York attorney general's office is looking into how the Trump organization valued its assets.
2. Defamation lawsuits from E. Jean Carroll and Summer Zervos.
3. A fraud lawsuit filed by Trump niece Mary Trump.
4. A possible charge of incitement by the DC attorney general for Trump's role in the January 6 riot at the US Capitol.
5. Two investigations into Trump's attempts to pressure Georgia elected officials to overturn the state's election results.
And what we also know is that the freedom from prosecution afforded to a sitting president doesn't hold for a former president. Nor is dealing with all of these various lawsuits cheap. Nor does Trump have unlimited resources at his disposal. (In fact, his financial concerns may be even more pressing than his legal ones.)
Trump, of course, is also not unfamiliar with drawn-out court fights. He's often bragged about his ability to use the legal system to his advantage, in fact.
"Does anyone know more about litigation than Trump?" Trump said of himself on the campaign trail in 2016. "I'm like a Ph.D. in litigation."
The question going forward, however, is whether Trump's old legal tactics -- delay, delay, delay and hope the other side loses interest or runs out of money -- will work against the considerable number of foes aligned against him.
After all, Trump's no longer just some rich guy. He's the former president of the United States. Which puts a MUCH larger legal target on his back.

Woman Swallowed By Python As She Checked On Her Cornfield.

A woman in Indonesia was swallowed whole by a python as she checked on her cornfields last week. According to The Washington Post, citing the Jakarta Post, the woman's name was Wa Tiba and lived on Muna Island off the coast of Sulawesi. She left her home Thursday night to visit her cornfield about a half mile from her home. 
Reticulated pythons are common in the area, but it was actually wild boars that Wa had been worried about initially because they'd be destroying her crops, according to the Jakarta Post's report.
 When Wa didn't return, her sister went out to find her and found Wa's footprints, flashlight, slippers, and machete. On Friday, 100 villagers from Persiapan Lawela searched the area and found a 23 foot-long snake with a very swollen belly. The villagers killed the snake, cut it open, and found Wa inside intact. She probably didn't die inside the snake: A reticulated python secures its prey with a bite, then wraps its body around the victim, squeezing down until the victim cannot breathe, before consuming, according to the Associated Press.
Pythons are the longest snake in the world and usually only eat smaller mammals. However, a similar incident happened last year to a farmer from the nearby village of Salubiro on Sulawesi Island, according to The Washington Post.

28 years' jail, maximum caning for man who raped daughter for 7.5 years
Wan Ting Koh
·Senior Reporter
Mon, April 26, 2021, 3:01 AM

SINGAPORE — A man who raped his daughter for about seven-and-a-half years was jailed for 28 years and sentenced to 24 strokes of the cane on Monday (26 April).  The 44-year-old Singapore permanent resident had also molested his daughter's best friend when he came by to hang out with her.  By his own count, the man had raped his daughter, now 13, between 10 and 20 times, and forced her to perform oral sex on him even more times. Both man and daughter cannot be named to protect the victim's identity.  Sentencing the man from the European Union, Justice Mavis Chionh noted four aggravating factors to his offense: the vulnerability of the young victim, the man's abuse of his position of authority and trust, the premeditation and grooming of the victim, and that the sex acts were unprotected.  "I should add that the tenderness of the victim’s years and the pathos of her vulnerability are obvious from the (statement of facts). At the start ...she was a young girl afraid of showering alone. At the tail end, she was by all accounts still a young girl afraid to return to her room to sleep because she found the sounds of her room fan weird. "The greatest tragedy in this case is that she (was) robbed of her childhood innocence by her own father." She noted that the prosecution told the court that even today, the daughter continues to write letters to her father to tell him that she loves him.  "This is the other great tragedy in this case that the victim (was) preyed upon by the person meant to protect her," she added .  As for the mitigation, Justice Chionh took into account the man's plea of guilt, which spared the victim the trauma of having to testify in court. She did not assign mitigating weight to the man being diagnosed with pedophilic disorder or that he had no criminal history, given the lengthy period he had been abusing his daughter. His offenses were committed from 2011 to 2019. The man earlier pleaded guilty to three charges of statutory rape of his daughter when she was between nine and 11 years old. Another 19 charges of a similar nature, such as sexually assaulting his daughter, showing her pornography and molesting her friend, were taken into consideration for sentencing. His wife has since divorced him.  The man worked as a product manager in Singapore and stayed in a condominium with his wife, their daughter and her baby brother. The couple, who were married overseas, moved to Singapore in 2008. The man first sexually assaulted his daughter when she was between three and seven years old. After watching a television programme about people drowning while swimming, the girl became afraid of showering alone and took a shower with her father. At that point, the man developed a “sexual desire” to touch the girl. He realised then that he was a pedophile and there was “no turning back”. He continued abusing her for the next seven-and-a-half years, with the sexual assaults increasing in frequency after the family moved houses. He knew that the girl did not like the incidents as she would keep her face turned to the side when they happened, to avoid looking at him. He would go into the girl’s bedroom or ask her to enter his bedroom, before locking the door and raping or sexually assaulting her. When the girl expressed reluctance, he would say it would only take a few minutes. The girl often felt she could not protest further as the man was her father, whom she should listen to. At times, the man would show her pornographic material from his phone or laptop. One of these was a child having sex with her father. He also molested his daughter’s best friend when the girl went over to play and watch movies. This girl stayed in the same condominium, and her parents regarded the man and his wife as “close friends”. He kissed this girl on the lips and told her to keep it a secret. Once, as the man, his daughter and her best friend watched a movie in the master bedroom, the man molested both girls at the same time while lying between them. Eventually, this girl stopped going to the daughter’s house. The police eventually learned of the sexual assault after the second victim made a police report about the man’s inappropriate behavior. In June 2019, as the girl's best friend was preparing to undergo her first communion in her home country, she was asked to confess her sins and revealed the man's offenses. She made a police report upon returning to Singapore. The man was then arrested.  When settling the man's affairs, his wife came across child erotica stories in his email inbox. The man had downloaded and sent these to himself.

A North Carolina city council fired a man for 'white privilege and entitlement' after he refused to address a Black woman by her professional title

The city council in Greensboro, North Carolina, fired a volunteer who worked as the city's zoning commissioner after he repeatedly refused a Black woman's calls to address her by her professional title during a Zoom meeting. 

The council in a unanimous vote on Tuesday decided to remove Tony Collins, a construction contractor, from the zoning commission after he during a virtual meeting refused to address Carrie Rosario, a UNC-Greensboro professor with a doctorate in public health, as "Dr. Rosario," The Greensboro News & Record reported.


 According to the report, during an April 19 meeting, Collins, who is white, entered a tense exchange with Rosario over the way he addressed her during the virtual meeting. 
According to the report, the interaction occurred toward the end of the meeting when Rosario raised concerns about a proposed development project near her home. Collins told her that the discussion was off-topic and referred to her as "Mrs. Rosario." 
"It's Dr. Rosario, thank you, sir," Rosario said.
"If Mrs. Rosario has something," Collins responded.
"Dr. Rosario," she repeated.
"Well, you know, I'm sorry," Collins said. "Your name says on here 'Carrie Rosario.' Hey Carrie."
"It's Dr. Rosario," Rosario repeated. "I wouldn't call you Tony, so please, sir, call me as I would like to be called."
Collins dismissed Rosario, and said it "didn't matter." 
"It matters to me," she said. "And out of respect, I would like you to call me by the name that I'm asking you to call me by."
But Collins continued to push back.

Rosario told McClatchy News that she had previously corrected another council member during the call, who apologized and corrected himself. She said she viewed Collins' repeated refusal to call by her title "a personal attack of disrespect."
In the council meeting Tuesday, Councilwoman Sharon Hightower said that Collins was exhibiting "white privilege and entitlement" during the exchange, according to the Rhino Times. Hightower made the motion at the Tuesday meeting to remove Collins from his position on the zoning commission.
"It is not going to be tolerated," she told McClatchy News. "As a Black female, I am not going to see another Black female treated in this manner."
The Rhino Times reported that Collins apologized Thursday in an email to the members of the Greensboro City Council.
"I understand from published reports that you voted Tuesday evening to remove me from the Greensboro Zoning Commission because of my behavior at the Zoning Commission meeting Monday evening," Collins wrote. "I agree with you that my exchange with Dr. Rosario was out of line and accept your judgment to remove me from the commission. I have telephoned Dr. Rosario and left a message apologizing for my behavior." 
"There is no good excuse for my interaction with Dr. Rosario so I will not try to offer one," he added. "Citizens deserve better." 



Florida family accused of selling thousands of bottles of bleach marketed as Covid cure

A Florida man and his three sons were accused in federal court of selling tens of thousands of bottles of bleach that were marketed as a "miracle cure" for the coronavirus and other illnesses, authorities said.

The man, Mark Grenon, and his sons, Jonathan, Jordan and Joseph Grenon, were accused of fraud and violating civil court orders instructing them to stop selling the fake cure, which they promoted as "Miracle Mineral Solution," or MMS, according to documents filed Friday in Florida's southern district.
The Food and Drug Administration has warned people not to ingest the potentially deadly chlorine dioxide solution, which is typically used for industrial water treatment.
Court documents filed in the civil case allege that on a podcast released last year, co-host Mark Grenon referred to the 2nd Amendment and threatened a federal judge over a court order halting the sale of MMS, saying she was committing "treason."
"Do they want a Waco?" he is alleged to have said, referring to the 1993 siege in Texas that left 76 people dead.
According to court documents, the family manufactured the solution in a backyard shed in Bradenton, about 45 miles south of Tampa. Through what the documents describe as an "avowedly" nonreligious church called Genesis II Church of Health and Healing, the solution was marketed and sold as a cure-all for cancer, autism, diabetes and other disorders and diseases, according to the documents.
The documents say the family had a massive jump in revenue — from an average of $32,000 a month to $123,000 — after they began marketing the solution as a Covid-19 cure in March 2020.
The family has sold more than 28,000 bottles, earning more than $1 million, the documents say.

During a raid on the Bradenton property, authorities discovered dozens of chemical drums, 10,000 pounds of sodium nitrate and thousands of bottles of the solution, the U.S. attorney's office for southern Florida said in a news release.
Two of the sons — Jonathan and Jordan Grenon — were arrested and are scheduled to be arraigned Monday, the release says.
Mark and Joseph Grenon are in Colombia, the release says. It doesn't provide additional details about their location, and a spokeswoman didn't immediately respond to a request for comment.
It isn't clear whether the family has attorneys. Court records don't list one, and a message sent to Genesis seeking comment wasn't immediately returned.

Woman kills man and his dog in hit-and-run while fleeing from another hit-and-run only moments before: Police

A woman has been arrested after allegedly running over and killing a man and his dog while they were out for a walk in a hit-and-run incident while fleeing at a high speed from another hit-and-run incident she had reportedly committed only moments earlier.
The incident occurred on the evening of Sunday, April 25, shortly before 8 p.m. in Sandy Springs, Georgia -- a suburb north of Atlanta -- when police responded to a hit-and-run incident involving a pedestrian, later named as 25-year-old Michael Farmer of Sandy Springs and his dog, a Catahoula named Bruce.

An initial police investigation found that Farmer and his dog were walking on Hammond Drive near Glenridge Drive in Sandy Springs when a white sedan traveling eastbound at a high rate of speed struck the victim and fled the scene, according to a statement from the Sandy Springs Police Department.
Farmer and his dog both died in the accident as a result of the injuries suffered in the collision.
However, during the course of the investigation, Sandy Springs Police Traffic Investigators found that the exact same vehicle had been involved in another hit-and-run incident with a vehicle only minutes before striking Farmer and his dog.



“Sandy Springs Police Traffic Investigators learned that minutes prior to this deadly incident, the same hit-and-run vehicle had been involved in an additional hit-and-run crash with another vehicle while in the area of Roswell Road and I-285,” Sandy Springs Police Department said in a statement on social media. “The suspect was fleeing the first incident at a high-rate of speed when it struck the pedestrian and his dog; causing fatal injuries to both.”
Through their investigation, Sandy Springs Police Department was able to identify the vehicle as a 2020 white Chevy Malibu with Florida tags and, with the help of the Coweta County Sheriff’s Office, they were able to find the vehicle and the owner, 38-year-old Dominque Houston of Newnan, Georgia -- about 50 miles south of Sandy Springs -- before placing her under arrest.

Houston was then taken into custody, interviewed by authorities and subsequently charged with vehicular homicide in the first degree, reckless driving, two counts of hit and run, and one count of following too closely.
Houston has now been booked into the Fulton County Jail on the above charges and is awaiting prosecution.

A mother and father were arrested in north Texas on Tuesday after four young children were found living in squalor in a barn without food or water, authorities said. Deputies from the Wise County Sheriff's Office were dispatched to a rural property near Newark, Texas, after receiving a domestic disturbance call on Tuesday morning around 7:20 a.m. local time. The deputies met with two adults on the premises, Andrew Fabila and Paige Harkings, both 24, and noticed "numerous lacerations" on Fabila's face, according to a press release from the sheriff's office.

While talking with the two adults, deputies heard children inside the barn house. They went inside to find a 5-year-old, a 4-year-old, a 3-year-old and a 1-year-old. The two youngest children were mostly unclothed and lying on a blanket in the barn, while the two eldest were locked inside a dog kennel, according to the sheriff's office.
The responding deputies described the children as malnourished and covered in feces, Chief Deputy Craig Johnson told ABC News.
There was food in the barn, but it was locked away and inaccessible to the children. Deputies gave food and water to the children, who were examined on scene by medics and then transported to Cook Children’s Medical Center in Fort Worth for further examination, according to the sheriff's office.

Harkings, who is the biological mother of all four children, was arrested on four counts of child endangerment and one count of aggravated assault. Fabila, who is the biological father of only one of the children, was taken to Wise Regional Health System in Decatur where he was treated and released, then subsequently booked into the Wise County Jail on four counts of child endangerment, according to the sheriff's office.
The mother and father were arraigned in court Wednesday. A judge set Fabila's bond at $60,000 and Harkings' bond at $75,000, according to the sheriff's office.
