Kentucky man declared brain dead wakes up during organ harvesting

A man who had gone into cardiac arrest and been declared brain dead woke up as surgeons in his home state of Kentucky were in the middle of harvesting his organs for donation, his family has told media outlets.

As reported Thursday by both National Public Radio and the Kentucky news station WKYT, the case of Anthony Thomas “TJ” Hoover II is under investigation by state and federal government officials. Officials within the US’s organ-procurement system insist there are safeguards in place to prevent such episodes, though his family told the outlets their experience highlights a need for at least some reform.

Many refugees seeking safety in Canada end up in shelters for months

Every year, refugees come to Canada fleeing war , violence and persecution. But their hopes for a smooth transition are often dashed as soon as their feet hit Canadian soil. Many find themselves sleeping on a mattress on the floor of a homeless shelter.

Khairiya Abdul-Mumin fled Ghana one year ago. She had no time to prepare or save money and arrived at YYC with $50 in her pocket and months of frigid winter weather ahead of her.

Canada must have a reputation as an easy mark. Why else would someone in Ghana choose to fly here as a “refugee”. Close the border.

The US is investigating an unauthorized release of classified documents on Israel’s attack plans

WASHINGTON (AP) — The United States is investigating an unauthorized release of classified documents that assess Israel’s plans to attack Iran, three U.S. officials told The Associated Press. A fourth U.S. official said the documents appear to be legitimate.

The documents are attributed to the U.S. Geospatial Intelligence Agency and National Security Agency, and note that Israel was still moving military assets in place to conduct a military strike in response to Iran’s blistering ballistic missile attack on Oct. 1. They were sharable within the “Five Eyes,” which are the U.S., Great Britain, Canada, New Zealand and Australia.

The documents, which are marked top secret, were posted to the Telegram messaging app and first reported by CNN and Axios. The officials spoke on the condition of anonymity because they were not authorized to discuss the matter publicly.

Shareable with 5 Eyes? My bet is someone in the Trudeau gov’t leaked them.

Canadian professor calls for investigation into murder of Sinwar

Bitchy McBitchFace

Heidi Matthews, a law professor at York University in Toronto, specializing in international criminal law and laws of war, calls for an investigation into the elimination of Hamas leader Yahya Sinwar by Israel.

In a statement published on Twitter, Matthews wrote: ”A wounded fighter attempting an escape is not hors de combat; this is why Israel claims Sinwar was killed while trying to escape. While he was wounded in a first attack & fled to the building in which he died, the video shows him seated when he was killed.”

She says so much crazy it isn’t worth following her.
