Federal prosecutors want convicted Boston Marathon bomber Dzhokhar Tsarnaev to use a $1,400 COVID-19 stimulus payment he received as well as other money held in his inmate trust account to help pay the millions of dollars he was ordered to pay his victims. In a filing Wednesday, the U.S. attorney’s office in Boston asked a judge to order the federal Bureau of Prisons to turn the money over to the Clerk of the Court “as payment towards his outstanding criminal monetary penalties, including unpaid special assessment and restitution.” In addition to the stimulus payment, Tsarnaev, who’s being held at a maximum security prison in Florence, Colorado, has received money

Comments:

It will cost taxpayers many multiples of the $1,400 just in paperwork time and legal posturing spread across however many government employees, all who are vitally important to the wellbeing of the nation. We're so broke that they simply print money to cover expenses, stealing our wealth through inflation, and yet they soldier on. Is this a great country or what?

See there, you federal idiots!! If you had executed the Crock-pot bombers, like the rest of the nation thought you should, all you would be out is a little electricity, a bit of cyanide, or a few feet of rope (which is reusable!). Then you wouldn't worry about any funds which could have been sent to the next of kin and out of your greedy, feral, federal clutches.

Why has this sub-human vermin not been exterminated yet?!?!?!? Just put him in general population in the prison, and let the gangs have a little "fun" with him before they do everyone a favor and kill him!!! And, for good measure, give them a nice pot of pig fat to slather on his body before they kill him. Sorry, no paradise and 72 virgins for you, you evil pile of Satan's excrement!!!

Moderna is working on a single jab which could inoculate Britons against both Covid and flu as early as next year. The American drug company’s UK chief Darius Hughes said an annual ‘combination’ vaccine would be more convenient for patients because it required fewer visits to a medical facility and cut the NHS’s cost of administering vaccinations. Mr Hughes said an inoculation against coronavirus and flu could be available by the winter of 2023 ‘at a stretch’.(Snip)Moderna also hopes to create a jab that tackles Covid, influenza and respiratory syncytial virus (RSV), which typically causes mild symptoms but can be serious, especially for infants and older adults

A new NFL rule threatens teams with financial penalties and the loss of a draft pick if they ask prospective recruits about personal issues such as their marijuana habits, sexual orientation and whether their mothers have ever been prostitutes. In a Wednesday letter to the league’s 32 teams that ESPN obtained, the NFL said clubs will forfeit a draft pick between the first and fourth rounds and receive a minimum $150,000 fine if coaches ask “disrespectful, inappropriate or unprofessional” questions during an interview. Team representatives also will face individual fines and suspensions over their conduct with draft prospects. “All clubs should ensure that prospective draft picks are afforded a respectful

Women who received the coronavirus vaccine experienced almost a day longer menstrual cycle than usual, a new study reveals. The findings, published in the journal Obstetrics & Genecology, validate claims from thousands of women who reported erratic changes in their cycle after getting the shot. A team of scientists led by Oregon Health and Science University analyzed cycles of nearly 4,000 women through a fertility tracking app—some of which were vaccinated and others were unvaccinated. The average increase in women’s cycles after the first vaccine dose was 0.64-day (about 15.36 hours), and 0.79-day (about 18.96 hours) following the second dose. However, a subgroup of app users who received two

Omicron could be even less deadly than flu, scientists believe in a boost to hopes that the worst of the pandemic is over. Some experts have always maintained that the coronavirus would eventually morph into a seasonal cold-like virus as the world develops immunity through vaccines and natural infection. But the emergence of the highly-mutated Omicron variant appears to have sped the process up. MailOnline analysis shows Covid killed one in 33 people who tested positive at the peak of the devastating second wave last January, compared to just one in 670 now. But experts believe the figure could be even lower because of Omicron.

Hospitalizations of U.S. children under 5 with COVID-19 soared in recent weeks to their highest level since the pandemic began, according to government data released Friday on the only age group not yet eligible for the vaccine. The worrisome trend in children too young to be vaccinated underscores the need for older kids and adults to get their shots to help protect those around them, said Dr. Rochelle Walensky, director of the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention. Since mid-December, with the highly contagious omicron variant spreading furiously around the country, the hospitalization rate in these youngest kids has surged to more than 4 in 100,000 children, up from 2.5 per 100,000.

The liberal wing of the Supreme Court embarrassed itself Friday with a slew of false claims about COVID-19 during oral arguments over Joe Biden’s vaccine mandates. For example, Justice Stephen Breyer claimed hospitals are at capacity because of unvaccinated Americans with COVID. This is false. But perhaps the most ridiculous false claim from a Supreme Court justice came from Justice Sonia Sotomayor, who falsely claimed that 100,000 children are in “serious condition” from COVID. “We have hospitals that are almost at full capacity with people severely ill on ventilators. We have over 100,000 children, which we’ve never had before, in serious condition, and many on ventilators,” Sotomayor claimed.

"I do think in places that we are seeing this really steep incline, that we may well see also a precipitous decline, but we're also a much bigger country than South Africa," Walensky said in a briefing with reporters.
