Given the kind of women who are likely to go to prison, I'm not sure that moving from the men's cellblock to the women's would be such a good idea. But then, if you're the kind of guy who would go to prison you might not be so concerned about it.

As disgusting as this POS is, it deserves it’s day in court as so far it’s only been charged. DOE is right to avoid any unlawful
termination lawsuits.
However, after it’s been found guilty, swift dismissal must follow. But i expect the Bidet regime will do the wrong thing and promote the thing. Ambassador to San Francisco, perhaps?

Seems a Secty of the Interior told an off color joke and the mob demanded his resignation and got it during the Reagan era. You're not going to have a real opposition party till they learn to say FOAD.

I cannot imagine that this POS still has an active Clearance given pending felony charges. So, aside from administrivia, what does it do at work? A felony conviction should end it's federal employment opportunities, but the power of the GHEY coalition in the Puppet Show is vast, far beyond pesky things like law and standards!

I would be delighted to draft the required Serious Incident Report (SIR) and request for suspension of access pending the outcome of investigation.
What about pregnant black men?
[FoxBusiness] San Francisco has another guaranteed income program for transgender residents that provides payments of up to $1,200 each month
A guaranteed income program that provides monthly checks to Black pregnant women in San Francisco will expand to other counties in California. They'll also pay for abortions. Go figure
The Abundant Birth Project began in June 2021 to serve pregnant women with $1,000 monthly payments over 12 months to 150 people. The program is intended to "reduce the racial birth disparities by easing economic stress."
On Tuesday, San Francisco's Department of Public Health announced a $5 million grant in state funding to expand the program in Alameda, Contra Costa, Los Angeles and Riverside counties for the next two to three years.

It will serve another 425 mothers and "other birthing parents" with funds from the California Department of Social Services, the city said.
"This guaranteed income program helps ease some of the financial burdens that all too often keep mothers from being able to prioritize their own health and ultimately impact the health of their babies and family," San Francisco Mayor London Breed said in a statement. "We hope the Abundant Birth Project serves as a model to address racial birth disparities throughout the region and state, and across the country."
San Francisco launched the first Abundant Birth Project in partnership with Expecting Justice, which advocates for safe births for Black, Asian American and Pacific Islander women.
The city noted that Black women are twice as likely to have a preterm birth than White women and experience the highest infant and maternal mortality rates because of wealth and income disparities.
"For so long, Black women have been excluded from the resources needed to have safe and healthy pregnancies. This funding will provide pregnant people with economic stability during this critical phase in their lives while allowing public health institutions to test a novel and promising public health intervention," said Dr. Zea Malawa, director of Expecting Justice.
San Francisco recently launched another guaranteed income program for transgender residents. The program will provide low-income transgender residents with payments of up to $1,200 each month for up to 18 months.

So shaft all the good people who waited to get married and have children until they had some idea what they were doing and could afford it. Tax the working white moms who knew when they got pregnant they could count on their husbands and families for support. Tax those people up the wazoo and buy votes with their money. Yes, Californians reelected Newsom even though they had a good, strong Republican candidate running against him so I guess the majority of them deserve it. Too bad I'm not a part of that majority. :(

[GP] It turns out that the Cybersecurity and Infrastructure Security Agency (CISA) has been colluding with Maricopa County officials to censor information they disagree with surrounding elections in Maricopa County. Stephen has that "Oh bugger, I just filled my Spandex biking shorts" look.
Maricopa County Recorder Stephen Richer actually met with the CISA Cybersecurity Advisory Committee to get their help on fighting information that was coming out about the 2020 election in Maricopa County. Richer even suggested that the government agency should collude with media outlets like FOX and CNN with "bootcamps."
Previously, Stephen Richer tweeted that electronic tabulation and voter registration information played a role in the biggest cybersecurity threat to our elections. In the 2022 elections, voting machine failures at over 3o% of polling locations in Maricopa County left voters disenfranchised and unable to vote.

[IsraelTimes] Prosecutors say Tennessee resident led the mob’s charge against officers on January 6, shoved them and tried to rip the helmet off of one of them
A Tennessee man who authorities say came to Washington ahead of the Jan. 6, 2021, riot prepared for violence in a car full of weapons and assaulted officers who were trying to defend the Capitol was sentenced Friday to more than five years behind bars.
Ronald Sandlin, 35, of Millington, Tennessee, pleaded guilty in September to conspiracy to obstruct an official proceeding and assaulting, resisting, or impeding officers.
Two other men were separately each sentenced Friday to four years in prison Friday for their actions connected to the riot.
Sandlin, who authorities say adhered to the QAnon conspiracy theory, and two other men traveled from Tennessee to the Washington area in a rental car packed with two pistols, two magazines of ammunition, cans of bear mace, gas masks, body armor, several knives, and other gear, according to prosecutors.
Two days before the insurrection, Sandlin posted on social media a picture of another man lying on a bed holding a gun and wrote: "My fellow patriot ... sleeping ready for the boogaloo Jan 6," according to court papers. Authorities say "boogaloo" referred to to civil war.
On Jan. 6, prosecutors say Sandlin led the mob’s charge against officers at two points at the Capitol, shoved officers and tried to rip the helmet off of one of them. He shouted at officers: "Your life is not worth it.. you’re going to die, get out of the way," according to court papers.
Inside the building, Sandlin smoked a marijuana joint in the Rotunda of the Capitol and stole a book from an office, prosecutors say.
Sandlin’s lawyer wrote in court papers that his client "allowed himself to believe in lies and disinformation." In a letter to the judge, Sandlin apologized to the officers he assaulted and the politicians at the Capitol.
"I believe January 6, 2021 was a national tragedy for everyone involved and I hope my judgment will help the healing process moving forward," he wrote.
Separately on Friday, Nicholas Ochs, 36, the founder of the Hawaii Proud Boys chapter, and Nicholas DeCarlo, 32, a Fort Worth, Texas man who was with Ochs on Jan. 6, were each sentenced to four years in prison for their roles in the riot.
Ochs, a one-time Republican candidate for the Hawaii House of Representatives, and DeCarlo both pleaded guilty in September to obstructing Congress’ certification of the vote.
Ochs and DeCarlo were captured in a widely shared photo giving a thumbs-up sign in front of a Capitol door that had been defaced with the words "Murder the Media," — the name of the social media channel they shared. Authorities say DeCarlo scrawled the words on the door.
They attended the "Stop the Steal" rally near the White House on the morning of Jan. 6 and then marched together to the Capitol.
Video shows them throwing smoke grenades toward a line of police trying to keep the mob from the stage set up for Biden’s inauguration, authorities say. DeCarlo also rummaged through a Capitol police officer’s bag and stole a pair of plastic handcuffs, prosecutors said.
Ochs posted on Twitter a picture of the men smoking cigarettes inside the Capitol, and the caption said: "Hello from the Capital lol," according to court papers.
Ochs’ attorney, Ed MacMahon, said in court papers that his client, who served in the Marines, "regrets and is deeply embarrassed by his juvenile behavior exhibited at the Capitol." After the hearing, MacMahon called the punishment a "long prison sentence for somebody that didn’t commit a single act of violence."
DeCarlo’s lawyer wrote that his client has expressed remorse and "in order to help make amends" voluntarily conducted a lengthy interview with the House committee investigating the attack.
Ochs and DeCarlo are among dozens of members and associates of the Proud Boys who have been charged in the Capitol riot.
The group’s former national chairman, Enrique Tarrio, and other leaders are set to stand trial this month on seditious conspiracy and other serious charges for what authorities allege was a plot to stop the transfer of presidential power from Republican Donald Trump ...Oh, noze! Not him!... to Democrat Joe The Big Guy Biden ...46th president of the U.S. Being a self-defined foreign policy whiz kid means never having to say you're sorry... More than 900 people have been charged in the riot with offenses ranging from misdemeanors for illegally entering the Capitol to seditious conspiracy.
The longest sentence so far has been 10 years in prison for a former New York City police officer who used a metal flagpole to assault an officer at the Capitol.
Last month, Oath Keepers founder Stewart Rhodes and the leader of the group’s Florida chapter Kelly Meggs were convicted of seditious conspiracy for their roles in the riot. They are awaiting sentencing.
[ZERO] A federal judge on Dec. 7 ruled that three high-ranking officials within the Biden administration will not be required to testify under oath at depositions in a lawsuit that alleges federal government collusion with Big Tech companies to censor users.
U.S. District Judge Terry Doughty in October ordered the depositions of Surgeon General Vivek Murthy, Cybersecurity and Infrastructure Security Agency (CISA) Director Jen Easterly, and Rob Flaherty, a deputy assistant to President Joe Biden, as part of a lawsuit brought in May by Republican Attorneys General Eric Schmitt of Missouri and Jeff Landry of Louisiana.
The attorneys general claim that high-ranking members of the government colluded and coerced social media companies to "suppress disfavored speakers, viewpoints, and content" or what they claimed was "misinformation" regarding COVID-19.
In November, Doughty, a Trump appointee, also said that Jen Psaki, a former White House press secretary who now works for MSNBC, must also sit for a deposition as part of the case.
However on Thursday, Doughty ruled that three of the individuals—Murthy, Easterly, and Flaherty—will no longer be required to appear for a deposition after a federal appeals court blocked the move last month, stating that the judge had failed to consider whether alternative and less "intrusive" means could be used to obtain the information being sought.
[Breitbart] Elon Musk’s Twitter released another batch of internal discussions on Friday, which revealed that executives at the social media company had met with federal agencies amid the Hunter Biden laptop story, and that the FBI reported tweets it didn’t like to workers at the company.
On Friday night, journalist Matt Taibbi posted a lengthy Twitter thread — the third release of what are known as “Twitter Files,” which include revelations that federal agencies meddled with posts on the platform, among other notable issues.
Internal conversations via the messaging program Slack showcased Twitter executives “getting a kick out of intensified relationships with federal agencies,” Taibbi noted.
“I’m a big believer in calendar transparency. But I reached a certain point where my meetings became… very interesting… to people and there weren’t meeting names generic enough,” former Twitter “Trust and Safety” head Yoel Roth said in an internal chat.
In a follow-up message, a seemingly-amused Roth went on to suggest that his meetings should be titled, “Very Boring Business Meeting That Is Definitely Not About Trump :)” and “DEFINITELY NOT meeting with the FBI I SWEAR.”
Other documents suggest that the FBI, DHS, and Office of the Director of National Intelligence (DNI) met with Roth about the New York Post‘s bombshell Hunter Biden laptop story, which Twitter — and Facebook — infamously censored during the 2020 presidential election.
“We blocked the NYP story, then we unblocked it… and now we’re in a messy situation where our policy is in shambles, comms is angry, reporters think we’re idiots,” Roth lamented in an internal chat. “In short, FML [Fuck My Life].”
“Some of Roth’s later Slacks indicate his weekly confabs with federal law enforcement involved separate meetings,” Taibbi added, sharing another document in which Roth “ghosts the FBI and DHS, respectively, to go first to an ‘Aspen Institute thing,’ then take a call with Apple.”
In another document, the FBI can be seen reporting tweets to Twitter executives, who then sent the tweets to their internal Slack channel called “enforcement.”
“Here, the FBI sends reports about a pair of tweets, the second of which involves a former Tippecanoe County, Indiana Councilor and Republican named @JohnBasham claiming ‘Between 2% and 25% of Ballots by Mail are Being Rejected for Errors.'”
“We just got a report from the FBI concerning 2 tweets,” an internal Twitter chat reads.
“The FBI-flagged tweet then got circulated in the enforcement Slack,” Taibbi explained. “Twitter cited Politifact to say the first story was ‘proven to be false.'”
Taibbi added that while he was told the Trump campaign and Republicans had also flagged content, he couldn’t find any of it mentioned in Twitter’s “enforcement” Slack channel.
“Examining the entire election enforcement Slack, we didn’t see one reference to moderation requests from the Trump campaign, the Trump White House, or Republicans generally. We looked. They may exist: we were told they do. However, they were absent here,” Taibbi said.
In addition to federal agencies using Twitter employees as lackeys to censor content on social media, Friday night’s Twitter Files also revealed that executives at the company had already established the “framework” for banning Donald Trump’s account well before the events of January 6, and used the Capitol riots as their excuse to finally blacklist the President.
The thread starts here:

Did the FBI object to tweets of the knowingly false letter from 50+ deep state operatives who said the Hunter Laptop was a Russian misinformation campaign?
[Federalist] The head of Twitter’s censorship scheme to shadowban conservative accounts and posts across the platform previously worked as an operative for the FBI and CIA.
According to a now-unavailable LinkedIn profile discovered by journalist Andy Ngo, Jeff Carlton, whose prior work included serving as a federal intelligence officer, became the leading member of Twitter’s Strategic Response Team (SRT) last month. As revealed in a batch of "Twitter Files" released by reporter Bari Weiss on Thursday, SRT is one of the main groups at Twitter tasked with shadowbanning conservative accounts and tweets on the platform.
In his LinkedIn profile, Carlton states that his role as SRT head involves "resolving the highest-profile Trust & Safety escalations," as well as managing "crises and non-standard incidents in content moderation and customer support to promote ’healthy public conversations.'" Before leading the group in his new role, Carlton served as a senior program manager at Twitter, starting in May 2021.

If Twitter executives told people, especially candidates for elective office, they would not be shadow banned and then shadow banned them anyway, isn't that grounds for a civil suit? Isn't that like false advertising? Hope Elon doesn't have to pay the damages out of his own pocket.

The US Congress on Thursday passed landmark legislation to protect same-sex marriage under federal law, and President Joe The Big Guy Biden ...46th president of the U.S. The nincompoop who dumped Afghanistan. The copier doesdn't exist that could reelect him.... has vowed to quickly sign the measure.
The vote in the House of Representatives saw 39 Republicans join a united Democratic majority in a rare show of bipartisanship, provoking loud cheers on the floor less than 10 days after the Senate passed the same bill.
The House had earlier approved legislation similar to the Senate’s, but needed Thursday’s vote to reconcile minor differences.
Biden has dubbed marriage equality one of his legislative priorities and has said he will "promptly and proudly" sign the bill into law.
The new legislation, known as the Respect for Marriage Act, does not require states to legalize same-sex marriage but does require them to recognise a marriage so long as it was valid in the state where it was performed.
It repeals previous legislation defining marriage as a union between a man and a woman, and also protects interracial couples by requiring states to recognise legal marriages without regard to "sex, race, ethnicity or national origin."
House Democrats had worked with urgency to get the bill passed while they still control Congress. Republicans won a narrow majority in the chamber in midterm elections in November and will take control there in January, while Democrats retain narrow control of the Senate.
The Supreme Court ...the political football known as The Highest Court in the Land, home of penumbrae and emanations... in a 2015 decision legalized same-sex marriages. Hundreds of thousands of couples have married since then.

I'm certainly glad that all our other pressing problems have been solved.
But, per #2 above, I suspect that the current Supreme Court could rule that this is a matter for the states, not the federal government. Here's hoping!
