WORDS OF WISDOM: “Life is never easy. There is work to be done and obligations to be met – obligations to truth, to justice, and to liberty.” — John F. Kennedy, 35th U.S. President, May 29, 1917, to Nov. 22, 1963

WAYNE, New Jersey (WABC) — A swim team in New Jersey says it’s getting kicked out of its pool.

The Rebels Aquatic Team says the Wayne Community Center told them the team can no longer use the facility, leaving more than 100 youth swimmers without a pool in the middle of the season.

The team has been using the pool for practices and meets.

The organizers thought they had a five-year commitment based on the contract but found out this week it was not enough to save them a space to use the pool.

The swim club was told this week that they have to shut down on June 24, but their swim season does not conclude until August 5.

The organizers began this effort to get kids into swimming at the height of the COVID lockdowns, and it has grown ever since.

Parents went online after getting word about being booted from the community pool and expressed a lot of frustration.

They have a practice Thursday afternoon and feel their kids are not getting a fair shake from the town.

Eyewitness News reached out to the mayor’s office and the Wayne Department of Recreation, who said they had no comment about this pool controversy.

LEBANON, Pa. — A Lebanon County, Pennsylvania man is charged with making terroristic threats and accused of creating a hit list of 20 Democrats, many from the Philadelphia region.

Adam Berryhill’s X handle goes by Pennsylvania Militia.

On it, state police say he posted, “I can’t wait for Memorial Day Operation.”

His thread also displayed guns, and he called local politicians gun-grabbing communists. His alleged hit list included state Rep. Malcolm Kenyatta of North Philadelphia.

“I’ll tell you to a certain degree, not that much shock. You know this is not the first time I’ve been the victim of threats,” Kenyatta told ABC Philadelphia affiliate WPVI.

He says the threats have no impact on his governing.

State police say among the other local Democrats named by Berryhill are congressional candidates Sharif Street, Chris Raab and others, like state Rep. Morgan Cephas.

A routine investigation by the state police detail assigned to state House Speaker Joanna McClinton led to the discovery of the alleged terroristic threats.

Berryhill was arrested and charged last week.

“It’s not about being a Democrat or Republican or an independent. This is about American belief, that in America, Philadelphia, where it all started, that you get to say you believe without any threat of violence,” Kenyatta said.

Court records say Berryhill also criticized Republicans. In another post, he said they need to stop whining and claimed the only solution is war.

Charging documents say Berryhill has been involuntarily committed in the past and is prohibited from possessing firearms.

“It’s deeply uncomfortable for anybody to be doing a job just serving your neighbors. You did not sign up to be in the crosshairs of someone who is unhinged and violent,” Kenyatta said from his North Philadelphia district offices.

Court records say Berryhill was unable to make bail.

Calls to his public defender have not been returned.

Pennsylvania Gov. Josh Shapiro issued the following statement on the arrest:

“Today, I spoke with Speaker McClinton and Leader Costa about the terroristic threats made against members of their caucuses in the State Legislature. I told them that while these threats of political violence seek to intimidate and silence, my administration will continue to do everything in our power to keep them safe and ensure their members can continue to make their voices heard as the people’s elected representatives.

We are experiencing a dangerous rise in threats of political violence across the Commonwealth and I appreciate the quick action of the Pennsylvania State Police and the Lebanon County District Attorney to charge and arrest the perpetrator. It is also clear a better process is necessary to notify elected officials directly when these threats are made. Lt. Colonel Bivens has spoken extensively with House and Senate leadership and their teams, and the Pennsylvania State Police have instituted a new process to notify members of the General Assembly immediately and directly of any and all threats of violence against them.

It is on all of us to combat hate speech and political violence, and I call on all of my fellow Pennsylvanians and fellow leaders to stand up against this dangerous rising tide of violence we are seeing across our country.”
