== 'Hug tent' provides safe embraces at Colorado assisted living center

The tents, also called ‘cuddle curtains,’ have been popping up around the US and abroad==

 

Lynda Hartman needed a hug.

 

It had been at least eight months since she touched her 77-year-old husband, Len, who has dementia and has been at an assisted living center in suburban Denver for the last year.

 

On Wednesday, she got a small taste of what life was like before the coronavirus pandemic.

California's Newsom met online with Harry, Meghan just before US electionThe Democrat's office refused to reveal what was discussed in the chat. It was listed as an "introductory meeting"

 

A spokesman said: "We do not comment on the content of meetings between the Governor and private parties or his staff."

 

"Your voice is a reminder that you matter. Because you do. And you deserve to be heard."

 

In the same interview, Harry raised royal eyebrows by saying: "As we approach this November, it’s vital we reject hate speech, misinformation and online negativity."

 

The meeting came as reports in America claimed Governor Newsom was being urged to find a black woman to replace Harris as her departure left no women of colour in the Senate.

 

He eventually chose Mexican immigrants’ son Alex Padilla as the state’s first Hispanic senator.

 

It has long been rumoured Meghan wants a career in politics, with some suggesting she has even set her sights on being President.

 

It came weeks after Meg described the battle between Donald Trump and Joe Biden as "the most important election of our lifetime".

 

She added: "When we vote, our values are put into action and our voices are heard.

 

Crossing a line

Members of the Royal Family are supposed to remain politically neutral but Harry and Meghan have stepped down as senior royals to find a "progressive role" in the US.

 

Their comments were widely regarded as an attack on then-President Trump.

 

At the time, it was reported that Buckingham Palace aides warned that the pair were close to "crossing a line".

 

Under Megxit terms struck 12 months ago, the pair pledged that "everything they do will continue to uphold ­values of Her Majesty".

 

Mr Trump responded to Meghan’s comments by saying: "I’m not a fan of hers. I wish a lot of luck to Harry, because he’s going to need it."

 

Meghan had also revealed she had been cold-calling Americans to encourage them to vote.

 

She became the first member of the Royal Family to vote in a major election after casting a postal ballot in November’s US presidential election.

150 PEOPLE WERE SHOT IN CHICAGO SINCE ILLINOIS SENT THE NATIONAL GUARD TO D.C.fter shooting deaths shot up 75% in Chicago, Governor Pritzker announced that he was dispatching 500 more National Guard troops to fight “the dark forces of racism” in D.C.

 

Washington D.C. may be suffering from “the dark forces of racism” since it’s currently in the hands of the party of racism, slavery, and segregation, but those National Guard troops would do a lot more good in Chicago where 81%, the majority of shooting victims, are black.

 

After the billionaire governor took a break from working on his Wisconsin mansion to dispatch 200 National Guard troops to protect Joe Biden from being attacked during the inauguration, 29 murders were perpetrated in Chicago. There was nothing for the Illinois National Guard to do in D.C. where the biggest threat to Joe Biden’s safety remains pulling a dog’s tail in the shower, but deploying those troops could have been used to save lives back home in Chicago.

 

D.C. does not need the National Guard for anything except political theater. If Governor Pritzker wants to protect Joe Biden, he doesn’t need hundreds of soldiers, he just needs a good nurse.

 

And maybe a dog trainer.

 

“We must root out the dark forces of racism,” Governor Pritzker declared, and, “disinformation”.

 

Soldiers don’t root out “disinformation”. Except maybe in China, Cuba, and apparently, Chicago.

Michigan House passes COVID-19 recovery plan, would also limit Whitmer's powersThe Michigan House on Thursday approved a $3.5 billion bill that would make $2.1 billion in federal education funding contingent on Gov. Gretchen Whitmer relinquishing her power to shut down schools to local health departments.

 

The Republican’s COVID-19 recovery plan includes $33 million for vaccine distribution and $144 million for COVID-19 testing, allocated quarterly.

 

The $3.5 billion plan is $2.1 billion less than Whitmer’s proposed plan, and is divided as follows:

 

$415 million would flow to restaurants and other businesses targeted by Whitmer’s shutdown orders

$38.5 million would reimburse liquor license and health department fees

$150 million deposit into the unemployment trust fund to ensure benefits for unemployed workers

$55 million to help Michigan job providers currently facing higher unemployment

$22 million to assist job providers facing penalties and interest on 2020 summer or winter property taxes

$165 million to help families with rent and utility relief

$510 million for Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program benefits

A $2.1 billion education plan is contingent upon Whitmer enacting a law upon which authority to close in-person learning and sports activities is transferred from Whitmer’s administration to local health departments. However, lawmakers would set COVID-19 benchmarks that would limit the power of health departments.

DC firefighter crawls into storm drain to rescue doghe dog, named Brady, was stuck in the drain, which was about 2 feet in diameter, The Washington Post reported. The firefighter chosen to retrieve the Lab, Matt Owen of D.C. Rescue Squad 2, was the slimmest member of the rescue squad, the newspaper reported.

 

Fire Department spokesperson Vito Maggiolo said that more than a half dozen rescuers worked to get Brady out of the drain, WUSA reported.

 

Brady’s owner thought the dog had been in the drain for several hours before the fire department was notified about 7:40 p.m., Maggiolo said. The drain is about 100 yards into the woods, the Post reported.

The dog’s barking tipped the rescue squad to the animal’s whereabouts, the newspaper reported.

Water was flowing in the pipe and Owen crawled about 40 feet into it, Maggiolo told the Post. Video posted by the fire department showed Brady splashing out of the pipe, tail wagging.

“I think the dog was ready to come out,” Maggiolo told the newspaper.

A Tesla driver’s dashboard camera captured a shocking "smash and grab" robberyin broad daylight in San Francisco on Friday. The video shows multiple cars stalled in traffic, waiting to enter eastbound Interstate 80 to cross the bay to Oakland.

 

Suddenly, an occupant of a black car leaps out of the vehicle – then smashes the rear window of another car and removes what appears to be a black bag.

 

Then the suspect – dressed in a dark hoodie and dark pants, with his back to the camera – hops back into the black car, whose driver hits the gas pedal and speeds away down 8th Street, away from the traffic backup.

 

Two people are seen getting out of the victimized car – but it is too late to stop the suspect. The video ends there.

 

The clip of the brazen crime was posted by a Twitter user named "Alex," who simply writes: "Highway robbery in SF – caught on my TeslaCam."

 

Alex said he spoke with the victims, who claimed they were real estate photographers and were being followed since leaving a photo shoot a short time earlier, San Francisco's KPIX-TV reported.

 

In a separate post, Alex refers his Twitter followers to a crowdfunding page that he claims is intended to raise money for the victims.
