Homicide Investigation Underway In Worcester Co.

Posted: 12 Sep 2016 09:36 PM PDT


(Pocomoke, MD) – Maryland State Police homicide investigators are investigating an apparent double murder suicide of three found dead in a Worcester County home early this morning.

The victims are identified as Marvin Wilmer. Purnell, 78, and Karen E. Purnell, 53, of the 2200-block of Groton Road, Pocomoke, MD. Both of the victims' bodies will be transported to the Office of the Chief Medical Examiner in Baltimore for an autopsy. Investigators anticipate the autopsy will verify the cause and manner of death.

The suspect is identified as Marvin Desmond Purnell, 46, of the 2200-block of Groton Road, Pocomoke, MD. He was pronounced deceased at the scene.

Shortly after 10:30 a.m. today, deputies from the Worcester Sherriff's Department responded to a call to the Purnell residence to check on the welfare of Karen. Karen's friend had not heard from her for some time and physically responded to the Purnell residence. Karen's friend contacted the Worcester Sherriff's Department after receiving no answer and smelling a very strong disturbing odor coming from the residence.

When deputies arrived at the home, they found it to be secure from the outside, with no signs of forced entry. Deputies attempted to make contact with someone inside the residence. As deputies continued attempts to make contact they heard the voice of a male. Deputies asked the male to open the door and the male failed to comply with commands to open the door.

Deputies were able to retrieve a key to the Purnell residence and gained access. Deputies found two decomposing bodies, later identified as Marvin Wilmer. and Karen, lying on the kitchen floor and a third body in the hallway opposite the kitchen, later identified as Marvin Desmond. After observing the three bodies, deputies exited the home for safety and to setup a perimeter.

Deputies attempted to contact Marvin Desmond by cell phone and loud speaker. The efforts continued for approximately one hour. Deputies deployed a CS gas canister through a window located on the west end of the residence in an attempt to force any occupant out of the residence. As a result of the CS canister being deployed a fire ignited in the residence. The Pocomoke Fire Department responded to the scene to extinguish the fire.

Deputies and fire fighters entered the residence and extricated the body of Marvin Desmond. A rifle was located beneath his body. Examination of Marvin Desmond revealed what appeared to be single gunshot wound. The Maryland State Police Homicide Unit was requested to respond and take the lead on this investigation. Additional assistance is being provided by State Police Criminal Enforcement Division investigators and the Worcester County Sheriff's Office.

Investigators have been interviewing witnesses and residents in the area throughout the day. Crime scene evidence has been transported to the State Police Forensic Sciences Division crime laboratory for analysis. State Police crime scene technicians processed the scene. This investigation continues.

Justice Dept Releases New Disturbing Details on San Bernardino Attack

Posted: 12 Sep 2016 08:30 PM PDT

New heartbreaking and disturbing details have been revealed about the San Bernardino terror, in a new report released by the Justice Department and the Police Foundation.

On the morning of December 2, 2015, at a training session and holiday party for San Bernardino county health workers, Syed Rizwan Farook, 28, and his wife Tashfeen Malik, 29, opened fire on the unsuspecting workers, shooting over 100 rounds in two to three minutes. The pair killed 14 people and wounded 22, leaving carnage that resembled a war zone.

The new report released Friday, September 9, titled "Bringing Calm to Chaos," reviews the police response to the attacks, provides new details, as well as lessons on how law enforcement can respond to future attacks.

It describes heros who tried to stop the attack, and the carnage police found when they entered, including dying victims pleading for their lives.

Farook is described as a health inspector at the department who was a diligent worker and tech-savvy with computer problems – but his colleagues thought he become "more stoic" after he returned from Saudi Arabia with his new bride, Malik, originally from Pakistan.

Italy's Supreme Court rules public masturbation not a crime

Posted: 12 Sep 2016 07:30 PM PDT


Italy's highest court has ruled that masturbation in public is not a crime, as long as it is not conducted in the presence of minors.
 
The decision came down from the Italian Supreme Court -- La Corte di Cassazione -- in the case of a 69-year-old man, identified only as "PL," who was caught masturbating in Catania, a city on Sicily's east coast.

The man was convicted in May 2015 after he performed the act in front of students on the University of Catania campus, according to documents filed with Supreme Court. The man was sentenced to three months in prison and ordered to pay a fine of €3,200 (around $3,600).

However, the defendant's lawyer appealed the case to the country's highest court, which ruled on the side of the accused in June but only just made its decision public. Judges ruled that public masturbation out of the presence of minors is no longer deemed criminal conduct due to a change in the law last year, which decriminalized the act.

In the Times analysis, half of the increase came from just seven cities — Baltimore, Chicago, Cleveland, Houston, Milwaukee, Nashville and Washington.

Refunds issued to Maryland taxpayers total nearly $2.4 billion

ANNAPOLIS, Md. –Comptroller Peter Franchot announced today that his agency has processed more than 3 million returns for the 2015 tax year, including 474,075 paper returns and 2,527,077 electronically-filed returns. The total amount of refunds issued is nearly $2.4 billion.

Trump Offers Tough Talk on Iran, Hammers Hillary Before Massive Florida Crowd

Posted: 12 Sep 2016 05:00 PM PDT

PENSACOLA, FL – On Friday, Republican presidential nominee Donald Trump flexed his political muscle by drawing one of his largest crowds since securing his party's nomination in the pivotal battleground state of Florida.

In what has traditionally been a very Republican-voting region of the state, Trump backed up his January capacity appearance with another strong showing. It was evident early on, as thousands lined up to get into the Pensacola Bay Center three hours before the rally began to see the presidential hopeful.

Trump hammered the usual planks of his campaign stump speech – trade, national defense, immigration, and the flaws of Democratic presidential nominee Hillary Clinton.

He drew perhaps his biggest applause when he told the crowd what he would do to Iranian boats that threatened U.S. ships.

"With Iran, when they circle our beautiful destroyers with their little boats and they make gestures at our people that they shouldn't be allowed to make, they will be shot out of the water," he proclaimed.

Wisconsin Gov. Scott Walker met with protesters outside Maryland GOP fundraiser

Posted: 12 Sep 2016 04:30 PM PDT

Wisconsin Governor Scott Walker's appearance Friday at the Maryland Republican Party's biggest fundraiser of the year was met with protests courtesy of dozens of pro-union demonstrators who rallied outside while the former candidate for president addressed attendees of the annual Red, White and Blue Dinner in Glen Burnie.

More than 50 protesters held signs and led anti-Walker chants outside Friday's GOP fundraiser, the Annapolis Capital reported — a figure that exceeded the total number of local lawmakers from Anne Arundel County in attendance to hear the Wisconsin governor speak, according to the newspaper.

Five years after he spurred protests in the Wisconsin capital by eliminating collective-bargaining rights for most state employees, Mr. Walker remains a target of pro-union activists as evidence by Friday's protest.

"He doesn't care about unions," Bernard Johnson, a member of the American Federation of State, County and Municipal Employees, told the Capital. "He wants to take our collective bargaining rights away."

DHS whistleblower: Muslims waging 'settlement jihad' on U.S.

Posted: 12 Sep 2016 03:30 PM PDT

WASHINGTON – Muslims from around the world are coming to America to wage "settlement jihad" and implement Shariah law, a Department of Homeland security whistleblower warns.

The eye-opening observations were made by former Department of Homeland Security officer Philip Haney at the ACT for America 2016 Conference Tuesday.

Haney warned that most Muslims do not migrate to America with the intention of assimilating into American culture.

"The observant Muslim base is the reason for civilizational and/or settlement jihad," he said. "That is why they are immigrating to America, to come and coalesce into one solid unit with the intention – and it is intentional – to implement Shariah law, which according to Islamic theology is the grace and gift to mankind."

Report: Clinton Charities Ignore Laws Requiring IDs of Foreign Donors

Posted: 12 Sep 2016 03:00 PM PDT

The Clinton Foundation and the Clinton Health Access Initiative have ignored New York laws requiring them to disclose the names of foreign donors, and the state attorney general has refused to use his power to force them to do so, according to a Scripps News investigation.

Democratic Attorney General Eric Schneiderman is a Clinton donor and a member of presidential nominee Hillary Clinton's campaign "leadership council" in New York.

Scheiderman donated the maximum $2,700 to Hillary Clinton's campaign this cycle.

The Scripps report comes just as Clinton is attacking her Republican rival Donald Trump's own charity's gift of $25,000 to a political group affiliated with Florida Attorney General Pam Bondi. Bondi at the time was considering an investigation into Trump University, but ended up not doing so.

Families sue feds, Minnesota school district for violating student privacy

Posted: 12 Sep 2016 02:30 PM PDT


MINNEAPOLIS – Alliance Defending Freedom attorneys representing a group of students and parents filed suit Wednesday against the U.S. Department of Education, the U.S. Department of Justice, and Minnesota's Virginia Public Schools for disregarding student privacy and safety. The school district is located just over 60 miles north of Duluth.

The district opened its schools' locker rooms, showers, and restrooms to the opposite sex after the U.S. departments of Education and Justice threatened removing federal education funding throughlegally baseless directives it issued to public schools in May. Concerned students and parents then formed the group Privacy Matters to challenge the guidelines and the school district's policy. Young female students, initially unaware that the district was allowing biologically male students to use the girls' locker room, were shocked and alarmed when a male student began using the locker room and have now have no assurance that they may use girls-only facilities without a male entering the once-private locker rooms and restrooms.

"School policies should promote the rights and safety of every student, but that's not what Virginia Public Schools is doing—and it's certainly not what the departments of Education and Justice are doing," said ADF Senior Counsel Gary McCaleb. "No child should be forced into an intimate setting, like a locker room, with someone of the opposite sex. Telling girls that their privacy and modesty don't merit a private and secure changing area is an attack on women. The school district should rescind its privacy-violating policies, and the court should order the DOE and DOJ to stop bullying school districts with falsehoods about what federal law requires."

Clinton expresses regret for saying 'half' of Trump supporters are 'deplorables'

Posted: 12 Sep 2016 02:00 PM PDT

New York (CNN) Hillary Clinton expressed "regret" Saturday for comments in which she said "half" of Donald Trump's supporters are "deplorables," meaning people who are racist, sexist, homophobic or xenophobic.

"Last night I was 'grossly generalistic,' and that's never a good idea. I regret saying 'half' -- that was wrong," Clinton said in a statement in which she also vowed to call out "bigotry" in Trump's campaign.

The Democratic presidential nominee sparked an uproar late Friday when she described Trump's supporters at a fundraiser.

"To just be grossly generalistic, you can put half of Trump supporters into what I call the basket of deplorables," Clinton said. 

"Right? Racist, sexist, homophobic, xenophobic, Islamaphobic, you name it."

Salisbury Theatre Experience Ruined By Unruly Teens

Posted: 12 Sep 2016 01:29 PM PDT

Mark S. Thompson

I hope everyone shares my post until it reaches those who need to hear it. I have never been as embarrassed as I was last night by a group of middle school youth from Wicomico and Worcester counties. I rarely go to the movies because of the high cost to watch this stuff, but last night I felt like doing something different and go see "Sully", something that didn't have sex, violence and foul language on big screen, But as I was leaving around 9:30pm, there was more foul language than I wanted to see by these young children. At least 15 of our children are cursing at the attendants from the Regal Cinema staff and the Wicomico County Sheriff Deputies over not being able to see an "R" rated movie, without their parents or a responsible adult. That's right, over 15 middle school age youth, under 15 were out by themselves causing a lot disturbance in front of everyone at the theater. I was so embarrassed I had to go over to the counter and tell them to stop this foolishness and go home!! They started to try and tell me to get out their face until I told them I'm with the school system and pulled up one of their home information on my phone!!! That caused them to want to know who I was. I told them too late, I will see them at their school on Monday! Who in the world would take young children to the movies, purchase "R" rated movie tickets then leave them to hang out until after 11pm unchaperoned!!! Please don't tell me their parents did this!! I commend the sheriff's there last night for their composure, even when a little girl actually had to be restrained when she pushed at the officer. Last night could have gone very ugly and there would have been FB posts all over the place talking about police mishandling youth...But these youth are getting out of control late at night all by themselves. Parents, guardians, caregivers, whoever you are that are responsible for young children, we need to step up our game and help mold our children in a positive direction!! Watching "When the Bough Breaks" is not moving our children in a positive direction!! We can only blame ourselves if we continue to allow children to act like adults and we as adults stand around and do nothing. There were many adults there last night but no one wanted to get involved. What is happening now is parents/adults don't want to discipline their children. Dr. Julia Hare (please checkout youtube) said, "discipline is gone because everyone is afraid, the teachers are afraid of the principal, the principal is afraid of the superintendent, the superintendent is afraid of the school board, the school board is afraid of the parents, the parents are afraid of the kids and the kids ARE AFRAID OF NO ONE!!! We can't keep allowing our children to act like this…Some parents will receive calls from me this week!! But in the meantime, I need some people to help me help our community. We do not need law enforcement to solve our problems, lets pull together as a community as a village and raise our children right!! Contact me to help.

Judge orders civil trial in death of 26-year-old with Down syndrome

Posted: 12 Sep 2016 01:30 PM PDT

A federal judge in Maryland ruled Friday that a lawsuit against three Frederick County sheriff's deputies will move forward to ­trial, allowing a jury to decide whether their actions led to the death of a young man with Down syndrome.

In January 2013, Robert Ethan Saylor, 26, went with an aide to watch "Zero Dark Thirty" at a Frederick-area mall and, after refusing to leave the theater during a second showing, was forced from his seat by the deputies who were working off-duty as security officers.

During a struggle, Saylor — who went by his middle name — ended up on the floor and suffered a fractured larynx. His death was later ruled a homicide as a result of asphyxia.

Nasal spray not recommended for flu vaccine this year

Posted: 12 Sep 2016 12:30 PM PDT

Sorry, little one, this news is going to pinch for a couple of seconds: This year's flu vaccine will probably have to come in the form of a shot, not those two little puffs up the nose. Because when it comes to preventing the misery of the flu, that nasal spray vaccine has proved to be a bit of a flop.

No, the adults don't really know why. But when they went back over the last three flu seasons and did the math, they found that kids between 2 and 17 who got the vaccine made with live attenuated virus — the puff up the nose — were 21/2 times more likely than children who got the shot (which uses an inactivated virus to teach the immune system) to get sick with the flu.

So for the coming year, at least, the American Academy of Pediatrics — the group that gives your doctor advice about your care — is recommending that FluMist "should not be used in any setting."

The Case Against James Comey

Posted: 12 Sep 2016 12:00 PM PDT

With hard, hooded eyes and a pugilistic bearing, J. Edgar Hoover's official portrait glowers—face fixed in a bulldog scowl—down the hallways of the FBI's Washington headquarters. Even the building itself—a crumbling brutalist cathedral, windowless at street level and wreathed in security cameras—seems to evoke something of the man, its namesake, who bent the bureau to his will during the terms of eight presidents, from Coolidge to Nixon.

Hoover never so much as crossed the threshold of the office where his latest successor, James Comey, now works. Yet the edifice and the institution remain haunted by Hoover's legacy of unchecked power, which rendered him judge, jury and executioner of anyone who came into his sights.

The FBI's history is divided into two distinct epochs: Hoover and post-Hoover. After Hoover's death in office in 1972, Congress enacted laws designed to curtail the abuses—from illegal wiretaps and "black bag" jobs to campaigns of intimidation and blackmail—that defined his 48-year reign. Of the six directors who have followed, all but one have projected far lower profiles, eschewing the dramatic assertions of power that made 
Hoover so dangerous. Only James Comey, the seventh and current FBI director, has strayed from this well-worn path.

Maryland Higher Education Commission offers help to ITT Tech students

BALTIMORE —Students enrolled at the failed ITT Tech Institute are still coming to grips with the school's closing this week. The state has stepped in to try and help them decide what to do.

More than 600 ITT students enrolled at the schools Baltimore and Anne Arundel counties campuses are impacted by the school's closing. Looking for answers, they're now being encouraged to contact the Maryland Higher Education Commission.

"I look at it in terms of the dreams. People have dreams and they pursue them aggressively. They are the ones who chose to go after these degrees," Fielder said.

5,300 Wells Fargo employees fired over 2 million phony accounts

Posted: 12 Sep 2016 10:00 AM PDT

Everyone hates paying bank fees. But imagine paying fees on a ghost account you didn't even sign up for.

That's exactly what happened to Wells Fargo customers nationwide.

On Thursday, federal regulators said Wells Fargo (WFC) employees secretly created millions of unauthorized bank and credit card accounts -- without their customers knowing it -- since 2011.

The phony accounts earned the bank unwarranted fees and allowed Wells Fargo employees to boost their sales figures and make more money.

"Wells Fargo employees secretly opened unauthorized accounts to hit sales targets and receive bonuses," Richard Cordray, director of the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau, said in a statement.

Wells Fargo confirmed to CNNMoney that it had fired 5,300 employees over the last few years related to the shady behavior. Employees went so far as to create phony PIN numbers and fake email addresses to enroll customers in online banking services, the CFPB said.

Posted: 12 Sep 2016 09:37 AM PDT

Friday at the Values Voter Summit in Washington DC, Republican presidential nominee Donald Trump said if his opponent, Democratic nominee Hillary Clinton, wins she will nominate liberal Supreme Court justices, meaning you can "kiss the Second Amendment goodbye."

Trump said, "We're going to protect your Second Amendment, so many things, but one of the most important, some people actually think it's the most important, is the filling of the seats of the United States Supreme Court. You see what's happening right now, essentially it's four and four and you see how bad it is. We're going to pick great judges. I've already put a list of 11, the Federalist Society highly recommended, got uniform great reviews on these 11 people and we are going to put truly great people. Maybe we use Judge Scalia as the ultimate example of what we are looking for, okay. This will determine whether or not we remain a constitutional republic, frankly. That's what's going to happen. I have pledged to appoint judges who are upholding the Constitution, to protect your religious liberty and apply the law as written. We reject judges that rewrite the Constitution to impose their own personal views on 300 million plus Americans."

Growth for Maryland Casinos

Posted: 12 Sep 2016 09:30 AM PDT

BALTIMORE (WJZ) — With five casinos in the state and one more on the way, the casinos' numbers are looking better than ever. Tracey Leong explains why.

This past August, Maryland casinos generated more than 100 million dollars in revenue– almost a four percent spike from last year.

Maryland is home to five booming casinos: Horseshoe Casino in Baltimore, Hollywood Casino in Perryville, Ocean Downs Casino near Ocean City, and Maryland Live Casino in Anne Arundel County.

The casinos netted a combined $100.3 million dollars. This is the fourth time since the casinos opened in 2010, that revenue was more than $100 million.

And now, with one of them now expanding, that's an even bigger boost for our state.

Exposed: FBI Director James Comey's Clinton Foundation Connection

Posted: 12 Sep 2016 09:23 AM PDT

WASHINGTON, D.C. — A review of FBI Director James Comey's professional history and relationships shows that the Obama cabinet leader — now under fire for his handling of the investigation of Hillary Clinton — is deeply entrenched in the big-money cronyism culture of Washington, D.C. His personal and professional relationships — all undisclosed as he announced the Bureau would not prosecute Clinton — reinforce bipartisan concerns that he may have politicized the criminal probe.

These concerns focus on millions of dollars that Comey accepted from a Clinton Foundation defense contractor, Comey's former membership on a Clinton Foundation corporate partner's board, and his surprising financial relationship with his brother Peter Comey, who works at the law firm that does the Clinton Foundation's taxes.

Hillary: I Only Seem ‘Cold Or Unemotional’ Because Sexist Men Harassed Me

Posted: 12 Sep 2016 09:15 AM PDT

Hillary is only unlikable because of sexism, according to Hillary.

The Democratic nominee is notoriously unlikable, and often perceived as cold,robotic or unemotional. She's also known for playing up the gender card and crying sexism at every available opportunity. On Wednesday, the two collided: Hillary excused her "cold" and "unemotional" persona by citing good old-fashioned sexism.

Surprising stuff.

"I know that I can be perceived as aloof or cold or unemotional. But I had to learn as a young woman to control my emotions. And that's a hard path to walk," oppressed Hillary told Humans of New York.

Trump Hammers Hillary In Amazing Speech

Posted: 12 Sep 2016 09:00 AM PDT

GOP nominee Donald Trump hammered Hillary Clinton in another stern speech, saying that his rival is operating a "criminal enterprise" and has "unleashed ISIS" on the world.

"She put the country, and I mean the entire country, at risk to cover up her pay-for-play scandals as secretary of State," Trump said. "These include scandals of giving uranium to Russia, doing favors for UBS bank, and selling contracts to friends and family in Haiti. It's all about hiding criminal enterprise."

Also learn how young students are garnering support on college campuses for the candidate by highlighting Trump's pro-American policies.

Dolphins recorded having a conversation 'just like two people' for first time

Posted: 12 Sep 2016 08:45 AM PDT

Two dolphins have been recorded having a conversation for the first time after scientists developed an underwater microphone which could distinguish the animals' different "voices".

Researchers have known for decades that the mammals had an advanced form of communication, using distinctive clicks and whistles to show they are excited, happy, stressed or separated from the group.

But scientists have now shown that dolphins alter the volume and frequency of pulsed clicks to form individual "words" which they string together into sentences in much the same way that humans speak.

Researchers at the Karadag Nature Reserve, in Feodosia, Russia, recorded two Black Sea bottlenose dolphins, called Yasha and Yana, talking to each other in a pool. They found that each dolphin would listen to a sentence of pulses without interruption, before replying.

PHILADELPHIA (AP) — Thousands of bicyclists dared to be bare for the city's annual nude ride promoting positive body image, cycling advocacy and fuel conservation.

About 3,000 people gathered Saturday for the eighth annual Philly Naked Bike Ride through the city's streets. They set off from a park near the Philadelphia Museum of Art, where Sylvester Stallone ran up the steps in the "Rocky" movies.

The annual ride featured people sporting underwear, body paint, glitter or nothing at all. Some riders concerned about being recognized by their parents or co-workers wore masks while others wore just their shoes.

9/11 Moment Of Silence Moved Up Because Obama Was Impatient

Posted: 12 Sep 2016 07:30 AM PDT

A moment of silence remembering the September 11 victims at a Pentagon memorial service began early in order to accommodate a restless President Obama, a Department of Defense official told The Daily Caller.

A source close to the situation told TheDC that Obama arrived early to the memorial service — which took place at the Pentagon — and wanted to get things started early.

A Department of Defense official confirmed that the moment of silence was moved up a few minutes and that Obama was the one who made the decision, saying the president "moved early."

A Viewer Writes: Boardwalk owner refuses to give fire fighter ice for heat exhaustion

Posted: 12 Sep 2016 07:23 AM PDT

To all who spend time and money on Ocean City Maryland boardwalk, I was attending the September 911 memorial ceremonies when a first responder fire fighter in full dress, became overwhelmed with the heat I walked over to him and said I would try to get him a small bag of ice.  

I walked over to the shop near Division Street and politely asked him if he could spare a small bag of ice and he said with a heavy foreign accent he has to buy the ice so I offered to buy it from him, in which he refused. I think this is deplorable not just the fact that this man would give without asking for anything to help you in a time of need, but you couldn't sell a small bag of ice. If this is the type of person that we are letting into this country STAY HOME. We don't need you, nor want you! 

I will not spend one penny in his shop and I hope others will read this post and follow my lead.

"I am, of course, delighted to have 500 5-star reviews of 'Hillary The Other Woman,' on Amazon," she told WND.

Trump: 'This Will Be the Last Election that the Republicans Have a Chance of Winning'

Posted: 12 Sep 2016 07:00 AM PDT

In an exclusive interview with The Brody File, Donald Trump says if he doesn't win in November, Republicans will never win another election because Hillary Clinton will make sure illegal immigrants get citizenship.

"This will be the last election that the Republicans have a chance of winning," Trump tells us from backstage at the Values Voter Summit in Washington, D.C., on Friday. "You're going to have people flowing across the border, you're going to have illegal immigrants coming in and they're going to be legalized and they're going to be able to vote and once that all happens you can forget it."

Clinton: half of Trump supporters belong in "basket of deplorables"

Posted: 12 Sep 2016 06:53 AM PDT

Donald Trump slammed Hillary Clinton saying she made 'the worst mistake of the political season' after describing his supporters as a 'basket of deplorables'.

In a statement Saturday, Clinton backtracked on her comments saying she regrets half of her remarks, after admitting she was 'grossly generalistic' in what she said at the LGBT fundraiser in New York Friday, adding 'that's never a good idea'.

She had called half of Trump's supporters racist, homophobic, sexist, xenophobic, or Islamophobic and said they belonged in a 'basket of deplorables'.

The Republican presidential nominee hit back at her in a series of tweets and a statement after she spoke of her regret.

MARYLAND GOVERNOR ALLOTS FUNDS FOR SCHOOL BUS SAFETY

Posted: 12 Sep 2016 06:30 AM PDT

   Maryland Gov. Larry Hogan announced the state will set aside more than a half million dollars to assist local law enforcement agencies with enforcing school bus safety laws, specifically to pay overtime hours to police officers who patrol school bus routes.  

The program, announced last week, also earmarks funds educate the public about stopping for school buses that are loading and unloading students. State law requires that motorists come to a complete stop 20 feet behind or in front of a school bus with a deployed stop arm and flashing lights, and to remain stopped until the safety procedures are completed. Those in violation of this law may be fined and receive points on their driver's licenses.

"Maryland children are back to school, and many ride school buses every day to get to class," said Gov. Larry Hogan. "It's our job—as parents, grandparents, and government leaders—to be sure they are safe on their way to and from school."

The Maryland Department of Education conducted a one-day survey in April that shows participating school bus drivers reported a total of 4,334 instances of illegal passing.

Clinton Aides Attack, Threaten Reporter for Saying Hillary Looked 'Low Energy' at Friday Press Conference

Posted: 12 Sep 2016 06:23 AM PDT

Daily Mail U.S. Political Editor David Martosko was attacked online by current and former aides to Democratic presidential nominee Hillary Clinton for commenting about Clinton's tired, listless appearance at a press conference on Friday about national security. Martosko was also challenged by two reporters who defended Clinton.

Nick Merrill, Clinton's traveling press secretary, and Adam Parkhomenko, who was a state coordinator for the Clinton campaign and is now National Field Director for the Democratic Party, each replied to a tweet thread by Martosko about Clinton's demeanor with Parkomenko threatening his job and Merrill employing the 'delete your account' othering insult.

When reporters are publicly attacked by high ranking political operatives it is not just meant to intimidate that reporter, it is meant to 'other' him by separating him from the herd and intimidate other reporters from following his lead.

Martosko was off the campaign trail and commented as he watched video of the press conference.

Brown University Providing Tampons in Men’s Bathrooms Because ‘Both Sexes Menstruate’

Posted: 12 Sep 2016 06:00 AM PDT

Tampons are now a genderless necessity, according to Brown University, who have announced that they will be providing tampons for both men's and women's bathrooms across the university this academic year.

The tampons will be delivered to bathrooms by the university's student president, Viet Nguyen, as well as 20 volunteers, with Nguyen claiming the initiative is a means of educating students that men menstruate as well as women.

In an email to the student body, Nguyen said, "There's been a lot of conversation about why pads and tampons are a necessity, not a luxury, but not a lot of action. We wanted to take it into our own hands."

Security vet: ‘Smoking gun’ email should put Hillary in prison

Posted: 12 Sep 2016 05:47 AM PDT

Clearly marked classified info sent through nonsecure system

The handling of an email to Hillary Clinton from longtime adviser Sidney Blumenthal discovered in a new release of documents is a "smoking gun" violation of national security laws requiring a prison sentence, charges a former military intelligence officer.

Clinton forwarded the Aug. 8, 2009, email – clearly marked "Classified" – to a personal, nonsecure email address registered to aide Huma Abedin, huma@clintonemail.com. Abedin then forwarded the message to another personal, nonsecure account, humamabedin@yahoo.com.

The exchange from Blumenthal to Clinton concerned the "disastrous nature" of an Obama trip to Germany, charging the U.S. was "totally out of the loop in Berlin – no ambassador," resulting in the expectation that "Germans and Russians will now cut their own separate deals on energy, regional security, etc."

Are There Two Hillary Clinton's?

After yesterday's medical problem where Hillary fainted, a woman emerged later in the day many are questioning of she was actually Hillary or a double. I have to admit myself, as soon as I saw the other woman emerge I said, that's not Hillary. So the big question is, do you think the Clinton camp is putting a double out there every so often while Hillary "RESTS"?
