Call it a fitting "accident" straight out of the pages of Deuteronomy.

The initial text message said "Records show you voted." The problem? Many of the...

The Select Subcommittee on the Coronavirus Pandemic referred former New York Gov. Andrew Cuomo for criminal prosecution. “Evidence suggests Andrew Cuomo knowingly and willfully made materially false statements about New York’s COVID-19 nursing home disaster and the ensuing cover-up. The Department of Justice must immediately charge Andrew Cuomo with making false statements to Congress,” the subcommittee stated.

Both witness testimony and new documents serve as evidence that the former Governor made false statements to the Select Subcommittee during our COVID-19 nursing home investigation. This deliberate and self-serving attempt to avoid accountability for the thousands of lives lost in New York nursing homes during the pandemic will not stand. If his prior criminal activity is any reflection, Andrew Cuomo is not a man of principle, and his willingness to lie to the Select Subcommittee is unfortunately a continuance of this behavior. Plain and simple, making false statements to Congress is a federal crime. We look forward to cooperating fully with the Justice Department’s investigation into Andrew Cuomo’s wrongdoings,” Chairman Rep. Brad Wenstrup (R-OH) said. From the Select Subcommittee on the Coronavirus Pandemic: Overwhelming evidence uncovered by the Select Subcommittee proves that Mr. Cuomo reviewed, edited, and even drafted portions of a purportedly independent and peer-reviewed New York State Department of Health (NYSDOH) Report that was used to combat criticism of his Administration’s pandemic-era nursing home policies. This Report low-balled nursing home fatalities and blamed nursing home staff for causing excess COVID-19 deaths. During Mr. Cuomo’s transcribed interview in June, he testified (1) he was not involved in the review or drafting of this Report, (2) he did not have any discussions about a peer-review of the Report, and (3) he did not have any knowledge of individuals outside the NYSDOH reviewing the Report. Each of these statements are demonstrably false. The Select Subcommittee recommends the DOJ review the evidence laid out in the criminal referral and immediately evaluate criminal charges against Mr. Cuomo. * Images from Select Subcommittee on the Coronavirus Pandemic X Post * Per Reuters: Criminal referrals from congressional panels are mostly symbolic; the Justice Department prosecutes cases at its discretion. Lawyers representing Cuomo sent a letter to the Justice Department on Wednesday requesting an investigation into the subcommittee for potential abuse of power, according to a copy of the letter reviewed by Reuters. Rich Azzopardi, a spokesperson for Cuomo, wrote in an email to Reuters that the subcommittee’s referral was a “taxpayer-funded farce” that is “an illegal use of Congress’ investigative authority.” The subcommittee referral focuses on closed-door testimony Cuomo gave the panel earlier this year, according to the Times. Azzopardi said that Cuomo told the committee he could not recall reviewing a New York state Health Department report on thousands of nursing home deaths during the pandemic, which deflected blame away from his government. But the Times reported earlier this year that Cuomo had written portions of the report, citing emails and congressional documents. Azzopardi said Cuomo does not dispute the authenticity of any emails or documents showing that he had, in fact, reviewed the report. But he stood by his testimony to the subcommittee that he didn’t recall providing input on the document prepared four years prior to his testimony.

An enormous blaze erupted at a Missouri lithium-ion battery recycling plant, prompting evacuations of employees and some residents. “Watch as numerous fire departments rush to the scene of a major fire at a lithium battery recycling plant in Fredericktown, Missouri, earlier this evening. The blaze, which broke out at the 225,000-square-foot facility owned by Critical Mineral Recovery, led to shelter-in-place advisories and mandatory evacuation orders in the surrounding area,” Rawsalerts wrote. “According to its website, the company uses this facility to ‘recycle lithium-ion battery materials from battery manufacturers, automotive OEMs, battery dealers, recyclers, and processors worldwide,’ describing it as ‘one of the largest lithium-ion battery processing facilities in the world.’ All plant workers have been safely accounted for, with only minor injuries reported,” the post added.

Smoke billowed from the charred building and a slight glow of remnant fire could be seen inside. According to the company’s website, the plant processes electric vehicle and consumer-grade lithium-ion batteries and retrieves valuable metals and minerals, including copper, nickel, cobalt, lithium, manganese and aluminum. The recycled materials can be used to build new batteries. The fire erupted in spite of what the company’s website calls “likely the most sophisticated automated and remote supervised and controlled fire suppression systems in the world.” “The state-of-the-art fire prevention system is designed to detect fires before they start,” the company’s site says. “The system covers all areas where battery materials are stored or processed. It is monitored remotely 24/7 employing high-intensity industrial forward looking infrared…camera technology.” Huge blaze at one of world's largest lithium-ion battery facilities Authorities have reportedly asked residents to evacuate the area or remain sheltered after a fire broke out at the lithium battery recycling centre in Fredericktown, Missouri pic.twitter.com/QqftSaorDN — RT (@RT_com) October 31, 2024 Per UPI: At least 25 fire departments, along with multiple enforcement agencies, responded to the scene, according to Madison County Sheriff Katy McCutcheon, who told reporters during a brief conference that dispatch received a call about the fire at 1:37 p.m. local time. She said the fire had been “somewhat contained” and that the evacuations were ordered for Madison County Road 277, where smoke from the plant was wafting. Fire officials are warning winds are expected to continue to push the smoke in a north-northwest direction into Thursday morning. “We were told by plant operations managers that they’re not concerned with the smoke but it’s heavy enough that people do need to evacuate,” she said. The cause of the fire was under investigation, and the contents of the smoke were to be tested by the Department of Natural Resources. McCutcheon said it was unclear what was on fire. Critical Mineral Recovery was “being tight-lipped,” she said. No injuries were reported. “This could have been completely worse,” she said.
