Catch/Release..

The Trump administration has dramatically curtailed the ability for those facing deportation to be released from immigration detention, its latest effort to expand the scope of its sweeping immigration crackdown, sources briefed on the policy change told CBS News.

By reinterpreting an immigration law from the 1990s, Immigration and Customs Enforcement is now instructing officials to argue in immigration court that detainees facing deportation are not eligible to be released on bond if they entered the U.S. illegally.

Previously, ICE's mandatory detention policy was generally limited to recent border-crossers and noncitizens convicted of certain crimes.

Comment:
The Democrats are building their opposition to the Trump Administration on allowing Illegal persons, with or without criminal background, to be release in the Country. Its catch and release strategy. 

Cognitive..

 Playing table tennis (also known as ping pong) offers a wide range of benefits for people of all ages and abilities. These benefits can be categorized into several key areas: 

Enhances Cognitive Function and Memory: Table tennis actively engages multiple brain regions involved in attention, processing speed, memory, and executive functions, potentially slowing down cognitive decline associated with aging and even being explored as a therapy for conditions like Alzheimer's and dementia.

Stress Reduction and Mood Boost: 
The physical activity and engaging nature of table tennis can trigger the release of endorphins, the body's natural mood boosters, which help alleviate stress, anxiety, and depression.

Commisso..

 

New York State agreed Friday to pay Brittney Commisso nearly a half million dollars to settle her claims that former Gov. Andrew Cuomo sexually harassed her.

Commisso accused Cuomo of "continuous sexual harassment" and retaliation, which the former governor has long denied.  Cuomo resigned as governor in 2021 as a cascade of women accused him of sexual misconduct, which he denied. 

Lawyers for Commisso released a statement in response to the settlement.
"The State's settlement with Ms. Commisso, at nearly half a million dollars, is a complete vindication of her claims, just as the repeated findings made by the Attorney General, the State Assembly and the US Department of Justice were. Those three independent investigations all found that Cuomo subjected Ms. Commisso to unwanted sexual harassment and groping when she worked for him as an assistant," the statement said. 

Comment:
Pride before the fall.  Just a thought.

Funds..

 

Gasoline..

 

The NYPD made a disturbing discovery inside a van that had been involved in an accident Tuesday night on a busy street in Manhattan near 42nd and 10th Avenue.

At first, the driver of the van tried to get rid of his keys and said he couldn't open the vehicle.

First responders noticed a strong smell of gasoline coming from the van and requested FDNY assistance.

Hazmat Units removed 76 20-pound propane cylinders, 15 5-gallon fuel containers for a total of 75 gallons of gasoline, and 10 gallons of diesel.

The driver was arrested and facing several charges, including reckless endangerment and multiple fire code violations.

Tips..

 

Like the House bill, the Senate bill would give certain workers an above-the-line deduction for “qualified tips” and “qualified overtime compensation” included on an information return furnished to the individual or reported on a Form 4137 (for tips) for taxable years beginning after December 31, 2024, and ending for taxable years beginning after December 31, 2028.  

This means the deductions are proposed to be retroactive and proposed to apply to amounts paid even before enactment of the bill.  

Making this deduction available to the worker creates reporting and withholding obligations for the service recipient. 

In order to be deductible as qualified overtime compensation the payment must be overtime paid as required under section 7 of the Fair Labor Standards Act that is in excess of the regular rate (as used in that section) at which such individual is employed.

 Qualified overtime compensation does not include any amount treated as a qualified tip.
