As reported by The Sun, the baby’s mother was identified and arrested but her name wasn’t revealed. Authorities believe she gave birth at Dr. Ramon Madariaga Treble Hospital and abandoned her daughter at a nearby street, according to The Daily Mail.

David Halac, a representative of the hospital where the baby was treated, said that the knife which was stuck in the baby’s back was the same one that was used to inflict the other injuries.

As this baby girl’s survival was a real miracle, the staff at the hospital decided to name her Esperanza, which stands for Hope in Spanish.

We are so very sorry Esperanza had to go through such an ordeal just two days after she entered this world, but we are at the same time overjoyed she got to live. We hope she will end up with a loving family.

Hollywood paid tribute to one of the best and most versatile actors, Canadian-born Christopher Plummer who died on Friday at the age of 91.

Plummer was born in 1929 in Toronto, and during his career which spanned seventy years he played a number of different roles, but he will probably be best remembered by many for his role as Captain Von Trapp in the iconic musical The Sound of Music.

Known as a classically-trained Shakespearean, Plummer gained worldwide recognition for his performances in film, television, and on stage, where he played the leading roles in a huge number of productions, including Hamlet, Macbeth, Richard III, and many more.

Plummer’s talent and success won him an Academy Award for Best Supporting Actor at the age of 82 for Beginners. At the age of 88, he was nominated for Oscar for All the Money in the World, thus became the oldest person to be nominated in an acting category. At the same time, Plummer won two Tony Awards, out of seven nominations, a Golden Globe, a Screen Actors Guild Award and a Bafta. He is one of the few actors who have won the Triple Crown of Acting.

Speaking of the role which somehow marked his career, Plummer once told The New York Times: “That damn movie follows me around like an albatross,” calling Von Trapp an “empty carcass of a role.”

In a 2009 interview, the actor was reported saying: “[The Sound of Music] was a very well-made movie, and it’s a family movie and we haven’t seen a family movie, I don’t think, on that scale for ages. I don’t mind that. It just happened to be not my particular cup of tea.”

Plummer earned further acclaim for the films The Girl with the Dragon Tattoo, All the Money in the World, Knives Out, and a lot more.

His wife, Elaine Taylor, said the actor died peacefully in their family home and stated the cause of death was a blow to the head as a result of a fall.

“We’ve lost one of our most iconic and beloved actors,” Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau said. “[He] gave life to so many characters we love and cherish.” A huge number of actors and actresses paid tribute to Plummer.

“My heart is broken. Thank you always for your laughter, your warmth, your talent… the vitamins when I got sick, your patience, your partnership and your company,” Knives Out star Ana de Armas wrote on Instagram.

“The world has lost a consummate actor today and I have lost a cherished friend,” Dame Julie said in a statement. “I treasure the memories of our work together and all the humor and fun we shared through the years.”

Rest in peace.

In a shooting which took place February 2, in Sunrise, Florida, two FBI agents were killed and three were injured.

According to NBC News, at the time of the incident, the agents were serving a search warrant in a case involving violent crimes against children and were aiming at seizing evidence in child pornography investigation.

Sadly, things took different turn when the suspect began shooting and barricaded himself inside the complex.

Alyssa Ostroff, a young woman living in an apartment close to the shooting scene said how there were “FBI agents and SWAT all over the place” and law-enforcement personnel was asking the suspect to surrender through a megaphone. “It got really quiet after that,” she added.

The agents who lost their lives that day were both veterans who had spent more than six years investigating child-exploitation cases and had been involved in high-profile cases, according to George Piro, special agent in charge of the Miami field office. The injured agents are now stable.

Both agent Daniel Alfin and agent Laura Schwartzenberger helped save the lives of hundreds of children involved in child pornography and sex trafficking over the years.

Speaking of the late agents and their immense contribution in the fight against children exploitation, Nicholas Weaver, a computer security expert at the University of California at Berkeley said: “Their work speaks for itself: You just read the court cases and transcripts and it breaks your heart. I can’t even hope to estimate the number of children Agent Alfin and Agent Schwartzenberger’s investigations have rescued from horrific circumstances. The loss of both is a tragedy.”

“Every day, FBI special agents put themselves in harm’s way to keep the American people safe. Special Agent Alfin and Special Agent Schwartzenberger exemplified heroism today in defense of their country,” FBI Director Christopher Wray said.

“The FBI will always honor their ultimate sacrifice and will be forever grateful for their bravery. We continue to stand by our FBI Family, and the families of these special agents, in the days to come, bringing every resource we can to get through this together.”

“The FBI is a family, and our chosen profession is fraught with danger. Today, this grim reality has taken two of our best from our family.”

Rest in peace.

Trump’s son Eric says his dad is the “most beloved political figure in U.S. history”

Former president Donald Trump is the only U.S. president or other federal official to be impeached twice. The second impeachment trial against him is to commence on February 9, 2021. The New York Times reported that The House adopted one article of impeachment against Trump: incitement of insurrection, and charged him with “high crimes and misdemeanors” for inciting the storming of the Capitol in Washington, D.C.

According to his children, however, this whole thing is an unjust by those who want see their dad fail.

Eric, Trump’s son, has been under the spotlight these days after his claims that his father is the most beloved political figure in history reached Internet and magazines.

Speaking with Fox News pro-Trump commentator Sean Hannity, Eric claimed his father had nothing to do with the Capitol riots and accused the democrats of “manufacturing everything under the sun against my father, against all of us. They do it every single day.”

“They continue to do it. Even when he’s a private citizen, they’re still trying to impeach him,” Eric added.

Of course, a son standing for his father isn’t something strange or unusual, but Eric presenting Trump as the most beloved political figure is unjustified based on the number of polls that emerged during his one-term presidency. According to reports, Trump is the first president since before World War Two not to manage an average rating of over 50%.

However, Trump remains a very popular figure among the Republican Party with many being convinced he will run again for president in 2024.

Recently, Eric took a trip to Scotland after The Scottish Green Party attempted to probe the Trump family golf courses. Speaking of this matter, Eric said: “At a critical time when politicians should be focused on saving lives and reopening businesses in Scotland, they are focused on advancing their personal agendas.”

“The Trump Organisation has invested hundreds of millions of dollars into the Scottish economy, rescued Turnberry, and rebuilt it into one of the finest resorts anywhere in the world.

“In both Aberdeen and Turnberry, the Trump Organisation has created thousands of jobs and has made an overwhelming contribution to the leisure and tourism industry,” Eric added.

What are your thoughts on this? Do you believe Trump deserves to be considered a beloved history figure?

GOP Representative Marjorie Taylor Greene claimed she had Trump’s support after phone call with her “all time favorite POTUS”

The House voted Thursday evening to remove GOP Representative Marjorie Taylor Greene from the Education and Budget committees after controversial statements she has given in the past have triggered backlash.

Greene who was elected in November, representing a district in the southern state of Georgia, had claimed before her election that school shootings including the 2012 shooting at Sandy Hook Elementary School as well as the Las Vegas music festival shooting in 2017 and the 9/11 attacks were staged.

She is also a well known believer in the disproven and discredited QAnon far-right conspiracy theory alleging that “a secret group of Satan-worshipping, cannibalistic pedophiles is running a global child sex-trafficking ring and plotting against former U.S. president Donald Trump.”

Recently, she tweeted saying how she and her “all time favorite POTUS Trump” had a phone call and claimed she had his support.

“You can never beat him because We The People have his back. The blood thirsty media and the socialists hate America Democrats are attacking me now just like they always attack President Trump. I won’t back down. I’ll never apologize. And I’ll always keep fighting for the people. For me, it’s America First!!! Any elected politician that isn’t putting America First doesn’t deserve their position or the people’s trust,” she wrote in a series of Tweets.

“I will never back down and will stand up against the never ending blood thirsty mob who has addicted their followers to hate, in order to everything I can to protect our freedoms,” she added.

“I’m so thankful to say the people have my back and I will always have theirs.”

Controversial Georgia congresswoman Marjorie Taylor Greene says she will soon meet with former President Donald Trump as Democrats try to drum up support to remove her from Congress.

Greene has supported social media posts calling for “political violence against the Speaker of the House, members of Congress, and former President Barack Obama,” California Congressman Jimmy Gomez stated.

She defended herself on the House floor saying the conspiracy theories she once supported and fought for were just part of her past and she no longer stood for any of it.

Recently, a video of Greene harassing David Hogg in 2018, then a 17-year-old survivor of the Parkland school shooting, emerged. “Why are you using kids as a barrier?” she kept asking him as he tried to ignore her while he was walking on Capitol Hill. You can see the video below.

Cancer-survivor teacher gets emotional after her students surprise her in the hallway of the school

Great teachers change lives, and this isn’t something we say it just like that. Many times, when kids need that little push in life which helps them find their calling, their teachers are there to provide it to them.

The good thing is that most of the students never forget what these special individuals did for them. Just like the young people from Ms. Watson’s class. As it turns out, this choir teacher is truly exceptional. Many of those who have ever attended her classes say they would be nowhere near where they are today if it had not been for her. She has always made sure she helped her students succeed and showed she cared.

However, Ms. Watson took seven months off after she was diagnosed with cancer. Being the fighter she is, this incredible woman is now cancer free and ready to get back to her job.

Wanting to show her how much they missed her and how much they love her, her students decided to surprise her with a lovely rendition of Amazing Grace. Needless to say, she was touched to the core and happy she helped shape these young people into caring people.

Three people die in murder-suicide after an argument over snow shoveling in Pennsylvania

15-year-old boy with autism was left orphaned after his mom and dad were shot dead by their neighbor who later ended his own life.

Plains Township Police Chief Dale Binker said the murder-suicide took place on Monday, February 1, around 9 a.m., following a dispute between the shooter, Jeffrey Spaide, and neighbors Lisa and James Goy, according to CNN.

It has been reported that Spaide had been shoveling the snow from his driveway and the Goys were doing the same in front of their own home across the road. Spaide then asked the couple to stop and the argument escalated quickly, after which Spaide entered his home, took a gun and injured Lisa and James firing multiple shots “at a close range.”

But he didn’t stop there. He entered his home again, pulled out an AR-style rifle, and executed the couple. Binker told CNN how this wasn’t the first time for the shooter and the Goys to argue over snow shoveling, although the matter had never been brought up to the police.

Upon arrival at the murder scene, police heard another shot coming from Spaide’s home. After murdering his neighbors, he killed himself.

Binker said that Spaide didn’t have problems with the law or the police in the past.

As for the son of the Goys, his grandparents will assume custody.

We are so very sorry these people’s lives were lost in vain. Rest in peace.
