MINNEAPOLIS - A church in Minneapolis is searching for answers after land that it owns was recently occupied by a large homeless encampment. "They have no place to go, but at the same time I don’t think it’s appropriate to just go and conquer private property," church chairman Andualem Emiru told FOX 9. (Snip) "We are expecting maybe more people [are] going to show up there," church chairman Melaku Weldetsadik continued. "We called the police and they showed up and they told us that they have not enough force to remove them." Weldetsadik’s Ethiopian Orthodox Church owns the nearly 3-acre

Only 11 percent of Americans who have not been vaccinated for COVID-19 say they will definitely do so, according to a poll from The Associated Press-NORC Center for Public Affairs Research released Tuesday. Thirty-five percent of Americans surveyed said they have not received a COVID-19 vaccine compared to 64 percent who said they have. (Snip) The poll comes as demand for the COVID-19 vaccine declines as those who were most eager to get vaccinated have already done so. President Biden is expected to speak with a bipartisan group of governors virtually on Tuesday to discuss strategies to get more shots
WASHINGTON — U.S. employers posted a record number of available jobs in March, illustrating starkly the desperation of businesses seeking to find new workers as the economy expands. Yet total job gains increased only modestly, according to a Labor Department report issued Tuesday. The figures come after the April jobs report, released Friday, that fell far short of economists' expectations, largely because companies appear unable to find the workers they need, even with the unemployment rate elevated at 6.1%. (Snip) The enormous number of openings will likely add fuel to a political dispute about whether the extra $300 in weekly federal
President Biden on Monday said there’s “no evidence” that the Russian government is behind the Colonial Pipeline ransomware hack, but that it has a responsibility to respond because the suspected perpetrators are Russian. Biden noted in his first remarks on the devastating oil pipeline hack that he plans to meet next month with Russian President Vladimir Putin in his first overseas trip. “I’m gonna have a conver — I’m going to be meeting with President Putin and so far there is no evidence based on, from our intelligence people, that Russia is involved. Although there is evidence that the actors’
Democrat Jana Lynne Sanchez, confident the Congressional District 6 seat could be flipped, thought she would be in a runoff with Republican Susan Wright for the U.S. House seat that was held by Wright’s husband. Instead, Democrats were shut out of a runoff in the special election. (Snip) Political analysts and observers say low Democrat turnout, a field of 23 candidates and a district that favors Republicans played a role in keeping a Democrat out of the race. While former President Trump credits his endorsement of Wright, Sanchez thinks the outcome on May 1 could have been different if the
Outrage is rising among Democrats over events in the Middle East — and it’s aimed at Israel. A previous generation of Democrats leaned heavily into the idea of Israel as a stalwart U.S. ally. U.S. criticism of Israel was muted or nonexistent, and Washington often acted as a bulwark against international opprobrium. But the progressives on the rise today are more likely to draw parallels between the plight of the Palestinians and the injustices faced by Black Americans, or to compare Israel’s posture with apartheid-era South Africa.“I know what it’s like to be brutalized for simply advocating for my own

On March 21, 1950, an Illinois congressman named Ralph Church suddenly slumped in his seat while testifying before a House committee. His colleagues rushed to administer aid, but he was pronounced dead of a heart attack at 66. He was neither the first nor the last member of Congress to die in office. ''You look back in history, nearly 1 in 10 members of Congress have,” said Jane L. Campbell, president of the U.S. Capitol Historical Society. That history has some Democrats worried that deaths or illnesses could derail President Joe Biden’s efforts to pass ambitious bills through Congress, which
COLORADO SPRINGS, Colo. - A gunman opened fire during a birthday party early Sunday morning, leaving behind a horrific scene with more than half a dozen dead inside a mobile home. “Words fall short to describe the tragedy that took place this morning,” said Colorado Springs Police Chief Vince Niski. The party was being held at a home on Preakness Way inside the Canterbury Manufactured Home Community on the east side of the city. Police say the celebration was still in full swing at 12:40 a.m. when the boyfriend of one of the victims barged in with a gun and
LOS ANGELES - Los Angeles Sanitation and Environment crews removed 35.7 tons of solid waste from Echo Park Lake since the park's closure on March 25, and a news report Thursday indicated that the park could reopen by the end of the month. According to LASAN documents, posted by the Los Angeles Times Thursday, cleanup crews removed 723.5 pounds of biological waste and 300 pounds of hazardous waste, which included ignitable, paint, sharp objects and drug paraphernalia. (Snip) On top of possessions, drug paraphernalia and dangerous waste, crews found plenty of… urine. "I couldn't believe it," said Echo Park resident
As protesters take to the streets to fight for racial equality in the United States, experts in digital technology are quietly tackling a lesser known but related injustice. It's called techno-racism. And while you may not have heard of it, it's baked into some of the technology we encounter every day. Digital technologies used by government agencies and private companies can unwittingly discriminate against people of color, making techno-racism a new and crucial part of the battle for civil rights, experts say.
"It's not just the physical streets. Black folks now have to fight the civil rights fight on the
It's already ridiculous that the foundation of this country relies on who the president is when one of nine geriatric Supreme Court justices either dies or retires. It's doubly ridiculous then, that a Supreme Court justice would understand this fickle structure, see its constant abuse by one political side, and yet refuse to retire when the party that most aligns with their judicial philosophy is in power. (Snip) Apparently, history really does repeat itself, as another left-leaning, 80-something year-old Supreme Court justice is refusing to retire at a time when the Democrats have a precarious hold on the Senate, and
New York City is still using refrigerated trucks to store bodies of coronavirus victims, more than a year after they were first set up as temporary morgues as deaths surged at at the height of the pandemic. The city's medical examiner's office said Friday that 750 bodies are being kept in long-term storage in refrigerated trailers at a Brooklyn pier while family members sort out plans for their final resting places. Dina Maniotis, a deputy commissioner with the Office of Chief Medical Examiner, told a city council committee on Wednesday that many of the bodies held at the 39th Street

A large group of Iranian military fast attack boats on Monday harassed six United States Navy ships escorting a guided missile submarine into the Strait of Hormuz, the Pentagon said.
“Earlier today a large group of Iranian Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps Navy, also known as the IRGCN, fast boats conducted unsafe and unprofessional maneuvers and failed to exercise due regard for the safety of U.S. forces as required under international law while operating in close proximity to U.S. Naval vessels that were transiting the Strait of Hormuz,” Pentagon Press Secretary John Kirby said.

Sen. Mitt Romney warned Monday removing Rep. Liz Cheney from GOP leadership in the House will drive voters away from the Republican Party. House Minority Leader Kevin McCarthy plans to hold a vote Wednesday to oust Ms. Cheney as House conference chair. “Expelling Liz Cheney from leadership won’t gain the GOP one additional voter, but it will cost us quite a few,” Mr. Romney said on Twitter. Mr. Romney is the sole Republican in the Senate to vote to convict Mr. Trump on an abuse-of-power charge following the Jan. 6 riot at the U.S. Capitol.

Cyberattacks on US soil are 'here to stay' a Joe Biden official warned Sunday, following a sophisticated ransomware attack on the largest gasoline pipeline in the country. The pipeline remained shut as of Sunday evening with its operator declining to say when it would reopen. Colonial Pipeline said it will bring the full system back online 'only when we believe it is safe to do so'. Commerce Secretary Gina Raimondo had earlier warned Sunday: 'This is what businesses now have to worry about.(Snip) Bloomberg News, citing people familiar with the matter, said hackers took nearly 100 gigabytes of data out of Colonial's network
A Texas rancher living north of Eagle Pass discovered five unaccompanied migrant children abandoned by smugglers on their farmland Saturday night. The five small girls, ranging in ages from one to six years old, were led across the Rio Grande River and abandoned the evening before. The human smugglers left them with no food, water, or any adults to care for them throughout the night.
The rancher’s wife shot a video when they found the children on Mothers Day Sunday morning. The frustrated woman expressed their displeasure for the dangers the children faced throughout the night and the seriousness of their situation. Temperatures reached 103 degrees on Sunday
On Friday’s broadcast of “CBS This Morning,” Michelle Obama made the delusional claim, one among several, that “many of us still live in fear as we go to the grocery store, or walking our dogs, or allowing our children to get a license.” (snip) Barack Obama knows better, but he has lived in fear as well. That fear deformed his presidency and sent the nation spiraling down a lethal rabbit hole that has benefitted no one more than the Mao-loving matrons of BLM.

There can be no denying that the political left are an intolerant and authoritarian bunch. The Democratic party that represents it wants to cancel the rights of anyone who disagrees with them.Showing that fascism is all in the family, Chelsea Clinton has joined the calls for social media censorship. After all, it’s been a standard feature of her mother’s bitter Twitter diatribes since she was rejected by voters in the 2016 election.
The heir to the Clinton political dynasty joined the team effort to save Joe Biden from an early humiliation by steamrolling any opposition to his stated goal of vaccinating 70 percent of the U.S. by July 4th.
The head of the Vatican’s doctrine office is warning U.S. bishops to deliberate carefully and minimize divisions before proceeding with a possible plan to rebuke Roman Catholic politicians such as President Joe Biden for receiving Communion even though they support abortion rights.

The USCCB will convene for a national meeting June 16, with plans to vote on drafting a document on the Communion issue.

Vivica A Fox has accused Ivanka Trump of making a racist comment towards her during her time on Celebrity Apprentice. In a discussion this week about past racial controversies on reality TV the actress, 56, recalled the time in 2015 when the former president's daughter, 39, told her: 'Wow, you speak very well.'

If you have been keeping an eye on the election audit taking place right now in Maricopa County, Arizona, then you also know that Democrats, news propagandists, and "concerned" NeverTrump Republicans are beginning to sound more and more like trapped rats squeaking in fear. An army of lawyers — many of the same political operatives who manipulated the November election by contravening existing election laws and flooding battleground states with uncontrolled and unverified mail-in ballots — are begging state and federal courts to stop the audit midcourse and petitioning Arizona's Democrat secretary of state and Merrick Garland's Department of Justice to intervene

I feel badly for the church members who have no recourse. Neighbors report illicit activities going on, and the city is of no help.
