    We talked about how #HealthInsurance is being perverted, yesterday (see hashtag).

    Another example of #corporateState being an extreme violator of #humanDecency.

    Its their new #growth industry.

    Its "#goodGrowth" because no increase in #consumption of resources/energy. They've been pining to decouple growth for years but using COVID is wrong.

    Anatomy of a Fake Literary Agency Scam: Acquisitions NY / Bennett Media & Marketing writerbeware.blog/2023/04/21/a #Impersonation, #Solicitation

  24. Received a robo-#solicitation from #MADD [*] today. It was one of those ones that tries to pretend there's actually a #human on the line, which I find infuriating, but this one sunk to a new low.

    One of the first things out of its mouth ... er, D/A converter? ... was "Oh, I'm glad I got you. It feels like I've been talking to answering #machines all day."

    The #($*# nerve!

    [*] By the way, don't support MADD. They are the modern fascist descendant of the #Temperance League.

  25. #TrevianKutti, the former publicist of rapper Kanye West indicted alongside #Trump, has been granted #bond.

    Kutti was granted a $75,000 bond. She is being charged w/violating the State’s #RICO Act, #conspiracy to commit #solicitation of false statements & writings & influencing #witnesses.

  26. Among the 18 others #indicted w/ #Trump is #RudyGiuliani.

    #Giuliani #Georgia Charges:

    Violation of the GA #RICO Act;

    3 counts of #solicitation of violation of #oath by a public officer;

    3 counts of false statements & writings;

    • 2 to commit first-degree #forgery;
    • 2 to commit false statements & writings; &
    • 1 to commit filing false documents.

  27. The doc was dated Aug 14 & named #Trump, citing the case as "open," but is no longer available….

    The 2p doc cited the "Violation Of The@#Georgia #Rico," "#Solicitation Of Violation Of Oath By Public Officer," "#Conspiracy To Commit False Statements & Writings" & "Conspiracy To Commit #Forgery in the First Degree," among other charges listed.
