3 MAJOR criminal cases have had their verdicts overturned in recent weeks but this one is INSANITY. His verdict was overturned b/c the Clerk of Court, who had a BOOK DEAL pending, not only told the jury REPEATEDLY to vote guilty but had a juror EXPELLED for leaning towards not guilty and used her domestic violence situation against her to do it. INCREDIBLE.

It’s a timely moment for that class of academics who are, while positioning themselves as Democratic Party members, complete quislings — eager not only to comply in advance, but to throw further-left colleagues, projects, fields under the bus for a bit of power and recognition

Cameo ~ She's Strange ~ (1984) The track was praised for successfully blending traditional R&B & funk with cutting-edge electronic synths & early hip-hop elements. The consensus celebrated its infectious danceability & clever vocal arrangements. #HipHop

This was cutting edge funk/R&B in '84. Larry Blackmon was tapped into the "cool" Black scenes. Straight up drum machines. The groove is eerie. THERE IS RAPPING. Cameo was one of the few funk bands to survive the Prince onslaught. If you only know them from "Word Up" fix that.

Oh my god. A SECOND person died of exposure last winter after being released by DHS in the middle of the winter and far away from where they lived.
It’s happened again:
A migrant was released from jail (charges dropped) and picked up by ICE.
ICE decides not to deport.
ICE drops migrant off far from home.
Migrant dies in the cold.
Manner of death: Homicide.
Nearly identical to Buffalo case.

The 10 hours of erecting scaffolding wasn’t to strip the letters (something that 30 minutes in a boom lift could accomplish), it was to conceal the view with a curtain because Trump couldn’t handle the optics of the letters of his name being plucked off the building.
Workers continue to deploy a curtain to further conceal the removal of Trump’s name from the Kennedy Center

I miss the era when having enormous wealth was seen as profoundly embarrassing and potentially cause for damnation, to the extent that robber barons would attempt to rid themselves of their massive fortunes by building libraries, museums, concert halls, research universities.

UnitedHealth continuously denied rehab care for seniors on Medicare Advantage recovering from surgery. But when patients appealed, they reversed 99.7% of denials.
So they knew the denials were wrong, they just hoped people wouldn't fight back.
That's a predatory business model. No more profit-driven claim denials: we need Medicare for All.
