DOJ charges Oath Keepers founder, 10 others with seditious conspiracy related to Jan. 6 riot
The move marks the first set of charges echoing claims of an insurrection
On Jan. 6, 2021, after then-President Trump had repeatedly claimed that the 2020 election had been stolen from him, thousands of his supporters left his rally at Freedom Plaza near the White House and headed toward the Capitol. Lawmakers evacuated the complex and temporarily suspended the certification of the Electoral College results as rioters broke through police lines and entered the building.
These charges will never stick. Rhodes didn’t have an army, there was no sedition or insurrection, this was a protest allowed under the Declaration of Independence.
The Court ruled that OSHA lacked the authority to impose such a mandate because the law that created OSHA “empowers the Secretary to set workplace safety standards, not broad public health measures.”
“Although COVID-19 is a risk that occurs in many workplaces, it is not an occupational hazard in most,” the Court ruled. “COVID–19 can and does spread at home, in schools, during sporting events, and everywhere else that people gather. That kind of universal risk is no different from the day-to-day dangers that all face from crime, air pollution, or any number of communicable diseases.”
For these reasons, the OSHA mandate “would significantly expand” the agency’s authority beyond the limits Congress set, the Court ruled.
Inflation surged 7% from one year ago.Even a blind man knew that was going to happen. Topping off the old buggy cost an extra $30; $1500 on a yearly basis for the privilege of driving to work. But the laundry list of consumer goods is bubbling up – automobiles for example, prices are on the runway, full electric ahead. This doesn’t bother Joe, the Inflation Bubblehead, because he doesn’t give a fat “f.ck”.
Inflation is at work on many fronts, for example illegal immigrants puncturing our borders with impunity. Joe is filling their pockets with your money.No need for them to get Vaxed though.Wasn’t it yesterday when an illegal was captured with BUSH MEAT.
No, no , no, not George W. Bush, but the kind that comes out of the African bush. What other diseases are these illegals carrying? This stuff comes from wild animals including Africa and may pose communicable disease risk. Bushmeat comes from a variety of wild animals, including bats, nonhuman primates, cane rats (grasscutters) and antelope. Come to think of it, this fits in very well as a description of the TYPICAL DEMOCRAT; A DISEASED WILD ANIMAL.
But keep your heads up, be careful, all is not completely bad on the Western Front. We hear that Sinema and Manchinsay, NYET to the Biden-Pelosi initiative on BBB plus the voting rights bill. Hats off to them.
A Florida school has a policy against teaching critical race theory, arguing that such curriculum is the result of a “controlled” message from the media.
“As a school, we do not subscribe to or promote Critical Race Theory, Gender Fluidity, or the mainstream narrative surrounding Covid, all hot topics that many schools are now choosing to teach as factual rather than as the theories they are,” reads a section of the website for the Centner Academy, a private school in Miami, Florida.
Chilling video shows inside the Bronx apartment building where a fire killed 17.
The dad in the Bronx apartment where Sunday’s deadly blaze began acknowledged to The Post on Monday that he apparently pushed the front door back so far trying to save his daughter that it got stuck.
Stricken Mamadou Wague, 47, said he didn’t even realize the door was left open until he was told about it by fire officials later.
“When you push the door all the way to the edge, it didn’t close by itself,” said Wague, who was in the apartment with his wife and eight kids when the fire started.
Authorities said earlier Monday that the apartment door was supposed to be self-closing but may have “malfunctioned,’’ sending smoke soaring through the 19-story structure and killing at least 17 people.

“It’s very sad. I don’t even remember the door staying open because all I could think about was getting everybody out,” the dad said.

“I actually thought later that the door had shut, but the fire department people told me it had stayed open.
“I feel very, very sorry for the people who died,” he said. “I’m praying for them. I’m praying for everybody.”
Wague, a native of The Gambia, said he was asleep shortly before 11 a.m. Sunday when his children’s screams woke him up after their electric space heater apparently sparked the blaze.

“I heard my kids screaming, ‘Fire! Fire!’ in their room,” he said. “I just got up and ran back there. I told them, ‘Everybody get out!’ And everybody got out.
“When we were downstairs, I was told my daughter Nafisha was still in her bed, so I ran back up. There was fire everywhere, on the mattress, on my daughter. She had burns on her right side.
“When there’s so much smoke and fire, all you can think is, ‘If I don’t get out of here, I will die,’ ” he said.
“I went back for my daughter,” the dad said. “I could only think about getting her out, getting her safe. I burned my face to get her out, and I didn’t even feel it until much later.”
He said his daughter and wife remained in the hospital Monday.

Wague said he agrees with Mayor Eric Adams, who urged residents in similar situations to close doors behind them to contain the flames and smoke.
“I agree exactly with what the mayor said,” the father said. “Close the door. If there’s a fire, close the door so the smoke doesn’t get out.”
The open apartment door sent smoke through the 19-story apartment, killing at least 17 people.REUTERS
We mourned a true Gentleman this past week as Sidney Poitier entered the gates of heaven.Many of today’s stars will not pass through those gates.But Mr. Poitier was more than a gentleman, he was a righteous human being. He was a credit to the Human Race. Hope you all agree.
Party like there is no tomorrow can bring unexpected consequences. In todays trans environment being cognizant of risk is a given. But those who like to dish it out sometimes fail to take their own advice. So the old saying “what goes around comes around.”However, AOC is too young to have heard it.
