House, debris over Fla. sinkhole to be removed Associated Press Copyright 2013 Associated Press. All rights reserved. This material may not be published, broadcast, rewritten or redistributed. Updated 2:38 am, Monday, March 4, 2013 (AP) — The gaping sinkhole that swallowed a man from his Florida home last week could be revealed later Monday when demolition crews knock down the remaining walls and begin clearing away the debris. The opening of the sinkhole has been covered by the home, but once emergency officials and engineers can see inside it more clearly, they could begin planning how to deal with it. On Sunday morning, Bush and relatives prayed with a pastor as the home — where he lived with his girlfriend, Rachel Wicker; their daughter, Hannah, 2; and others — was demolished and waited for firefighters to salvage anything possible from inside. Several generations of family members lived in the home at the time of the ground collapse, including Jeff Bush, the man now presumed dead. Detective Larry McKinnon said the sheriff's office and the county medical examiner cannot declare Bush dead if his body is still missing. No one — from longtime public safety officials to geologists — could remember an incident where a person was sucked into the earth without warning.

  • DeSantis Appointee: Women Should Choose Birthin' Babies Over College
    The Daily Dot, Friday - 01/10/2025 - 02:09 PM

    Political scientist Scott Yenor, a Christian Nationalist, was appointed by Gov. Ron DeSantis to the board of the University of West Florida in Pensacola, and his ideas about how women should live are cringe. Yenor is anti-woke, anti-DEI, and thinks that feminism is "evil." Yenor is also a former fellow at The Heritage Foundation. And now Yenor tells us women folk, who never asked for his fucking useless opinion, that they should prioritize birthin' babies over pursuing college degrees. The Associated Press reports: A professor at Boise State University, Yenor has written extensively on what he sees as the dangers of diversity, equity and inclusion efforts in higher education as well as the declines of traditional marriage and birth rates in the U.

    A few days ago, Donald Trump Jr. went to Greenland for some PR as part of Daddy's case for annexing another sovereign country. To help things along, Trump's entourage handed out MAGA hats with promises of free food and drinks. At least one of the locals described the scene this way: "All they have to do is put on a cap and be in the Trump staff's videos.

    Some people love to make dismissive remarks about the government -- until their world goes up in flames, is under water, or shaken apart. President Biden announced yesterday that for the next six months, the federal government will pay for 100% of the disaster response costs from the Los Angeles wildfires.

  • FBN's Maria Bartiromo Asks If 'Outside Agitators' Responsible For CA Wildfires
    The Daily Dot, Friday - 01/10/2025 - 11:04 AM

    Of course they're immediately looking for another way to attack undocumented migrants. Fox "news" and Fox Business Network have been ranting and raving nonstop about the wildfires in California, using it as an excuse to attack L. A. Mayor Karen Bass, the fire chief, because she's also a woman and DEI for the fires, along with repeating Trump's endless string of lies and attacks over the tragedy. Here's Maria Bartiromo, after first lying that Bass cut the fire department budget (it was actually increased by $23 million) asking if "outside agitators" might be responsible for the fires on this Thursday's Mornings with Maria: MARIA BARTIROMO (ANCHOR): Have we ruled out all outside agitators?read more
