Unstabilized..

 

A federal bankruptcy judge on Thursday rejected an attempt by Mayor Zohran Mamdani's A administration to delay the sale of thousands of rent-stabilized apartments owned by the real estate firm Pinnacle Group, complicating a citywide tenants union's mission to steer their homes to what it sees as a more responsible owner and delivering Mamdani an early setback.

Hours after taking office last week, Mamdani instructed the city’s law department to intervene in the looming bankruptcy sale of more than 90 buildings with a combined 5,100 rent-stabilized apartments all owned by Pinnacle. 

The properties had fallen into disrepair and amassed thousands of housing code violations under the company, which declared bankruptcy after defaulting on its loans totaling more than $560 million last year.

A woman named Tatyana Remley, convicted in a murder-for-hire plot targeting her estranged husband, died by suicide in December 2025 shortly after her release from prison.   

NBC San Diego reported that she pleaded guilty to solicitation to commit murder, and she was sentenced to serve three years and eight months in state prison.

An investigation into the matter was launched after a house fire was set at the couple’s ranch property in Del Mar, according to the San Diego County Sheriff’s Department. An arson unit was called to the scene, and Remley was arrested for alleged firearms-related offenses after authorities found three firearms and ammunition at the home.

Remley was involved in a plot to hire a hitman to kill her estranged husband, Mark Remley. Following a suspicious fire at their California property, an investigation began. 

She pleaded guilty to solicitation to commit murder and was sentenced to three years and eight months in prison in late 2023. 

In December 2025, shortly after her release, Remley died by a self-inflicted gunshot wound in San Diego, which the medical examiner ruled a suicide. 

Besides the case of Tatyana Remley, there are other instances of individuals involved in spousal abuse or murder plots who later died by suicide.

Fetter..

 

Senator John Fetterman criticized fellow Democrats for failing to "acknowledge" that the capture of Venezuela's authoritarian President Nicolas Maduro was a positive development for the South American country.

In a social media publication, Fetterman recalled that "less than a year ago, President Biden upped the Maduro bounty to $25,000,000."

Removing Maduro was positive for Venezuela. As a Democrat, I don't understand why we can't acknowledge a good development for Venezuelans—and how deft our military's execution of that plan was," Fetterman added.

The senator is among the Democrats who have questioned the overall response of the party. Axios reported that some in the more centrist wing of the party have suggested in private that colleagues should be celebrating Maduro's capture rather than denouncing it

Outbound..

 

Recent reports from 2025 and early 2026 confirm that California continues to experience the largest net population loss of any U.S. state, with more people leaving than arriving, largely driven by high living costs, housing prices, and taxes, with Texas and Florida being top destinations, according to U-Haul data and Census Bureau figures**. For instance, California had a net loss of over 254,000 residents in one recent period, nearly double the next state, New York, say KMPH reports on U-Haul data and Retirement Living analysis**.  

California consistently leads the nation in outbound migration, experiencing significant net losses in population.  

High housing costs, cost of living, and taxes are major factors pushing residents out, notes The Desert Sun citing U-Haul data and The New York Post citing the Journal of Consumer Research**.  

 Many former Californians are moving to states like Texas, Florida, Arizona, and Nevada, seeking more affordable lifestyles.  

In essence, while California sees many arrivals, the sheer volume of people leaving for more affordable regions makes it the state with the biggest net outflow, a trend confirmed by multiple data sources in late 2025 and early 2026, say NBC Bay Area reports, The Desert Sun, and AOL articles**. 

Lupine Beans ..

Lupine beans, also known as lupini beans, are white, round legumes popular in Mediterranean and Latin American cuisines, renowned for being high in protein and fiber while low in carbohydrates. They have a slightly nutty, briny flavor and a firm texture. 
 Lupine beans are considered a "superfood" due to their impressive nutritional profile. 
They are an excellent source of plant-based protein (around 40% protein when dried), containing all nine essential amino acids.

High in dietary fiber (around 37% fiber when dried), they aid digestion, support gut health by acting as a prebiotic, and promote a feeling of fullness, which can help with weight management.

With a low glycemic index, they are suitable for those managing blood sugar levels, including people with diabetes or following a keto diet.

They are packed with essential vitamins and minerals, including magnesium, potassium, iron, zinc, and phosphorus, which support heart health, bone health, and the immune system.

The fiber and protein in lupine beans help lower "bad" (LDL) cholesterol and the amino acid arginine helps improve blood flow and blood pressure. 

The most common way to enjoy them is as a salty, satisfying snack. Simply bite the tip of the outer skin and squeeze the inner bean into your mouth, discarding the skin. They can be seasoned with salt, lemon juice, and spices like cumin.

Weaver" Supremacy..

 

In an August 2019 post on X, then known as Twitter, Cea Weaver wrote “Private property including and kind of ESPECIALLY homeownership is a weapon of white supremacy masquerading as ‘wealth building’ public policy,” 

Weaver wrote. A screenshot of the post was shared by the conservative account Libs of Tiktok.

On his first day in office, Mamdani appointed Weaver as director of the Mayor’s Office to Protect Tenants. Weaver previously served as the executive director of Housing Justice for All and the New York State Tenant Bloc, according to a statement from the mayor’s office.

Welcome to the new trial.   Just a thought.

Bock..

 

A federal judge has finally pulled the plug on the lavish lifestyle of the woman prosecutors say sat at the center of the massive Minnesota fraud scandal that drained a staggering quarter-billion dollars from a program meant to feed hungry children. 

Aimee Bock, the 44-year-old ringleader behind the Feeding Our Future non-profit, She was found guilty on federal charges of bribery, wire fraud, and conspiracy in relation to the largest COVID-19 fraud scandal in America.

The ringleader of the Minnesota fraud scheme who once wrapped herself in the language of compassion and community service, has now been ordered to surrender her Porsche, diamond jewelry, designer handbags, electronics and millions of dollars tied to the fraud. The ruling marks a dramatic reversal for someone Aimee Bock, who allegedly turned pandemic relief into a personal ATM.

The Minnesota fraud case investigators say at least $250 million was siphoned off by Aimee Bock through a network of nonprofits and shell organizations that flourished during a period when oversight was loosened and urgency trumped verification. Officials warn the final price tag could climb even higher as financial records continue to be untangled.

The Bock.... Stopped here.
