Mayor Bill de Blasio first announced his plan to tamp down outbreaks in parts of Brooklyn and Queens on Sunday after the rate of positive coronavirus tests in some neighborhoods exceeded 3% for seven straight days. De Blasio's decision to delineate the neighborhoods where closures would be enforced using postal ZIP codes drew scorn from New York Governor Andrew Cuomo, a fellow Democrat with whom he has often feuded.

| China will exploit new sailing routes to the Atlantic and threaten UK interests, warns First Sea Lord Posted: 08 Oct 2020 10:14 AM PDT  The First Sea Lord has warned that China will exploit new sailing routes to the Atlantic that are being opened up as a result of melting polar ice caps. In a speech on board the aircraft carrier HMS Prince of Wales Admiral Tony Radakin said the effects of climate change on the northern sea passage would create "new maritime trade routes across the top of the world" which would halve "the transit time between Europe and Asia". Admiral Radakin said: "When China sails its growing Navy into the Atlantic, which way will it come, the long route, or the short?" He cautioned that the free movement of "nations, their navies, and above all their merchant ships" could be put at risk when China starts to use these routes as it would "threaten this concept" of free maritime movement. "The world is getting more competitive, more contested," he added. "We will have to play our role in that world. As the High North becomes more open and accessible it's going to be more contested and competitive as well."

| High court nominee served as 'handmaid' in religious group Posted: 07 Oct 2020 11:02 AM PDT  Supreme Court nominee Amy Coney Barrett served as a "handmaid," the term then used for high-ranking female leaders in the People of Praise religious community, an old directory for the group's members shows. Barrett has thus far refused to discuss her membership in the Christian organization, which opposes abortion and, according to former members, holds that men are divinely ordained as the "head" of both the family and faith, while it is the duty of wives to submit to them. Portions of two People of Praise directory pages for the South Bend, Indiana, branch were shared with The Associated Press by a former member of the community on condition of anonymity because of the sensitivity of the issue and because this person still has family members in People of Praise.

| Trump files 'emergency' appeal to the Supreme Court to halt the Census count Posted: 07 Oct 2020 05:41 PM PDT  The Trump administration filed an emergency application on Wednesday night with the Supreme Court, asking it to halt an earlier appeals court decision that extended the count of the 2020 Census to the end of the month.> BREAKING: Trump administration files emergency application to halt census count at the Supreme Court pic.twitter.com/YHW7yknwcE> > — Steven Mazie (@stevenmazie) October 8, 2020In late September, U.S. District Judge Lucy Koh ruled that due to hurdles faced during the coronavirus pandemic, the Census Bureau could continue counting through the end of October; plaintiffs argued that the extension would reduce the risk of undercounting harder-to-access populations such as immigrants, minorities, and lower-income groups, The Washington Post reports. The Trump administration nevertheless set a "target date" of Oct. 5 to end the count, which Koh called a "violation" of her order."Defendants' dissemination of erroneous information; lurching from one hasty, unexplained plan to the next; and unlawful sacrifices of completeness and accuracy of the 2020 Census are upending the status quo, violating the Injunction Order, and undermining the credibility of the Census Bureau and the 2020 Census. This must stop," Koh said.Koh's order to extend the census count would bump back an analysis of the data from the end of the year to April 30, 2021; the Trump administration has argued against this, saying Census workers won't have enough time to analyze the data if counting extends to the end of the month. That's a concern for the administration because, as NPR notes, Trump wants to exclude unauthorized immigrants from the total and "if the bureau delivers the state counts by Dec. 31, Trump would be able to attempt to make that unprecedented change to who counts when reapportioning House seats among the states, even if he does not win re-election."More stories from theweek.com Mike Pence was the unlikely winner of the vice presidential debate The myth of Mike Pence's appeal Trump is shockingly bad at this

| Putin Is Facing the Toughest Fight of His Presidency as Former USSR Goes up in Flames Posted: 08 Oct 2020 08:36 AM PDT  Tuesday, October 7, was Russian President Vladimir Putin's 68th birthday, and, in keeping with his Soviet-style personality cult, it would normally have been an occasion for Putin to bask in public fanfare. But this year was different. Putin is holed up at his residence outside Moscow, where he has been since early April, avoiding infection from the coronavirus that is again rampant in Russia, while unrest surges in three countries of the former Soviet Union, and France and Germany are pushing for new EU economic sanctions against Russia because of the poisoning of Russian democrat Alexei Navalny.In honor of Putin's birthday, the Russian news agency Tass released the final episode of a series entitled 20 Questions with Vladimir Putin, a special interview project to commemorate Putin's twenty years as leader. In this episode Putin does not discuss pressing economic issues or international affairs, but rather his hobbies, family and other personal matters. Significantly, while Putin mentions that he enjoys his "sweet" grandchildren, he also confesses to his interviewer that "when you occupy this position, sometimes it feels like you cease to be a human being and become nothing more than a mere function."Funeral for Reporter Who Set Herself on Fire Reawakens Russia's Passion to Stand up to PutinNo wonder Putin has begun feeling like an automaton. Bad things have been happening to Putin in battalions lately. On July 9, just as the number of coronavirus cases in Russia had begun to decline and the virus seemed under control, mass protests erupted in the Siberian district of Khabarovsk over the arrest on unsubstantiated murder charges of the popular governor, Sergei Furgal.The unrest in Khabarovsk, a cause for deep concern in the Kremlin, was soon overshadowed by events in Belarus, where the largest political rally in over a decade took place in Minsk on July 30 in support of the opposition presidential candidate Svetlana Tikhanovskaya. Opposition protests, accompanied by mass arrests, plunged Belarus into turmoil after Belarusian President Alexander Lukashenko, in power for 26 years, reported a landslide victory in the August 9 presidential elections. Despite a severe crackdown, the protests have continued. On October 4, 100,000 people marched in Minsk demanding Lukashenko's resignation.The events in Belarus, a neighboring country that serves as Russia's strategic buffer to NATO states, pose a huge dilemma for Putin. The overthrow of an authoritarian leader like Lukashenko by a grassroots democratic movement would set a dangerous example that Russians might at some point follow. But if the Kremlin sends paramilitary forces into Belarus to support Lukashenko, as Putin suggested last month might be done, such a move could result in more Western sanctions against Russia, which would further damage Russia's faltering economy.Adding to the Kremlin's troubles, a violent conflict between Azerbaijan and Armenia erupted on September 27 over the disputed territory of Nagorno-Karabakh, which lies in Azerbaijan, but is controlled by ethnic Christian Armenians who are backed by the Armenian government. Russia would like to put an end to what is the deadliest fighting between Azerbaijan and Armenia in 25 years, but both countries are ignoring appeals for a cease-fire.Just days later, a political uprising engulfed the Central Asian state of Kyrgyzstan, yet another former Soviet republic. As with Belarus, claims of rigged elections ignited the turmoil. On October 5, following parliamentary elections the previous day, masses of demonstrators took to the streets, eventually seizing government buildings and the office of the president, Sooronbai Jeenbekov, who is now in hiding. Kyrgyzstan has seen years of political conflict, characterized more by fighting among elite rival groups and clans than by struggles for democracy, so the situation there is not comparable to that in Belarus, which has much greater implications for the Kremlin. Nonetheless, the Kremlin cannot ignore the chaos in a country that depends economically on Russia and houses a Russian military base.The spread of COVID-19, which has caused significant unemployment and economic disruption in Kyrgyzstan, contributed to the political discontent there, as it has elsewhere, including in Russia. (From January to September 2020, the number of bankruptcies of Russian citizens and individual entrepreneurs increased by 64.9 percent, to 77,000.) According to Russia's Levada-Center, a polling organization, Putin's approval ratings dropped to an all-time low of 59 percent when the coronavirus reached pandemic levels in April and May of this year, only to climb back up as the rates of infection declined. So the recent steep rise in Russia's coronavirus cases, with daily totals approaching the record high of 11,656 on May 11, is further cause for disquiet among Putin and his government.But of all the problems Putin faces as he continues to isolate, communicating with his political and military advisors mainly through video conferences, the most troubling may be that of Navalny, who the Kremlin failed to eliminate as planned on August 20. As with GRU defector Sergei Skripal, Russia's security services botched their job, and Navalny not only survived, but is speaking out publicly about the poisoning, which he attributes to Putin directly. And he is urging tougher western sanctions on members of Putin's inner circle. In a recent interview with Germany's Bild newspaper, cited by Radio Liberty, Navalny stressed that "the most important thing is to impose entry bans against those who profit from the regime and freeze their assets… They embezzle money, steal billions, and at the weekend they fly to Berlin or London, buy expensive apartments, and sit in cafes."Although the fearless Navalny plans to return to Russia once he has recovered from the poisoning to continue his opposition to the Putin regime, he does not pose an immediate political threat to Putin. According to an in-depth analysis last week by Levada-Center Deputy Director Denis Volkov, only one third of the 77 percent of Russians who had heard about Navalny's poisoning believe that it was a deliberate attack. Most think that it was a provocation by western security services or something Navalny did to himself. This is because of long-formed views of older Russians, who get their news on Russian state-controlled television, from which Navalny and other opposition politicians are banned. Navalny's audience comes from younger Russians who regularly consult the internet. Volkov points out that: "Russian television and the Internet do not just differ in interpretation, but present two different pictures of what is happening."But, Volkov says, this situation is changing: "For his supporters, Navalny is important, first of all, because he 'speaks the truth,' 'gives an alternative point of view,' 'fights against the authorities' and 'is not afraid.' Although Navalny gained his fame as the author of high-profile anti-corruption investigations, in his current image this characterization fades into the background. In the context of declining public support for top officials, his image as an alternative to the current government and its policies is becoming increasingly important. And this makes the Kremlin nervous."Volkov goes on to point out that Navalny's positive image is a result of his painstaking work on the internet, his effective team of like-minded colleagues and his network of regional headquarters: "For some of his supporters from the regions, Navalny was the first politician from Moscow whom they saw in person. All this allowed him to slowly but surely build up his authority." Although current Russian political views are dominated by the older generation, which is afraid of change and dislikes Navalny, it is only a matter of time, Volkov says, before the younger generation becomes more politically active.It is worth noting that Putin's birthday also marks the fourteenth anniversary of the as yet unsolved murder of Russian journalist and fierce Putin critic Anna Politkovskaya, who was gunned down in the stairwell of her Moscow apartment building on October 7, 2006. Referring to this "coincidence"—some say the killing was a birthday gift to Putin—St. Petersburg Parliamentary deputy Boris Vishnevsky, a member of the liberal Yabloko party, had this to say:"Today, sitting in his bunker, Putin will receive flattering congratulations from the stalwarts of his 'vertical' power base, who assure him that 'without Putin there will be no Russia.' But the event that happened on a previous October 7 [Politkovskaya's murder] will be remembered for a very long time. As well as Anna Politkovskaya herself. And today's event [Putin's birthday] will be forgotten as soon as the birthday boy loses power."Read more at The Daily Beast.Get our top stories in your inbox every day.

| Pence evades Roe v. Wade question by bringing up Soleimani, praising Barrett Posted: 07 Oct 2020 07:41 PM PDT  Vice President Mike Pence made it clear Tuesday night during the vice presidential debate that he is "pro-life" and "won't apologize for it." But he was more evasive on an earlier question about whether he would support his home state of Indiana banning all abortions, should Roe v. Wade get overturned by the Supreme Court.Pence began using his response time by addressing a topic related to a previous question -- the assassination of Iranian Gen. Qassem Soleimani, which was ordered by President Trump earlier this year -- and then, when turning back to the more recent query, he altered the topic slightly to praise Judge Amy Coney Barrett, whose nomination for the Supreme Court has raised speculation about the fate of Roe. But the vice president never explicitly addressed his stance on the matter. > Susan Page: "If Roe V. Wade was overturned what would you want Indiana to do?

| U.S. warns China against Taiwan attack, stresses U.S. 'ambiguity' Posted: 07 Oct 2020 05:31 PM PDT  The U.S. national security adviser warned China on Wednesday against any attempt to take Taiwan by force, saying amphibious landings were notoriously difficult and there was a lot of ambiguity about how the United States would respond. Robert O'Brien told an event at the University of Nevada in Las Vegas that China was engaged in a massive naval buildup probably not seen since Germany's attempt to compete with Britain's Royal Navy prior to World War One. "Part of that is to give them the ability to push us back out of the Western Pacific, and allow them to engage in an amphibious landing in Taiwan," he said.

| Thousands of coronavirus deaths recorded by ONS not due to Covid, new figures show Posted: 08 Oct 2020 05:25 AM PDT  Thousands of coronavirus deaths recorded by the Office for National Statistics (ONS) were not due to Covid, new figures show. On Thursday, the ONS published data comparing Covid deaths in England and Wales to those from influenza and pneumonia up to the end of August. In order to make the comparison, the body published, for the first time, figures for people who had died "due" to Covid rather than those who had the virus mentioned on their death certificate. While official figures show that 52,327 people died from coronavirus up to the end of August, 48,168 deaths were "due" to the disease – 4,149 fewer than official records show. Early in the pandemic, the World Health Organisation (WHO) warned that even if coronavirus appeared on a death certificate as a "significant condition", the death should not be included in the figures. WHO guidelines say such deaths "are not due to Covid-19 and should not be classified as such". The new figures back up research from academics at the Centre for Evidence-Based Medicine at Oxford University, who last month found that coronavirus was not the main cause of death for nearly one third of recorded Covid-19 victims in July and August. The team uncovered the discrepancy after comparing deaths from all causes to the coronavirus figures. Their analysis showed that around 30 per cent of people included in the coronavirus death toll over the summer months had died from other causes. It means someone who suffered a heart attack, or even died in a road traffic accident, may have been included in the figures if they had also tested positive for coronavirus at some point or if doctors believed the virus may have exacerbated their condition. Experts at Oxford are concerned that the problem with over-counting will get worse as more people in the population contract coronavirus. They are worried it means thousands more people died at the peak because of the pandemic response rather than because of the virus and have been wrongly included in the Covid-19 statistics. The new ONS figures also show that Covid was nearly four times deadlier than flu and pneumonia between January and August, with 48,168 deaths, compared with 13,619 for pneumonia and 394 deaths due to influenza. But the figures also showed that the deaths for flu and pneumonia were nearly 3,500 lower than would normally be expected based on the five-year average, suggesting that some people died of Covid instead (the graphic below shows how flu and Covid-19 compare).
