Crisis...

 


While, yes, the Garden State has had more governors step down, only one of them was as a result of a scandal or personal misconduct. 

The most recent one for New Jersey was when Gov. Jim McGreevey resigned in 2004 after admitting he had an extramarital affair with an Israeli man who was a gubernatorial appointee.

So which state has had the most governors resign due to misconduct? Sorry, New York, that's still you. Its three resignations for personal misconduct are more than any other state. 

Most other states have only had one or two, and some haven't had any at all (Florida, Hawaii and Washington have never had a governor resign, for any reason).

The issue is that the Media makes heroes of some governors who are violating the laws, not following the Democratic process, and not serving the people's well. With that which is clear to the Media, they create a hero of nothing just to show their own power..

That is the American Crisis. An elected Governor for many terms, later found out a real dictator or bad sexual habits.  

That is American Crises. Just a thought.

The Lie...

 


Rescind...



 Members of New York’s ethics commission voted overwhelmingly to rescind approval of former Gov. Andrew Cuomo’s $5.1 million book deal Tuesday.
The committee’s vote comes over a year since the October 2020 publication of Cuomo’s book “American Crisis: Leadership Lessons from the COVID-19 Pandemic,” which largely recounts the governor’s once-daily press conferences last spring.
The former governor, who resigned in August amid findings he sexually harassed at least 11 women, is also facing scrutiny over the book deal from state Attorney General Letitia James, federal prosecutors and the state Assembly’s Judiciary Committee, which is expected to soon release findings from a wide-ranging investigation of Cuomo’s alleged abuses of power.
 Cuomo has acknowledged that state employees helped with tasks including editing the manuscript. He’s claimed that those employees were “volunteering.”
That revelation led to members of the ethics commission voting 12-1  to rescind because of Mogul’s misstatements about Cuomo’s book deal, as the overwhelming majority agreed on a resolution that Cuomo violated the terms of their agreement.  Just a thought.

Crazy...

 


Neutral...

 

This cartoon represent what many of the politicians doing today. More paved spaces, more building of skyscrapers, more condensed area regardless and at the end of the day cry Climate Change. 

 Just a thought.

Dropping a political bombshell, New Jersey Gov. James McGreevey [Democrats] announced his resignation after revealing that he is gay and that he had an adulterous affair with a man.

With his wife standing by his side, McGreevey -- a father of two -- spoke in calm tones as he described his struggle with his sexuality, "a certain sense that separated me from others." It was something that he said began as a child.

"At a point in every person's life, one has to look deeply into the mirror of one's soul and decide one's unique truth in the world, not as we may want to see it or hope to see it, but as it is," McGreevey said.

McGreevey's surprise resignation came as Golan Cipel, a former security aide to the governor, had readied a sexual harassment lawsuit against the governor, two Democratic sources told CNN. Cipel resigned his post in 2002.

A third Democratic source, who had spoken throughout the day with a top aide to the governor, told CNN it is unclear whether Cipel will proceed with the lawsuit now that McGreevey has announced his resignation.

Speaking at a packed news conference in the Statehouse in Trenton, New Jersey, McGreevey admitted to an affair with a man and asked for his family's forgiveness.

Failure...

 



On Sept. 9, Ron Klain the white House chief of staff retweeted MSNBC anchor Stephanie Ruhle’s post that said, "OSHA doing this vaxx mandate as an emergency workplace safety rule is an ultimate work-around for the Federal govt to require vaccinations." 
At the time, U.S. Sen. Ted Cruz, R-Texas, interpreted Klain's message as the Biden administration acknowledging that its vaccine mandate was "likely illegal … but they don't care."
The Fifth Circuit Court of Appeals mentioned the retweet in its decision reaffirming its stay on Biden's mandate following a legal challenge from Texas and several other states, according to a Reuters reporter. 
If thou seest the oppression of the poor, and violent perverting of judgment and justice in a province, marvel not at the matter: for he that is higher than the highest regardeth; and there be higher than they.

Havoc...

 


The cost of living in the U.K. surged in October to a 10-year high, with the figure now more than double the target set by the Bank of England.

The U.K.'s Consumer Prices Index rose by 4.2% in the 12 months to October, up from 3.1% in September. Economists polled by Reuters had a expected a figure of 3.9% for October.

The Bank of England expects inflation to rise further to around 5% in the spring of 2022 before falling back toward its 2% target by late 2023, as the impact of higher oil and gas prices fades and demand for goods moderates.

Euro zone inflation hit a new 13-year high in October, at 4.1%, as the currency bloc also battles surging energy costs. This was the highest level since July 2008, according to Reuters data, and was ahead of a consensus forecast of 3.7%. September's figure had come in at 3.4%.

This is going to create havoc world wide caused by oil prices. Just a thought.
