Before liberals cheered Fulton County jail booking of Trump, they decried its deplorable conditions

Three inmates in the month of August were found unresponsive in cells before being pronounced dead.

Before liberals cheered Donald Trump‘s booking at the Fulton County Jail this month, they were decrying the facility’s deplorable conditions that have led to numerous deaths and an ongoing federal civil rights investigation.

The Fulton County Sheriff’s Office in Atlanta announced last week that a 66-year-old inmate named Alexander Hawkins was found unresponsive in a medical unit cell before being pronounced dead.

"Medical personnel were unsuccessful at attempts to revive Hawkins and he died," the sheriff’s department said.

It was the third death this month in the jail and the seventh since the beginning of the year, according to The Atlanta-Journal Constitution.

Two other inmates who passed away this month include Christopher Smith and Montay Stinson. Smith was found unresponsive in a medical unit cell on Aug. 10 and passed away at a hospital on Aug. 11.

Stinson was also found unresponsive in his cell on July 31, at around 11:45 p.m. According to a release from the sheriff's department, he was found with "no obvious signs of injury."

US Navy vows to counter China’s ‘aggressive behavior’ – media

An American vice admiral has reportedly called for pushing back against Beijing in the South China Sea

The commander of the US Navy’s largest forward-deployed fleet has reportedly responded to a recent confrontation between Chinese and Philippine ships in the South China Sea by pledging to push back against the alleged aggression of Beijing’s forces in the region.

Vice Admiral Karl Thomas, commander of the US Seventh Fleet, on Sunday assured the Philippines of Washington’s backing in countering China’s “aggressive behavior,” Reuters reported. “My forces are out here for a reason,” he said, citing the “shared challenges” faced by the US and its Philippine ally.

Thomas made his comments about three weeks after an incident in which the Chinese Coast Guard deployed water cannon against Philippine vessels that were trying to resupply a warship that Manila had intentionally grounded on a contested South China Sea shoal in 1999. The resupply mission was finally completed on Tuesday, delivering food and other goods to troops stationed on the World War II-era ‘Sierra Madre’ transport ship.
