Police: 3rd victim in Thursday Alabama church shooting dies By Jay Reeves Associated Press VESTAVIA HILLS, Ala. — A third elderly church member who was shot when a man pulled out a handgun during a potluck dinner has died, police said Friday. The 84-year-old woman died hours after being rushed to a hospital following the Thursday evening shooting at St. Stephen’s Episcopal Church in the Birmingham suburb of Vestavia Hills. The suspect, a 71-year-old man, was subdued and held by a person attending the dinner until police arrived, sparing the congregation from further violence, police Capt. Shane Ware said. “It was extremely critical in saving lives,” Ware told a news conference. “The person that subdued the suspect, in my opinion, was a hero.” Ware said the suspect and the three victims were all white. The woman who died Friday was not immediately identified. Vestavia Hills police said in a Facebook post that her name was being withheld because her family requested privacy.

Replacement benefits available for SNAP food spoilage Recipients can apply to county offices to replace food lost Staff Report Columbus — The Ohio Department of Job and Family Services is reminding Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program (SNAP) recipients who experienced food spoilage during the recent power outages that they may be eligible for replacement benefits. Households that lost food pur- chased with SNAP benefits due to a power outage of four hours or more can apply to receive replacement SNAP benefits for the amount of food the household lost, as long as it does not exceed their monthly allotment. Replacement SNAP benefits will be added to the Ohio Direction Card of the recipients. Impacted households must complete JFS Form 07222 within 10 days of the loss and submit it to their County Department of Job and Family Services (CDJFS). The CDJFS will have to verify the extended power outage before replacing benefits, therefore, we encourage households to provide verification of the extended power outage. This includes screen shots of news reports, text or email alerts, or outage maps that show their specific area was without power for four hours or more. To determine if a SNAP recipient is eligible for replacement benefits, the CDJFS follows reimbursement criteria provided in Ohio Administrative Code (OAC) Rule 5101: 4-7-11 established by the U.S. Department of Agriculture’s Food and Nutrition Services. Recipients can find their county office by visiting: jfs.ohio.gov/ county. �OBITUARIES/NEWS 2 Saturday, June 18, 2022 Stealthy, healthy nutrition for kids tent, and avoid argumentaIn a perfect world, we Meigs tive conversations about would all have enough time Health picky eating behavior. in the kitchen to prepare Matters Many of your kids’ go-to healthy, tasty, and pictureRebecca foods can be easily made perfect meals for our Zuspan healthier with the addition families.

When dealing with the picky or unhealthy eating habits of your youngsters, the most important thing to remember is to keep mealtime positive, structured, and consistent. Don’t focus conversation on weight, unhealthy habits, and finicky food fixations. Instead, bring new foods to the table without fanfare, and let kids see you eating and enjoying the same foods. At dinner time, offer choices (“Which would you like for dinner, broccoli or cauliflower?”) and let kids help in the kitchen, in the garden, and in the grocery produce aisle. Sit around the table at mealtime, turn off the TV, put away the phones, and serve the same meal to kids and adults to model good eating habits to them. Only introduce one new food at a time, serving alongside family favorites, and don’t give up! Kids don’t always take to new foods right away, so keep trying. I can attest to this as my own son has discovered many of his new favorite foods after a dozen or more tries. The summer months are the perfect time to explore healthy food options in Meigs County with your kids. You may have a garden in your backyard, a vegetable stand in your neighborhood, or a farmer just up the road. Meigs County is blessed with an abundance of fresh produce options this time of year, so take advantage of opportunities to pick, prepare, and partake with your kids. Your family can also find locally harvested goods at the Meigs County Farmers Market at 100 Main Street in Pomeroy Saturday from 10am to 1pm from May through the end of October. Make a point to try some new and healthy foods this summer with your kids, and don’t be afraid to fly under the radar to incorporate healthy ingredients into their everyday favorites. Success is the result of small efforts every day, so don’t give up! THE PLAINS — Anna Mae Saunders, age 91, formerly of The Plains passed away June 15, 2022 at UC West Chester Hospital, West Chester.

The statute of limitations for attempted burglary is 20 years, Stewart said, noting the appeals court called a shorter time limit for attempted aggravated murder “an absurd result.” Bortree stalked the victim, kidnapped her at gunpoint, sexually assaulted her, slit her throat and left her for dead, Stewart said. “The only reason that she’s alive is because he barely, by millimeters, missed hitting her carotid artery,” he said. Some justices appeared skeptical of Stewart’s interpretation of the law at the time. Lawmakers also added the word “attempted” to rape cases, said Justice Michael Donnelly, who asked why they didn’t do the same for aggravated murder. “If they do it in one section and they don’t do it in another, we have to assume they did it for a reason,” Donnelly said. Stewart argued lawmakers did include it by making clear the change applied to “the most serious crime on the books in Ohio, aggravated murder and murder.” The lawyer representing Bortree argued the opposite, Because state law doesn’t specifically define a limit for attempted aggravated murder or attempted murder, the statute of limitations on that charge — six years — had GALLIA, MEIGS CALENDAR OF EVENTS Editor’s Note: The Daily Sentinel and Gallipolis Daily Tribune appreciate your input to the community calendar.

The Biden administration responded with a whole of government action that included included diplomatic, law enforcement and intelligence efforts designed to put pressure on ransomware operators. Since then, ransomware gangs have shied away from “big-game” targets in the U.S. in pursuit of victims unlikely to provoke a strong response by the U.S. “They’re still prolific, they’re making enormous amounts of money, but they’re just not in the news everyday,” Eleanor Fairford, a dep- uty director at the UK’s National Cyber Security Centre, said at a recent U.S. conference on ransomware. Tracking trends of ransomware attacks, in which criminals encrypt victims’ data and demand payment to return them to normal, is difficult. NCC Group, a UK cybersecurity firm that tracks ransomware attacks, said the number of ransomware incidents per month so far this year has been higher than it was in 2021. The company noted that the ransomware group CL0P, which has aggressively targeted schools and health care organizations, returned to work after effectively shutting down for several months. expired, said attorney James Tyack. “The General Assembly has never stated that these should have any other statute of limitations than the default for a felony of six years,” Tyack said. Although some DNA tracing was done over the years on the case, authorities finally connected Bortree to the attack in 2019 using a technique known as genetic genealogy, in which relatives of a suspect are traced by uploading the suspect’s DNA to public genealogy sites. Detectives collected used cigarette butts discarded by Bortree at work and then tested them with positive results, according to court documents. FDA authorizes 1st COVID-19 shots for infants, preschoolers By Lindsey Tanner AP Medical Writer U.S. regulators on Friday authorized the first COVID-19 shots for infants and preschoolers, paving the way for vaccinations to begin next week. The Food and Drug Administration’s action follows its advisory panel’s unanimous recommendation for the shots from Moderna and Pfizer. That means U.S. kids under 5 — roughly 18 million youngsters — are eligible for the shots. The nation’s vaccination campaign began about 1 1/2 years ago with older adults, the hardest hit during the coronavirus pandemic. There’s one step left: The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention recommends how to use vaccines. Its independent advisers began debating the two-dose Moderna and the threedose Pfizer vaccines on Friday and will make its recommendation Saturday. A final signoff is expected soon after from CDC Director Dr. Rochelle Walensky. At a Senate hearing Thursday, Walensky said her staff was working over the Juneteenth federal holiday weekend “because we understand the urgency of this for American parents.” She said pediatric deaths from COVID-19 have been higher than what is generally seen from the flu each year. “So I actually think we need to protect young children, as well as protect everyone with the vaccine and especially protect elders,” she said. The FDA also authorized Moderna’s vaccines for school-aged children and teens; CDC’s review is next week. Pfizer’s shots had been the only option for those age groups. For weeks, the Biden administration has been preparing to roll out the vaccines for little kids, with states, tribes, community health centers and pharmacies preordering millions of doses. With FDA’s emergency use authorization, manufacturers can begin shipping vaccine across the country. The shots are expected to start early next week but it’s not clear how popular they will be. Without protection for their tots, some families had put off birthday parties, vacations and visits with grandparents. “Today is a day of huge relief for parents and families across America,” President Joe Biden said in a statement. While young children generally don’t get as sick from COVID-19 as older kids and adults, their hospitalizations surged during the omicron wave and FDA’s advisers determined that benefits from vaccination outweighed the minimal risks. Studies from Moderna and Pfizer showed side effects, including fever and fatigue, were mostly minor. “As we have seen with older age groups, we expect that the vaccines for younger children will provide protection from the most severe outcomes of COVID-19, such as hospitalization and death,” FDA Commissioner Robert Califf said in a statement. In testing, the littlest children developed high levels of virus-fighting antibodies, comparable to what is seen in young adults, the FDA said. Moderna’s vaccine was about 40% to 50% effective at preventing infections but there were too few cases during Pfizer’s study to give a reliable, exact estimate of effectiveness, the agency said.

Another day brought another surprise to The Country Club when Nick Hardy — technically the last player into the 156-man field — pieced together a 2-under 68 on Friday to share the lead with Masters champion Scottie Scheffler among the early starters. This came one day after Adam Hadwin — who got in as an alternate just eight days before the start of the championship — held the 18-hole lead. This is not unusual for a U.S. Open, which a year ago had Richard Bland of England in the mix. “Couldn’t be a better start,” said Hardy, who qualified for two U.S. Opens while playing at Illinois, where he was a Big Ten champion. And it couldn’t have been a quicker exit for Phil Mickelson, who at least delighted fans with big birdies — 45 feet on No. 5, nearly 60 feet on No. 6 — that only helped him salvage a 73. He still missed the cut for the second time in three years at the U.S. Open. The next stop is Oregon in two weeks for the next Saudi-backed LIV event. Among afternoon starters, there was another mixture of contenders — two-time major champion Collin Morikawa and David Lingmerth, who earned his spot as an alternate from U.S. Open qualifying, were setting the afternoon pace by reaching 5 under. At one point, Lingmerth and Tarren Callum of England were atop the leaderboard. Their combined world ranking: 908. Rory McIlroy proved the U.S. Open treats everyone the same, not always good news. He had to take three hacks out of waist-high fescue to get on the green and then made a 25-foot putt for a double bogey. A warning for potential bad weather instead brought warm sunshine and slightly stronger wind, so much that the USGA began to sprinkle water on the greens between the morning and afternoon waves to keep the putting surfaces from getting too quick. Scheffler and his best friend and housemate this week, Sam Burns, provided the name recognition among the early starters. Scheffler made a pair of soft bogeys early in his round until he burst to the top by chipping in from deep rough for eagle on the par-5 14th, adding one more birdie and posting a 67. Scheffler and Hardy were at 3-under 137, with Burns (67), Matt Fitzpatrick (70) and Hadwin (72) another shot behind. Burns has three PGA Tour wins over the last nine months and has risen to No. 9 in the world. “Two silly bogeys early in the round, but outside of that I hit it really good,” Scheffler said. “I was in position most of the day. If a few more putts would have fallen in versus around the edge, it would have been a really special day. But 3 under was a good score for me, especially being 2 over through 6.” There could have been cause for alarm early in his round, especially after Scheffler had missed the cut in his previous major at the PGA Championship. Only the 25-year-old from Dallas doesn’t dwell on the past, and he spends even less time thinking about the future.

Mason County racks up titles By Bryan Walters bwalters@aimmediamidwest.com It was probably the closest thing to a normal school year — at least sports-wise — that anyone at the high school level has been part of since the start of the 2019 summer. With that said, there was hardly anything normal about the 202122 prep sports calendar regarding schools within the Ohio Valley Publishing area … particularly on the southern side of the Ohio River. Many league and sectional championships made their ways to both Gallia and Meigs counties over the course of 10 months worth of athletic endeavors, and each of the three counties produced a single playoff qualifier on the gridiron. However, the only state crowns that made their way back to the tricounty region came from Mason County … particularly a handful of programs from either Point Pleasant or Wahama. After losing all of spring and some of winter back in 2020 due to the initial outbreak and concerns regarding COVID, the 2020-21 school year ended up resulting in resumed games … albeit with the risk that games could be cancelled at a moment’s Bryan Walters|OVP Sports Point Pleasant freshman Gunner Andrick takes down an opponent while winning the 126-pound weight class championship at the Class AA wrestling championships at Mountain Health Arena on March 6 in Huntington, W.Va. notice. And sometimes that was exactly what happened. Add in staggered and later-than-usual seasonal schedules to last year’s lineup in West Virginia, and one can only begin to understand how ‘weird’ it was to endure the first normal high school sports calendar in the past three years. Mason County didn’t exactly suffer in its first full year back after COVID as the Wahama Lady Falcons captured the school’s first-ever Class A softball title last spring, while the Black Knights came away with the 2021 Class AA state title in boys track and field. PPHS also secured its fifth and sixth state championships in wrestling just before COVID hit in 2020 and returned for a triumphant 3-peat in Class AA in 2021. There were also individual champions from both wrestling and track and field as the 2021 campaigns eventually ended in early April and mid-June. This past year, however, saw Mason County take gigantic strides in history as the traditional ways of high school athletics started to reappear at local stadiums, gymnasiums and ball diamonds. Point Pleasant wrestling, for a third year in a row, captured titles in six of the 14 weight classes at the Class AA level while recording the program’s first-ever 4-peat as state champions at Mountain Health Arena. The Big Blacks — in securing the school’s seventh overall state crown — also produced two of the three 4-time individual state champions in school history in Derek Raike and Justin Bartee. Freshmen Gunner Andrick and Josh Woyan, as well as sophomores Nathan Wood and Conner Blessing, also came away with the first individual championships of their respective wrestling careers.

Down the road, we want to take the program to where it’s competing at the highest level in collegiate rugby.” Along with recruiting, Pilkington is diving head first into scheduling and getting the women’s team off the ground — something that, for various reasons, didn’t happen in year one. “First and foremost, I have to build and add to the squad of players that we have in place now,” he said. “Our goal this year is to win a National Championship and, having come so close to getting to that stage last season, I defintely feel with the addition of one or two more players to the squad it’s something that’s definitely not beyond our reach.” He’s also excited about the chance to do it all with the backing of a fan base which embraced the sport from the get-go. “We developed a very strong fan base during our first season and I hope that I can count on those fans returning to fill the hill in the coming season,” said Pilkington. “We’ve only scratched the surface in terms of the fan base that we can build and that was evident by the amount of people who followed us to games last year — especially when we went to St. Louis for regional finals. I hope that we can give those fans — and the new generation of fans that we pick up along the way — another successful season to cheer us on.” Masters and his steady demeanor is a particularly good fit for the U.S. Open.

He went out in 32, came back in 40, and the good news was Daffue was still under par. Hadwin had two quick bogeys and was going the other direction quickly. He opened with a 66 and was back to even par for the tournament until birdies on the last two holes. Randy Payton is the Sports Information Director for the University of Rio Grande.

He took Boston AP Sports Writer By Tim Reynolds AP Basketball Writer The goal was enormous: Return to the NBA’s mountaintop. And now with that monumental task complete, the NBA champion Golden State Warriors already have a new target: staying up there for a while. The victory cigars hadn’t been extinguished after the title-clinching win in Boston, the last celebratory bottles of Moët & Chandon hadn’t been emptied, and the topic — can the Warriors win it again next season? — was already coming up. They have been installed by FanDuel Sportsbook as the favorites for the 2023 NBA title, and with Finals MVP Stephen Curry, Klay Thompson and Draymond Green all back it would be foolish to think that their chance at a fifth championship in nine years isn’t very real. “It still has not been proven, that when we’re whole, that anybody can stop it,” Green said. That’s true, and that’s why it makes sense for the Warriors to carry the burden of being favorites into next season. They know what it takes; they have as many championships in the last eight seasons — four — as the rest of the league combined. The last run that was better than this was put together by Michael Jordan and the Chicago Bulls, winning six in an eight-year span of the 1990’s. Warriors coach Steve Kerr — now a nine-time champion — played for the Bulls for some of that run, and has led Golden State to all four of these titles. “They are all unique. They are all special,” Kerr said. “I think this one may have been the most unlikely just from the Steven Senne | AP Golden State Warriors guard Stephen Curry, center, holds up the Bill Russell Trophy for most valuable player after the Warriors defeated the Boston Celtics in Game 6 to win the NBA Finals championship Thursday in Boston. standpoint of where we’ve been the last couple years. A lot of unknowns.” Indeed, there were questions. The Warriors answered them all. No, the core wasn’t too old. Yes, Thompson would come back from more than 900 days on the sidelines with injuries. And absolutely, Curry can still be unstoppable in the biggest moments. They took that core and fortified it with a new group of talent. Among those on that list: 27-yearold Andrew Wiggins, the 2014 No. 1 pick who has come into his own and was nothing less than a star in the NBA Finals; Jordan Poole, who turns 23 this weekend and will celebrate as a champion who has blossomed after facing off against Curry in practice all the time; and Jonathan Kuminga, the 19-year-old who got into 86 games and is raved about by teammates. “And we ain’t done,” Thompson said early Friday while appearing on Green’s podcast, The Draymond Green Show. “That’s the beautiful thing about it. We got these young bucks behind us and we got the same squad coming back? That’s scary for the NBA.” TODAY 8 AM WEATHER 2 PM 65° 72° 71° Pleasant today with sunshine. Mainly clear tonight.

Thompson came back in January and the Golden State goal was clear — win it all, again. The Warriors have played 24 playoff series with Curry, Thompson and Green together in the last eight years. They’ve won 22 of them; the exceptions being the 2016 and 2019 finals, when injuries took a toll. This time, there was no stopping the Dubs. “I saw it in the beginning of season,” Thompson said. “People called me crazy. I said ‘Championship or bust’ because I saw how we came out of the gate, 18-2. And playing just that Warriors brand of basketball that made us so successful, and then knowing I was going to be inserted in that, I knew we had a chance to do something special, and here we are. It’s so incredible. Wow.” Training camp is only three months away so the revving-up process for next season will start sooner rather than later. The Warriors know they’ll be right back in the center of the NBA spotlight, playing tons of national TV games, getting every opponent’s best shot, drawing massive attention everywhere they go again. EXTENDED FORECAST 8 PM ALMANAC High Low Normal high Normal low Record high Record low Green concurred. “It is very scary,” he said. They earned that championship moment, after going through an NBA Finals loss in 2019 to Toronto and then two seasons with a combined 54-83 record, a million miles away from being the team that the Warriors demand they be. The Warriors had the NBA’s worst record in 2019-20 in large part because of roster turnover — Kevin Durant, who was out that whole season while recovering from Achilles surgery, had just left for Brooklyn — and injuries. Thompson didn’t play that season because of a knee injury suffered in the final game of the 2019 finals. Curry played in just five games. It was the reset year. The bounceback was supposed to be last season, but Thompson had to sit out again, this time because of an Achilles tear of his own. The Warriors lost in the play-in tournament. But seeds were planted for something great; how great, even Golden State wasn’t sure, but Curry insisted something was brewing. “You don’t want to see us next year,” Curry said when the 2020-21 season ended.

Couy Griffin, who founded the political group Cowboys for Trump, was sentenced to 14 days behind bars, Gemunu Amarasinghe | AP which he has already Otero County, New Mexico Commissioner Couy Griffin arrives at Federal Court Friday in Washington. served. The punishment for Griffin’s role in the Jan. 6, 2021, riot that delayed the certification of President Joe Biden’s victory and sent lawmakers running for their lives comes the same day Griffin’s Republican-dominated county commission faces a deadline to certify its election results. Griffin entered a restricted area outside the Capitol but didn’t go into the building itself. Prosecutors had sought an additional 70 days in jail for Griffin, who already spent 20 days in jail before being released pending his trial. His lawyers asked for only two months of probation. During the riot, he shouted his unsubstantiated belief that the election was stolen from thenPresident Donald Trump, climbed a toppled fence and another barrier to access the Capitol steps and used a bullhorn to lead the throngs in prayer. A judge hearing testimony without a jury convicted Griffin of a misdemeanor for illegally entering the restricted U.S. Capitol grounds. U.S. District Judge Trevor McFadden, a Trump nominee, also acquitted Griffin of a misdemeanor disorderly conduct charge after a bench trial in March. Trump weighs another run as GOP rivals eye own campaigns By Jill Colvin Associated Press NASHVILLE — As religious conservatives gathered this week at a sprawling resort near the Grand Ole Opry House, Nikki Haley pressed the Faith and Freedom Coalition’s “Road to Majority” crowd to look to the future. “It’s up to us to deliver a new birth of patriotism,” said Haley, the former South Carolina governor who was ambassador to the United Nations under President Donald Trump. “And together with you, and with trust in God, I pledge to answer that call and inspire our country once again.” Such comments are typical of a party that’s out of power and in search of its next leader. But what’s unusual: The party’s last leader is plotting his own comeback. Trump is showing up on the same stage Friday, his first public appearance since the House committee investigating the Jan. 6 insurrection began to lay bare his desperate attempts to remain in power by challenging American democracy. But, at least for now, the harrowing footage and searing testimony in the panel’s hearings, including accounts from Trump’s close associates and members of his family, appear to have done little to dampen his interest in another campaign. Indeed, Trump is actively weighing when he might formally launch a third presidential run, according to people familiar with the discussions. The debate, according to aides and allies who insist Trump has yet to make a final decision, centers on whether to announce a campaign in the coming months or, in accordance with tradition, wait until after the November midterm elections. Trump has spent the past year and a half holding rallies, delivering speeches and using his endorsements to exact revenge and further shape the party in his image. But some say the former president, who has decamped from his Florida Mar-a-Lago club to Bedminster, New Jersey, for the summer, is also growing impatient. While he has relished his role as a party kingmaker — with candidates all but begging his endorsement and racking up large tabs at fundraisers in his ballrooms — Trump also misses the days when he was actually king, particularly as he watches Democratic President Joe Biden struggling with low approval ratings and soaring inflation. “I think a lot of Trump’s future plans are directly based on Biden, and I think the more Biden continues to stumble on the world stage and on the domestic stage, people forget about the downside, the dark side of Trump’s presidency,” said Bryan Lanza, a GOP strategist and former Trump campaign official. An announcement in the near future could complicate efforts by other ambitious Republicans to mount campaigns. Haley, for instance, has said she wouldn’t run against Trump. But there also are concerns that a near-term announcement could hurt Republicans going into the final stretch of a midterm congressional campaign that appears increasingly favorable to the party. A Trump candidacy could unite otherwise despondent Democratic voters, reviving the energy that lifted the party in the 2018 and 2020 campaigns. And, regardless of his decision, the aura of inevitability that Trump sought to create from the moment he left the White House has been punctured. Some Republicans and their aides have tried to make clear in recent months that a Trump candidacy would have little influence on their own decisions. Mark Humphrey | AP Sen.

Political and military support from Western countries has been key to Ukraine’s surprising success against larger and betterequipped Russian forces. Zelenskyy has also clamored for additional immediate support in the form of more and better weapons to turn the tide in the industrial east, known as the Donbas region. In St. Petersburg, Putin decried the sanctions imposed on Russia by the U.S. and its allies as “insane and, I would say, reckless.” “The calculation was understandable: to impudently, with a swoop, crush the Russian economy by destroying business chains, forcing the withdrawal of Western companies from the Russian market, freezing domestic assets, hitting industry, finance, and the people’s standard of living. It didn’t work,” he said. Russia has pressed its offensive in the east, leaving desperate residents worried about their future. “We are old people, we do not have a place to go. Where will I go?” asked Vira Miedientseva, an elderly resident grappling with the aftermath of an attack Thursday in Lysychansk, just across the river from Sievierodonetsk, where a key battle is raging. In other developments Friday: — Zelenskyy announced that Russia has freed Yuliia Paievska, a celebrated Ukrainian medic who used a body camera to record her work in Mariupol while the port city was under Russian siege. Paievska, known in Ukraine as Taira, got the clips to an Associated Press team on March 15, the day before she was captured by Russian troops. Zelenskyy said Paievska is “already home.” He said Ukraine will continue working to free all those held by the Russians. — The Ukrainian navy claimed it destroyed a Russian boat carrying air defense systems to a strategic island in the Black Sea. The navy said on social media that the Vasily Bekh was used to transport ammunition, weapons and personnel to Snake Island, which is vital for protecting sea lanes out of the key port of Odesa. �NEWS 12 Saturday, June 18, 2022 Daily Sentinel Watergate 50th meets Jan. 6. Common thread: Thirst for power By Calvin Woodward Associated Press WASHINGTON — The wreckage of Watergate and Jan. 6 are a halfcentury apart yet rooted in the same ancient thirst for power at any cost. Two presidents, wily and profane, tried an end run around democracy. Mysteries from both affairs endure as the House inquiry into the Jan. 6, 2021, uprising at the Capitol intersects with this week’s Watergate 50th anniversary. Is there a smoking gun to be found in Donald Trump’s deceptions? Or did we already see it when he summoned angry supporters to a “wild” time in Washington, called for them to “fight like hell” and mused that perhaps his vice president — one of the few “no” men in his compliant cabal — should be hanged like the insurrectionists demanded? Trump had lost the election and sought to cling to power. But Nixon? A key question may be why he even bothered to go rogue. Nixon was on a comfortable path to reelection when bumbling burglars tied to his campaign committee broke into Democratic Party headquarters at the Watergate office building 50 years ago Fri- COVID-19 From page 1 95 deaths.

Rainey’s family said in a statement Friday that it was hard to believe he had been killed at one of his favorite places, a church that “welcomes everyone with love,” while attending a dinner with his wife of 61 years. “We are all grateful that she was spared and that he died in her arms while she murmured words of comfort and love into his ears,” said the statement provided by Rainey’s daughter, Melinda Rainey Thompson. “We are proud that in his last act on earth, he extended the hand of community and fellowship to a stranger, regardless of the outcome,” Rainey’s family said. Police are still investigating what motivated the suspect, who occasionally attended services at the church, Ware said. He said the man’s name is being withheld until prosecutors formally day and got caught. The chapter-upon-chapter exposure of his coverup and efforts to obstruct justice drove him from office nearly two years later when he quit rather than face a likely conviction in an impeachment trial. Three Republican leaders from Congress went to the White House and helped convince him that he was doomed. In contrast, Trump was desperate, having convincingly lost the 2020 election when he dispatched his own bumblers — lawyers, aides, hangers-on — as well as the violent mob at the Capitol on a quest to upend the results and keep him in office. Few in his party publicly urged him to accept defeat. Watergate is the American presidential scandal by which all others are measured. It brought down a president. Yet Jan. 6 was the one that spilled blood. Watergate had a powerful afterburn, leading to Republicans being tossed out of Congress by the dozens in 1974. This time, there is near unanimity that the party will make gains. Michael Dobbs, author of “King Richard: Nixon and Watergate — An American Tragedy” from 2021, said the system worked in Watergate Bob Daugherty | AP file Richard Nixon says goodbye with a victorious salute to his staff members outside the White House as he boards a helicopter after resigning the presidency on Aug. 9, 1974. The traumas of Watergate and Jan. 6 are a half century apart, in vastly different eras, and they were about different things. But in both episodes, a president tried to do an end run around democracy. Today is the 50th anniversary of the Watergate break-in that eventually consumed Richard Nixon’s presidency. because Congress, the courts and the press did their job in establishing a chain of criminal activity that led Nixon to resign. “The system was under stress then,” he said, “but is under much greater stress today.” When the Senate Watergate committee conducted its landmark hearings starting in May 1973, inflation was heading toward 9% by year’s end, about where it is now. The stock market crashed. Then as now, people had pressing distractions. But Americans were riveted by the spectacle of a president sinking slowly into disgrace. More than 70% told a Gallup poll they watched the televised hearings that spread over nearly three months of that summer. The Jan. 6 hearings, to date, are less about investigators discovering new facts than about showing and telling what they’ve already found out in months of methodical work. To Dobbs, evidence of Trump’s direct involvement in planning or inciting the riot with the intention of overturning the election would constitute a Nixonian smoking gun. The challenge for the Jan. 6 inquiry and any prosecution that may follow is “the ambiguous nature of Trump’s statements from a legal point 61-70 — 703 cases (9 new), 17 deaths 71+ — 635 cases (8 new), 61 deaths Additional county case data since vaccinations began Dec. 14, 2020: Total cases since start of vaccinations: 6,143 (52 new); Total cases among individuals who were not reported as fully vaccinated — 5,068 (76 new); Total breakthrough cases among fully vaccinated — 1,075 (19 new); Total deaths among not fully vaccinated individuals — 77; Total breakthrough deaths among fully vaccinated individuals — 7. A total of 12,308 people in Mason County have received at least one dose of the COVID-19 vaccine, which is 46.4 percent of the population, according to DHHR, with 10,425 fully vaccinated or 39.3 percent of the population. Mason County is currently green on the West Virginia County Alert System. There have been 33 confirmed cases of the Delta variant in Mason County. There are 14 confirmed cases of the Omicron variant reported in Mason County.

The event was a “Boomers Potluck” gathering inside the church, according to messages posted on the church’s Facebook page by the Rev. John Burruss, the pastor. He said he was in Greece on a pilgrimage with a group of members and trying to get back to Alabama. Vestavia Hills Mayor Ashley Curry told reporters his “close-knit, resilient, loving community” had been rocked by “this senseless act of violence.” The bedroom community is one of the wealthiest cities in Alabama, home to many businesspeople, doctors and lawyers who work in nearby Birmingham. Vestavia Hills is known for top-flight schools and a familycentered, suburban lifestyle. It has nearly 40,000 residents, most of whom are white. The Rev. Rebecca Bridges, the church’s associate rector, led an online prayer service on the church’s Facebook page Friday morning. She prayed not only for the victims and church members who witnessed the shooting, but also “for the person who perpe- trated the shooting.” “We pray that you will work in that person’s heart,” Bridges said. “And we pray that you will help us to forgive.” Bridges, who is currently in London, alluded to other recent mass shootings as she prayed that elected officials in Washington and Alabama “will see what has happened at St. Stephens and Uvalde and Buffalo and in so many other places and their hearts will be changed, minds will be opened.” “And that our culture will change and that our laws will change in ways that will protect all of us,” she added. There have been several high-profile shootings in May and June, starting with a racist attack on May 14 that killed 10 Black people at a supermarket in Buffalo, New York. The following week, a gunman massacred 19 children and two adults at an elementary school in Uvalde, Texas. Thursday’s shooting happened just over a month after one person was killed and five injured when a man opened fire on Taiwanese parishioners at a church in Southern California. It comes nearly seven years to the day after an avowed white supremacist killed nine people during Bible study at Emanuel AME Church in Charleston, South Carolina. Agents with the FBI, U.S. Marshals Service and the Bureau of Alcohol, Firearms, Tobacco and Explosives joined investigators at the scene, which remained cordoned off Friday with yellow police tape as police vehicles with flashing lights blocked the route to the church. On Saturday, thousands of people rallied in the U.S. and at the National Mall in Washington, D.C., to renew calls for stricter gun control measures. Survivors of mass shootings and other incidents of gun violence lobbied legislators and testified on Capitol Hill earlier this month. Alabama Gov. Kay Ivey issued a statement late Thursday lamenting what she called the shocking and tragic loss of life. Although she said she was glad to hear the suspect was in custody, she wrote: “This should never happen — in a church, in a store, in the city or anywhere.” of view,” he said. “’Fight like hell’ can be interpreted in different ways.” In releasing previously recorded testimony from close associates of Trump, the panel has exposed the extent to which Trump’s circle knew his case about a stolen election was a sham. Even his daughter Ivanka Trump wasn’t buying it. Trump’s attorney general, William Barr, testified that the president’s arguments were “detached from reality” if he really believes them. Harsh words but to what effect? Trump’s election denialism courses through the campaigns of farright Republicans in the 2022 midterm election season, some prevailing in their primaries. The hearings will in no way be the last word on Trump’s lies. “Trump is constitutionally unable to let criticism pass,” said Southern Methodist University political scholar Cal Jillson. “So expect a rising tide of recriminations, a lengthening enemies list and a program of retribution stretching out into the future. “Other Republican leaders will ponder the damage this might do to the party,” he added, “but, as yet, there are no Howard Bakers on the horizon.” Baker personified the politics of the time in Congress, partisan but not poisonous. He was the Rep. Liz Cheney of the day, but on his way up in the Republican Party, not an outcast from it like the endangered Wyoming congresswoman, who is fierce in her disdain for Trump and fellow Republicans who won’t cross him. Baker expressed instinctive loyalty to Nixon at first — “I’m your friend,” he recalled telling him face to face when the hearings started. But as the top Republican on the Watergate panel, he listened, questioned, dug in over the hundreds of hours of hearings and saw the corruption. His famous question — “What did the president know and when did he know it?” — was actually posed as a tentative defense of the president, because Baker expected the answer to be not much. “I believed that it was a political ploy of the Democrats, that it would come to nothing,” Baker told The Associated Press in 1992. “But a few weeks into that, it began to dawn on me that there was more to it than I thought, and more to it than I liked.” COVID-19 Hospitalizations since Jan. 1, 2021 among individuals not reported as fully vaccinated — 69,524; COVID-19 Hospitalizations since Jan. 1, 2021 among individuals reported as fully vaccinated — 4,836. have been a total of 7,017 deaths due to COVID19 since the start of the pandemic, with one since the last update. There are 2,004 currently active cases in the state, with a daily positivity rate of 6.85 and a cumulative positivity rate of 8.14 percent. Statewide, 1,134,409 West Virginia residents have received at least one dose of the COVID-19 (63.3 percent of the population).

Grant at Appomattox Courthouse, on April 9, 1865, it would be over two years before all the approximately three million slaves living in the Confederate states would be freed. The final Confederate holdout was Texas. On June 19, 1865, Major General Gordon Granger arrived in Galveston with General Orders No. 3 in hand that allowed him to establish the legal authority to assume military command in the state. It has been reported that General Granger wasted no time in announcing the Civil War was officially over, and read the order aloud: “The people are informed that, in accordance with a proclamation from the Executive of the United States, all slaves are free. This involves an absolute equality of personal rights and rights of property, between former masters and slaves.” Celebrations of prayer, feasting, song, Kayla (Hawthorne) Dunham is a staff writer for Ohio Valley Publishing, reach her at 304-6751333, ext. 1992. and dance began that day, and have continued each year on June 19. The day celebrated in the African American community as a day for healing and advocacy has become known as Juneteenth. The day became officially recognized in all 50 states before becoming a federal holiday in 2021. According to the National Juneteenth Observance Foundation (NJOF), the most prominent symbol of Juneteenth is its flag, red, white, and blue fabric, with a bursting star placed against an arc. NJOF’s mission is, “To bring all Americans together to celebrate our common bond of freedom through the recognition, observance, education and historic preservation of Juneteenth in America.” Sources for the article include: National Juneteenth Observance Foundation, Library of Congress Archives, History.com. © 2022 Ohio Valley Publishing, all rights reserved.
