This is Garrison Hardie with your CrossPolitic Daily News Brief for Tuesday, March 28th, 2023. We start today with the heartbreaking situation that unfolded in Nashville TN, Three children and three staff members were gunned down at a private Christian school in Nashville on Monday before the shooter, a heavily armed 28-year-old woman, was killed by police, authorities said.

Nashville School Shooting: Police chief provides update- Play 0:05-2:42 https://www.nbcnews.com/news/us-news/school-shooting-tennessee-leaves-multiple-injured-shooter-dead-officia-rcna76841 Shooting at Nashville Christian school leaves at least 3 children and 3 adults dead, officials say The shooter was identified as Audrey Hale, a Nashville resident, three law enforcement officials briefed on the matter told NBC News. The shooter was killed on the school's second floor, a police spokesperson said. She had two "assault-type rifles and a handgun," according to the official. Students of the school, which serves preschool students through sixth graders, were being bused to Woodmont Baptist Church, two miles away, to be reunited with their parents. Police said they first got calls about the shooter at 10:13 a.m. CT and Nashville firefighters first reported their personnel were responding to an “active aggressor” at 10:39 a.m. CT. "The police department response was swift," police spokesperson Don Aaron told reporters. Five police officers came upon the shooter and two opened fire on her, Aaron said. The shooter entered the school through a "side entrance" on the first floor, he added. It was not clear how the shooter gained access to the school.

Bob Good (R-VA) and Sen. Bill Cassidy (R-LA) announced legislation Monday to scrap President Joe Biden's student loan forgiveness program. Under the resolution, Congress will express disapproval of the student loan cancellation plan to overturn the program, which is stuck in limbo amid a court battle. The resolution will need a simple majority to clear the Senate and is expected to draw a veto from Biden. On the Senate side, Sens. John Cornyn (R-TX) and Joni Ernst (R-IA) are backing the Congressional Review Act resolution alongside Cassidy, the ranking member of the Senate Health, Education, Labor, and Pensions Committee. Biden unveiled the student loan forgiveness plan last August to much fanfare from progressives. Under the initiative, borrowers with an annual income of $125,000 or less can have up to $10,000 in federal student loans canceled, while those who received Pell Grants during their schooling can have up to $20,000 wiped out. The program stems from the 2003 HEROES Act, which grants the executive power to relieve student loan debt in times of national emergency or war. Critics have pointed out that Biden deemed the COVID-19 pandemic was "over" in a 60 Minutes interview last year. The pandemic was used as justification for using the HEROES Act. Last November, a lower court in Texas halted the program amid pending legal challenges. The Supreme Court is expected to rule on the program's legality by June or July. The White House says it has amassed roughly 26 million applications and approved 16 million for relief, but cancellation has not yet taken place amid the legal wrangling. Biden used his veto power for the first time last week to reject a resolution that would've nixed a Labor Department rule permitting retirement plans to take into account environmental, social, and governance considerations in investment decisions. https://www.foxbusiness.com/markets/fdic-first-citizens-bank-reached-deal-purchase-silicon-valley-bank FDIC says First Citizens Bank has reached deal to purchase Silicon Valley Bank The Silicon Valley Bank finally has a buyer. On Sunday, the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (FDIC) announced First-Citizens Bank & Trust Company of Raleigh, North Carolina entered a purchase agreement for all deposits and loans of Silicon Valley Bridge Bank, National Association. "The 17 former branches of Silicon Valley Bridge Bank, National Association, will open as First–Citizens Bank & Trust Company on Monday, March 27, 2023," the FDIC said in a statement. "Customers of Silicon Valley Bridge Bank, National Association, should continue to use their current branch until they receive notice from First–Citizens Bank & Trust Company that systems conversions have been completed to allow full–service banking at all of its other branch locations," the statement continued. Depositors of the Santa Clara, California-located bank will automatically become depositors of First–Citizens Bank & Trust Company, according to the statement, and all deposits will be assumed and insured by First–Citizens Bank & Trust Company, up to the insurance limit. The FDIC said: "As of March 10, 2023, Silicon Valley Bridge Bank, National Association, had approximately $167 billion in total assets and about $119 billion in total deposits. Today's transaction included the purchase of about $72 billion of Silicon Valley Bridge Bank, National Association's assets at a discount of $16.5 billion." In addition, approximately $90 billion in securities and other assets will remain in the receivership for disposition by the FDIC. According to the statement, the FDIC and First–Citizens Bank & Trust Company entered into a "loss–share transaction" on all commercial loans it purchased from Silicon Valley Bank (SVB). The FDIC estimated SVB's failure cost approximately $20 billion, although a cost will be more accurately determined when the FDIC terminates the receivership, it said. The FDIC created Silicon Valley Bridge Bank after the California Department of Financial Protection & Innovation closed Silicon Valley Bank on Friday, March 10. All of the deposits—both insured and uninsured—were transferred to the bridge bank. Alps Precious Metals Group THE PAST WEEK HAS BROUGHT SOME “EXCITEMENT” TO THE MARKETS. BANK RUNS. STOCK COLLAPSES.

As announced by the city of Lake Oswego's police department, they "conducted a human sex trafficking mission with the assistance of the Clackamas County Sheriff's Office, Oregon City Police, Milwaukie Police, and Sandy Police," on Thursday, March 23, 2023. "During the operation, decoys (law enforcement officers) were contacted by men who offered to pay money in exchange for the decoys to perform requested sexual acts," the department stated, going on to describe how the eight suspects allegedly agreed to meet with the supposed trafficking victims, and were subsequently "arrested and charged with the relevant crimes." Suspects Stephen R. Berry, Maximilien Aquitaine, Austin L. Olson, Vincent S. Namauleg, German D. Pascual, Jake R. Walt, and Erik J. Bjorman were all cited and released for Commercial Sexual Solicitation, officials said. However, according to the Lake Oswego Police Department, the assistant principal of Centennial High School in Gresham, Oregon was hit with additional charges. "Terrance A. Schloth (1/11/71) of Gresham, OR initially gave a false name and refused to identify himself," police stated. "As a result, he was lodged at the Clackamas County Jail in order to get a positive identification. He was charged for Commercial Sexual Solicitation (ORS 167.008) and the additional charge of Giving False Information to a Peace Officer in Connection with a Citation (ORS 162.385)." According to 52-year-old Schloth's LinkedIn page, he had been working in education for over 27 years, going from a Reynolds High School physical education teacher, to educational leader, to dean of students, and eventually serving as the assistant principal in 2014 before moving to the Centennial School District. Schloth was a progressive. His LinkedIn boasts of anti-bullying and restorative justice initiatives. According to his school profile, two of the accused administrator's children attend Centennial as well. The school district placed Schloth on administrative leave following his arrest, Conan Daily reported.

Additional resources OHA COVID-19 vaccine website OHA COVID-19 resources for parents and guardians OHA FAQ: COVID-19 Vaccines for 5 through 11-year-olds CDC: COVID-19 Vaccines for Children and Teens CDC: Multisystem Inflammatory Syndrome in Children (MIS-C) associated with COVID-19 Ask a Black Doctor on The Numberz REACH webpage and REACH Facebook OHA Facebook Pediatric vaccinations and COVID-19 symptoms in children Q1: Children ages 5 through 11 can now get the Pfizer COVID-19 vaccine. Is it the same as the Pfizer vaccine for ages 12 and older? No. The vaccine authorized for children ages 5 through 11 is a new formulation for younger children. It's a smaller dose: The pediatric vaccine is 10 micrograms, while the vaccine for ages 12 and older is 30 micrograms. Q2: Where can we take our children to get this vaccine? Can we get them in same places we get the other vaccines? States are getting shipments of the vaccine in batches. But many, if not most, pediatric clinics will have the vaccine by the end of this week. You can visit GetVaccinated.Oregon.gov to find locations that carry the pediatric Pfizer vaccine. You can also call 211, or ask your child's doctor if they can provide the vaccine. Pharmacies can also provide the vaccine, but it may take time for pharmacies to be ready to vaccinate younger children. If you plan to get the vaccines at a pharmacy, you will need to call ahead and ask if the pharmacy has the pediatric Pfizer vaccine; and if they are ready to vaccinate younger children. Q3: What are the recorded side effects? For the COVID-19 vaccines, side effects do not appear to last longer than 48 hours. They include pain at the injection site; body aches; headaches or fever. These are signs that the vaccine is working to stimulate your immune system. Allergic reaction (anaphalaxis) is a rare side effect that has also been reported. So if you care for children who have had severe allergic reactions in the past, especially to vaccines, you should consult with their doctor. Q4: Are there long-term impacts of kids getting the vaccine? Will vaccines alter DNA or affect reproductive organs? Data from vaccination of adolescents have not demonstrated a significant risk of long-term side effects. Virtually all side effects from vaccines occur within a few days and at most six weeks following vaccination. The vaccines do not affect DNA. Data on COVID-19 vaccination of many women, including pregnant women, have not shown an effect on fertility or on the likelihood of miscarriage. Q5: What about myocarditis? Rare side effects such as myocarditis were not seen in the trials leading to authorization of the pediatric vaccine. The risk of vaccine associated myocarditis in this age group is thought to be lower than the risk noted in the older age groups. The group at highest risk of vaccine-associated myocarditis has been from the 2nd dose in males 16-17 years old, where it has been about 1 case out of every 14,500 people. The risk has been lower in males of other ages, and much lower in females. The risk of getting myocarditis from COVID-19 infection has been much higher. Q6: Why is it important to get children vaccinated? Aren't children less affected by COVID-19 than adults? Although children are at a lower risk of becoming severely ill with COVID-19 compared with adults, children can: Be infected with the virus that causes COVID-19, Get very sick from COVID-19, Have both short and long-term health complications from COVID-19, and Spread COVID-19 to others. Children with underlying medical conditions are also more at risk for severe illness from COVID-19 compared with other children. Children who get infected with the virus that causes COVID-19 can also develop serious complications like multisystem inflammatory syndrome (MIS-C). Q7. Can you tell us more about MIS-C? This condition causes different body parts become inflamed, including the heart, lungs, kidneys, brain, skin, eyes, or gastrointestinal organs. We know that many children with MIS-C had the virus that causes COVID-19 or had been around someone with COVID-19. This suggests that MIS-C may be a delayed immune response to COVID-19. MIS-C can be serious, even deadly, but most children who were diagnosed with this condition have gotten better with medical care. Q8. What about “COVID toes”? The American Academy of Dermatology has noted that COVID toes and rashes may also be signs of past or present COVID-19 in children. These types of rashes can also occur with other infections, like the measles. While COVID toes can appear at any age, children, teenagers, and young adults seem most likely to develop this condition. Many never develop other symptoms of COVID-19; and if they do, the symptoms tend to be mild. A recent study suggests that “COVID toes” are caused by having a powerful immune response to the COVID-19 virus. While COVID toes aren't harmful, other rashes may indicate MIS-C, which can be very serious. A skin rash is one of the symptoms the CDC advises parents to look for, in addition to: Stomach pain Bloodshot eyes Diarrhea Dizziness or lightheadedness (signs of low blood pressure) Vomiting Q7: What about children who have already had COVID-19? Should they get vaccinated? Yes. Natural immunity provides some but not complete protection, and there continues to be continued spread of COVID-19 in this age group despite the larger number of children with prior infection; a COVID-19 vaccination provides additional proven protection.

Aaron Lipsky is a 16-year-old junior at Asheville's A.C. Reynolds High School. But by many measures, Lipsky is far beyond his years. Lipsky is a clarinetist, rehearsing here with another clarinetist and a pianist for a concert he put together. Lipsky estimates his business, called Clarinet and Friends, drums up eight or nine performances every month at churches, house concerts and retirement communities throughout Western North Carolina. "It's kinda based on this idea the clarinet can play so many different styles of music that I just wanted to play as many concerts as possible," Lipsky said.
