The shocking attack, at 3am on Friday, showed the unidentified attacker beat down on his victim for two minutes at West 116 Street and Lenox Avenue station in Harlem.
At no point were any transit staff or police around to either take notice or attempt to stop the brutal beating.
Finally, she's able to grab a piece of the cane still in tact before the man begins to punch her head.
The clearly unwell man continues to punch and scream at his victim even while pants begin to fall.

[Very Well Health] Approximately 39.5% of people will be diagnosed with cancer at some point in their lifetimes.1 Some risk factors, like genetics, are not in a person's control, but diet and lifestyle choices are considered modifiable risk factors.
For example, research has shown that a very low intake of vegetables is linked to an increased risk of developing certain cancers.2 Key TJ, Bradbury KE, Perez-Cornago A, et al. Diet, nutrition, and cancer risk: what do we know and what is the way forward?. BMJ. 2020 Mar 5;368:m511. doi:10.1136/bmj.m511.
According to a new study, you might be able to reduce your risk of getting some cancers by eating more of one particularly powerful veggie.3
[NYP] The driving ban at Burning Man was lifted Monday — allowing the estimated 64,000 remaining attendees an opportunity to escape to the festival grounds that were transformed into a muddy mess from torrential downpours.
"Exodus operations" were officially underway in Black Rock Desert in Nevada thanks to drier grounds, festival organizers said in an update posted to its website around 2 p.m. local time.
An endless line of vehicles and RVs were slowly leaving the area Monday, according to images of the mass exit.
But even though the driving ban was no longer in effect, organizers urged those still in attendance to delay their departure until Tuesday to reduce some of the road congestion.
"Please know that while conditions are improving and roads are drying, the playa is still muddy and may be difficult to navigate in some neighborhoods and down certain streets," organizers said.
Attendees were also asked not to walk out of Black Rock Desert as others — including comedian Chris Rock and DJ Diplo — did over the weekend.
The pair had apparently walked six miles Saturday through mud before hitching a ride in the back of a fan’s pickup truck, according to a video posted on Instagram by Diplo, whose real name is Thomas Wesley Pentz.
"I legit walked the side of the road for hours with my thumb out," Diplo wrote.

I'm sitting in Bruno's (Gerlach's one restaurant) right now, and it seems pretty mellow.
As for this year's Burn: there are some people who are mentally and materially capable of dealing when things go wrong in the wilderness, and some who aren't. You don't know which one you are until you find out the hard way.
[eugyppius: a plague chronicle] The major German political parties will never investigate the pandemic response, because they are all complicit in it. Across the entire political landscape of the Federal Republic, the right-populist Alternative fur Deutschland stands alone in its critical stance towards lockdowns and mass vaccination, and only in the state parliament of Brandenburg do they have sufficient seats to gather an investigatory committee on the transgressions of the Corona era. On Friday, 1 September, the AfD-convened Brandenburg Corona Committee summoned Robert Koch-Institut Chief Lothar Wieler (the German counterpart to Anthony Fauci) and Brigitte Keller-Stanislawski, head of the Department of Pharmaceutical Safety and Diagnostics at the Paul-Ehrlich-Institut. They were questioned for six hours on the Covid vaccines.
[GatewayPundit] The White House announced Monday evening that Jill Biden has tested positive for COVID-19 while on vacation in Delaware and is "experiencing only mild symptoms." Jill Biden is double-vaxxed and twice boosted. Jill previously tested positive in August 2022 and again that month in a rebound case after treatment with Paxlovid. Jill’s case comes as a new wave of COVID hysteria has started with the emergence of a new variant (Pirola). Just like the cocaine, we'll prolly never know who brought it to the White House

Maybe she has the real thing, maybe it's a ruse to somehow validate and amplify the new mandates coming for us.
Interesting that she's probably had every booster for every variant.

If a demonstrable, much greater than margin-of-error majority of Americans don't simply reject any new "mandates" from the gummint's unelected "experts," you can stop talking about "liberty" once and for all.

new COVID vaccine, if available, will probably be a good idea for people over 50.
flu vaccine, probably good idea for everybody except very young, people with allergy issues and some other small population groups
re Mandates, remember almost all the mandates were local govt or education institutions of biz -- most of these places aren't going to go mandate unless death rates go way up

Remember the maximum deaths per day was Feb 2021, right after Joe took office - 6,8169 dead in a single day.
New cases max was Jan 2022 (Omicron) - seven-day average of 800,000 cases per day.
Today's numbers are 1% or 2% of the worst.

Or so they claim. Remember, this is the Bidens we're talking about. Everything they say, even when they say she's positive for covid, must be taken with a grain of salt.

[Epoch Times] Dr. Littell, a longtime family physician in Ocala and a medical school professor, began posting videos sharing his thoughts about COVID-19 testing, treatments, and vaccines early in the pandemic. He was frustrated to find his content often was pulled down from his YouTube channel.
But he fought against what he saw as censorship by moving the content to other platforms, such as Rumble, he said.
Then, in January 2022 and again five months later, he received warning letters from the American Board of Family Medicine (ABFM), the organization that issued his certification for his medical specialty. Can't hide from the Cancellers.
Dr. Littell spoke cordially to [hospital] board members from the podium, an Epoch Times reporter confirmed. He told board members how treating patients with ivermectin had been his key to success in helping them recover. And he praised hospital personnel for their work during the pandemic.
Shortly after that, security guards escorted him outside.
The month after Dr. Littell spoke in Sarasota, the board sent a letter saying he'd been de-certified for "spreading false, inaccurate, and misleading materials about COVID-19, COVID-19 vaccination, and treatment and mitigation of the virus," The Epoch Times confirmed.
In the letter, the board also criticized Dr. Littell for "offering to provide medical exemptions from vaccination" to patients across the country and "publicly comparing the U.S. public health system's response to the COVID-19 pandemic to Nazi Germany." Ouch!
Florida Surgeon General Joseph Ladapo also voiced support for Dr. Littell. "What they’re doing is being a bully," he said in an interview with The Floridian. "It’s not going to age well. "I read the letter from the Board, and it’s dripping with political animosity."
In July, Dr. Littell received word that the board had reviewed his case and retroactively de-certified him for three months, from March 16 to June 16. He never stopped seeing patients. "It's like a slap on the wrist so they’d feel good about it, but wouldn't, presumably, have to face any legal action," he said. So they decertified him and re certified him at the same time. Clever!
"The way I read the letter, it's sort of like a warning," Dr. Littell said. The board, he said, seemed to be sending the warning, "If you act up again, we know it's a privilege to have this board certification, and it can be removed at any time."
And the next time, the punishment is likely to escalate. So the elitists conceded the battle, but the war continues.
He sees bringing people together to unite in their pushback against prevailing opinions as a revolutionary concept.
"It's really no different than what our Founding Fathers did," Dr. Littell said. "They realized that they were victims of repression. But there also were people comfortable with the status quo. That’s what is in our medical schools right now and is what we all need to fight against.
"People should be allowed to question and use their God-given intellect, and not be censored or disciplined for doing so."

[BenarNews] Southeast Asian countries and Taiwan on Thursday objected to China’s latest version of its territorial map because of new boundaries that reach waters they claim as well in the South China Sea. Beijing released the map on Monday amid tensions with the United States over Taiwan, and days after China Coast Guard ships formed a cordon to block Philippine supply boats delivering supplies to the BRP Sierra Madre, Manila’s military outpost in Ayungin Shoal (Second Thomas Shoal), in the disputed waters.
"This latest attempt to legitimize China’s purported illusory sovereignty and jurisdiction over Philippine features and maritime zones has no basis under international law, particularly the 1982 United Nations ...an organization originally established to war on dictatorships which was promptly infiltrated by dictatorships and is now held in thrall to dictatorships... Convention on the Law of the Sea (UNCLOS)," the Department of Foreign Affairs in Manila said in a statement.

Correct me if I'm wrong, but my impression of the ADL is that it screeches "antisemitism" for many reasons that have nothing to do with the legitimate definition of antisemitism.

[Epoch Times] Queensland's government is set to remove a significant COVID-19 vaccination mandate that has led to the resignation or dismissal of thousands of staff over the last two years. Queensland is northeastern Oz, with the city of Brisbane and the Gold Coast and Sunshine Coast. The final decision will come after a two-week consultation with various stakeholders including staff, unions, and patient safety advocacy groups, Queensland’s Health Minister Shannon Fentiman said. The decision could allow unvaccinated public health staff to head back to work in a fortnight.
"We took strong action during COVID to keep our community safe and the death rate from COVID in Queensland is significantly below the national average," Ms. Fentiman wrote in a post on X.
"But circumstances have changed and COVID is no longer a public health emergency and for most of us life has returned to normal."
She said that over a thousand workers were stood down from the mandate during the pandemic.
"There were about 575 nurses, but there have also been about 1,000 resignations, some of whom were not compliant with the vaccination mandate," Ms. Fentiman said. I wouldn't go back, but then, I'm retired.
Paying interest is un-Islamic, so clearly this is not actually happening. And so Turkiye can continue swanning around the Ummah as neo-Ottoman Sultan Recep Tayyip Erdoğan I (the much beloved) planned all along, without concern that the money is about to run out.
[Rudaw] The Sick Man of Europe Turkey ...the only place on the face of the earth that misses the Ottoman Empire... ’s statistics body on Monday announced the country’s annual inflation in the month of August as 58.9 percent, rising eleven percent from the previous month, nearly a week after the central bank increased interest rated to 25 percent.
In the report by the Ottoman Turkish Statistical Institute, the consumer price index (CPI) in August of 2023 is placed at 58.94 percent, a significant decrease from the same month in 2022 which saw 80.21 percent. The CPI is a measure of inflation, by evaluating the average monthly change in prices paid by the consumers for a basket of consumer goods and services.
Under Ottoman Turkish President His Enormity, Sultan Recep Tayyip Erdogan the First ...Turkey's version of Mohammed Morsi but they voted him back in so they deserve him. It's a sin, a shame, and a felony to insult the president of Turkey. In Anatolia did Recep Bey a stately Presidential Palace decree, that has 1100 rooms. That's 968 more than in the White House, 400 more than in Versailles, and 325 more than Buckingham Palace, so you know who's really more important... ’s unorthodox economic policies, the interest rate was slashed to 8.5 percent, which saw inflation skyrocket up to 85.5 percent in 2022, a 24-year high. The increase resulted in an aggravated cost of living crisis inside Turkey, forcing the government to increase the minimum wage several times.
After his re-election in May’s presidential elections, Erdogan appointed Mehmet Simsek as the finance minister and former Wall Street executive Hafize Gaye Erkan as the governor of the central bank.
Erkan quickly increased interest rated to 15 percent in June in order to combat inflation and the rapid depreciation of the Ottoman Turkish lira. In late August, Erken increased the interest rate to 25 percent.
In May, net foreign reserves of the central bank dropped into negative territory and the annual inflation rate was announced as 39.59 percent, according to Turkey’s statistics body.
Erdogan following re-election promised to improve the economy and signaled a pivot away from his unorthodox policies of the past, beginning with appointing Simsek to the role of finance minister.
During the ceremony to hand over power, Simsek emphasized the need to return to more "rational economic policies." His comment was hailed as a new start for Turkey to regain economic stability.

Playing two ends against the middle doesn't pay (on the long run) Recep.
[Epoch Times] A federal appeals court in New Orleans ruled on Friday that the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) had overstepped its authority over the use of ivermectin off-label to treat COVID-19. Thus overruling the previous judge, who ruled the FDA's sovereign immunity prohibited lawsuits. The doctor's lawsuit is thus allowed to proceed. Judge Don Willett wrote for the three person panel that also included Jennifer Walker Elrod and Edith Brown Clement. "FDA is not a physician. It has authority to inform, announce, and apprise—but not to endorse, denounce, or advise. The Doctors have plausibly alleged that FDA’s Posts fell on the wrong side of the line between telling about and telling to. As such, the Doctors can use the APA to assert their ultra vires claims against the Agencies and the Officials."
The anti-ivermectin messaging put out by FDA officials also drew the ire of Judge Willett, who wrote that "Left unmentioned in most of that messaging: ivermectin also comes in a human version. And while the human version of ivermectin is not FDA-approved to treat the coronavirus, some people were using it off-label for that purpose."
In the ruling social media posts made by the agency were cited as evidence, citing that "Even tweet-sized doses of personalized medical advice are beyond FDA’s statutory authority," he wrote.
The FDA on Aug. 21, 2021, wrote on Twitter: "You are not a horse. You are not a cow. Seriously, y’all. Stop it."
The ruling comes as a blow to the FDA. The agency had argued that the case should not be allowed to move forward, claiming that the complaints didn’t overcome the FDA’s "sovereign immunity," which protects government entities from many civil lawsuits regarding their responsibilities. Sovereign immunity does not protect them if they are outside their area of responsibility.
