Officials Claim The Fire That Destroyed Knoxville Planned Parenthood Was Set On Purpose.

According to fire officials, a fire that damaged a Planned Parenthood health clinic in Knoxville, Tennessee, last month was deliberately set.

When the building burned down on Dec. 31, Planned Parenthood stated it was nearing the finish of a $2.2 million remodeling and expansion project.

In a statement, Ashley Coffield, president and CEO of Planned Parenthood of Tennessee and North Mississippi, stated, "This is an abhorrent and tragic act of violence against Planned Parenthood, our patients, and our community."

The health clinic had already been targeted.

On the 48th anniversary of the Roe v. Wade Supreme Court judgement, which recognized the constitutional right to an abortion, someone fired a shotgun at its front doors on Jan. 22, 2021.

"We are devoted to our patients in East Tennessee and will not let this attack take away the important health care services on which they rely," Coffield added, "even if it will take time to rebuild."

The fire department stated Thursday that investigators are trying to figure out who is responsible and have requested for the public's help. For information that leads to prosecution, a $10,000 prize is being offered.

  n the aftermath of George Floyd’s murder, the phrase “Black Lives Matter” commenced to show up everywhere: on front lawns and back bumpers, on NBA players’ warm-up shirts in the course of pregame shoot-arounds, on gamers’ title displays when they fired up “FIFA 20,” on the tongues of longtime activists, college coaches, Sen. Mitt Romney (R-Utah). On the chests of Black people declaring their humanity and White people professing their allyship. After former Minneapolis police officer Derek Chauvin was convicted of Floyd’s murder, Lisa Granade, a 40-year-old White woman, finally got around to placing up a signal on her property, in an overwhelmingly White Seattle neighborhood. Granade selected a black flag with a rainbow-colored fist clenched in solidarity, hanging it on a street-facing fence alongside banners assisting LGBTQ rights and opposing gun violence. And that’s how she ended up standing in the front of her residence getting yelled at and called a “racist” through another W...

The Biden administration stated on Thursday that it has reached an agreement with the Mexican government to restore a Trump-era border policy that requires asylum seekers to remain in Mexico until their immigration court hearing in the United States. According to NBC News, the program will begin on Monday at one border crossing and will eventually expand to seven crossings, including San Diego and the Texas cities of Laredo, El Paso, and Brownsville. Former President Donald Trump originally established the policy in 2019 in response to an uptick in Central American families crossing the southwest border. According to the American Immigration Council, some 70,000 migrants have been returned to Mexico as a result of the program since 2019. President Joe Biden suspended the policy on his first day in office, citing violence against migrants waiting for court hearings in Mexico, and it was formally ended in June.
