Searching old newspapers is one of my favorite pastimes, and I have tried to use them many times to shed light on current events - or to inform readers about how the past is prologue to our very interesting present-day quandaries. Recently, I came across a syndicated column from November 1979 that seemed to point 30 years into the future toward an obscure campaign issue that arose briefly in the 2008 presidential campaign. Though by no means definitive, it provides an interesting insight, at least, into how Chicago politics intersected with the black power movement and Middle Eastern money at...

CORRECTION (Aug. 13, 2019, 4:14 p.m. ET) An earlier version of this article misidentified the warden of the Metropolitan Correctional Center. It is Lamine N’Diaye, not Shirley Skipper-Scott. https://www.nbcnews.com/news/us-news/warden-reassigned-manhattan-jail-where-jeffrey-epstein-died-2-guards-n1041951 Pete Williams is an NBC News correspondent who covers the Justice Department and the Supreme Court, based in Washington. Now we know. NBC screwed up. And it was Pete Williams at NBC who did it. I recall Pete Williams was once the Bush spokesman in the State Dept.

Shirley Skipper-Scott, the warden of the federal jail in New York City where wealthy financier Jeffrey Epstein killed himself was reassigned out of that post by Attorney General William Barr, the Justice Department said. The U.S. Bureau of Prisons also placed two staffers at the Metropolitan Correctional Center who had been assigned to Epstein’s cell unit on administrative leave pending ongoing investigations into Epstein’s death. Epstein, a former friend of Presidents Donald Trump and Bill Clinton, was being held without bail on child sex trafficking charges at the times of his death.

A prisoner abducted and killed an assistant warden's teenage stepdaughter after he escaped from a Louisiana prison, authorities said Friday. The inmate was later found dead after a standoff with police.

The 18-year-old's body was found in a wooded area near the prison where Henderson crashed the car.

It’s not unheard of for two bucks to be seen with their antlers locked together after a battle. Tales have even been told of hunters rescuing a live deer locked with a dead one. But what is a little more odd is when two deer get locked not by their antlers, but by something else. In the case of the video below, that “something else” was a nylon rope, and the two deer needed the help of a Texas game warden.

Two bucks each tangled by the antlers in the same nylon rope were pulling against each other until a game warden came up with a clever solution. A Texas game warden came to the rescue of two bucks that were trapped in an unusual way—both deer had their antlers tangled in the same nylon rope and were pulling against each other around the pole of a clothesline in the backyard of someone’s house. The unidentified Texas game warden in Comal County used a clever strategy to free the animals, which were thrashing about with their survival in jeopardy: The Texas...

U.S. prison warden: Muslim prayers led to gangs The warden of a U.S. prison holding high-risk inmates, including American Taliban fighter John Walker Lindh, insisted Thursday that he was obeying a court order to allow daily group prayer by permitting inmates to pray in pairs within their cells. Warden John Oliver told a federal judge that when the prison allowed group prayer earlier this year, Muslim inmates formed gangs and bullied other prisoners. Lindh attended the hearing by video conference from the high-security unit that houses him and about 40 other inmates, including several convicted on terror charges. A U.S....

I need a quick list of all the Communist and Marxist ties in the Obama administration for use at a meeting tonight. Something beyond his mentor, Frank Marshall Davis, and appointee Van Jones. I know this topic is rich, and I hope other FReepers can help me tie it altogether in one neat package. Thanks in advance.

When Mr. McAmnesty (John McCain) morphed overnight into Mr. Border Security, under fire from Arizona conservatives fed up with the death and destruction flooding across its southern border, there was no great shock and nobody was in awe… When Tea Party princess Sarah Palin paid her political debt by endorsing former running mate Mr. McAmnesty for re-election to the US Senate, Tea Partiers’ were upset, but not surprised. But when Palin endorsed California candidate Carly Fiorina, running against Barbara Boxer, people were forced to ask who Palin is taking marching orders from these days… Fiorina is famous for her “Fiorina’s...

Local woman recalls growing up inside Stateville 02/08/2009, 12:13 am By Dennis Yohnka The Daily Journal correspondent Kankakeean Jeanette Seaton grew up in what she now refers to as a "gated community." The rest of the world calls it Stateville Penitentiary. One of four children born to former Stateville warden Frank Pate and his wife LaVora, Seaton lived behind those foreboding walls from ages 7 to 24, from the late '40s through the mid-'60s. She is now married to local architect Scott Seaton Sr., and lives in a very cheerful Kankakee-area home. But she hasn't forgotten life behind bars. "There...

BAGHDAD – Maj. Gen. Douglas M. Stone turned over his command of Task Force 134 Detainee Operations to Rear Adm. Garland P. Wright in a ceremony conducted at the Al Faw Palace June 6. Gen. David H. Petraeus officiated the ceremony, thanking Stone for his contributions and forward thinking regarding detention. “General Stone is a man of big ideas, and the assessment he conducted shortly after taking command led to the biggest of his big ideas: the enemy was conducting an insurgency inside the wire, and we needed to conduct counterinsurgency operations inside the wire,” Petraeus said. One of Stone’s...

A young girl is dead after a boating accident on Lake Travis Saturday. It happened just after 7:00 p.m. in Paradise Cove.

Both were taken to Brackenridge Hospital. She died from her injuries. The boat kept running at high speed...

It is perhaps not as widely known as it ought to be—in light of the hyperventilating criticism of our alleged treatment of detainees at the U.S. military’s detention center at Guantanamo Bay, Cuba—that there has never been a single death recorded at the center known by the military as “GTMO” (pronounced gitmo). It is perhaps also not as widely known that many of the detainees at GTMO do not complain of their treatment. In fact, many detainees report that conditions at GTMO are better than those they suffered fighting coalition forces in Afghanistan and Iraq prior to their being captured:...

Luke 4:4 And Jesus answered him, saying, It is written, That man shall not live by bread alone, but by every word of God. The NIV takes out "every word of God." There are many others complete passages missing. Lets examine. 1 John 5:7, Acts 8:37 and more.

A convicted murderer drives a prison official's car. A prison guard has inmates maintain his vintage Ford Thunderbird. An inmate repairs the roof of a city official's garage. As the Times-Tribune newspapers' investigation of abuses and possible criminal activity at the Lackawanna County Prison continues, the scope of the scandal is expanding. Official explanations about questionable activity at the prison have been proven false while several prison guards -- and at least one city official -- have joined the growing list of those found to have benefited from free inmate labor. The investigation to date has found two guards at...
