[DailyWire] A new report released on Monday alleges that Alabama Democratic congressional candidate Adia McClellan Winfrey has falsely claimed to be a clinical psychologist and is breaking the law by repeating her claim as she is not licensed.
Winfrey has repeatedly referred to herself as a clinical psychologist "on Twitter, in interviews, on her campaign website, on her LinkedIn page and in speeches in front of Democratic Party groups," The Huffington Post reported.
The Post notes that Winfrey has lived in several states and has never been licensed as a psychologist in any of them, adding, "If they aren’t licensed, they are violating the law."
The Post did verify that Winfrey graduated from Wright State University in 2008 where she received a doctorate in psychology, but that doesn't mean she was ever licensed as a psychologist.
"I’ve never been a licensed psychologist," Winfrey told The Post. "I did complete the hours required for licensure ― but right when I was going to be studying for licensure exam, that’s when my curriculum took off."
According to Alabama law, "No person shall hold himself or herself out to the public as a licensed psychological technician or practice as a psychological technician unless licensed by the board. Failure to comply with this section shall constitute a Class B misdemeanor."
If law enforcement officials decided to press charges against Winfrey, she could face up to six months in prison and a fine of up to $3,000. In today's world, of course, all that matters is that she considers herself to be a Clinical Psychologist.

Liz Warren practiced law in MA without a valid MA law license, and nothing happened to her. Nothing will happen to this broad either, because RACISM!
[FoxNews] Nearly 120,000 names were left off the voting rolls in Los Angeles during Tuesday's crucial jungle primary due to a printing error, local officials said.
The 118,522 voters' names were erroneously excluded across more than a thousand precincts in the state, local officials said.
"We apologize for the inconvenience and concern this has caused," Dean C. Logan, the county clerk, said in a statement. "Voters should be assured their vote will be counted."
The local registrar's office has said registered voters who have been affected by the printing error can cast provisional ballots that will be counted, Los Angeles' KTLA reported.
But former Los Angeles mayor Antonio Villaraigosa, who is locked in a fierce primary fight for the number-two spot in the California gubernatorial race, called for polls to remain open longer as a result of the snafu.
"I'm calling on @LACountyRRCC to keep the polls open longer because of the unprecedented number of voters left off the voter rolls," Villaraigosa wrote on Twitter. "You have the right to vote. If you were turned away, return to your polling place & exercise your right to vote by requesting a provisional ballot."
Los Angeles County Democratic Party Chair Mark Gonzalez said in a statement that many voters probably will be too frustrated to take the city up on that offer, though.
"While it is true that voters whose names are not on their precinct's voter roll can and must obtain that provisional ballot to cast their vote, it is an inevitability that many will have seen their names not on the voter roll and be turned off from voting entirely," Gonzalez said.
"We will work closely with Dean Logan and the County Registrar to ensure this does not happen again and that every vote is counted," he added.
Newsom is the clear front-runner in the race.
Because of California's "jungle primary ," the top two vote-getters -- regardless of party -- advance to a runoff in November.
Newsom has said he would prefer to face a Republican and it's understandable because Democrats dominate in California. Republican registration has fallen for years and the party has not won a statewide contest in more than a decade, when Arnold Schwarzenegger was re-elected governor in 2006.
Just because Donald Trump did it, they all think they can. But who now remembers Carly Fiorina, or even Ross Perot? Still, according to the Keynesian view of economics, all the money he spends on losing his race will grow the economy, so there’s that.
[DAWN] Howard Schultz, who built a small Seattle coffee chain into the global powerhouse Starbucks, announced on Monday he was retiring from the company, fueling speculation he may seek the Democratic presidential nomination in 2020.
Schultz, 64, has been serving as executive chairman of Starbucks since stepping down as chief executive in April of last year and handing over to Kevin Johnson.
Schultz will leave the company at the end of the month and take on the honorary title of chairman emeritus, Starbucks said in a statement.

Wish I could find it, but it's pre intertubes. A memo from a German importing company to a coffee exporter in south America about the "ratt schidt" in the coffee shipments. The importer's memo said that the custoners actually liked the "ratt schidt" flavor of the coffee, but the importer was wondering if the "ratt schidt' could be shipped separately so that the importer could do custom blends.

'How are we going to pay for these things?'
Seems the 'right' people have a lot of money to spend on burnt overpriced coffee sold with an attitude. Anyways, a good socialist doesn't care about economics - see: Venezuela

In general I think it might be a good idea for successful business people to run for office. Howard Schultz, Carly Fiorina and Ross Perot are unfortunate examples and at the moment I am unable to think of any better ones except Trump. Well, there are also Ronald Reagan and Arnold Schwarzenegger if you don't mind categorizing movie making as a business. At least they demonstrated competence at something besides collecting campaign contributions and money from tax payers. But I like the idea candidates for public office who have proven themselves in business. We know that career politicians are a bad idea.

Supposing he did somehow manage to get the White House; seriously doubt the Secret Service would allow the anybody in regardless of customer status just to use the Wi-Fi or bathrooms.....

The manner in which the Democrat Party has denigrated and made villains out of business and business leaders in general over the past three decades and more likely makes these people self-select out of politics.

In America successful businesspeople donate to politicians so they will do what is wanted. They don’t get into the muck with professional politicians, competing to win the votes of the populace.
Besides, the skills necessary to compete successfully in the business arena are generally very different than politicians require. President Truman, after all, was a failed businessman... and a successful soldier.
Mr.Schultz, if he really is interested in politics, would be mir likely to encounter success if he tried at the local level before running for Congress.
[PRESSTV] A record number of black women are reportedly running for congressional seats across the US state of Alabama.
CNN said on Tuesday that more than 70 African-American women had launched Democratic campaigns to unseat Republicans in primary elections in the deep-red state.
All but two of the black women running for office are Democrats.
"The tide is shifting, and these southern states are showing the rest of the country, again as they always have, that we can lead, and we can change the world," Rhonda Briggins, an Alabama native and co-founder of VoteRunLead, told the American news channel.
"If you look at history, especially Alabama history, civil rights history, women have always led those charges, and have been the ones working very diligently, behind the scenes, organizing," she said.
VoteRunLead is a national nonpartisan organization that trains women who want to run for office.
Briggins told CNN that judicial positions provide African-American women with a unique opportunity to change their communities.
"If we're going to do something about Black Lives Matter then it starts with our local judicial system, it starts with our local policing powers," she said, referring to a protest movement since 2012 against the high-profile deaths of a number of African Americans at the hands of white coppers in the US.

Hope Uncle George spent a ton of money on her, too.

Re Jones-Wright, I couldn't resist looking up that first name. Insistence on the accent seemed a little odd, but insistence on an eccentric/incorrect accent? Anyway, looked it up (accents graves as far as the eye could see) and had a chuckle. Likely meaning of Genevieve? "Woman of the race."
Immunity? But isn’t that for people who have done wrong?
[Mediaite] Former FBI Deputy Director Andrew McCabe is set to appear before the Senate Judiciary Committee soon, but he apparently has made a request for immunity in exchange.
According to CNN, McCabe is requesting "the Senate Judiciary Committee provide him with immunity from prosecution" in exchange for testimony on the handling of the Clinton email probe:
"Under the terms of such a grant of use immunity, no testimony or other information provided by Mr. McCabe could be used against him in a criminal case," wrote Michael Bromwich, a lawyer for McCabe, to Senate Judiciary Chairman Chuck Grassley, who has requested McCabe testify next week.
This comes as a DOJ inspector general report on the FBI and DOJ’s handling of Clinton probe is expected very soon. President Trump tweeted this morning, "What is taking so long with the Inspector General’s Report on Crooked Hillary and Slippery James Comey. Numerous delays. Hope Report is not being changed and made weaker! There are so many horrible things to tell, the public has the right to know. Transparency!"

Bromwich said in the letter to Grassley he’s willing to give the committee emails that "demonstrate that Mr. McCabe advised former Director Comey, in October 2016, that Mr. McCabe was working with FBI colleagues to correct inaccuracies before certain media stories were published."
Grassley has also, per CNN, invited both James Comey and Loretta Lynch to testify too.

If he really does start naming names, he can expect a sudden bout of depression while walking in a park at night where he commits suicide by shooting himself in the back of the head. Twice.

Wait, won't there also be some sort of 'mugger' that doesn't steal anything and travels by Uber or something?
After Andy's plane crashed into the side of a mountain, that is.

2026 is only eight years from now. I plan on living that much longer and then some. Can we please stop giving money away to foreign dictators and foreigners who invade our country? Then can we stop subsidizing housing for losers? Now?

Now they will have to come after the IRA's for their next cash influx...
Specifically, Roth IRA's. One of my buddies has been screaming about that for over a decade, and how they'll do it is this - they'll (try to) tax the accumulated earnings which are currently non-taxable under the Roth plan. I also wouldn't put it past them to tax some of the contributions into Roth plans as well, which would be the point to break out the pitchforks.

IRA's and 401k's;
Call it the 'affordable retirement investment act' where they manage your investments and retirements on your behalf. To insure everyone has a fair share of the investments you worked your ass off and sacrificed for. Why should welfare joe suffer just because he blew his chance on hookers and booze?
