Pardon Me..

 

Marilyn Mosby, the former Baltimore City state’s attorney who faces up to 40 years for withdrawing funds from her own retirement savings to purchase a home, is asking President Joe Biden for “grace,” “mercy” and “justice” in a recent interview with theGrio’s April Ryan. 

A pardon application has been submitted on behalf of Mosby to President Biden and to the U.S. Department of Justice. The Congressional Black Caucus, civil rights organizations, including the NAACP and National Action Network, the National Bar Association and over 60 lawyers have requested the president to grant Mosby’s pardon. 

The White House acknowledged receipt of the application and letters from major groups on Mosby’s behalf. However, Biden officials have declined to comment on the case.

Teran..

 

California's top Democratic lawyers urged Attorney General Rob Bonta to drop 11 felony charges filed against Los Angeles Ethics and Integrity Assistant District Attorney Diana Teran, a top lieutenant of embattled Los Angeles District Attorney George Gascon.

The 11 charges are for illegally accessing confidential, "statutorily-protected" law enforcement files in her current role and prior role as Constitutional Policing Advisor at the Los Angeles County Sheriff’s Department while investigating officers for potential misconduct.

Teran was a key member of the Los Angeles District Attorney office’s resentencing committee, and it’s not clear if she may have used improperly acquired information in the position. 

The letter also argues “Teran was acting in her official capacity when doing the things you allege she did” 

Killing..

Philip Martin, a former Obama-Biden administration staffer, says he feels betrayed by President Joe Biden’s “unconditional support” for Israel as it continues its attack in Gaza, almost seven months now.

Martin, a former director in the U.S. Department of Education, told USA TODAY he’d joined the Obama campaign in 2008 because he was furious that the Bush administration had “hijacked" the country's pain to justify killing civilians in Iraq and Afghanistan.

“Seeing the Biden administration provide unconditional support to the Israeli war machine that is killing, displacing, starving, and otherwise terrorizing Palestinian civilians makes me just as furious and feels like a betrayal,” he said.

Cracking

 

Some of America's best-known corporations are saying their consumers are being pinched by inflation as prices continue rising.

Inflation has dominated corporate America's discourse over the past three years following the pandemic-induced easing of monetary policy and trillions of dollars in Covid relief. 

Though the pace of price growth has cooled since the Federal Reserve began raising interest rates in early 2022, consumers are still feeling the squeeze — and often tightening purse strings — as costs continue climbing.
