Remarkable video shows three people surviving after a 15o foot portion of the Santa Cruz Pier collapses. Two engineers and a project manager from a construction team fell into the ocean with the pier and were rescued as the portion that collapsed floated away.

Remarkable video captures the aftermath, and the lifeguards responding as even a skid loader was floating atop the debris.

CALIFORNIA – A portion of the Santa Cruz Wharf has collapsed and is floating away Monday, according to the National Weather Service.

Three people went into the water when the pier section collapsed, according to the Santa Cruz Police Department. Two of them were rescued by lifeguards, and a third person was able to get to safety on their own. All three were treated and released, according to Santa Cruz Fire Department officials.

The incident occurred around 12:45 p.m., officials said. About 150 feet of pier section at the end of the Northern California wharf collapsed.

The end of the pier that broke off had been shut down for repairs caused by prior storms. The portion, which included public restrooms and the closed Dolphin restaurant, floated about half a mile down the coast and wedged itself at the bottom of the San Lorenzo River.

The collapse comes amid a major swell that is expected to bring wave heights up to 26 feet high to parts of the California coast. The swell is expected to last through Tuesday.

“You are risking your life, and those of the people that would need to try and save you by getting in or too close to the water,” the NWS said.

California Gov. Gavin Newsom’s office said the governor has been briefed on the pier collapse. The California Governor’s Office of Emergency Services is coordinating with local agencies and officials. (read more)

Yikes! In the shocking video (screengrab below) you can see two of the workers floating away on top of the debris, shortly before lifeguard arrived to pull them to safety.

House Releases Gaetz Ethics Investigation Report

Posted originally on the CTH on December 23, 2024 | Sundance

The House Ethics panel does not release investigative findings after a member leaves the House. However, leaning on past precedent, the panel’s report said it “determined that it was in the public interest to release its findings even after a Member’s resignation from Congress,” while noting it did “not do so lightly.”

The release of the ethics panel investigation [Report Here] is a political smear operation against Matt Gaetz.

Read the report. Notice how it is worded to cast the worst light possible…. Decide for yourself.

Horrific Death by Illegal Alien – New York City Subway Rider Burned to Death by Previously Deported Illegal Migrant from Guatemala

Posted originally on the CTH on December 23, 2024

According to social media identification, the victim was 29-year-old Amelia Carter who fell asleep in a New York Subway car when an illegal alien from Guatemala took out a lighter and set her clothing on fire. The victim burned to death as NYPD officers arrived on scene.

The suspect, 33-year-old Sebastin Zapeta, was caught on another subway car today. [SOURCE] The NYPD said the killing happened at the Stillwell Avenue Subway station in Coney Island at about 7:30 a.m. Police Commissioner Jessica Tisch, during a press conference on Sunday evening, provided more insight into the heinous act.

“As the train pulled into the station, the suspect calmly walked up to the victim,” she said, explaining that the female victim was in a seated position. “The suspect used what we believe to be a lighter to ignite the victim’s clothing, which became fully engulfed in a matter of seconds.”

Officers were on patrol at the station when they smelled and saw smoke, prompting them to investigate the situation.

NEW YORK POST – The illegal Guatemalan migrant accused of setting a straphanger on fire and gawking as she burned to death was once deported — but sneaked back into the US and the Big Apple shelter system, sources told The Post.

The accused firebug, who has not yet been charged, first entered the US illegally at the Arizona border in 2018, but was nabbed just days later and shipped back home.

He later crossed the border again, dodging federal agents and finding his way north to the five boroughs — although it is unclear how long he was in the city before the horrific F train attack Sunday, the sources said.

What is clear is that by April 2023 he was staying at a Days Inn hotel on 36th Street which had been converted into a migrant shelter — the first of four tax-funded facilities in the city.

When he was issued a transit ticket in 2023, he gave an address of a shelter on Randall’s Island, the sources said.

On Sunday, police said he was at the Coney Island-Stillwell Avenue subway station, calmly watching the sleeping passenger he allegedly set on fire as she apparently burned to death. (read more)

BREAKING: The Subway Burning Victim’s Name was AMELIA CARTER.

She was 29 years old.

Biden State Media refuses to post her name and face, because she was a beautiful young white woman whose life was monstrously taken by one of Joe Biden’s savage and racist illegals.
