Strong winds stoke flames, fears as Kincade Fire rages on – The Mercury News

SANTA ROSA — The dreaded North Bay winds whipped up again Tuesday, raising the stakes in the fierce battle against the Kincade blaze as firefighters from around the state raced to try and keep the fire from spreading and incinerating more Wine Country homes.

Fanned by winds reaching speeds of up to 40 mph Tuesday afternoon and forecasted to grow stronger overnight, the fire in Sonoma County had burned more than 76,000 acres — making it to the edge of the 2017 Tubbs Fire — and still was only 15% contained. The blaze has destroyed 189 structures, of which 86 are single-family homes, seven are commercial buildings and 96 are sheds or outbuildings, and damaged another 39. About 90,000 structures remain threatened.

“The winds are what makes it difficult. It can change on you so quickly,” said Nathaniel Armstrong, battalion chief of the Hayward Fire Department, as he and his crew prepared for their fourth day of work on the fire.

Meanwhile, power outages and air quality issues persisted throughout the Bay Area. As of Tuesday evening, 540,000 PG&E customers were without power as a result of planned outages intended to prevent PG&E equipment from starting wildfires, Mark Quinlan, PG&E senior director of emergency preparedness and response, said during a media call. The utility expected to receive the “all-clear” to restore power to Northern California customers by 8 a.m. Wednesday.

On Tuesday, PG&E notified Gov. Gavin Newsom’s office that it’s planning to issue rebates to customers affected by a public safety power, or PSPS, shutoff earlier this month. More details on the plans were not immediately available. Newsom earlier this month pressured the utility to provide $100 rebates for each residential customer who lost power, and $250 for business customers.

“We have carefully considered the governor’s request to provide reimbursement for our customers impacted by the Oct. 9 PSPS and we have agreed to move forward with a one-time bill credit for customers impacted by that event,” said PG&E Corp. CEO and President Bill Johnson in a statement.

“We believe it is the right thing to do for our customers in this case, given the challenges with our website and call center communications,” Johnson continued.

The California Public Utilities Commission on Monday announced it will open an investigation into the shutoffs.

At the same time, temperatures around the Bay Area are expected to drop significantly this week — to near or below freezing in some places — making it harder for residents without power to keep warm.

“We want to warn individuals, in particular our unsheltered population, that they can seek shelter at many of our evacuation shelter sites,” said Barbie Robinson, director of the Sonoma County Health Services Department. “And we want to encourage folks that are living in tents or living in their cars to please come in and seek shelter during this cold weather advisory.”

And the region was hit with another “Spare the Air” alert for Wednesday — the third day in a row. While the air was expected to clear Wednesday morning, it likely will worsen again Wednesday afternoon as winds decrease and smoke drains south into the Bay Area, according to a news release from the Bay Area Air Quality Management District.

The fierce winds died down momentarily Monday, but the fire continued its eastward push, and a spot fire that ignited in Lake County continued to grow. As the sun went down Tuesday in Sonoma County, and the National Weather Service predicted wind gusts of up to 60 mph overnight before subsiding Wednesday morning, firefighters were gearing up for the worst at three battlegrounds.

“This is going to be hopefully one of the final tests of these fire perimeters, especially on the western side of the Highway 101 corridor area,” said Cal Fire Division Chief Jonathan Cox.

At the fire’s western border, firefighters worried the blaze would jump Highway 101 and advance into a wooded, hilly area near the town of Windsor.

“If it crosses 101, we feel like we’re gonna lose this thing,” Sonoma County Battalion Chief Mark Dunne said Tuesday afternoon as he marshaled crews to watch for spot fires that could ignite from embers  smoldering after an epic battle there Saturday.

Firefighters also had their eye on Shiloh Road, about two miles south of Windsor. At the fire’s southern border, they were watching the unincorporated area of Mark West Springs, which was ravaged in 2017 by the Tubbs Fire. Strong northeast wind currents could push the fire down the canyon toward the Larkfield-Wikiup area and Santa Rosa — just as it did two years ago.

“To see how devastated our community was when that fire came through the town was hard. And two years later, here we go again,” Santa Rosa fire Capt. Jack Thomas said, peering over the hilltop from Pepperwood Preserve Road and into the smoke in the distance. “So we’re doing everything in our power to make sure that never, ever happens again. Or that we at least have some control over the fire compared to in 2017.”

As of 10 p.m.,the southern lines of the fire were holding strong under clear and starry skies. The strong winds expected earlier in the day appeared to be a no-show.

“I don’t think we’re going to get the wind,” Thomas said. “Our EOC got some pretty good intel that the wind event is not going to get here.”

The winds materialized elsewhere. Forest Lake recorded a peak gust of 64 mph about 4:20 p.m., according to the National Weather Service. Other peak gusts included 60 mph in Anderson Springs at 8:50 p.m. and 57 mph in Middletown at 9:10 p.m. But for the majority of Sonoma County, peak gusts ranged from 15 mph to 30 mph.

“It looks like the winds began a little bit earlier than we had anticipated today, so the front end of it coming in earlier might kind of make the tail end of it come through a little bit faster, too,” said weather service meteorologist Rick Canepa in a phone interview late Tuesday night. “We’re mostly on track here for the overnight hours, as forecast.”

By Wednesday morning, the worst — for now — was expected to be over. Winds were predicted to die down after midnight, said weather service meteorologist Ryan Walbrun.

“As we wake up tomorrow morning, we’ll notice the winds are much lighter,” he said.

Walbrun said conditions will continue to improve through the end of the week.

But shifting winds and changing conditions Tuesday added to the stress felt by some evacuees trying desperately to determine if their neighborhoods were in the fire’s path. In front of Finley Hall on the Sonoma County Fairgrounds, where evacuees with small pets are staying, Allison and Gail Baker peered at a map of the fire tacked to a wooden board, tracing their fingers from the southern tip of the fire to their home in Windsor.

It’s been confusing to follow where the blaze is moving and to know whether their home is facing a serious threat, said Allison Baker, though she was reassured by the efforts of both Cal Fire and the Red Cross.

“We (initially) thought we’d be here for three days, but we didn’t know the magnitude of the windstorm,” she said.

For some of the fire’s smallest evacuees, questions and worries abound. Jazmin Jacinto and Elias Dehmes, who evacuated to the fairgrounds from north Santa Rosa, tried to keep spirits high for Dehmes’ two daughters, Ezra, 2, and Nova, 3.

As fire trucks from across the country passed by the center, the family stood outside, waving and signaling for a honk from firefighters — and cheering when their efforts proved successful.

“I think we got that one,” Dehmes said, giving his daughter a high five after a truck full of Red Cross personnel reciprocated their vigorous waves and smiles.

“They’ve been asking a lot of questions, and sleeping was a bit hard last night,” Jacinto said about the girls. “But we just told them it was a giant sleepover, and they’ve been adjusting pretty well.”

Cox, the Cal Fire division chief, said fire crews have been working as hard as they can to get the fire contained and help the community recover.

“I think the best way to describe it is, we’re in a battle rhythm,” he said. “The shifts are very structured now. We have resources that are assigned to areas shift over shift, and I think firefighters are ready to turn the corner after this wind event and really put some closure and some stability back into the community.”

Cox confirmed that there was a minor medical emergency on the fire line Tuesday, but he did not have additional details.

Cal Fire resources kept on top of fires further afield, including a wildland fire that scorched nearly 10 acres of hilly terrain behind homes in rural Palermo, seven miles southeast of Oroville in Butte County, just before 4 p.m. A swift response from more than 100 firefighters stopped flames’ forward progress within hours, leaving it at 50 percent containment as of 8:45 p.m. with mop-up efforts due to continue into Wednesday. There were no reports of injuries or threatened or damaged structures, and its cause was under investigation.

Meanwhile, law enforcement was cracking down on behavior that could aggravate the already precarious situation in the North Bay. On Tuesday morning, California Highway Patrol Capt. Aristotle Wolfe, commander of the Santa Rosa area CHP, stopped a motorist on Highway 101 in Petaluma who had tossed a cigarette butt out the window.

“I’m in an unmarked car. I rarely make stops,” Wolfe said. “But I wasn’t going to let that one go — with smoke in the air and tinder on the highway” from winds blowing branches.

“This is an extremely dangerous time,” he said, “and unsafe or lawless behavior won’t be tolerated.”

Sonoma County Sheriff Mark Essick said at least three cases of looting have been reported in evacuation zones.

“The sheriff’s office is currently investigating all of these cases,” he said, “and I can assure you that if we are able to determine those responsible, arrests will be made and we will prosecute those people to the fullest extent.”

Miami Beach mayor opposes DeSantis’ stance against face mask mandates – WPLG Local 10
Miami Beach mayor opposes DeSantis’ stance against face mask mandates – WPLG Local 10

MIAMI BEACH, Fla. – Miami Beach Mayor Dan Gelber is asking Gov. Ron DeSantis to support the return of face mask mandates as the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention warns the coronavirus’ evolution into the more contagious Delta variant is getting more and more people sick.

The CDC wants officials to “acknowledge the war has changed” because the variant appears to cause more severe illness, and it spreads as easily as chickenpox, an internal federal health document said, according to The Washington Post.

Dr. Aileen Marty, an infectious diseases expert with Florida International University, said new CDC data shows the average infected person is passing the variant on to six to eight other people. Research shows vaccinated people who got infected carried about the same amount of the virus as those who were not vaccinated.

“If you overwhelm the protection you develop from the vaccine, you are going to get infected, and you are going to have symptoms most likely and you are going to be contagious to others,” Marty said.

Marty said face mask use and vaccines are two of the many preventive measures people need to be taking. She said data shows the vaccinated are still much more protected against severe disease and less likely to catch it.

“Since no single public health measure is 100%; you have to layer your protections,” Marty said.

Coronavirus experts say COVID surge means face mask use is a must in Florida

Coronavirus infections rose 50% this week in Florida with 110,000 new coronavirus cases up from 73,000 last week. COVID hospitalizations are also increasing and the death toll surpassed 39,000 with 409 more this week.

Both Miami-Dade and Broward counties mandated face masks in government buildings. Retailers are making changes. Walmart and Publix announced it’s requiring all employees, regardless of vaccination status, to wear face masks and staff will encourage customers to wear face masks too.

The CDC recommended, “universal indoor masking for all teachers, staff, students, and visitors to K-12 schools, regardless of vaccination status.” In response, Broward County Public Schools mandated the use of face masks starting on the first day of school Aug. 18.

“There is no way in good conscious that I could bring anybody back into a school environment on the bus, the cafeteria, and not have a mask mandate,” said Rosalind Osgood, the School Board of Broward County’s chair. “That is a moral decision.”

Face mask use increases in Miami’s Wynwood neighborhood

Miami-Dade County Public Schools students return to class Aug. 23. DeSantis said he wants to prohibit face mask mandates at public schools in Florida.

“I have (three) young kids. My wife and I are not going to do the mask with the kids. We never have; we won’t. I want to see my kids smiling. I want them having fun,” DeSantis said.

Gelber asked DeSantis to consider the science. In his letter, he added a graph highlighting how hospitalizations plummeted when Miami-Dade County put a mask mandate in place — and how it surged once again when DeSantis banned the measures.

“I just think that the governor has to come to the reality that we are in the midst of a surge that’s unprecedented in the country,” Gelber said. “There is no state doing worse than we are right now.”

Trump administration designates 4 more Chinese media outlets as ‘foreign missions’ – POLITICO
Trump administration designates 4 more Chinese media outlets as ‘foreign missions’ – POLITICO

“The decision to designate these entities is not based on any content produced by these entities, nor does it place any restrictions on what the designated entities may publish in the United States. It simply recognizes them for what they are,” State spokesperson Morgan Ortagus said in a statement.

In February, the Trump administration placed five other outlets, including Xinhua News Agency, under restrictions as it also claimed they served as China’s state propaganda outlets disguised as news agencies. Weeks later, the White House imposed a cap on the number of Chinese citizens who could work in the U.S. for the five outlets.

The Chinese government has not yet responded to the new designations, but it is expected to retaliate again. In March, following the first State announcement, China revoked the press credentials and expelled three reporters from The New York Times, The Washington Post and The Wall Street Journal. It openly acknowledged the move was retaliatory, calling the Trump administration’s restrictions “expulsion in all but name.”

Border at ‘Breaking Point’ as More than 76,000 Migrants Cross in a Month – The New York Times
Border at ‘Breaking Point’ as More than 76,000 Migrants Cross in a Month – The New York Times

The throngs of new families are also affecting communities on the American side of the border. In El Paso, for example, where most of the families are being processed after submitting their asylum applications, a volunteer network that temporarily houses the migrants after they are released from custody has had to expand to 20 facilities, compared with only three during the same period last year. Migrants are now being housed in churches, a converted nursing home and about 125 hotel rooms that are being paid for with donations.

“We had never seen these kinds of numbers,” said Ruben Garcia, the director of the organization, called Annunciation House. He said that during one week in February, immigration authorities had released more than 3,600 migrants to his organization, the highest number in any single week since the group’s founding in 1978.

For the most part, Mr. Garcia said that his staff and volunteer workers had been able to keep up with the surge, often making frantic calls to churches to request access to more space for housing families on short notice. But sometimes their best efforts were upended, he said, including on one day last week, when the authorities dropped off 150 more migrants than originally planned.

“We just didn’t have the space,” Mr. Garcia said.

Border Patrol officials said that the biggest “pull factors” encouraging migrant families to make their way to the United States were federal laws and court settlements that prohibit the authorities from deporting Central Americans without lengthy processing, and from detaining migrant families for more than 20 days, after which they must be released into the country while they await immigration court proceedings. Others at the agency pointed to severe poverty and food insecurity in the Western highlands of Guatemala, where many of the families are from, as a primary motivation.

As of March 3, 237,327 migrants had been apprehended along the southwest border since the fiscal year began in October, a 97 percent increase from the previous year, according to government figures.

The larger numbers and the surge into more remote areas of the border have drawn new attention to longstanding problems with medical services provided by Customs and Border Protection. Migrant families, in particular, tend to arrive in urgent need of medical attention, the agency said, which has strained resources and drawn agents away from their law enforcement duties.

Por primera vez Donald Trump le puso número a la cantidad de inmigrantes indocumentados que va a deportar de Estados Unidos cuando asuma la presidencia.

El presidente electo de Estados Unidos, Donald Trump, dijo este domingo que entre dos y tres millones de inmigrantes indocumentados serán deportados o encarcelados en los primeros días de su gobierno.

En un adelanto del programa 60 Minutes de la cadena CBS, al cual brindó su primera entrevista como presidente electo, Trump explicó que los indocumentados que tengan antecedentes judiciales o sean identificados como pandilleros o traficantes de drogas serán expulsados de EE.UU.

En el fragmento de entrevista publicado, que será emitida completa esta noche a las 7 pm hora local (0:00 GMT), la periodista Lesley Stahl le pregunta a Trump si mantendrá algunas de las principales promesas de campaña, entre ellas la deportación de los inmigrantes indocumentados.

“Lo que vamos a hacer es atrapar a las personas que son criminales y tienen antecedentes criminales, miembros de pandillas, traficantes de drogas, que son muchas personas, probablemente 2 millones, quizá hasta 3 millones, y los vamos a sacar del país o quizá los vamos a encarcelar”, dijo el republicano.

El programa “60 Minutes” de la cadena CBS entrevistó a Donald Trump en su apartamento en Nueva York.

Esta es la primera vez que Trump le pone un número concreto a la cantidad de personas que piensa deportar de EE.UU.

También aclaró que el destino de los otros ocho millones de indocumentados que se estiman viven en el país norteamericano será decidido una vez se “asegure” la frontera sur con México.

“Después de asegurar la frontera (sur) y de que todo se normalice, vamos a determinar qué hacer con esas personas de las que estamos hablando, que son una gente estupenda, pero vamos a tener que tomar una decisión al respecto“, afirmó.

“Pero antes de que tomemos esa decisión, es muy importante que aseguremos nuestra frontera”.

En septiembre Trump había dado un discurso ahondando en las medidas principales de su plan migratorio en donde afirmó que la única opción para todos los indocumentados sin antecedentes será salir de Estados Unidos y realizar el proceso legal estipulado, que ahora será más exigente.

Según el periodista de BBC en Washington DC Anthony Zurcher, si bien Trump afirma que ese primer grupo de deportados estará integrado por criminales, “para alcanzar una cantidad tan elevada será necesario o bien abarcar a las personas con antecedentes por infracciones menores o deportar a los extranjeros con residencia legal con antecedentes penales”.

En cualquier caso, agrega Zurcher, esto implicaría crear una ampliada “fuerza de deportación”, algo que esta misma semana han negado los más allegados aliados políticos de Trump, como el republicano Paul Ryan, actual presidente de la Cámara de Representantes.

Trump dijo además que el muro podría ser reemplazado por una valla en algunas zonas de la frontera con México.

El muro con México

Durante la entrevista, la otra promesa de campaña que Trump dijo que mantendrá es la construcción de un muro en la frontera sur con México, donde ya hay varios tipos de barreras erigidas.

Stahl señaló que hay miembros del Partido Republicano que estarían más de acuerdo con reemplazar el muro con un vallado, a cual Trump respondió que en algunas zonas de la frontera podría funcionar.

Y agregó: “Pero en ciertas áreas es más apropiado un muro. Soy muy bueno en esto, se llama construcción, y podría haber algún vallado”.

La promesa que cambió

Está previsto que Trump asuma la presidencia el 20 de enero de 2017, luego de 8 años de gobierno del demócrata Barack Obama.

El presidente electo contará con mayorías republicanas en ambas cámaras del Congreso.

Donald Trump y Barack Obama ya comenzaron el traspaso de mando de cara al 20 de enero.

Las declaraciones de Trump afirmando que cumplirá con sus promesas de campaña respecto a los inmigrantes indocumentados y el muro llegan 48 horas después de que dijera al diario The Wall Street Journal que estaría dispuesto mantener dos partes del Obamacare porque le “gustan mucho”.

Durante su campaña electoral, Trump dijo que la Ley de Protección al Paciente y Cuidado de Salud Asequible popularmente llamada Obamacare (por haber sido impulsada por el gobierno de Obama) era un “desastre total” y que iba a derogarla y reemplazarla.

También en un adelanto de la entrevista con el programa 60 Minutes Trump desdijo sus declaraciones a The Wall Street Journal afirmando que sí derogará y reemplazará Obamacare, pero que lo hará “simultáneamente”, para que nadie quede sin protección.

Desde que entró en vigor, en octubre de 2013 Obamacare permitió acceder a cobertura sanitaria a unos 20 millones de personas que hasta entonces no disponían de ella, aunque aún quedan unos 24 millones de personas sin seguro.

Aumentos del 100 por ciento para el transporte público – Página 12 (Registro)
Aumentos del 100 por ciento para el transporte público – Página 12 (Registro)

Luego de la suspensión de la conferencia prevista en el Ministerio de Economía, que no pudo realizarse por una protesta de trabajadores despedidos, el ministro de Transporte Guillermo Dietrich presentó los aumentos en las tarifas de trenes y colectivos de la región Metropolitana, a los que denominó como “un acuerdo sectorial del sector de transporte público”.

Dietrich justificó las subas en la supuesta “falta de sustentabilidad del sistema” y en que “ha habido populismo en el manejo de la tarifa del transporte”.

Las nuevas tarifas, que empezarán a regir el viernes 8 de abril, llevarán al boleto mínimo de colectivo de los actuales 3 pesos a seis pesos, es decir un incremento del 100 por ciento. El ministro de Transporte hizo hincapié en que habrá una tarifa social para jubilados y pensionados y beneficiarios de pensiones no contributivas y planes sociales.

Dietrich presentó a la tarifa social de 2,70 pesos como una mejora respecto al actual boleto mínimo de 3 pesos, pero en realidad significa también un aumento porque los beneficiarios de la tarifa diferencial pagaban entre 1,80 y 2,40 pesos para la mayoría de los viajes, según la sección.

En el caso de los trenes, habrá dos tarifas mínimas de 2 y 4 pesos según el ramal, con tarifas sociales de 0,90 centavos o 1,80 pesos. También adelantó que la Ciudad planea llevar en dos meses el boleto de subte a 7,50 pesos, desde los 4,50 actuales.

El funcionario anunció además que en los próximos meses harán “la mayor inversión que se haya hecho en la historia” en los colectivos y prometió “más metrobuses” y una renovación en los vehículos. “No hay ahorro de subsidio. Los subsidios se incrementan 20 por ciento respecto al año pasado, sin tomar en cuenta la inversión en infraestructura que es una obra adicional, para posibilitar la tarifa de 6 pesos y sobre todo la tarifa social”, afirmó Dietrich, quien dijo que sin subsidios el boleto de colectivo debería rondar los 13 pesos.

Minnesota won’t lose eighth congressional seat, Census Bureau rules – Minneapolis Star Tribune
Minnesota won’t lose eighth congressional seat, Census Bureau rules – Minneapolis Star Tribune

Minnesota just barely held onto its eight congressional seats on Monday as the U.S. Census Bureau announced new population totals for the country.

Minnesota grew by slightly under 400,000 people in the last decade, the Census Bureau reported, reaching a total population of 5,709,752 people by April 2020. But with other states especially in the south and west growing faster, Minnesota had been widely expected to lose a congressional seat.

The state held onto its eight seats by the narrowest of margins, Census Acting Director Ron Jarmin said in an online presentation. If the state of New York had counted just 89 more people in the Census, he said, it would have vaulted over Minnesota to get the 435th of 435 House seats allotted.

Minnesota also had the highest Census response rate in the country, at 75%. Experts said that could be a factor in why Minnesota was able to hold onto its eight seats.

“We really had a huge group of people with an interest in making sure we got this right, and that effort paid off, especially given the very small margin that we are seeing,” said Susan Brower, the state demographer. She praised what she called a broad coalition of government and private interests who joined together to promote Census participation.

“There’s a really jubilant feeling among the Census stakeholders today,” Brower said.

Retaining eight seats means Minnesota won’t lose clout in Congress or in the Electoral College. And while the upcoming process of redrawing Minnesota’s eight districts is still certain to be fraught, having to consolidate eight districts into seven would likely have meant a messy political fight with high potential to pit allies against one another.

“You’ll be able to hear the collective sighs of relief from the eight members of Congress across the state,” said Gregg Peppin, a Republican strategist with experience in redistricting.

With a politically divided state Legislature, and the state’s congressional delegation split evenly between Democrats and Republicans, Peppin said incumbents have much less to worry about now. “If I’m an incumbent, I’m thinking the Legislature is going to probably do a ‘least changes’ plan,” he said.

Minnesota has been on the edge of losing one of its seats in the U.S. House for decades. The last time it happened was after the 1960 population count, when the state went from nine seats to eight.

Rep. Betty McCollum, a Democrat and the senior member of Minnesota’s delegation, said in a statement that the news “is a tribute to everyone who worked so hard to get a complete, comprehensive count of Minnesota’s population.”

“The nonprofits, businesses, local government leaders, and citizen activists who promoted the Census deserve credit for this win,” McCollum said.

The final Census numbers were supposed to be released by the end of December, but the data were delayed after the 2020 Census count was plagued with budget constraints, technical difficulties and logistical struggles amid the pandemic.

A decade ago, Minnesota came within about 15,000 people of losing its eighth seat. Initial estimates released last December suggested the state would fall some 25,000 people short of keeping the eighth seat, which left most of the state’s political class all but certain it would happen.

As of the 2020 elections, Democrats and Republicans evenly divide the state’s eight-member House delegation. Democrats hold the seats that cover Minneapolis, St. Paul and a number of their respective inner-ring suburbs; and two suburban-to-exurban districts in the south and west Twin Cities.

Republicans hold three much geographically larger districts that combined cover most of greater Minnesota, and a fourth district that combines parts of the north metro and the St. Cloud area.

The Minnesota Legislature is tasked with redrawing the political boundaries for seats in Congress and the statehouse, but disagreements and divided government have kicked that process to the courts for decades.

That’s likely to happen again this cycle, with Minnesota’s Legislature divided between Republicans and Democrats.

Washington (CNN)The forced resignation of Homeland Security Secretary Kirstjen Nielsen is not just the usual story of an administration racked by chaos and the short shelf life of almost everyone who works for an imperious and grudge-bearing President.

    Maxwell conviction increases scrutiny of other women who worked for Epstein – The Guardian
    Maxwell conviction increases scrutiny of other women who worked for Epstein – The Guardian

    The conviction of Ghislaine Maxwell on sex-trafficking charges this week has increased the scrutiny of others who worked for or socialized with disgraced financier Jeffrey Epstein for years, and their knowledge of the pair’s activities.

    Attention has largely focused on prominent male associates of Epstein, including Prince Andrew, who faces a civil suit brought by Virginia Roberts Giuffre. Giuffre alleges the Queen’s son had sex with her on three occasions two decades ago when, aged 17, she had been sexually trafficked by Jeffrey Epstein, allegations Andrew vehemently denies.

    Four Epstein employees and assistants were described in a 2007 non-prosecution agreement as “potential co-conspirators” when Epstein pleaded guilty to solicitation in Florida in return for a lenient sentence.

    Giuffre has said she hopes Maxwell’s conviction “is not the end but rather another step in justice being served. Maxwell did not act alone. Others must be held accountable.”

    After Epstein’s arrest and suicide in 2019, the US attorney’s office said that it was not bound by the Florida agreement that named the four women – Sarah Kellen, Lesley Groff, Adriana Ross and Nada Marcinkova – and said they could be subject to criminal charges. All have denied involvement or knowledge of the Epstein-Maxwell abuses.

    Maxwell, 60, who was found guilty on Wednesday of facilitating the abuse of underage girls for Epstein, had argued she was covered by the non-prosecution agreement, but her argument was rejected by presiding Judge Alison Nathan.

    Kellen, 41, who is now married to an American race car driver, is the most prominent of the four women, but has claimed she was also a victim of Epstein.

    Kellen was accused by lawyers in legal filings years ago of “bringing girls to Epstein’s mansion to be abused”. Kellen’s name came up in witness testimony during the prosecution phase of Maxwell’s trial, when the government’s key witness, known as “Carolyn”, alleged that Kellen scheduled her sexualized massages with Epstein and paid her $500 to pose for a naked photograph when she was 14 or 15 years old.

    Kellen, who has changed her name, was not called to testify, suggesting she was not cooperating with government prosecutors. Maxwell’s defense team contented that Kellen was among several potential witnesses “who the government could have charged, criminally, based on the testimony we heard”.

    Groff was Epstein’s New York-based assistant for 20 years. Earlier in December, a civil case against Groff brought by Jennifer Araoz, who had accused Epstein of sexually abusing her at his mansion in New York City in 2001 and 2002, was dropped.

    According to Groff’s attorneys, Michael Bachner and Jon Whitcomb, federal prosecutors have no plans to bring charges against her at this time.

    “After a more than two-year investigation by the Department of Justice into Jeffrey Epstein’s conduct, which included lengthy interviews of witnesses and a thorough review of relevant communications, we have been informed that no criminal charges will be brought against Lesley Groff,” Bachner and Whitcomb said in a statement provided to the Guardian.

    Groff’s attorneys added that their client had “never witnessed anything improper or illegal”.

    Groff’s lawyers said that she worked from the Madison Avenue offices, and never stepped foot in Epstein’s personal home. Her duties, they said, included making appointments for Epstein, taking his messages, and setting up high-level meetings with “CEOs, business executives, scientists, politicians, celebrities, charitable organizations and universities” and had “no knowledge and no participation in any of these horrific crimes”.

    Groff “remains heartbroken for Jennifer and all of the victims,” Whitcomb said.

    Ross, a former model from Poland who moved to Florida in 2002, was hired to work at the financier’s mansion. Ross, also known as Adriana Mucinska, often flew on the financier’s private jet, according to flight records.

    Asked during civil litigation about how the Epstein conspiracy operated – and if Prince Andrew had ever been involved with under-age women, Ross repeatedly invoked her fifth amendment rights against self-incrimination.

    Marcinkova is now a pilot and has changed her name.

    According to police records reported by the Guardian in 2015, one alleged victim claimed that she was told Marcinkova had been bought from her parents in eastern Europe by Epstein when she was 15. One alleged that she was made to have sex with Marcinkova and to watch her have sex with Epstein. Marcinkova has since changed her last name.

    Bennett Gershman, a professor of law at Pace University in New York, told the Guardian that he has doubts the government plans to prosecute others.

    “Yes, there are potential new defendants and the government knows that. It’s at the prosecutor’s discretion whether to go forward to prosecute further or whether they feel having convicted Maxwell that’s going to close the book on the prosecution of Epstein and the things Epstein and Maxwell did together.”

    Lindsey Graham fist-bumps Kamala Harris as GOP senators congratulate VP-elect – New York Post
    Lindsey Graham fist-bumps Kamala Harris as GOP senators congratulate VP-elect – New York Post

    Sen. Lindsey Graham on Tuesday fist-bumped Vice President-elect Kamala Harris on the Senate floor as he joined Republican colleagues congratulating her despite President Trump’s refusal to concede the race.

    Harris, a California Democratic senator, extended her fist — rather than the COVID-19 “chicken wing” elbow salutation preferred by current Vice President Mike Pence — as Graham (R-SC) approached her during a vote on a Federal Reserve nominee.

    Graham, a recurrent Trump golfing partner who chairs the Senate Judiciary Committee, bumped fists with Harris as he passed. It’s unclear if they spoke to each other.

    Journalists in the Senate chamber reported hearing many Republican senators congratulate Harris, despite Trump’s insistence that litigation and recounts will earn him a second term.

    “Congratulations,” Republican Sen. James Lankford of Oklahoma told Harris, according to CNN congressional reporter Ali Zaslav.

    Vice President-elect Kamala Harris fist-bumps Sen. Lindsey Graham today.

    Journalists reported hearing Republican Sens. Tim Scott of South Carolina, Mike Rounds of South Dakota and Ben Sasse of Nebraska also congratulate Harris. Many other Republican senators have declined to say if Biden defeated Trump.

    If current vote counts hold, Biden will defeat Trump with 306 Electoral College votes to Trump’s 232 — the same margin as Trump’s 2016 upset over Hillary Clinton.

    “I won the Election!” Trump tweeted on Monday. But a raft of lawsuits and recount efforts have not meaningfully altered vote counts in swing states that broke for Biden, including Arizona, Georgia and Pennsylvania.

    The reason Trump dropped his Florida resort as the next G7 venue is the opposite to the one he tweeted – Business Insider
    The reason Trump dropped his Florida resort as the next G7 venue is the opposite to the one he tweeted – Business Insider
    • US President Donald Trump on Saturday reversed his decision to host the G7 summit at his Trump National Doral Miami resort in Florida.
    • Though he blamed the reversal on Democrats and the media, the switch was actually prompted by irate Republicans, sources told The Washington Post and New York Times.
    • The decision to host the event at the resort, announced last Thursday, prompted accusations of corruption. 
    • Visit Business Insider’s homepage for more stories.

    US President Donald Trump reversed his decision to host the G7 resort at his private golf club after being told that Republicans objected to the idea, an administration official told The Washington Post.

    According to the official, the president spoke to conservative allies by telephone over the weekend and was told that Republicans are struggling to defend him on multiple fronts.

    He later announced that he would not be hosting the summit at his resort in Doral, Florida, contrary to what he said a few days earlier.

    The New York Times also reported that the reversal was prompted by Republican opposition. The outlet said Trump had been told that moderate party lawmakers gathered for a meeting at Camp David could not defend the decision. 

    The report contradicts the explanation for the decision given in tweets by the president Saturday, in which he claimed that he abandoned the plan because of “crazed and irrational” hostility from Democrats and the media.

    Bowing to objections from Republicans would appear to acknowledge that legitimate concerns over the original choice do exist. 

    The White House did not immediately respond to a request for comment on the report. 

    The decision to host the event at the golf course was announced by acting chief of staff Mick Mulvaney at a press conference last week, igniting another controversy for the White House.

    The president is already struggling to battle an impeachment inquiry, and widespread criticism of his decision to withdraw US forces from Syria. 

    The president is reliant on the support of moderate congressional Republicans in the impeachment battle. 

    House Democrats were quick to accuse the president of seeking to corruptly profit from his office after last week’s announcement, and said the decision would form part of their impeachment inquiry. 

    “Once again, Donald Trump is using the office of the presidency and our relationships with some of our closest allies to enrich himself,” said Sen. Sheldon Whitehouse, a Rhode Island Democrat. He backed legislation from Democrats introduced last week to block the move.

    “The founding fathers worried about perks flowing to a corrupt president, but they could have never dreamt of corruption this brazen.”

    Mulvaney, when announcing the venue of the summit last week, said that Trump would make the resort available “at cost” and would not profit.

    Critics said the resort would clearly benefit from the windfall of publicity even if it made no profit on paper.

    A decision to withdraw US troops from Syria and effectively abandon the US’ Kurdish allies has also drawn bipartisan condemnation, including from Republican congressmen such as Senator Lindsey Graham, usually a Trump ally.

    Nuclear talks in doubt as N.Korea tests missiles – AOL
    Nuclear talks in doubt as N.Korea tests missiles – AOL

    SEOUL, July 25 (Reuters) – North Korea test-fired two new short-range missiles on Thursday, South Korean officials said, the first such launch since leader North Korean leader Kim Jong Un and U.S. President Donald Trump agreed to revive stalled denuclearisation talks last month.

    South Korea’s Defence Ministry urged the North to stop acts that are unhelpful to easing tension, saying the tests posed a military threat.

    It was not immediately clear if the missiles used ballistic technology which would be a breach of U.N. Security Council resolutions targeting North Korea’s missile and nuclear weapons programs.

    At least one of the two missiles North Korea test fired on Thursday was a newly developed design and flew some 690 km (428 miles), an official at South Korea’s defense ministry told Reuters, adding that a detailed analysis was being done to verify if the two missiles were the same model. 

    North Korea launched the missiles from the east coast city of Wonsan with one flying about 430 km (267 miles) and the other 690 km (428 miles) over the sea. They both reached an altitude of 50 km (30 miles), an official at South Korea’s Defence Ministry said.

    Some analysts said the North appears to have retested missiles it fired in May, but two South Korean military officials said the missiles appeared to be a new design.

    The launch casts new doubt on efforts to restart denuclearisation talks after Trump and Kim met at the demilitarized zone (DMZ) between the two Koreas at the end of June.

    U.S. Secretary of State Mike Pompeo and North Korean Foreign Minister Ri Yong Ho had been expected to meet on the sidelines of a Southeast Asian security forum in Bangkok next week.

    But a diplomatic source told Reuters on Thursday that Ri had canceled his trip.

    The White House, Pentagon and U.S. State Department did not immediately respond to requests for comment.

    South Korea had detected signs prior to the launch and was conducting detailed analysis with the United States, the presidential Blue House said in a statement.

    Japanese Prime Minister Shinzo Abe said the test had no immediate impact on Japan’s security, according to Kyodo News.

    U.S. National Security Adviser John Bolton, who has taken a hard line towards North Korea, made no mention of the launches in a tweet on Thursday after a visit to South Korea. He said he had “productive meetings” on regional security.

    South Korea’s nuclear envoy, Lee Do-hoon, had phone calls with his U.S. counterpart, Stephen Biegun, and his Japanese counterpart, Kenji Kanasugi, to share their assessment, South Korea’s Foreign Ministry said in a statement.

    Chinese Foreign Ministry spokeswoman Hua Chunying told a briefing that Beijing had noted the launch, calling for North Korea and the United States to reopen negotiations “as early as possible.”




    ‘CLEAR MESSAGE’

    After Trump and Kim met last month, the United States and North Korea vowed to hold a new round of working-level talks soon, but Pyongyang has since sharply criticized upcoming joint military drills by U.S. and South Korean troops.

    North Korea’s Foreign Ministry accused Washington this month of breaking a promise by holding military exercises with South Korea. On Tuesday, Kim inspected a large, newly built submarine from which ballistic missiles could be launched.

    “By firing missiles, taking issue with military drills and showing a new submarine, the North is sending one clear message: there might be no working-level talks if the United States doesn’t present a more flexible stance,” said Kim Hong-kyun, a former South Korean nuclear envoy.

    Kim Dong-yup, a former navy officer who now teaches at Kyungnam University in Seoul, said the weapons tested on Thursday appeared to be the same as the ones tested in May, which were less of a challenge than long-range missiles but “enough to subtly pressure” Washington.

    But the South Korean military believes they may be new, because they traveled further. In May, the projectiles flew only 420 km (260 miles) and 270 km (168 miles) though they reached the same altitude of about 50 km (30 miles).

    “We’re very cautious because it’s difficult to extend the range within such a short time,” said one military official, who asked not to be named due to the sensitivity of the issue.

    Nuclear talks between North Korea and the United States stalled after a second summit between Trump and Kim in Vietnam in February broke down.

    Trump has repeatedly lauded the North’s freeze in weapons testing as he is keen for a big foreign policy win as he campaigns for re-election in 2020.

    Among 2020 Democrats, a debate over ‘Medicare-for-all’ – AOL
    Among 2020 Democrats, a debate over ‘Medicare-for-all’ – AOL

    WASHINGTON (AP) — “Medicare-for-all” is quickly becoming a rallying cry for many Democratic White House hopefuls, but there are growing questions about how to pull off such a dramatic switch to a government-run health care system.

    The debate over scrapping private insurers has heated up in recent days since Democratic Sen. Kamala Harris of California, a supporter of “Medicare-for-all,” told CNN’s Jake Tapper, “Who of us has not had that situation, where you’ve got to wait for approval, and the doctor says, well, I don’t know if your insurance company is going to cover this? Let’s eliminate all of that. Let’s move on.”

    But since her nationally televised remarks, several of Harris’ rivals have pointedly spoken about their plans to work toward universal health care in more pragmatic, incremental ways. Those Democrats portray the single-payer health care proposal they’ve backed as only one strategy to achieve universal coverage, while emphasizing the importance of other, less sweeping paths.

    Among the skeptics, former New York Mayor Michael Bloomberg has said “Medicare-for-all” would “bankrupt for us for a very long time.”

    Uniting Democrats is a desire to guarantee coverage for all, including an estimated 29 million people who remain uninsured. Some are backing a plan that would let people buy into Medicare, with tax credits from the Obama-era Affordable Care Act.

    At the forefront of the debate is Vermont independent Sen. Bernie Sanders’ ‘Medicare-for-all” bill, which holds out the promise of health care as a right, the potential for national savings from reduced administrative costs and government price-setting, and no more copays, deductibles or surprise medical bills. His plan envisions a four-year transition, phasing in the change by age groups. Simultaneously, some big tax increases would be taking effect.

    Senator Elizabeth Warren, a Democrat from Massachusetts, left, listens as Senator Bernie Sanders, an independent from Vermont, speaks during a health care bill news conference on Capitol Hill in Washington, D.C., U.S., on Wednesday, Sept. 13, 2017. Fifteen Senate Democrats are flirting with a single-payer health-care system that would expand Medicare coverage to all Americans, marking a shift within the party on what was once viewed as a politically treacherous issue that attracted little support from lawmakers.

    But there would be enormous challenges to put in place a single-payer health insurance with the government fully in control of the $3.5 trillion U.S. health care system, experts say. And polls show a looming political problem because many people don’t yet realize it would mean giving up their private coverage. Another issue: Sanders’ office says his plan would cover abortion, a major change from current federal laws and policies.

    In addition to Harris, Democratic Senators Cory Booker of New Jersey, Kirsten Gillibrand of New York, and Elizabeth Warren of Massachusetts have signed onto the Sanders bill.

    Gillibrand, who crafted language in Sanders’ bill that allows people to buy nonprofit insurance coverage during the transition, emphasized the importance of that bridge.

    “If more people buy into Medicare over whatever your transition period is, you will disrupt the insurance market . because you’ve created more competition for lower prices and quality care,” Gillibrand told The Associated Press.

    “What I like about where the Democrats are today is, we have four or five versions of ‘Medicare-for-all’,” she added. “I think we all want to get to single payer. And I think the best way to do it is what I wrote in Sen. Sanders’ bill.”

    Booker, who declared his own candidacy on Friday, told a satellite radio show that day that he is “a big believer in ‘Medicare-for all’- but I believe that if we give people a quality public option, we’re going to be able to get more people into the system.”

    And Warren, for her part, told Bloomberg TV last week that “multiple bills on the floor in the United States Senate” would accomplish her core priority of ensuring that “every American has health care at a price they can afford.”

    Sens. Amy Klobuchar of Minnesota and Sherrod Brown of Ohio also describe universal health care as an ultimate goal, but neither has signed onto Sanders’ legislation. Brown has called for the expansion of Medicare to those over 50 as a more workable first step, while Klobuchar said in a recent interview that “on health care, there’s a lot more that unites us in the Democratic Party.”

    “One, we do not want to repeal” Obamacare, she added. “Two, we want to expand Medicaid . three, we want to improve on that as well as get to universal coverage.”

    Others are less sanguine about a single-payer approach. “We can’t pay for it, it eliminates choices, most versions…would make private health care coverage for almost all health care needs illegal, and it will diminish quality and access,” said former Maryland Rep. John Delaney.

    Among non-candidates, Kathleen Sebelius, former Health and Human Services secretary under President Barack Obama, said Democrats should debate a full range of options.

    “I think this is a great opportunity to put plans on the table and hopefully not have an early litmus test that says we only want to talk about one idea,” said Sebelius. “I want to talk about 15 ideas.”

    A long-time supporter of single-payer said Democrats should tread carefully. Now retired from political office, former Democratic congressman Jim McDermott of Washington said, “A single-payer system would be best if we had a magic wand, but in the real world it is going to be extraordinarily difficult to make this change.”

    The last industrialized nation to transition to a single-payer system was Taiwan in 1995. Princeton health policy analyst Tsung-Mei Cheng, who studied the Taiwan experience, said she believes the Democratic candidates are doing poorly explaining pros and cons.

    “I don’t think that the full information that would really help voters is out there,” she said. “You need to offer more specifics, and first of all about financing.”

    President Biden tests positive for COVID again, will return to isolation – CBS News
    President Biden tests positive for COVID again, will return to isolation – CBS News

    President Joe Biden has tested positive for COVID-19 again, just days after he recovered from his previous case of the virus, the White House physician said in a statement Saturday. He is not experiencing any symptoms but will self-isolate again. 

    In a tweet, the president said he is “still at work” but isolating “for the safety of everyone around me.” He will not go on his upcoming trips to Wilmington, Delaware, or Michigan, the White House said.

    Later Saturday afternoon, the president proved his point — sharing a photo of himself masked up and signing a document that will add individual assistance to the major disaster declaration he approved after Kentucky suffered deadly and damaging flooding. He also shared a video of himself at the White House with his dog, Commander.

    A photo was also posted to Mr. Biden’s Instagram account Saturday evening showing him using his phone to FaceTime with “families fighting to pass burn pits legislation.” 

    That is in reference to a bill, which failed to advance in the Senate this week, which would provide benefits to an estimated 3.5 million veterans exposed to toxic burns in the Afghanistan and Iraq wars.

    The president, who is vaccinated and double boosted, feels “quite well” and his physician, Col. Kevin O’Connor, said he will not begin any sort of treatment at this time. 

    Mr. Biden is experiencing what O’Connor called “‘rebound’ positivity,” which can happen to a small percentage of patients who are treated with the drug Paxlovid. 

    Mr. Biden was first diagnosed with COVID less than two weeks ago. The president, who is 79 years old, entered isolation and started taking Paxlovid, an antiviral treatment made by Pfizer, White House press secretary Karine Jean-Pierre said in a statement announcing his diagnosis. He experienced only mild symptoms.

    After five days, Mr. Biden tested negative Tuesday evening, and ended his isolation period. He subsequently tested negative on Wednesday, Thursday and Friday, his doctor said. However, an antigen test came back positive Saturday morning.

    His positive test nine days ago was the first known time Mr. Biden has contracted the coronavirus.

    Vice President Kamala Harris tested negative for COVID on Friday, her spokesperson Kirsten Allen said. Meanwhile, first lady Dr. Jill Biden, who has been staying at the couple’s Delaware home since her husband first tested positive, also remains negative, according to communication director Elizabeth Alexander.

    Back in May, the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention warned of potential “COVID-19 rebound” after a five-day course of Paxlovid. 

    “If you take Paxlovid, you might get symptoms again,” CDC director Dr. Rochelle Walensky told CBS News. “We haven’t yet seen anybody who has returned with symptoms needing to go to the hospital. So, generally, a milder course.”

    After a patient recovers, a rebound has been reported to occur two to eight days later. Still, the CDC says the benefits of taking Paxlovid far outweigh the risks. Among unvaccinated people at high risk for severe disease, it reduced the risk of hospitalization and death by nearly 90%, according to the CDC. 

    At the time, Pfizer said it was seeing a rebound rate of about 2%, but was continuing to monitor patients.

    White House COVID-19 coordinator Dr. Ashish Jha told reporters on Monday that data “suggests that between 5 and 8% of people have rebound” after Paxlovid treatment.
