Chin had been feeling cautious even before Lee was murdered. He told me a story about how, in late January, he had encountered an unhoused man who he said was defacing a mural outside his building. “I was chasing him off. He turns around, and he was like, ‘Frick you, chink.’ And then pulls out a can of pepper spray and sprays me right in the eyes,” he said. “That shit burned — I was just a roaring man. He seemed terrified, like, Oh God, it’s not working. At that point, I chased him down in the subway and then shot him in the back of the neck with a taser.”

:marseygigachad:

I was taken aback. “Wait, so do you carry a taser around with you?” I said.

“Oh yeah. Absolutely,” said Chin. “I actually recommend you carry one as well.” The man fell down the stairs when Chin tased him before running off. According to Chin, there happened to be a couple of NYPD officers in the station: “They said they couldn’t find him. He escaped into the subway.”

Chin characterized this incident — the man calling him a chink and hitting him with the pepper spray — as a hate crime. “Everyone’s terrified out of their minds now because we’re seeing stuff like this,” he said. “I think the collective sense is that criminals are being protected more than citizens at the moment.” Lee’s murder served to galvanize that conviction

In an interview with Fox News on Monday, West Virginia Democratic Sen. Joe Manchin expressed surprise the GOP is whipping against his energy permitting bill, which is to be included in the continuing resolution to avert a government shutdown.

For some, it goes maybe too far for others.

We just have we have agreement to disagree on that.

"What I didn't expect is that Mitch McConnell, my Republican friends would be signing up with Bernie or trying to get the same outcome by not passing permitting reform."

In this aerial image, the city of Tampa, Fla., is seen Monday, Sept. 26, 2022.

It's been more than a century since a major storm like Ian has struck the Tampa Bay area, which blossomed from a few hundred thousand people in 1921 to more than 3 million today. (

The adjacent Gulf of Mexico is also shallow.

ADVERTISEMENT McNoldy, the University of Miami researcher, noted that Hurricane Andrew’s storm surge today would be 7 inches (17 centimeters) higher than it was when that storm pounded South Florida 30 years ago.

“As sea level rises, the same storm surge will be able to flood more areas because the baseline upon which it’s happening is higher,” McNoldy said.

Mitch McConnell praised Kyrsten Sinema in introductory remarks before her speech at the University of Louisville.

"I've only known Kyrsten for four years, but she is, in my view — and I've told her this — the most effective first-term senator I've seen in my time in the Senate," the Republican leader said. "

She is, today, what we have too few of in the Democratic Party: a genuine moderate, and a dealmaker."

Throughout her speech, Sinema stressed the importance of bipartisan dealmaking, touted her efforts on bipartisan legislation, and defended her approach to maintaining the Senate filibuster.

But I've never really wanted to fit in, not in Washington, and not anywhere else.

A new poll commissioned by the AARP this month found that a majority of Arizona voters on both sides of the political aisle — 54% — view Sinema unfavorably.

Yusov added that Russia has run out of people who could be called up in the temporarily occupied territories of Donetsk and Luhansk oblasts.

During his first speech at the General Assembly as the President of Colombia, Gustavo Petro said that the world's addiction to money, oil and carbon is destroying the rainforest and its people under the excuse of a "Hypocritical" war against drugs.

Mr. Petro highlighted that while the developed world let the rainforest burn as an excuse for the war against drugs, it also asked for more oil, "To calm their other addiction" to consumption, power and money.

Mr. Petro then demanded, speaking in the name of all of Latin-America, the end of the "Irrational war against drugs".

The Treasury also attempted to calm market fears by outlining when it is to provide detail on its growth plan.

Advertisement The pound plunged below its all-time low against the dollar - set in February 1985 - of $1.054 early on Monday in Asian trading, fuelling fears that parity was possible ahead.

A low pound will make importing goods in dollars more expensive, which will be passed to consumers.

Shadow chancellor Rachel Reeves said at Labour's party conference: "We are facing a national emergency.

Asked whether he was nervous about the dropping pound, falling stock markets and the rising cost of government borrowing, Mr Kwarteng said: "We've got to have a much more front-footed approach to growth and that's what my Friday statement was all about.

committee members Schiff and Cheney spoke about the Capitol riot investigation on Sunday.

Two of the most senior members of the House Jan. 6 committee said they believe Donald Trump committed wrongdoing in relation to the riot, but said that the committee will act unanimously when it decides whether or not to refer the former president for prosecution.

Rep. Adam Schiff, a Democratic member of the committee; and Rep. Liz Cheney, a Republican, discussed the investigation in separate interviews over the weekend.

"I do agree there have been several laws broken and it is, I think, apparent that there is evidence that Donald Trump was involved in breaking several of those laws," Schiff continued.

"I think we will be unanimous," she said. "

When the committee concludes its investigation, which was launched more than a year ago, it will decide whether or not to refer Trump for prosecution by the Justice Department.
