Donald Trump, Brett Kavanaugh, sexual assault, sexual misconduct, Julie Swetnick, Michael Avenatti

On Wednesday, attorney Michael Avenatti released an affidavit via his Twitter from Julie Swetnick, a 55-year-old Washington, D.C., web designer who accused Supreme Court nominee Brett Kavanaugh of shocking sexual offenses, including “targeting” women at parties to be drugged and gang raped. The affidavit even accused Kavanaugh of being present when Swetnick herself was drugged and raped by multiple teenage boys.

Since she made her allegations, which Kavanaugh has denied, several media outlets, including the Inquisitr, have reported that an ex-boyfriend of Swetnick filed a restraining order against her in 2001. The boyfriend — 63-year-old Richard Vinneccy of Miami/Dade County, Florida — said that Swetnick was “not credible at all.”

Ohio Police Called To Park For Report Of A Dead Body, On Closer Inspection They Find Out It's A Sex Doll

Police outside of Cincinnati were called to a park for a report of a dead, naked body.

When they arrived to investigate, officers found out it was actually something very, very different: a discarded sex doll.

The incident took place in Colerain Township, where Hamilton County engineers were working in the Richardson Forest Preserve and called police for what they believed was a dead body. As Fox 59 reported, the body appeared to be wrapped in a garbage bag and abandoned on a hillside.

When police got a closer look at the “body,” they realized it was actually a sex doll that appeared to be a bit bruised and battered. Colerain Police Chief Mark Denney said officers opened the bag to find that inside was a life-sized female doll, one that, from a distance, looked just like a real person.

Maurizio Zanfanti, Legendary Playboy Who Claimed He Slept With 6,000 Women, Dies While Having Sex

It could be said that Maurizio Zanfanti died doing what he loved: a young woman.

The 63-year-old Italian man, who claimed that he slept with more than 6,000 women through his work as a nightclub promoter, died this week in Romania while reportedly having sex with a 23-year-old tourist in the back of a car. As the New York Post reported, the young woman in the car with Zanfanti called police after he suffered the heart attack, but paramedics could not revive the man.

It was not entirely clear when during the act Zanfanti suffered the heart attack. The Mirror noted that the two were finished and the woman was putting her clothes back on when she noticed the 63-year-old man in medical distress.

His death was mourned by local officials, and likely a number of women. A local newspaper called Il Resto Del Carlino said that “Zanza died after doing what he did best — loving women,” while another referred to him as a “legend.”

Cars lined in street

Two children were found dead in hot cars just hours apart in central Florida on Friday.

The Orlando Sentinel reported that a 4-year-old boy died after he was left in a hot car outside a school in Orange County.

A bystander spotted the child alone in a locked vehicle about 2:30 p.m. and brought him to a fire station across the street. Firefighters brought the boy to a hospital but he was unfortunately declared dead.

Orange County Sheriff’s spokesman Jeff Williamson said that the child was likely in the vehicle for some time. He said that the incident was likely an accident.

Mountain Goat

When most people think about Olympic National Park in Washington state, they likely think about the park’s epic coastlines, scenic forests, and gorgeous mountains.

However, the park is facing an issue that not many would imagine they’d have to tackle: a massive population of mountain goats that have developed an unusual craving for human urine, as reported by Motherboard.

Their addiction has become so serious that the National Park Services (NPS) and the USDA Forest Service have started tagging and recoating the goats two at a time via helicopter to forests in the nearby North Cascades, making sure to blindfold them so they can’t find their way back.

“The plan is to reach a zero population level of mountain goats in the park and adjacent Olympic National Forest lands…[removing] approximately 90 percent of the projected 2018 mountain goat population, or approximately 625 to 675 mountain goats,” state park officials told Motherboard.

F-35B Lightning II is ready for action.

A United States Marine Corps fighter jet has unexpectedly crashed in Beaufort County, South Carolina, according to CNN. The incident in question took place just before noon on Friday, September 29, details The Guardian.

The pilot, a United States marine, was thankfully able to successfully eject from the aircraft before it plunged earthward. He was then immediately triaged and assessed by medical personnel.

An official press release from the United States Marine Corps posted to popular social media platform Twitter further details the particulars of the incident, claiming that the precise time of the crash was 11:45 a.m. local. Promising an investigation into the precise cause of the crash — which is eminently clear given the massive $115 million price tag of the lost equipment and dangerously close call for the pilot — the press release also makes it known that there were no civilian casualties connected to the incident.

Asian-Americans sue Harvard for discrimination

A federal judge in Boston has cleared the way for a discrimination lawsuit against Harvard University to go to trial. The bench trial is scheduled to begin on October 15.

In their lawsuit, a group of Asian-American students claims Harvard discriminated against them in its admissions process through the use of racial quotas designed to artificially limit their representation in the student body.

U.S. District Judge Allison Burroughs rejected pretrial motions by both Harvard and the Students for Fair Admissions Inc. — the group representing the Asian-American plaintiffs — to rule in their favor, Voice of America reported.

“There are disputed material facts based on Harvard’s fact witnesses, the statistical evidence, and the expert opinions presented by each side that cannot be resolved before trial,” Judge Burroughs wrote in her opinion.

Harvard has admitted that it considers race in its admissions process as part of affirmative-action programs designed to promote certain minority groups, but denied that it discriminates against Asian applicants.

Giant Mosquitos Swarm North Carolina In Aftermath Of Hurricane Florence

With Hurricane Florence having brought flooding and damage to various Southern states earlier this month, swarms of giant-sized mosquitos known as “gallinippers” have been spotted in parts of North Carolina. These mosquitos, according to reports, can be up to three times larger than average, making them easy to mistake for wasps.

According to North Carolina State University entomology professor Michael Reiskind, who spoke to the Fayetteville Observer earlier this week, there are 61 different species of mosquitos found in North Carolina. These include Psorophora ciliata, a species also known as the “gallinipper” or “shaggy-legged gallinipper” because of the insects’ aggressive tendencies, and commonly associated with other floodwater species. Their eggs only hatch after heavy rains or flooding, and with Florence having just struck North Carolina, and resulted in widespread floods and the “rapid” population growth of these large mosquitos, gallinipper swarms have become a regular occurrence in the state.

Cancer Patient Pays $1,000 In Airline Fees After She Accidentally Marks Herself As 'Terrorist' On Travel Form

Breast cancer patient Mandie Stevenson was hoping to cross off one item from her bucket list when she booked a flight to New York and filled out her visa waiver form online. But when she accidentally answered “yes” to a question that asked if she was planning to, or had previously engaged in terrorist activities or other related crimes, that kicked off a saga where she ended up paying the equivalent of over $1,000 to have her flight rebooked to a later date.

According to BBC News, the 29-year-old Stevenson, a resident of Falkirk, Scotland, was diagnosed with terminal breast cancer in 2015 and had been planning a trip to New York with her boyfriend as part of her bucket list. As she thought she had everything in order after completing her ESTA (Electronic System for Travel Authorization) form, she was shocked upon finding out that her application was rejected due to her apparent mistake.

Ted Turner talks CNN

CNN founder Ted Turner is disappointed with the direction the 24-hour cable news channel he launched has taken in recent years. Specifically, the billionaire mogul said he wishes CNN covered less politics than it does now and promoted a “more balanced agenda.”

“I think they’re sticking with politics a little too much,” Turner told CBS Sunday Morning. “They’d do better to have a more balanced agenda.”

Turner launched CNN in 1980 and then sold CNN and its sister network, TBS, to Time-Warner in 1996. Turner, 79, no longer has any connection to either network, and lives quietly in Montana.

Turner is currently battling health issues stemming from the onset of Lewy Body Dementia, a progressive brain disorder.

Fox News Has Beaten CNN Ratings Every Year Since 1996

Turner said when he ran CNN, he was friends with powerful and influential world leaders who cared about his opinion because he shaped news coverage.
