And It Didn’t Even a Take a Russian
Yesterday I got an email from a customer giving me a heads up about voter fraud in New Hampshire.
|
I want to reassure this customer that the time-honored white straight male illegal voting still holds true in Texas. This time it was done by a candidate and the man named “Precinct Chair of The Year” by the GOP County Chairman and by another man who now sits in the Texas legislature. Beside digging out all the evidence needed to prosecute this case, I found two witnesses willing to testify that the Precinct Chair of Year bragged about doing this.
He was never indicted or charged.
But the black woman who voted while on parole will be in prison for five years.
Because there is no white priviledge.
Thanks to Steve for the heads up.
Cruella DeVos – Loan Shark gets educated down by the court.
Betsy DeVos Held in Contempt of Court for Refusing to Stop Collecting Loan Payments From Defrauded Students
A federal judge on Thursday held President Donald Trump’s billionaire Education Secretary Betsy DeVos in contempt of court for failing to comply with an order to stop collecting loan payments from former students of Corinthian Colleges, a defunct for-profit college company that defrauded tens of thousands of borrowers.
Judge Sallie Kim of the U.S. District Court in San Francisco also hit the Education Department with a $100,000 fine for violating the injunction.
“Money from the fine will be used to compensate the 16,000 people harmed by the federal agency’s actions,” the Washington Post reported. “Some former students of the defunct for-profit college had their paychecks garnished. Others had their tax refunds seized by the federal government.”
The Education Department said in a statement that it made “mistakes” and did not intend to violate the order.
In her eight-page ruling (pdf), Kim said there is “no question that defendants’ violations harmed individual borrowers who were forced to repay loans either through voluntary actions or involuntary methods (offset from tax refunds and wage garnishment) and who suffered from the adverse credit reporting.”

2Megasoid, that’s just a pair of curtains for one of Betsy’s yachts.
3lazrgrl @3 Irrelevant to the decision. Her “wages” will continue to be garnished to help the victims of Fraud 45’s corruption which is an embarrassing smack down for the old beldame
Sen. Elizabeth Warren (D-Mass.) tweeted that DeVos would “rather risk sanctions or even jail than do her job to help America’s students.”
“The Department of Education needs to follow the law and cancel the student loans of scammed Corinthian Colleges students,” said Warren, a 2020 Democratic presidential candidate. “And if Betsy DeVos wants to work for predatory for-profit colleges, she should resign and find herself a new job.”
4Correx: the education dept will continue to be sanctioned.
5Yeah, but don’t you that the rich are rich because they have God’s special favor. They’re such great souls that Baby Jesus bestowed billions on their daddies and made sure it trickled down upon them. Gag! Even the British nobility of 600 years ago would choke on ol’ Betsy’s self-entitlement.
6Was just watching Obama and Clinton at Cummings funeral. How far we have fallen!
7#7 Grandma Ada: I’m watching, too. Was especially impressed with his daughters. Seeing Rep Cummings through personal accounts of family & staff is eye opening. A wonderful father, husband and public servant.
I noticed Mark Meadows and Snarling Dog Jordan are in attendance and smiled & applauded for something Pres Clinton said. Wonder if POS45 is watching and blowing a gasket. Hope so.
8Grandma Ada @ 7 He has lain “in state” at so many places now. That speaks to his life of in service to equal rights for so many, not to those who show up merely for self aggrandizement.
9Off-topic (or OT as the young-uns say nowadays): Megasoid, I appreciate the tidbits and other sources you bring to the salon. Thanks for dredging the Web and bringing back the goodies that I would otherwise have missed.
I like the quote “The Education Department said in a statement that it made “mistakes” and did not intend to violate the order.” It dovetails nicely with this post’s voter: “… Bell knew that voting in the same election in both states was wrong, while his defense argued that he never intended to commit a crime.”
I gotta try that one. “Oops, your honor. I was just showing the bank teller the new gun that I bought, and it wasn’t until I got home and took off my mask that I realized she had given me $30,000 too much. By then the bank was closed, and then I clean forgot about it until those mean FBI guys came to my door a week later ….”
10The Surly Professor @10 Yeah, the weakest excuses in govt. I like to jazz it up for readers attention especially at halloween with visual gifs. Select view THEN copy the link otherwise the text runs off the page. With a header like this:
PumpkinJerk the Impeachment King see’s one after another of his quislings getting dragged into legal trouble over his criminal extortion schemes.

11“I’ll bet a dollar he never sees the inside of a jail tho, because:
1)”he”
2) Republican
3) white
4) and this ain’t Texas….”
Jes’ wondering, in my idle way, how loud the squeals and screeches of outrage would be if you changed the words:
“I’ll bet a dollar she never sees the inside of a jail tho, because:
1)”she”
2) Democrat
3) black
4) and this ain’t Texas….
The old saying about sauce for the goose AND the gander!
12Uh, Duff: I think items 1-3 in your list are precisely the conditions for enhancing the chances of seeing the inside of a jail, if not being outright beaten and killed. So the only objection I’d raise is that your list has things bass-ackward.
Examples: Sandra Bland, Atatiana Jefferson, Pamela Turner in just the past year.
13When Texas turns BLUE again, this will all get fixed.
14Duvidelle@12 do you not have some Brexit issues to resolve? Charity begins at home, so go home and spare us your moronic observations served up as the st00pidest pile of crap offered on the internet today. Seriously. When you are too st00pid to compete with Russian bots and trolls, delete yourself.
Ms. JuanitaJean Herownself, pitiful Davy is less interesting than a dead mouse to a cat. Off to the dustbin with this clod of upchuck, please. Trolls can be fun, but dayum they’re tedious when they lack the intellection capacity of a dust bunny. Sweep, please …
15@The Surly Professor #14
Alas, Prof, your point escapes me but then I am just a dim, old Brit.
@Jean & PKM #15
Calm down, dears! It was merely the idle thoughts of an idle man!
