Trains halted. Suspect is wearing a gas mask and is on the run. Suspect in Brooklyn subway train shooting called in the tip that led to his arrest, sources say: [Sorry, this is from CNN. It seems to be the only news source I could find that says he called the tip line himself.] The man suspected of shooting 10 people on a subway train in Brooklyn on Tuesday called in a tip to Crime Stoppers that led to his capture Wednesday, two law enforcement sources told CNN. James was charged in federal court with violating a law that prohibits terrorist and other violent attacks against a mass transportation system, according to Breon Peace, US Attorney for the Eastern District of New York. If convicted, he could spend life in prison, Peace said. He was in federal custody Wednesday afternoon. James had nine prior arrests in New York dating from 1992 to 1998, including possession of burglary tools, criminal sex act, and theft of service, NYPD Chief of Detectives James Essig said. He also had three arrests in New Jersey in 1991, 1992 and 2007 for trespassing, larceny and disorderly conduct, Essig said. James has also been linked to multiple rambling videos posted on a YouTube channel. He documented his travel from Wisconsin to the Northeast in a series of videos in recent weeks. https://www.cnn.com/2022/04/13/us/brooklyn-subway-shooting-wednesday/index.html California Democrats propose 32-hour work week labeled 'job killer' by opponents: California Democrats have proposed legislation that would mandate a four-day workweek for large companies. A bill put forward by Democratic state Reps. Cristina Garcia and Evan Low would require companies with 500 employees or more to change the definition of a work week from 40 hours to 32 hours. The bill, AB 2932, would mandate that employees receive the same level of compensation for working four eight-hour days as they would for a regular five-day, 40-hour work week. Any employee required to work more than 32 hours would have to be compensated with overtime pay. Hours worked in excess of 32 hours would be compensated with time-and-a-half pay while overtime work over 40 hours would require double pay by law. Bible found opened to Psalm 106 and 107 one of few objects to survive deadliest fire in US history: When the smoke cleared, little was left intact. It was almost as if a town had never even existed there. Some broken china and a tabernacle survived the inferno. So did a Bible. The Good Book was charred by the flames and petrified by the intense heat, but found intact -- and opened to Psalms 106 and 107. "Oh give thanks to the Lord, for he is good, for his steadfast love endures forever!" the beginning of Psalm 106 and 107 reads, a haunting declaration that may seem to contradict the tragedy that unfolded one fateful night in northeastern Wisconsin but serves as a reminder of a dark chapter in American history 150 years ago, the country's deadliest fire. On the night of Oct. 8, 1871, a rapidly approaching fire engulfed the small town of Peshtigo, Wisconsin, a lumber boomtown in America's dairyland. In the span of about one hour, the fire incinerated anything and everything in its path, including numerous settlements and villages, ravaging 2,400 square miles -- an area roughly the size of Delaware. The story of Peshtigo is a lesser-known one, however, as it occurred the same night of the Great Chicago Fire. “The Chicago Fire overshadowed us," Kahl added, "but when you lose 800 people in an hour ... that’s a lot of life gone.” When all the fires finally stopped burning that year, 1.5 million acres of forest were left charred, and a dozen rural communities were devastated -- a catastrophe of biblical proportions that left a petrified Bible behind, showing a passage that tells of a punishing fire: "When men in the camp were jealous of Moses and Aaron, the holy one of the Lord, the earth opened and swallowed up Dathan, and covered the company of Abiram. Fire also broke out in their company; the flame burned up the wicked," Psalm 107 reads in part, recounting a tale of a people's fading faith in God. Whether there is meaning to those Psalms and that passage being immortalized by that terrible fire, or whether it is anything more than an interesting coincidence, is up for debate. Twitter’s Blue Checkmark Brigade Freaks Out over Elon Musk’s Buyout Plan: Liberals, progressives, and establishment pundits were in meltdown mode this morning after billionaire SpaceX and Tesla CEO Elon Musk, the richest man in the world, stated his intention to buy 100 percent of Twitter, transform it into a private company, and restore free speech on the platform. “This becomes a hostile takeover offer which is going to cost a serious amount of cash,” said Neil Campling, head of TMT research at Mirabaud Equity Research. Much of Musk’s ire against Twitter has been directed against what he perceives as censorship by the platform. In a letter to Twitter’s board alongside details regarding his offer, Musk said he believes Twitter: “will neither thrive nor serve [its free speech] societal imperative in its current form. Twitter needs to be transformed as a private company." “If the deal doesn’t work, given that I don’t have confidence in management nor do I believe I can drive the necessary change in the public market, I would need to reconsider my position as a shareholder,” said Musk. I Know Why Elon Musk Bought Into Twitter and the Answer Tells Us We Have Entered the End Days by Dave Hodges Methinks Elon Musk is part of the real evil NWO and this could be all part of the plan to oust the fake evil NWO. This very well could be part of the plan. Will keep watch on this. Poison Pill: Twitter Board Enacts Plan to Block Takeover by Elon Musk: Twitter’s board of directors is deploying defensive measures to prevent Elon Musk, the world’s richest man and a declared free speech absolutist, from taking over the company. The pro-censorship, leftist-run social media platform has adopted a Shareholder Rights Plan, a corporate tactic used to deter buyouts. Colloquially known as a “poison pill,” the measure allows existing shareholders to buy more shares at a discounted price, diluting the stake of any shareholder seeking to acquire the whole company and theoretically raising the costs of doing so. While the Rights Plan will raise the cost of any takeover attempt, it still relies on existing shareholders’ appetite to buy shares at a rate that prevents Musk or any other party from acquiring a large enough stake to take over the company. However, as most of Twitter’s top shareholders are giant investment companies that manage trillions of dollars of assets, such as BlackRock, Vanguard, and State Street, their resources considerably exceed that of any one individual — even the richest man in the world. There would still be a takeover avenue available to Musk if he assembles enough shareholder support to vote out Twitter’s current directors. The prospect of a free speech absolutist taking over Twitter has sent regime elites into a frenzy. In addition to the meltdowns from progressives on social media and reported panic from woke employees inside the company itself, there have even been warnings from a former chairman of the Securities & Exchange Commission that the Biden Administration could try to block Musk’s takeover attempt.
Frank James, 62, was arrested without incident by patrol officers in Manhattan's East Village neighborhood on Wednesday afternoon, officials said.
James called in the tip and told authorities he was at a McDonald's on the Lower East Side of Manhattan, the sources confirmed. He essentially told police he saw his face on the news and knew he was wanted, the sources said.
James talked about violence and mass shootings in the videos, including one uploaded Monday in which he said he's thought about killing people who have presumably hurt him. . . . In another video posted last week, James rants about abuse in churches and racism in the workplace. . . .
