Mexico, India, Ireland, Norway elected to UN Security Council

One seat on the council remains open.

Mexico, India, Ireland and Norway were elected to the United Nations Security Council on Wednesday, but the 193 UN member states must return on Thursday to continue voting to fill one more vacant seat after there was no clear winner.

Canada lost out to Ireland and Norway in a hotly contested election that included Ireland enlisting the help of U2 singer Bono and taking UN ambassadors to a U2 concert and Canada taking envoys to a Celine Dion concert.

Mexico and India were elected unopposed. Kenya and Djibouti were competing for the final seat, but there was no clear winner.

To ensure geographical representation, seats are allocated to regional groups. But even if candidates are running unopposed in their group, they still need to win the support of more than two thirds of the UN General Assembly.

The new members will start their two-year term on the 15-member council on Jan. 1.

After operating virtually since March amid the coronavirus pandemic, diplomats - wearing masks and social distancing - returned to the General Assembly hall on Wednesday to cast their secret ballots at allotted times.

They also elected - unopposed - Turkish diplomat Volkan Bozkir as the president of the 75th session of the UN General Assembly. He will take up the role later this year.

The Security Council is the only UN body that can make legally binding decisions like imposing sanctions and authorizing the use of force. It has five permanent veto-wielding members - the United States, Britain, France, China and Russia.

CHAZ Demands 'Race-Based' Healthcare, Which Is Illegal in the U.S.

The Capitol Hill Autonomous Zone has made a lot of incoherent demands since they took over the city of Seattle, but their demand for “race-based’ healthcare might be the most laughable.

They don’t just want more blacks as doctors and nurses. They want those black doctors and nurses to only treat black people.

This is illegal in so many ways it’s hard to count.

Newsweek:

Race-based health care, while having gained support, presents legal and practical challenges to implementation. Proponents say it’s one way to start closing disparities in health care, but it could take years and require changes to the education system to fill the shortage of black doctors, and CHAZ’s demand that black doctors be employed for the specific purposes of treating black patients isn’t quite legally sound.

“Isn’t quite legally sound”? Newsweek is being kind. It’s idiotic and people who advocate such nonsense need help.

If black people want a black doctor, that should be their choice. But we should gently point out that the human body is pretty much the same whether you’re white or black or some other color.

It’s true that blacks are susceptible to some diseases that whites aren’t. But anyone who paid attention in medical school knows this to be true and doesn’t need a handbook on exotic diseases to figure it out.

The question of medical outcomes relating to race is a question of quality of care, not skin color.

However, patients are within their legal right to choose their doctor and physicians and researchers support increasing opportunities for black patients to see black doctors. It’s not a new concept and data shows there’s merit to racial concordance between doctors and patients. Black people are more likely than white people to die at an early age from chronic conditions such as heart disease, stroke and diabetes, in part, because they aren’t being screened and treated, according to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention.

Whether it’s because blacks feel more comfortable talking about their health with a black doctor is unclear. But there is apparently a correlation between the race of a doctor and better health outcomes.

A 2018 National Bureau of Economic Research random clinical trial in Oakland, California, found black patients who saw black doctors were more likely to pursue diabetes and cholesterol screenings than those who saw non-black doctors. Based on the Oakland study’s findings, researchers estimated black doctors could reduce the black-white gap in cardiovascular-related deaths by about 19 percent.

So do we force black patients to see black doctors? Do we prevent white patients from seeing black doctors? We need more doctors regardless of color but recruiting black medical students is already being done. There is a legal obligation of medical schools to diversify their student bodies — and they’re still having trouble filling positions.

Wanting to be a doctor demands an interest in science, as well as anatomy, chemistry, and other scientific disciplines. It’s not happening in our public schools now. STEM studies are out of favor. Until there is more interest by black students in wanting to be doctors, CHAZ will be very disappointed.

Florida Man Says He Sent Photos of His Penis To 10-Year-Old Girl “To Be Nice”

The Polk County Sheriff’s Office arrested a Lake Wales man on Tuesday, June 16, 2020, after an investigation showed that he manipulated, threatened, and extorted a 10-year-old girl into sending him nude images of herself.

19-year-old Simon “Pete” Anderson used the social-media platform Facebook to communicate with the victim, and he admitted to knowing that the girl was only 10-years-old.

The investigation began on April 30th when a parent of another child was told that Anderson was sending the girl photos of his penis.

During a forensic interview with the victim, she revealed that Anderson (whose Facebook account used the name Pete Anderson), had sent her inappropriate messages and pictures of his penis.

The PCSO Computer Crimes Unit searched the victim’s cell phone and discovered multiple messages and images that had been sent from Anderson’s Facebook account.

The messages on the phone revealed Anderson’s aggressive efforts with the victim. He tried coercing her into sending him nude pictures of herself by threatening to report her to law enforcement, as well as threatening to kill her and himself if she didn’t comply. The girl admitted to sending Anderson photos because she was in fear of his threats.

When a PCSO detective from the Special Victims Unit interviewed Anderson, he admitted that he sent her images of his penis. He told the detective that they were “kind of in a relationship, but not really.” He claimed that he didn’t want to send her the photos of his penis, but he did so, Simon Anderson mugshot“to be nice.”

Sheriff Grady Judd said, “As a parent, this kind of a story has got to break your heart, scare you, and make you angry, all at the same time. Sick creeps like this are out there folks…going after innocent children. This is exactly why I say that parents need to be all-up in their child’s business. You need to monitor who they’re communicating with online.”

Simon Anderson was arrested and transported to the Polk County Jail. He was charged with Extortion (F2), Possession of Child Pornography (F3), 3-counts of Transmitting Material Harmful to a Child (F3), and Aggravated Cyberstalking (F3).

The investigation is ongoing. Anderson’s electronic storage devices were collected, and they will be searched. Any additional evidence found on those devices could lead to additional charges.

U.S.-led Coalition Warplanes Conduct Simulated Attack Near Syria’s Al-Tanaf

U.S.-led coalition warplanes had conducted a simulated attack run in the 55 km zone around al-Tanaf Garrison, the coalition’s Special Ops Joint Task Force announced on June 16.

In an official statement, the coalition said the simulated attack run was conducted by F-15E Strike Eagle fighter jets on June 13.

“Coalition air assets provide immediate threat response in support of our Syrian partners as they continue the disruption of Daesh terrorist cells,” the statement reads.

Photos of the simulated attack showed several F-15Es armed with air-to-air missiles and guided bombs flying over the 55 km zone.

The U.S.-led coalition and its proxy, the Revolutionary Commando Army, hold drills in the 55 km zone on a regular basis. On April 29, live drills were carried out in the region with the participation of the coalition’s M142 High Mobility Artillery Rocket System (HIMARS).

The coalition claims that these drills are aimed against ISIS remnants around al-Tanaf. Nevertheless, they appear to be designed to intimidate Damascus and its allies.

"Pure Coincidence" - Ford To Unveil New Bronco On O.J. Simpson's Birthday

Ford has picked a rather unusual day to debut the new Bronco SUV – July 9, which is O.J. Simpson's 73rd birthday.

The former football star was infamously involved in a 1994 slow-speed police chase in a white 1993 Bronco on the Los Angeles freeway (the chase was viewed on national TV by tens of millions of people), following the slayings of ex-wife Nicole Brown Simpson and her friend, Ronald Goldman. He was acquitted of the murders the following year.

Ford spokesman Mike Levine told NBC News that the new Bronco's debut is "a pure coincidence."

Ford was expected to unveil the SUV earlier this year but was canceled because of the virus pandemic.

The Bronco was dropped in 1996, two years after the police chase, and Ford then introduced the Explorer line of SUVs.

Simpson is a big fan of tweeting. He usually records selfies of himself talking about politics and or sports while on the golf course – has yet to respond to the debut of the Bronco on his birthday.

Here's how Twitter users reacted:
