PHILADELPHIA (AP) — Philadelphia police say a boy charged with aggravated assault was expected to surrender Saturday in connection with a shooting that wounded two students at a high school gymnasium.

Police say another boy already in custody in Friday’s shooting at the Delaware Valley Charter High School in north Philadelphia has not been charged yet. Police aren’t identifying either boy because of their age, but say they’ve been in contact with the second suspect’s parents, which is why they expected him to turn himself in.   Continue reading “Police: 2nd Philly school suspect to surrender”

CHARLESTON, W.Va. (AP) — The smell lingers — the slightly sweet, slightly bitter odor of a chemical that contaminated the water supply of West Virginia’s capital more than a week ago. It creeps out of faucets and shower heads. It wafts from the Elk River, the site of the spill. Sometimes it hangs in the cold nighttime air.

For several days, a majority of Charleston-area residents have been told their water is safe to drink, that the concentration of a chemical used to wash coal is so low that it won’t be harmful. Restaurants have reopened — using tap water to wash dishes and produce, clean out their soda fountains and make ice.   Continue reading “Many remain wary of W.Va. water as smell lingers”

CAIRO (AP) — Almost everyone who cast ballots supported Egypt’s new constitution in this week’s referendum, results announced Saturday show, but a boycott by Islamists and low youth turnout suggest the country is still dangerously divided.

Nearly 20 million voters backed the new constitution, almost double the number of those who voted for one drafted in 2012 under the government of toppled Islamist President Mohammed Morsi. Only a narrow sliver of voters — 1.9 percent — voted against the charter, after a massive government-sponsored campaign supporting it and the arrest of activists campaigning against it.   Continue reading “Voters overwhelmingly back new Egypt constitution”

WICHITA, Kan. (AP) — The U.S. Election Assistance Commission found Friday that heightened proof-of-citizenship requirements likely would hinder eligible citizens from voting in federal elections, handing down a ruling that denied requests from Kansas, Arizona and Georgia to modify the registration form for their residents.

The decision came just hours before a court-imposed deadline in a lawsuit filed in federal court by Kansas and Arizona that seeks to force the commission to modify state-specific requirements for registering to vote in those states. Georgia, which has a similar voter registration law, is not part of the litigation but was included in the commission’s decision.   Continue reading “Feds deny state bids to tighten voter registration”

Eric Holder’s idea of implementing justice is to shake down banks on trumped up charges based on vague statistics and leftist theories. Holder’s Department of Justice recently leveled a $100 million fine against Ally Bank for “racist” lending practices without a shred of evidence. And Ally’s not the only victim of Obama/Holder Inc.’s protection racket. Apparently, the post-racial presidency of Barack Obama has decided to extort almost a billion dollars from capitalist institutions under the unjustified pretense of ‘race-based’ predatory lending.   Continue reading “Eric Holder’s Billion Dollar Extortion Scheme”

One of former President Bill Clinton’s favorite restaurants has eliminated its Friday buffet due to Obamacare.

“We regret we had to make this decision but unfortunately we face new expenses as a result of the Healthcare reform and the Friday Buffet, though wonderful, was not profitable and required extra staff which we can no longer sustain,” a notice at the Georgetown Italian restaurant’s website reads.   Continue reading “Bill Clinton’s favorite DC restaurant shuts down buffet due to Obamacare”

like a blanket the tyranny covers us all
and builds walls to keep us apart
as we eagerly wait for the tyrant to fall
we long for the nation’s new start

And as policemen cause our children to die
congressmen use them for sex
and as the population is living a lie
they cannot fathom what’s next

the elections are rigged and the courts are a crime
jail is for financial gain
the candidates we’re given are grown from slime
and only increase our pain   Continue reading “Tyranny’s Fall”
