The Feds Gave Baltimore Mayor A No Knock!
 |
| Baltimore city mayor Catherine Pugh is under federal watch after they allegedly claim she used state funds to publish her books. |
The FBI and state authorities raided her homes, her businesses and city hall.
The mayor is facing calls to resign after she became embroiled in a corruption scandal.
The IRS and FBI had a no knock. Dave Fitz, a spokesman to the FBI confirmed agents that the Baltimore FBI office and the Washington DC IRS office were executing search warrants at those locations Thursday morning, as well as at least three other addresses associated with the mayor.
It will be a federal watch of state officials and Pugh's activities.
Maryland's Republican governor Larry Hogan is calling for Pugh to step down. Pugh placed herself on a leave of absence since the investigation was launched about a month ago.
"Today, agents for the FBI and the IRS executed search warrants at the mayor's homes and offices. Now more than ever, Baltimore city needs strong and responsible leadership. Mayor Pagh has lost the public trust. She is clearly not fit to lead. For the good of the city, Mayor Pugh must resign."
Hogan is considering a primary challenge against Donald J. Trump for the Republican nomination.
Pugh, the Demcoratic mayor of the city replace Stephanie Rawlings Blake, the predecessor who allowed Baltimore break out in unrest during the Freddie Gray tragedy.

| The feds are looking into the matter involving the mayor using funds to publish her books. |
The Maryland Office of the State Prosecutor had ordered an investigation into Pugh.
Pugh wrote a book called, Healthy Holly, a children book which saw inflated sales. The book series went through the University of Maryland Medical System while she was on its unpaid board of directors.
Pugh's attorney Steven Silverman who also had his offices raid maintains innocence.
"We will continue to vigorously defend the mayor, who is entitled the presumption of innocence."
The medical system confirmed federal prosecutors had sent it a subpoena.
"The University of Maryland Medical System had received a grand jury witness subpoena today from the U.S. Attorney's Office for the District of Maryland seeking documents and information from UMMS in order to conduct their investigation of Mayor Pugh. We are fully cooperating with the investigative process," said Michael Schwartzberg, a spokesman for the hospital network, in an email.
The Baltimore Sun also has obtained information that the Maryland Center for Adult Training was raided as well. Pugh once lead the nonprofit job training program and it has listed online as board three Pugh staffers, Gary Brown, Jr., Poetri Deal and Afra Vance-White. They had their properties raided as well.
Acting mayor Bernard C. Young (aka Jack) said he has fired the three mayoral staffers out the cannon.

| Stephanie Rawlings-Blake faced calls to resign after the Baltimore riots. Her successor Catherine Pugh is facing calls to resign after the feds did a "no knock" on her home. |
Rep. Elijah Cummings (D-MD) said that Baltimore needs to get their.....well you know.
"I urge Mayor Pugh to put the best interest of the city and its residents first and foremost. Baltimore needs and deserves leadership that is above reproach and which can lead the city forward in ways that engender the trust and confidence of all essential stakeholders. No one questions Mayor Pugh's passion for Baltimore city and its citizens. At the same time, the circumstances now require that she also provide an example of accountability for those same people. We all want her health to be restored and to now focus on these very grave matters that have everything to do with her personal business endeavors and nothing to do with the priorities of the city of Baltimore."
Pugh isn't the first Baltimore mayor under federal watch. The last one was Sheila Dixon. In 2008, Dixon became the first mayor in the city's history to be indicted. She was convicted and soon resigned.
Pugh hasn't been indicted yet. But if she does, she is innocent until proven guilty in a court of law.
What she is facing is misleading the IRS, misuses of city funds, wire fraud and unauthorized use of state and city property. These charges are felonies and it could put her in federal time out for up to 30 years.
Hell if she does get this type of sentence, I will be pissed.
Because if folks like Michael Cohen can get a measly five years for stuff like this and Pugh (a woman of color) being handed hefty bids, then I say the criminal justice system only favors Whites over Blacks.
Baltimore is the largest city in Maryland. Baltimore is an independent city. It has a population of 604,000 residents. The region is within 40 miles of Washington, DC and 106 miles of Philadelphia.
What Happened To Kashala Francis?
 |
| A young girl was killed by school bullies. The Trump "Be Best" campaign is bullshit. The death of Kashala Francis is becoming a national story. Are we a country of idiots, extremists and bullies? |
The two assailants served Kashala Francis, a helping of knuckle style chili with toe jam. One of those servings got her head and it lead to a massive tumor. The tumor was in the back of her head.
The attack had the Attucks Middle Independent School and the students under investigation.
Francis died on Wednesday at the Texas Children's Hospital where doctors discovered a tumor in the back of head that was exacerbated by the attack.
Her mother, Mamie Jackson was angry. She said that she wants those involved brought to justice and demands an investigation into the school and how they failed to resolve the matter.
Houston Metro Police spokesman Victor Senties said that this is a homicide.
He said that no students were arrested at this time and declined to release further details of the investigation.
 |
| Her heartbroken mother demands the school and law do something. |
Once again, they film this shit instead of trying to stop this shit. The person who filmed this shit would be getting a call from the law. That student who filmed it will likely rat out those involved.
Those involved are innocent until proven guilty in a court of law. They could face involuntary manslaughter and homicide. The charges could bumped to adult court and those involve could be put in juvie before the iron college. These charges could be 20 years in the iron college if the incident does become a state prosecutor issue.
This incident echos another incident that happened this year. A 10 year old was killed after a fight.
Raniya Wright died last month after a fight with a classmate. The South Carolina state prosecutors declined to charge the student. They said that Raniya had a rare birth defect, arteriovenous malformation.
Donald J. Trump and Melania Trump can't fix a problem they're a part of. This "BE BEST" bullshit ain't working.
Be Best was supposed to help motivate children to stop bullying. Melania is a bully. Her husband is racist coot. He is a moron and he panders to idiots and far-white bigots like Sean "Softball" Hannity and Steve Bannon.
Mike Pence and Karen Pence are bullies too. They want to impose Christian authority on this country. They are pandering to far-white elements.
Women and girls of color are under attack. We are seeing this stuff happen everyday.
We need to do better. I mean we really are at the brink of madness.
A Buck 50!
 |
| 50 Cent feuding with Young Buck again. |
Curtis "50 Cent" Jackson and Young Buck are squabbling again. Two grown ass men being so fucking juvenile.
Should 50 Cent and Young Buck bury the hatchet? (Expect trolls to pick the dumbest answers)
The Unit now has Kidd Kidd, a former member of Young Money to the roster. The group is signed to Caroline Records after 50 Cent exited Aftermath/Shady/Interscope in 2013.
The Unit's Southern huncho had enough of the delays and stalling. He wants his music out and him off the contract. As you know, 10 years ago, Buck and 50 were at it over the release of his commercial album Buck The World.
 |
| Buck got caught with his pants down. He has been the butt of ridicule for his antics outside the studio. |
That made Buck the laughing stock of hip-hop.
Young Buck (David Darnell Brown) left the Unit to strike it out on his own. Buck had dissed 50 on many of his albums since.
But the two patched things up in 2014. Buck even resigned to the Unit and released a handful of mixtapes under the label.
"You look at the tape, a lot different from what we were experiencing at the same time. I knew how people would perceive it, 50 told MTV. "The reason why I knew to tape it, because I knew what was going to be said. It wasn't the first time we were having that conservation."
All that changed when Young Buck was caught with his pants down. He was allegedly having a tryst with transgender rapper Glamour Perfekk. She recorded the encounter and posted it on social media.
 |
| The infamous kiss. Sexual abuse victim Erin Andrews tries to avoid a plant on her face by Curtis. |
50 clowned on him and mocked his embarrassing encounter. That launched another feud between the two.
As a rap troll, 50 Cent has often mocks his fellow rappers and his own group. Buck was no different.
"Young Buck is almost ready to drop his album. He worked hard on this project. I told him his personal choice to date a transexual will confuse some of his core audience but with the support the LGBT (community) he should be fine... New heat coming soon!!"
50 Cent deleted his Instagram postings.
But it riled up Buck and now the rapper promises to expose his boss and his old crew.
Young Buck dished out a response to 50 Cent for his comments earlier today. Buck called out Fif for not only trolling on social media but also for his shady business practices that have left the former G-Unit member tied to a contract. He also threatened to destroy Fif's career, saying, "I'll burn your career down. I'll Ja Rule you."
"I thought you was 50 Cent... I thought you had some real Nigga tendencies," Buck said on Instagram Live while waiting for his flight to take off. "You a real life sucka, Nigga," he added before claiming 50 Cent's trying to manipulate the fans with unsubstantiated rumors. "If you such a real Nigga, why don't you let me go? You understand what I'm saying? And we'll fight the battle like that," he continued. "Line me up like Ja Rule. Go bar-for-bar with me, Nigga. Play that game, you scared?"
The Black LGBT community is getting tired of the ignorance. Give it a rest. 50 and Buck, you two are grown ass men and it's just ridiculous to play this "macho" shit in this #TimesUp movement.
You two better be lucky women don't come forth with allegations of sexual assault. You guys could end up having a R. Kelly moment. Believe me, R. Kelly thought he could get away with having tryst with underage girls and women without being caught up. If your partner is of legal age, by all means have fun (and protect yourself).
You don't want to catch a STD or unwanted pregnancy.
Who cares about the sexuality of a rapper or entertainer? Let them be human. What people do in the bedroom is no one's business but the two consenting adults.
Transgender women need to stop with the exploitation shit. Quit secretly recording people without their consent. You can be sued by an individual if you secretly record a person without consent. That includes trying to mock an individual or blackmail a celebrity.
50 said the Unit will always remain in tact. He said to the junk food media that he's working on getting more shit out there. 50 also has executive produced the Starz drama Power.

Hey Look! There's A Cliff!
 |
| The National Park Service had to put warning signs in plain sight to keep idiots from falling off the Grand Canyon. Unfortunately, some of the folks never adhere to the warning sign. |
But like most stories on this blog, you cannot fix stupid.
The Grand Canyon is a national treasure. It's a wide gap (extremely steep) where you can see the scenic Arizona desert and the Colorado River. It's very popular for people to take selfies.
It's also a place where many idiots lost their lives not following rules imposed by the U.S. Park Rangers who cautioned visitors from going near the cliff.
 |
| Would you risk taking a selfie? |
I would love to visit the park one day. But better believe me, I won't ever do any stupid selfies for click-bait.
The folks who parished off the Grand Canyon go pass the warning signs clearly saying that the edges could be slippery and stay off the path. Obviously thrill seekers don't often take care to warning signs.
Before I go, I just want to say this if you are willing to take risks such as this, get life insurance.
Rabbit With Rap Sheet!
 |
| The Easter Bunny had to stop a white man from assaulting a Black woman. |
A man is called a hero is a wanted man.
This young man managed to rescue a woman from a serving of knuckle style chilli. This young man dressed up in a Easter Bunny costume gave a male attacker a delicious serving.
Since the video went viral, Antoine McDonald became a viral sensation.
The 20 year old man was defending a woman from being served a hot plate.
Although he became a hero, McDonald became a wanted man. The Pennsylvania, New Jersey and Delaware police agencies are looking to book him for violating his in-house.
 |
| Unmasked. Man who saved a woman is a wanted man by the state lawmen. |
McDonald could have relished in anonymity as the Tampa Bay Times reported. Nope, he decided to talk to the junk food media and it became a beacon to the law.
Now he is hoping to cash in on the fame by creating a profile called badbunnyoff19 on Instagram.
What he saw was as white guy giving a spit wad on a Black woman. Then he was about to serve her a hot plate of knuckle style chili.
"I saw him spit on her and then I saw, you know like a fight break out," he said to TMZ. "I just ran over there."
While in his bunny suit, he tries to break up the fight. But the man got on top of the woman and that's when McDonald served him a hot plate.
The fight would soon be broken up by the Orlando Police and the victim did not press charges.
But once the video hit the scene, guess what, viral sensation.
See once again, you have people recording violence towards women of color and not aiding in stopping it. It's infuriating to see women of color under attack. It had to be a guy who was wearing a costume trying to stop a situation. Not the person filming the situation.
While he does have to answer for his criminal acts in Florida as well as numerous states, McDonald is grateful that he done something.
He admits it was kind of funny to see a bunny hop on a thug.
The suspect is innocent until proven guilty in a court of law. Washington could face some time in the iron college if found guilty of carjacking and robbery. The good deed might wipe some time off his bid.
I Had My Headscarf Ripped Off By This Bully! All They Did Was Film Me Being Attacked!

| Muslim teen attacked by a white teen. It's the latest of MAGA-ites showing out. |
Women of color often face harsh attacks from white extremists. They are worked up by the comments of Donald J. Trump and his accolades. Trump has made America hate again.
A young teen was attacked by her fellow classmates in a New Jersey school. The school district has to do damage control. The teacher and the classmates didn't break up the fight. The young girl who was a Muslim had her headscarf ripped off her head.
This happened in East Brunswick, New Jersey.
The female student who attacked the young teen was white. She was arrested after the footage went to social media.
One witness said, "I witnessed a Muslim girl on the floor and she was being senselessly beaten by the other girl. She was shouting for help and stop. I saw her being spat on."
Middlesex Countty prosecutors are charging the teen with simple assault, harassment, cyber harassment and disorderly conduct. The suspect was placed on leave at the school. The suspect is innocent until proven guilty in a court of law.
If found guilty, the teen will be expelled from the school. She will pay for the medical damages on the victim. She will have to go to teen behavior classes along with cultural tolerance classes. She will have to do community service. She could get put in the kiddie lock up for up to five years.
The impact also got parents and community leaders angry. The victim was placed on leave as well as the boy who wanted to be a social media darling.
Although I am comfortable with the boy being place on leave, the victim shouldn't. But the school place a zero-tolerance policy on fighting.
That's pretty much a lawsuit in the waiting. The victim should file a lawsuit against the school, the school resource officer and the student.
It's a damn shame that white people are so clueless when it comes to Islam. I am not a religious scholar or a practicing Muslim. But I am a person who is tolerant of all religions.

| Linda Sarsour and Rep. Ilhan Omar (D-MN). The two women are vilified because of their religion. Omar who has became a lightening rod for the right has gotten death threats because of her opposition of apartheid in Israel. |
I am not ashamed of being progressive. I am ashamed that conservatives think they're actually cool.
Nope. They're not.
If you're obsessed with conspiracies about the junk food media, sharing racist memes, saying inappropriate things about people because they don't speak English, attack the poor for using the safety net, troll on social media or blogs such as Journal de la Reyna, I think you're a racist.
Conservatives are racist. There's nothing more I can say about it.
The Republican Party is becoming white, male and old.
Democrats are no better. Given how they've treated Rep. Ilhan Omar (D-MN) and Rep. Rashida Tlaib (D-MN) the last few months makes me wonder if the Democratic Party loves to prop up Black and Brown folks for votes.
Omar and Tlaib have been critical of Israeli influence on American politicians. They're being called anti-Semitic for daring to speak truth about how our government is funding a foreign power that is oppressing people of color.
Just tonight, that corrupt gas bag Benjamin Netanyahu is planning on building in the disputed Golan Heights. He vows to build a town after Trump. The world leaders are condemning Trump and Netanyahu for unilaterally occupying land that was in Syria. They are also building on the West Bank. That is a violation of the United Nations. They are starving and killing people in the Gaza Strip.
The Israeli government had lead a campaign to silence the Boycott, Deinvestment and Sanctions movement. The Congress has members willing to impose criminal punishment on those who support BDS and many 2020 candidate pledge support to this horrible regime.
There's aftermath of these conversations affecting American Muslims. They're often vilified by folks on talk radio, Fox News and RightFart (aka Breitbart). Being a Muslim isn't a crime nor it should be.
In wake of the Easter attacks in Sri Lanka, many conservatives are whipping up another storm aimed at the two lawmakers. They automatically are blaming them for the acts of these extremists.
Five Americans were among almost 400 people being killed when young men with backpacks entered large gatherings. They blew themselves up. The ringleader claims that the right wing terrorist who caused the New Zealand attacks were an inspiration.
