Florida Woman Kicks Boyfriend

Source: Splash / Splash News

While the coronavirus pandemic continues, more and more stories about people getting arrested for trying to weaponize the virus are surfacing. A Florida (of course) woman is making national headlines for her bizarre behavior that involves martial arts and a coronavirus claim. La-Donald Holmes, 38, was recently arrested after she attacked her boyfriend who refused to have sex with her. Village-News obtained a police report that says La-Donald, who trained black belt, then roundhouse kicked the man in the nose. She then punched him in the face and broke his nose.

The cops were called but an agitated La-Donald refused to go down without a fight. When the police attempted to arrest her, she repeatedly fell to the ground and paramedics were called because authorities thought she was having a medical episode. Village News adds that when the paramedics attempted to secure her to a stretcher, she coughed in a paramedic’s face and shouted, “I have the Coronavirus!” A deputy noted in the police report that “copious amounts of saliva” landed on the paramedic’s face.

Holmes was arrested on charges of felony battery and battery on a paramedic. She’s currently in the Lake County Jail.

This week in politics, the vibes are messy, alarming, and straight-up confusing. From late night TV being snatched off the air to vaccine policies getting hijacked, it’s giving “WTF is going on?” Let’s break down the headlines everyone’s talking about inside. First Amendment on the Chopping Block Jimmy Kimmel’s late night show has been pulled from ABC, and Stephen Colbert’s show? Cancelled completely. The official line is murky, but the bigger picture is loud. Free speech is being tested under the Trump administration. While Trump once said he’d “honor” the First Amendment, recent moves suggest he’s working off a remix version that only benefits him. Case in point? The Guardian reports his $15 billion lawsuit against The New York Times. A judge already tossed it out, saying Trump’s claims about “false content” violated federal rules. Still, the fact that these lawsuits and cancellations keep happening has people questioning the future of free expression in America. CDC Shake-Up Sparks Health Concerns Meanwhile, over at the CDC, things are getting political fast. Secretary Robert F. Kennedy, Jr. has basically turned the agency upside down, firing all 17 members of the vaccine advisory committee and replacing them with appointees that include vaccine skeptics. On top of that, the CDC director is out, high-level staffers are resigning, and decisions about vaccine safety are suddenly more about politics than science. Public health leaders are calling this move dangerous, saying it dismantles independent oversight just when Americans need clarity most. According to California’s government website, they are one of the few states pushing back on the federal government’s stance. California, Washington, and Hawaii aren’t taking it lying down. The states have formed an alliance pushing back on the feds, promising to keep vaccine guidance rooted in science, safety, and transparency. Their health officers are reviewing guidelines from trusted medical groups like the AAP and ACOG to ensure communities still have access to clinically recommended vaccines. Trump & Xi Meet About US TikTok’s Next Chapter And then there’s TikTok. After years of “will they, won’t they?” drama, Trump announced that he and Chinese Premier Xi Jinping approved a deal for TikTok’s U.S. operations. According to BBC, the plan reportedly hands control to a group of U.S. investors, sidestepping a shutdown. Trump called the call with Xi “productive” on Truth Social, and even, teased a face-to-face meetup at the APEC summit in South Korea this fall. From free speech battles to vaccine wars and TikTok drama, this week in politics has us all asking the same thing: WTFGO?
