  1. yahoo.com Texas congressman says people who think 'prayers aren't cutting it' as a solution to gun violence 'don't believe in an almighty god who is absolutely in control of our lives.' 9 people died in a mass shooting in his district today. Lloyd Lee 3–4 minutes GOP Rep. Keith Self in the House chamber on January 4, 2023.Alex Brandon/AP At least eight people were killed after a mass shooting at an Allen, Texas, mall on Saturday. WFAA-TV reported that some of the victims may include children. Rep. Keith Self told CNN that prayer is "powerful" for families devastated by mass shootings. A Republican congressman representing Allen, Texas — where a mass shooting killed at least eight people on Saturday — said people who don't believe in the power of prayer following a violent incident aren't believers of an "almighty god" after he was asked what his response would be to people who feel prayers are not the solution to mass shootings. Authorities responded to a shooting at Allen Premium Outlets — a mall near Dallas, Texas — around 3:40 p.m. Allen Fire Department Chief Jonathan Boyd said in a press conference that seven people were found dead at the scene, while two more died after they were transported to area hospitals. Seven others were also injured, according to the fire chief. WFAA-TV reported that some of the victims could include children. During an interview with CNN, Rep. Keith Self called for prayer in light of the mass shooting, which included injured victims as young as 5 years old. When a CNN reporter asked what his response was to people who feel "prayers aren't cutting it," the congressman said, "Well, those are people that don't believe in an almighty god who is absolutely in control of our lives." "I'm a Christian. I believe that he is," Self said. Self also said he wanted to avoid making the tragic incident political but then pointed to the violence in "big cities" after being asked if he was concerned about the rise of violent incidents across the US. The congressman said he was "absolutely" concerned with increasing violence in the country and mentioned Chicago — a city with a population of 2.697 million where crime spiked in 2022 — as an example while stating Allen was a "very safe area." According to Census data, Allen, a suburb about 25 miles north of Dallas, has a population of 106,874 and had one reported homicide in 2020. "Any time there is violence, whether it be in one of the big cities — riots or trashing of stores in Chicago — or shootings like this. This is a very safe area. This is not usual. I know that we hear about the numbers of deaths in Chicago. This is not usual in this area," Self said. "So I'm certainly concerned about this." Republicans have repeatedly turned to crime in America as a platform talking point, framing it as an issue specific to large, Democratically-run cities. While overall homicides increased domestically in 2020, an analysis by Third Way, a public policy think tank, found that murder rates are higher in "Trump-voting red states" than "Biden-voting blue states." "In 2020, per capita murder rates were 40% higher in states won by Donald Trump than those won by Joe Biden," according to Third Way's report. A spokesperson for Rep. Self did not return a request for comment.
  2. A man who arrived at the scene of the Allen, Texas, mass shooting said he found a girl with 'no face' and a mother who died protecting her son from bullets: 'It's just unfathomable to see the carnage.' 508 Lloyd Lee Sun, May 7, 2023 at 2:05 AM CDT People raise their hands as they leave Allen Premium Outlets, where a mass shooting killed at least nine people on May 6, 2023.LM Otero/AP At least 8 people were killed after a mass shooting on Saturday at an Allen, Texas, shopping center. One man jumped into action after his son, who works at the mall, called about a potential shooting. The father told a CBS News affiliate about the "carnage" he witnessed when he arrived at the scene. A man who rushed to the Allen, Texas, shopping center where at least eight people were killed in a mass shooting on Saturday afternoon said he witnessed a horrific scene of "carnage," CBS News affiliate KTVT reported. Steven Spainhouer told the news outlet that he immediately went to Allen Premium Outlets after his son, who worked at an H&M store at the mall, called about a shooting. He said he arrived at the location before emergency responders and quickly tried to provide aid. - ADVERTISEMENT - "I never imagined in a hundred years I would be thrust into the position of being the first responder on the side to take care of people," Spainhouer told KTVT. As he tried to provide CPR to victims, Spainhouer, holding back tears, told a KTVT news reporter J.D. Miles that he knew there were at least three people he couldn't help, including a girl and a mother. "The first girl I walked up to was crouched down, covering her head in the bushes. So I felt for a pulse, pulled her head to the side, and she had no face," he told the local outlet. Spainhouer said he also found a child covered by his mother, who had died in the attack. "When I rolled the mother over, he came out, and I asked him, 'Are you okay?' And he said, 'My mom is hurt. My mom is hurt,'" Spainehouer recalled. "So rather than traumatize him any more I put him around the corner, sat him down. He was covered from head to toe like somebody had poured blood on him." Spainhouer's son was not injured in the incident. Spainhouer told KTVT that the scene he witnessed was life-altering. "No one can see what they saw today and not be affected by it. It's not a situation that I would wish upon anybody. It's just unfathomable to see the carnage," he said. At least nine people were killed in the mass shooting — the second such incident in the state about a week after five people were shot in San Jacinto County. Allen Fire Department Chief Jonathan Boyd said in a press conference that seven people, including the suspected shooter, were found dead at the scene, while two others died after they were transported to local hospitals. Seven people were still hospitalized at the time of the conference, with three in "critical surgery," he said. Read the original article on Insider
  3. money.cnn.com Use of food stamps by active military families rises again, although at slower pace than in recent years Jennifer Liberto 4–5 minutes At military grocery stores, more food stamps have been redeemed over the years. More military families used food stamps to buy milk, cheese, meat and bread at military grocers last year. Food stamp redemption at military grocers has been rising steadily since the beginning of the recession in 2008. Nearly $104 million worth of food stamps was redeemed at military commissaries in the fiscal year ended Sept. 30. "I'm amazed, but there's a very real need," said Thomas Greer, spokesman for Operation Homefront, a nonprofit that helps soldiers on the financial brink nationwide. Some of the growth in soldiers' redemption of food stamps reflects the weak economic recovery, especially for spouses looking for jobs. In 2012, there was a 30% unemployment rate among spouses off active-duty military who were 18 to 24 years old, according to the Military Officers Association of America, which released the survey last week. Spouses who have to relocate every few years have a tough time finding work in the private sector. Related: Senate votes to restore military pensions During the recession, some states lowered eligibility for food stamps, making it easier to qualify. That could account for some of the growth in use by active-duty military, said Joyce Raezer, executive director of the National Military Family Association. "It was easier for some of those families right on the cusp to qualify," she said. In 2011, about 5,000 active-duty military members were on food stamps, making up less than a tenth of 1% of the 44 million on food stamps, according to the USDA, which has yet to update its figures. Pentagon officials say they don't track who exactly is redeeming food stamps at military grocers, called commissaries. But they say that it's the bottom of the ranks, often the most junior 18 to 20-somethings who already have several children. Base pay for a new soldier with a spouse and kid is around $20,000, just above the poverty line. Although that doesn't include housing or food allowances. The housing and food help put the income of an Army private with two years of experience a bit more than $40,000, the Pentagon says. In 2013, Operation Homefront received 2,968 emergency requests for food help, more than any other kind of request for help. The numbers are down significantly compared to two years ago, but they're still nearly three times what they had been in 2008. Related: My grocery bill will skyrocket if military stores close "When there are unexpected disruptions for a family with a junior (enlisted) member, it can become a challenge to put food on table," Greer said. "Cost of food remains a very real challenge." The good news is that the growth in food-stamp redemption at military grocers has slowed. The 2013 figure was only a 5% uptick from 2012, less the the 13% increase in growth in 2012 and the record 70% hike in growth in food stamps use in 2009, according to the Defense Commissary Agency. Food stamps has been a hot topic in Washington for months, as enrollment in the anti-poverty program remains at record high levels. Currently, 47 million Americans depend on food stamps. Half of them are children and a quarter of them are seniors. Enrollment in the program soared during the Great Recession, with nearly 15% of the population getting benefits, according to recent federal data. The average monthly benefit was $134 per person in October. Congress allowed cuts in the food stamps program last November, with the average recipient losing about $11 thanks to the expiration of a recession-era boost in funding. Active-duty military families were affected by those cuts. CNNMoney (Washington) First published February 17, 2014: 7:56 AM ET
  4. i disagree. there was a time not very long ago our soldiers needed food stamps to survive and that is just a bad look when your country expects you to stand up and possibly give your life for her.
  5. yes this is Michigan State but i feel like it gives us a nice window into him.
  6. The future of the Proud Boys after Tarrio's conviction; the new face of doxxing online Will Carless, USA TODAY 7–8 minutes Four members of the extremist street gang the Proud Boys were found guilty of seditious conspiracy Thursday for their actions leading up to and during the Jan. 6 insurrection. Meanwhile, a USA TODAY investigation revealed a neo-Nazi troll was running a hateful harassment campaign on the messaging app Telegram and creating racist and homophobic videos, all while he was officially in federal custody. It's the week in extremism. Inside the Proud Boys They joined the Wisconsin Proud Boys looking for brotherhood. They found racism, bullying and antisemitism. Chinese American support for Proud Boys Proud Boys saw wave of contributions from Chinese diaspora before Capitol attack Enrique Tarrio, leader of the Proud Boys, a far-right group, attends a "Stop the Steal" rally against the results of the U.S. presidential election outside the Georgia state Capitol on Nov. 18, 2020, in Atlanta. Proud Boys guilty: Can the group survive? More: Proud Boys' Enrique Tarrio guilty of seditious conspiracy. Will convictions change the group? On Thursday morning, Henry "Enrique" Tarrio and three other members of the Proud Boys extremist gang were found guilty of seditious conspiracy and other crimes in perhaps the most high-profile case to come out of the Jan. 6 insurrection. A fifth Proud Boy, Dominic Pezzola, who was one of the first protestors to enter the Capitol, was found guilty of assaulting officers, but escaped the seditious conspiracy charge for now, as jurors couldn't decide whether he was guilty or not. The verdict is a huge win for the Justice Department, which has brought 1,000 prosecutions for the insurrection. Last year, high-ranking members of the Oath Keepers were also found guilty of seditious conspiracy, but the Proud Boys case has been especially closely watched. I took a look at what the verdicts mean for a group that has been splintered ever since Jan. 6, but shows no sign of disappearing. Experts said Proud Boys chapters continue to show up at protests, particularly anti-LBGTQ events, but that the prosecutions have had a chilling effect on large-scale protests. Yet to face any legal woes is Gavin McInnes, who founded the Proud Boys in 2016. McInnes, who is a Canadian citizen, lives in New York. Although he claims to have left the group in 2018, McInnes has been spotted in the company of Proud Boys and was still defending them on Thursday. "I begged them not to go," McInnes wrote to me in a text message, referring to Jan. 6. "These guys have kids. This might as well be a death penalty," he wrote in response to the verdicts. Asked what he thinks will happen to the Proud Boys now, McInnes wrote: "It will go on forever." More: Two years since the Jan. 6 insurrection, extremist groups are fragmented, but live on When Annie Nygard became the subject of a targeted threat effort online, she decided to post about the experience to her more than 35,000 followers. She was surprised by the feedback she got. Telegram used to wage campaign of racist, homophobic harassment Our new investigation this week outlines how a group of people used the secure messaging app Telegram to organize a campaign of harassment and doxxing of Black people, Jewish people, and members of the LGBTQ community over several months. Project Mayhem on Telegram They were flooded by online harassment and hatred. They didn't know a targeted campaign caused it "Project Mayhem," as it was called on Telegram, served as a channel for people to post "raids" on targets they disliked. Usually, these targets were Black, Jewish, members of the LGBTQ community or affiliated with anti-fascists. The channel targeted dozens of people including a business in Sacramento, a Jewish student in New Jersey and a Black comedian in Kentucky. In "raids" usually lasting anywhere from a few hours to a few days, members of Project Mayhem sent hateful messages and images and harassed people with threatening phone calls and text messages. USA TODAY asked Telegram for comment on the channel. The company never responded. But Project Mayhem quickly disappeared after we asked about it. “What’s so different about this is that it's literally orchestrated,” said Heidi Beirich, co-founder of the Global Project Against Hate and Extremism. “Harassment usually just arises almost out of the ether because people don't like something somebody's saying, and so they get mobbed online. But to direct attacks, that's actually real nasty.” Paul Nicholas Miller was arrested in Florida in March 2021 on charges of illegally possessing firearms. He was sentenced to federal prison. Campaign coordinated by a man in federal custody Federal inmate ran hate campaign How one man pushed harassment 'raids,' sold racist paraphernalia online, while in federal custody Not only was Project Mayhem a directed harassment campaign, but it was also being coordinated by a man called Paul Miller, who was in federal custody at the time. In a second story in our investigation, we lay out how Miller, who goes by "Gypsy Crusader" online, could have been posting racist, homophobic and anti-Semitic content online when he was ostensibly under the supervision of the federal Bureau of Prisons. Miller has a criminal record dating at least back to 2007, when he was convicted of felony drug possession and aggravated assault. He was raided by the FBI in 2021 and charged with being a felon in possession of a firearm. He was convicted on those charges later that year and sentenced to 41 months in prison. Miller was released from prison in January and entered the murky area of "Residential Reentry Management" — essentially a system of halfway houses and home confinement monitored by regional RRM offices. Almost immediately, he went back to making the racist and anti-semitic videos that had gained him thousands of fans online. In addition to Project Mayhem and his hate-filled livestreams, Miller was also running a business based on his neo-Nazi views. He sold patches, paraphernalia, posters and even "cameos" where he often filmed himself saying the N-word for a paying customer. A researcher found Miller had raised more than $5,000 in the last few months just in cryptocurrency. After USA TODAY inquired about Miller's activities with the Bureau of Prisons, he was transferred back to a secure facility. Stat of the week: 17 years That's how long ex-agent Jared Wise worked at the FBI. Wise was arrested this week in Oregon and charged with entering the US Capitol and seeking to disrupt official proceedings during the Jan. 6 riot.

  8. Eight so-called fake electors took immunity deals in Ga. probe. What does that mean for Trump? Ella Lee, USA TODAY 5–6 minutes Eight so-called fake electors who in 2020 sought to cast Georgia's electoral votes to former President Donald Trump instead of Joe Biden agreed to immunity deals with prosecutors investigating the scheme, according to a Friday court filing. The Georgia investigation development comes as local prosecutors continue to pursue a wide-ranging inquiry involving the former president and his allies, election fraud and the electors' roles in casting fake Trump ballots. Fulton County D.A. Fani Willis said possible criminal indictments from the investigation could come between July 11 and Sept. 1; whether the grand jury will decide to indict is still unknown, but she asked for “heightened security and preparedness” during that period, regardless. Here's what experts say that means for the Georgia probe and Trump. Alleged fake electors scheme What we know Former President Donald Trump announces he is running for president for the third time at Mar-a-Lago in Palm Beach, Fla., Nov. 15, 2022. What was the 2020 elector scheme? After the 2020 presidential election, when it became clear Trump had lost the election and Joe Biden would become president, the now-ex-president and his allies allegedly devised a plan to use slates of alleged fake electors in battleground states to overturn the 2020 election. The plan, based on a debunked legal theory, relied on key states to find Trump-supporting electors and on former Vice President Mike Pence to toss out the real electors. Pence penned a letter Jan. 6 on the debate over the objections, which said his "oath to support and defend the Constitution constrains me from claiming unilateral authority to determine which electoral votes should be counted and which should not." The failure to overturn the election was a motivator for pro-Trump rioters who attacked the Capitol on Jan. 6, 2021. How does it relate to the Georgia probe? On Dec. 14, 2020, alleged fake electors met in seven states — Georgia, Arizona, Michigan, Pennsylvania, New Mexico, Nevada and Wisconsin — and signed documents falsely claiming they were the "duly elected" electors from their state, at the Trump campaign's request, USA TODAY previously reported. "The fake electors in Georgia were supposed to throw confusion into the Electoral College vote count on January 6 by suggesting there were two competing slates of electors, with the Trump slate purporting to represent the legitimate electors," said Anthony Michael Kreis, a law professor at Georgia State University. Why did eight electors receive immunity? Kay Levine, a law professor at Emory University in Georgia, told USA TODAY that without an official indictment — and without knowledge of specific alleged crimes — the role the electors who received immunity deals are playing in the Georgia investigation is speculative. But the basics of immunity deals can offer some answers. "Without knowing the details, it suggests to me that there are eight people who the office at one point considered would be targets of this investigation and has decided that they would be more useful to this investigation as witnesses, rather than targets," she said. "That's the reason for an immunity deal." Looking at the broader context of the investigation, it's possible that conspiracy charges related to election fraud could be on the table, both Kreis and Levine said. Why have two electors not received immunity? The Friday court filing revealed that two of the alleged fake electors have not received immunity deals. That could be because prosecutors believe those electors were more central to the organizing and planning of the elector scheme, Kreis said. "So the DA wants to either prosecute them because of their role, or prospectuses are slowly working up the food chain and using additional information uncovered through immunity deals as leverage in future negotiations," he said. More: Eight alleged fake Trump electors in Georgia accept immunity deals in grand jury probe The disclosure that the eight so-called fake electors received immunity deals doesn't shed any additional light on the specific charges Trump or his allies might face as a result of the Georgia probe, Levine said. But the immunity deals may indicate that Willis' probe could lead to charges for more central players in the 2020 electors scheme, like Trump, Rudy Giuliani or lawyer John Eastman, according to Kreis. Trump and his allies could face charges for fomenting a broad conspiracy to overturn the election or having engaged in a criminal racketeering scheme, though at this point, the extent to which the former president played a role in directing the scheme is unclear, he said. "The fake electors scheme was central to that conspiracy to solicit election fraud, which is why their actions could put Trump in serious legal jeopardy," Kreis said.

  10. 247sports.com Auburn depth chart impact: WR Caleb Burton Nathan King 4–5 minutes Less than 24 hours after landing its much-needed transfer quarterback, Auburn added more help to the passing game via the transfer portal. On Saturday, Ohio State receiver Caleb Burton committed to the Tigers after visiting the program last weekend. The Texas native doesn’t bring any production to the table after redshirting as a true freshman last season, but there’s plenty of talent for Auburn’s new coaching staff to mold, as Burton was a top-150 overall recruit in the 2022 class. After third-year players Landen King and Tar'Varish Dawson entered the portal, Auburn was left with only seven scholarship receivers, making the position group one that Hugh Freeze and his staff were going to target heavily. Burton’s commitment likely won’t be the last Auburn pushes for in the receiving corps. Rated as the No. 10 receiver in the country by 247Sports in last year’s recruiting class — and signing with an Ohio State program that has arguably college football’s best track record at the position over the past few seasons — Burton did not appear in any games for the Buckeyes during their run to the College Football Playoff. Burton visited Auburn last weekend just a few days after entering the portal, and new position coach Marcus Davis made him feel like a major priority to boost a thin unit. “Something they’ve been harping on is (needing) more wide receivers on the team,” Burton said. “And I think that’s a great opportunity," Burtons joins the highly anticipated transfer quarterback pickup — Payton Thorne from Michigan State — along with App State pass-rusher Jalen McLeod as the Tigers’ trio of post-spring transfer additions thus far, all within the past four days. Auburn is now up to 15 transfer players added to the roster under Freeze. Here’s a look at Davis’ receiving corps at the moment, and where the 5-foot-11 Burton could fit in as a redshirt freshman. Seniors: Ja'Varrius Johnson, Nick Mardner Juniors: Koy Moore (RS), Malcolm Johnson Jr. (RS) Sophomores: Camden Brown, Omari Kelly Freshmen: Caleb Burton (RS), Jay Fair (RS), Daquayvious Sorey -- Early depth chart projection WR/X: Camden Brown (1), Nick Mardner (2) WR/Z: Koy Moore (1), Malcolm Johnson Jr. (2) OR Omari Kelly (2) WR/H: Ja'Varrius Johnson (1), Jay Fair (2) OR Caleb Burton (2) It’s difficult to get a concrete read on where Burton fits most comfortably in terms of alignment at receiver, since he didn’t take any snaps at Ohio State. In high school, he was obviously a playmaker all over the field, even lining up on the outside. He could fit more of a slot role at Auburn, where he could serve as an immediate replacement for Dawson, but he was also evaluated as being more fluid than explosive in high school, which could find him a home at the flanker spot. Davis seems to have a solid foursome of Johnson, Mardner, Brown and Moore, who were the primary fixtures in the first-team offense during spring practice. But behind them, Malcolm Johnson Jr., Kelly, Fair and Burton all have yet to accomplish much at the college level. In addition to the 4-star freshman Sorey, playing time should be up for the taking in the second wave of Auburn’s receiving corps. And Freeze reiterated in spring practice that he wants two solid groups of receivers to be able to consistently rotate throughout the season. While Burton is still short on experience and will be learning a new system on the fly in fall camp, there’s little question of the type of talent and potential he brings to the offense. Burton now becomes the highest-rated recruit Auburn has at the position. While Burton may serve as more of a depth piece his first season on the Plains, Auburn’s staff will be looking to ensure his development is on the best track to create a starting-caliber player in the near future. 6COMMENTS *** Subscribe to Auburn Undercover for the latest news and intel, podcasts, recruiting coverage and more ***

  14. prove it. because everyone is now saying it is the number one killer of kids in america. but you either deflect or miss the point. the bottom line is most of you value being able to carry assault rifles over kids lives. and you prove it every single day. you guys have one person i know of fighting for saner laws but i cannot remember his name. as an aside go watch the video access on our new QB. it is very good and i am impressed.
  15. you owe LP bro as i have never seen the video and i hit them every single day for auburn stuff. but when he got that player a bottle of water? and another for another player? that is leadership and just being a damn top shelf teammate. once i saw that i was sold. people would die for folks like that. i miss that.
  16. i can only imagine riding around with you on some fancy golf cart drinking a frosty beverage and hearing the old stories. i live for that stuff. i wish some of the old players here from auburn would tell more stories but i get it. but people would just love them more. offer stands. i would drive as far as auburn to meet and now i am wondering why i said that knowing no one wants to meet my "crazy AZZ".
  17. lets bump this bad boy hopefully to share with more folks.
  18. How about you haters coming at me HERE if you do not care what i have to say on the political boards and not jump me out of the blue on it on a sports thread? can we do that?
