-Lurid Crime Tales-
''Recidivist No. 1'' exposes Manhattan DA Bragg''s criminal revolving door
[NYPOST] Most of us would agree that even criminals deserve a second chance.

But what about 134 chances?

Apparently, Manhattan District Attorney Alvin ''Set 'Em Free'' Bragg is all-in on such a revolving-door approach to justice.

Or maybe Bragg just hasn't found a criminal he believes is worth prosecuting at all.

So it was not surprising, though nonetheless disturbing, to discover in The Post that the infamously woke prosecutor has allowed career criminal Harold Gooding to continue to wreak havoc as he pillages and plunders the businesses of our city, despite racking up an astonishing record of 134 arrests.

The fact that Bragg was warned about Gooding three years ago — when the serial thief's face was plastered on the front page of The Post as ''Recidivist No. 1,'' topping the New York Police Department's worst-of-the-worst repeat-offenders list — makes the DA's gross negligence even more outrageous.

Government Corruption
Damning analysis alleges 97% of BIDEN DOJ report against Phoenix PD 'either factually or contextually inaccurate'
[LawEnforcementToday] PHOENIX, AZ— A damning analysis released on May 1st of the U.S. Department of Justice’s report investigating Phoenix Police Department by law enforcement experts Dr. Travis Yates and Dr. JC Chaix concluded that the DOJ under the Biden Administration presented 97% of the 134 alleged incidents it cited in a factually inaccurate manner and instead appeared to "use political pressure to frame a narrative."

The 2024 report .(BIDEN-DOJ) , which claimed to have found a "pattern of practice"of civil rights violations in the Phoenix PD, led to a push for the city to engage in a consent decree with the DOJ. The Phoenix Law Enforcement Association and Maricopa County Board of Supervisors Chairman Thomas Galvin have vocally resisted the decree, which has generated enormous controversy in Arizona
The ongoing question asked by millions of US Citizens.
When will we see arrests for these clear abuses of power for Political Agenda reasons?

#1  Find out who worked on and managed that project, beyond just the author(s) of the reports. Add them to the next list for department downsizing — their evident skills are not a fit for the Trump DOJ.

#3  I would allege that 97% of the CDC's data for the last 4 years was "factually or contextually inaccurate". The powers that be tried to *destroy* this nation during the last 4 years, and the GOP stood by and did nothing to fight against it. They are the equivalent of unindicted co-conspirators.

#4  Release the verbiage of the desired consent decree. It likely is a federal attempt to gain oversight of law enforcement in a location where immigration issues are prevalent. If they had been successful, the template would have been used elsewhere.

US officials delayed warning public about heart inflammation risk from COVID shot: report

Johnson’s report said that health officials at CDC and the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) "ultimately decided against issuing a formal HAN and, instead, posted ‘clinical considerations’ on CDC’s website about myocarditis."

Home Front: WoT
Judge Tries Again to Block the Trump Administration''s Deportations
[TOWNHALL] A federal judge said that the Trump administration violated a court order after it deported several migrants colonists to South Sudan
...a Moslem country located in the Horn of Africa. It is noted for its affinity for rule by ex- or current generals, its holy men, and for the oppression of the native Afro population by its Arab conquerors. South Sudan, populated mostly by the natives, split off from Sudan proper, which left North and South Darfur to be oppressed by the guys with turbans...
despite the fact that they came from other countries.

US District Judge Brian E. Murphy on Tuesday ordered the White House to keep the deportees in US custody after the plane landed in Sudan in preparation for Wednesday's emergency hearing. During the proceedings, the judge argued that the administration violated an injunction he put in place in April.

From The News Agency that Dare Not be Named:

In an emergency hearing he called to address reports that immigrants colonists had been sent to South Sudan, Judge Brian E. Murphy in Boston said the eight migrants colonists aboard the plane were not given a meaningful opportunity to object that the deportation could put them in danger. Minutes before the hearing, administration officials accused ''activist judges'' of advocating the release of dangerous criminals.

The group was flown out of the United States just hours after getting notice, leaving them no chance to contact lawyers who could object in court.

Government attorneys argued that the men had a history with the immigration system, giving them prior opportunities to express a fear of being deported to a country outside their homeland. They also said that immigration authorities may have misunderstood the order because the judge did not specify the time needed between notice and deportation.

#1  It might be easier to make a list of federal judges that don’t suck.

#2  Judge tries to block shutting down department of education.
Posted by: swksvolFF || 05/22/2025 13:35 Comments || Top||

#3  Congress needs to be shamed into acting. They control these courts so they need pass a law stating that any court BELOW the Supreme court may not issue a nationwide injunction. Any Judge(s) doing so will be considered to have 1. Voluntarily resigned their position. 2. Voluntarily renounced their citizenship. 3. Donate ALL land, money, assets to the federal government. 4. Are deported within 48 hours.

Add a rider that if the Supreme court attempts to block this, all courts below the Supreme court are immediately dissolved and the pay of a Supreme court Justice is now indexed to match the poverty level.
