Pregnant...

the Washington Free Beacon obtained the aforementioned school-board minutes showing that the Riverdale Board of Education had approved a second-year teaching contract for a young Elizabeth Warren in April 1971. 

Rather than accepting the Board’s offer of continued employment, Warren chose to tender her resignation, which was “accepted with regret,” according to minutes from a school board meeting held two months after the offer was extended.

Warren has repeatedly described on the campaign trail how she was “shown the door” after one year because her pregnancy became visible, and routinely claims the experience informed her commitment to gender equality and her decision to enter politics.

Fake it till you make it. 

It is a disgraceful way of claiming a real problem women face every day which never happened to you.  Just a thought.

Morgan...

JPMorgan is seriously contemplating selling its investment banking headquarters, located at 383 Madison Ave., which currently houses the well-paid bankers and traders. 

JPMorgan has already built up and staffed offices in lower-cost areas, such as Plano, Texas where the bank now has 25,000 workers and is building a 12-story tower that will house even 4more employees, Columbus, Ohio and Wilmington, Delaware. 

This is part of a larger, growing trend by banks to ruthlessly cut costs out of fear of a possible recession, concerns that the bull market may soon end and low interest rates, which cut deeply into profits. Real estate and salaries in New York are substantially higher than other parts of the country.

Moving from State and City taxes to no taxes. Good luck NY 

Justice...

Breakthrough...

Rocky Mountain Institute (RMI) released a report called “Breakthrough Batteries: Powering the Era of Clean Electrification” that asserts that transition to green energy is happening faster than originally predicted. And as a result, it could hinder natural gas growth.

These investments will push both Li-ion and new battery technologies across competitive thresholds for new applications more quickly than anticipated.

This, in turn, will reduce the costs of decarbonization in key sectors and speed the global energy transition beyond the expectations of mainstream global energy models.  

These changes are already contributing to cancellations of planned natural-gas power generation. The need for these new natural-gas plants can be offset through clean-energy portfolios (CEPs) of energy storage, efficiency, renewable energy, and demand response.

RMI predicts that natural-gas plants that already exist could cease to be competitive soon.

Weaponize...

Katie Hill’s case lands smack in the middle of the three-way intersection between tech, sex, and power.

Technology has changed sex; sex has changed power; and power is newly vulnerable to strains of disgrace that didn’t exist a decade ago.  

This provides new and humiliating ways to document sexual encounters, and all sexual encounters especially when they involve a public figure are now subjected to brutal public dissection.   

Rep. Katie Hill, who is openly bisexual, admits to the relationship with the female campaign staffer. She denies the relationship with the male legislative aide, and has accused her “abusive” husband of orchestrating the smear campaign amidst their divorce.)

Since millennials live most of their lives online, it’s only natural that their sex lives have gone digital as well, and Hill was no exception.      

 One 2015 study found that 82% of adults had sexted in the last year, mostly with their partners in a committed relationship. But all those sexual messages can be easily weaponized by disgruntled exes or abusers: a 2016 study from the journal Data & Society found that roughly 10.4 million people—have either had their photos posted without their consent or else had someone threaten to do so. 

The weaponization of nudes is a 21st century sex crime, one that state and federal officials have done little to address. Hill’s nudes, including one of her combing her campaign staffer’s hair while naked, were leaked to a conservative blog and to the Daily Mail, which forced Hill to admit to the affair and apologize. But for millennials who are young and single in the age of dating apps, leaked nudes may soon become ubiquitous—and could eventually be considered as scandalous as a past divorce or a failed business: just another part of life. 

Complains...

WAAaaaa. Aaaaa...

Bonus...

The married California Congresswoman under fire for her steamy “throupling” with an aide paid a male staffer she allegedly slept with the highest bonus she doled out to aides working on her campaign, federal documents show.

California Rep. Katie Hill, who is under probe by the House Ethics Committee for the reported affair with the staffer, Graham Kelly, also continued to pay a female campaign worker she and her husband were romantically involved until at least last month.

Kelly, the legislative director in the Democratic Congresswoman’s Washington DC, office, received a $5,100 “2018 election bonus” on April 27, according to Federal Election Commission records.

Kelly was one of only four campaign workers who received bonuses, which started at $2,700. His was the highest.

The openly bisexual Hill admitted last week to an “inappropriate” relationship with the female campaign worker, who allegedly engaged in the three-way affair with Hill and her now estranged husband Kenny Heslep. Hill has said she ended the throuple over the summer.

Inflammation...

Your immune system becomes activated when your body recognizes anything that is foreign such as an invading microbe, plant pollen, or chemical. 

This often triggers a process called inflammation. Intermittent bouts of inflammation directed at truly threatening invaders protect your health.

One of the most powerful tools to combat inflammation comes not from the pharmacy, but from the grocery store.

To reduce levels of inflammation, aim for an overall healthy diet. If you're looking for an eating plan that closely follows the tenets of anti-inflammatory eating, consider the Mediterranean diet, which is high in fruits, vegetables, nuts, whole grains, fish, and healthy oils.

In addition to lowering inflammation, a more natural, less processed diet can have noticeable effects on your physical and emotional health. 

A healthy diet is beneficial not only for reducing the risk of chronic diseases, but also for improving mood and overall quality of life.

Anybody...

The Dems are looking for someone, anyone, who can beat Trump. Not someone who can do good for the little people and reduce medication prices.
