The lawsuit, filed by Pregnancy Justice on behalf of McElroy and her daughter, further claims that medical staff gave her only a diaper and Tylenol while she endured severe pain and worried about the safety of her baby.

According to the complaint, another inmate eventually assisted McElroy in delivering a baby girl who was not breathing when she was born on the prison floor, as prison guards watched. The filing says two women housed in the same pod attempted to revive the newborn by removing mucus from her mouth and rubbing her until she finally cried.

The complaint also alleges that, after the delivery, a guard told the women: “Y’all should’ve pushed that motherfucking baby back in” and punished the women on the cell block, prohibiting them from going outside and to religious services, and revoking phone privileges.

Israel is running a widespread and deeply embedded, covert influence operation in Canada, and the government has refused to treat it as interference by a foreign actor, a new report by Canadians for Justice and Peace in the Middle East (CJPME) has said.

The group is now calling on Ottawa to designate Israel as a "key threat actor" alongside the likes of China and India, expel Israeli diplomats, and ban Israeli spyware, among other recommendations published on Wednesday.

"The pattern of deception and disinformation outlined in this report demonstrates the malicious role of the Israeli state in interfering in Canadian public affairs, undermining the rights and safety of Canadians," CJPME said.

Five examples are provided in the document, all of which are designed to shape Canadian public opinion, government regulations, and media narratives via local intermediaries, as CJPME described.

The citations rely on reporting from the Canadian investigative outfit, The Breach, the left-leaning news site, Press Progress, and papers such as The Globe and Mail, The Toronto Star, Haaretz, and The New York Times.

The first example is of "secretly" funded polling in the aftermath of the 7 October 2023 Hamas-led attacks on southern Israel, "which used biased language to sway results in support of Israel’s genocidal actions in Gaza [and] was conducted by Toronto public relations firm Aurora Strategies Global without disclosing that it was on behalf of the Israeli consulate", the report said.

The president made the statement while delivering remarks to law enforcement officials at the White House on May 11, 2026, in honor of National Police Week.

"We have a man who is doing a great job, I'll tell you. I knew it! Because he kept me out of jail for years. Acting Attorney General Todd Blanche, he kept me out of jail. "

Elizabeth Warren, the ranking member on the Senate banking committee, slammed Kevin Warsh’s confirmation as chair of the Federal Reserve, repeating many of the reservations she had about the president’s pick to lead the central bank.

“Mr Warsh has proven to be a sock puppet for Trump,” she said on the Senate floor. “During his confirmation hearing, Warsh couldn’t even say that Trump lost the 2020 election. We need a Fed chair who evaluates economic data and sets monetary policy in the real world, not in Trump’s delusional alternative reality.”

Warren, a Democratic senator from Massachusetts, added that the criminal investigation into Jerome Powell, the outgoing Fed Chair, is still ongoing. “Take it from US attorney Pirro, who said that she, quote, ‘will not hesitate to restart a criminal investigation’. And she went on to promise that her office would, ‘continue to litigate the issue’,” Warren said.

President Donald Trump praised acting Attorney General Todd Blanche on Monday, saying the lawyer has “kept me out of jail for years.”

"We have a man who’s doing a great job, I’ll tell you. I knew it, because he kept me out of jail for years. Acting Attorney General Todd Blanche. He kept me out of jail. They would indict me left and right, the crooked Democrats. "

Bacon’s idea was a mirror. A long, narrow, shallow plane of water aligned exactly between the Lincoln Memorial and the Washington Monument so that, depending on where you stood, the marble Lincoln dissolved into the sky and the obelisk multiplied into two. Roughly 2,030 feet long, 167 feet wide, 18 inches deep at the edges and 30 inches in the middle. The whole point of those measurements was that they should vanish.

This is a key part of the Lincoln Memorial Reflecting Pool history that often gets glossed over. The pool is not a swimming pool, despite what one architect told NPR last month about “pool guys” refinishing it like Mar-a-Lago. The pool is an optical instrument.

Community Guidelines

Blåhaj Lemmy is a space where everyone should feel able to participate safely, and to that end, our community is built on the guiding philosophies of empathy, inclusion and acceptance.

Empathy

We want our community members to be guided by compassion and empathy for others.

Examples of behaviour that are contrary to this philosophy are personal attacks, insults, doxing etc. If your comment is designed to hurt someone, this isn't the space for it.

Inclusion and Acceptance

Embracing inclusion and acceptance means listening when people tell you who they are and what their needs are. It means not telling people that you know their experiences better than they do. It means not gatekeeping experiences of identities of others. It means no bigotry such as racism, sexism, anti LGBT commentary, ableism etc. It means doing your best to ensure that you don't over-talk the voices of folk who don't share your privileges.

Supporting Blåhaj Lemmy

After much hesitation, we have a Ko Fi to enable people to help with supporting some of the running costs associated with our instances.
