Judge who wore tank tops, spandex shorts in court suspended indefinitely without pay for lying, falsifying documents, abuse of power, disrespectful treatment

udge who wore tank tops, spandex shorts in court suspended indefinitely without pay for lying, falsifying documents, abuse of power, disrespectful treatment...
In March 2020, the Cleveland Municipal Court presiding judge ordered the rescheduling of civil and criminal cases to prevent the spread of COVID-19, the state supreme court said. But it noted that Carr instead presided over her regular docket the next week and ordered arrests for criminal defendants who didn't appear and set bonds ranging from $2,500 to $10,000.
...
The judge falsified court journal entries and used warrants and incarceration to force payment of fines and costs by tying the person’s bond to the amount of the fine and costs, “essentially creat[ing] a modern-day debtors’ prison,” the state supreme court found, adding that she also abused her power in one case to hold a person in contempt, after which the individual served 15 days in jail.
...
Carr also violated rules governing the appropriate dress, order, and decorum for courtrooms, the state supreme court said, noting that her "bench was littered with dolls, cups, novelty items, and junk. She presided over her courtroom wearing tank tops, T-shirts – some with images or slogans, spandex shorts, and sneakers. She discussed with her staff and defendants a television show called 'P-Valley' about a fictional Mississippi strip club. She also joked about accepting kickbacks in lieu of fines and having defendants give her and court staff items such as food, beverages, carpeting, or storage space in exchange for lenient sentences."

read the story details. insane.

How can we stop them?

Only I can stop them. But I choose not to.

Why is this? Am I exploiting subway violence for political gain? Am I merely a sadist?

No, I'm just really bummed out that I have been totally unable to find a poseable J. Robert Oppenheimer action-figure, with cigarette and hat.

I have Einstein, he's sitting on top of my clock next to the atomic bomb. But he's lonely and needs a friend.

Carbon Market an $851 BILLION farce

https://cimg8.ibsrv.net/gimg/www.mia...f060b35bb5.jpg
The carbon marketplace "sells" nothing. It's made up out of whole cloth and inserted between governments and large industries so governments have more control & can tax us more. While they play "global elitist good guy", people will be starving or freezing to death in Europe this year. U.S. too?

A part of me wonders if this is a gender-bias thing.

I mean, Curie did a heck of a lot of basic research which paved the way for men like Oppenheimer, Vannevar Bush, Enrico Fermi, and Leo Szilard to create both the greatest and most horrible technologies in the history of humankind.

But she didn't do much applied science. And I just naturally sprout a boner when theory turns into practice.

Of course, neither did Einstein...

State Department funding 'drag theater performances' in Ecuador to 'promote diversity and inclusion'

State Dept. awards $20,600 grant for cultural center in Ecuador to host '12 drag theater performances'

The State Department awarded a $20,600 grant on Sept. 23 to the Centro Ecuatoriano Norteamericano (CEN), a non-profit organization supported by the U.S. Embassy and Consulate in Ecuador, to "promote diversity and inclusion" in the region.

The project at CEN, which started Sept. 30 and runs until Aug. 31, 2023, will include "3 workshops," "12 drag theater performances," and a "2-minute documentary," according to the State Department's grant listed on the USASpending.gov website.

The US Government has issued a $1.5m grant to the Canadian private equity firm Gazelle Finance, to assist in the relocation of Ukranian businesses to Georgia.

And they also did some other things.

Zscaler CEO: 'Major' EU Internet Cable Cut Was 'Act Of Vandalism'

Zscaler chief executive Jay Chaudhry is calling a severed fiber cable in the south of France an "act of vandalism" that's been felt by Internet users around the world.

In an online notice posted on Wednesday, Zscaler, the San Jose, Calif.-based cybersecurity company, first warned of Internet problems due to a severed fiber line in the southern portion of France.

"We are aware of a major cable cut in the South of France that has impacted major subsea cables with connectivity to Asia, Europe, US and potentially other parts of the world," Zscaler reported. "As a result of the cable cut, customers may see packet loss and or latency for websites and applications which traverse these impacted paths."

Chaudhry didn't elaborate further, but his comments come at a time of heightened concerns in Europe over possible sabotage of the continent's infrastructure.

Indeed, many suspect that Russia was behind the recent major leaks found in gas pipelines that run from Russia to Europe under the Baltic Sea.

Over the past 24 hours, there were some concerns that the severed cable line in France might be connected to a cut undersea"submarine cable" off coast of northern Scotland. But The Record, a publication from cybersecurity firm Recorded Future, is reporting the line was slashed by a fishing vessel.
