“I’m putting in three but I’m not ballot harvesting,” the man said. “I voted no three times,” the man added, referring to the California gubernatorial recall election. “No” represents a vote against the recall of Gavin Newsom — thus, the man voted for Newsom three times, according to his statement.

(CNN)President Joe Biden on Thursday will impose more stringent vaccine rules on federal workers, and take steps to encourage private businesses to do the same, during a major speech meant to lay out a new approach to combating the coronavirus.
Among the steps that the President will take is signing an executive order requiring all federal workers to be vaccinated, with no option of being regularly tested to opt out of the requirement, according to a source familiar with the plans. The President will also sign an executive order directing that same standard be extended to employees of contractors who do business with the federal government. The Department of Defense, the Department of Veterans Affairs, Indian Health Service and National Institute of Health will also complete their previously announced vaccination requirements, which the White House estimates covers 2.5 million people. That is a significant move beyond the one Biden announced earlier this summer that required federal workers be vaccinated but allowed for those who opted out to be subject to stringent mitigation measures. The White House has said the federal government should act as a model for other businesses in their own vaccine mandates, and has praised large companies that require employees to be vaccinated. Biden on Thursday also plans to announce a major expansion to free testing, a step public health officials have said is critical to containing the virus, particularly as children return to school and some workers return to offices. And he will address the confusion over booster shots, though will not make any new announcements on when additional doses will be authorized for Americans. This is a breaking story and will be updated.
A New York town’s deputy mayor is facing state and federal charges after authorities say they found unregistered firearms, fake FBI badges and other fraudulent identification cards during a raid of his home last week.
According to a criminal complaint unsealed Tuesday in the U.S. District Court for the Southern District of New York, 47-year-old Brian Downey, the deputy mayor of Airmont, N.Y., allegedly had more than a dozen firearms displayed on a black wall in his basement, including ones which were “not registered to him in the National Firearms Registration and Transfer Record.”
Additionally, federal authorities alleged that Downey “possessed badges, identification cards, and other insignia, of the design prescribed by the head of a department or agency of the United States for use by officers or employees thereof.”
ADVERTISEMENT An image included in the complaint showed several law enforcement badges and ID cards, including some purporting to be official FBI badges.
The deputy mayor of the town located about 35 miles north of New York City also has been also charged by local authorities. The charges include criminal possession of 10 or more unregistered firearms, as well as counts related to the possession of 16 assault weapons and 13 firearm silencers.
North Philadelphia high school requiring students to be vaccinated by Monday

Published 12 hours ago
PHILADELPHIA - Students at Cristo Rey Philadelphia High School have already begun classes this week and the school is reporting 100 percent of its teachers are vaccinated, but now the school is requiring the same of its students by Monday, Aug. 30.
Many parents reached out to FOX 29 outraged and upset.
"We’re being forced to take the shot that we’re still not comfortable with," said Tiffany Negron, a parent of a senior at Cristo Rey.
Negron and her husband say she and several dozen other parents received a letter in the mail from Cristo Rey detailing their new policy.
"This [past] Wednesday we received a letter stating that if our kids are not vaccinated by Monday, they have to leave the school," said Negron.
FOX 29 contacted the school and administrators say letters went out in June encouraging vaccinations ahead of the new school year, but the principal says due to the rise of the Delta variant, the recommendation turned into a requirement. The school says its policy changed on Aug. 11.
Parents say they feel as if they’re now left with no options for their children.
"What school can we apply for? All the deadlines are closed," said Season Starr, a parent of a senior at Cristo Rey.
Another parent says she wishes the school would offer alternatives instead of forcing them to make a quick decision.
"Even if I wanted to think about it, there’s no time to think about it. There’s no time for anything except just do what they said which is get my child vaccinated," said Shelley Alston, a grandparent of a student at Cristo Rey.
FOX29 reached out to Cristo Rey for comment and they released a statement that reads in part,
"Today, 100% of the faculty and staff are vaccinated and more than 75% of the student body has received at least one vaccine dose. We are proud of our vaccination rate today, but we know we must reach 100% fully-vaccinated, considering qualified exemptions, to mitigate risk and keep our students as safe as possible and in school." - Dr. Flannery O’Connor, Principal
The principal noted that if families arrive on Monday, Aug. 30 and decide they will vaccinate their child, they will still be allowed to attend classes. If students and families choose not to receive that first dose by then, school leaders say they won’t be allowed inside the building.

CHICAGO - A South Side community is coming together to remember a Chicago leader and friend of President Barack Obama.
Johnnie Owens, 65, was killed in a south suburban attack.
Owens was a Husband and father of six children — four of which he and his wife adopted. He was also longtime friend of President Obama and loved educating the community on healthy eating.
Community organizing and development was Owens greatest passion. He created a community garden near 42nd Street and Calumet Avenue nearly six years ago.
An advocate for healthy eating, he would hold cooking demonstrations, train volunteers and give fresh produce to residents.
Owens was shot and killed inside his Hazel Crest home last Tuesday. His family says they believe it was out of retaliation after one of Owens’ sons testified against a shooting suspect three years ago.
The family says the shooter entered their home early Tuesday morning, shot the 65-year-old in the head and also shot his son seven times.
The shooter remains on the loose.
"He shouldn't have been released from the start. So I blame Kim Foxx, the lawmakers for not putting tougher laws in place," Owens' step-son said.
FOX 32 reached out to Hazel Crest police about the case and are still waiting to hear back. Meanwhile, Owens’ wife and Bronzeville residents say they are going to continue to maintain his garden, saying that is what Owens would want them to do.

I am not sure what to believe as far as her motive. Yes, she is connected to Pelosi and if their plan is to destroy Cuomo doesn't this open the door to investigate the other governors who are guilty of the same scandal?
"Following Gov. Andrew Cuomo’s (D-NY) resignation, Lt. Gov. Kathy Hochul will take over, and on Wednesday, the incoming governor hinted that she may be willing to release additional data regarding Cuomo’s nursing home disaster."
