Ordained..

 

Ingrid Lewis-Martin, a formidable former City Hall official and top consigliere of Mayor Eric Adams, is expected to be indicted in Manhattan as soon as Monday, The Post has learned.

Multiple sources close to Lewis-Martin said Sunday that she and her legal team were bracing for the criminal charges to emerge this week from the Manhattan District Attorney’s Office, leading to her sudden departure from the administration over the weekend.

The Manhattan prosecutors and city investigators have been probing the top aide’s alleged role in leasing commercial properties to her close friends.

For years, Lewis-Martin has served as Adams’ closest ally and — as she once told the New York Times — the mayor’s “sister ordained by God.

Clemency..

 

President Biden is commuting the sentences of close to 1,500 individuals who were placed on home confinement during the COVID-19 pandemic and who have successfully reintegrated into their families and communities. He is also pardoning 39 individuals who were convicted of non-violent crimes. These actions represent the largest single-day grant of clemency in modern history.

ABC..

 

 ABC will pay $15 million as part of a legal settlement with President-elect Donald Trump, closing out a dispute that centered on an interview in which Trump alleged anchor George Stephanopoulos defamed him.
Just a thought.

Conviction..


President Joe Biden this week granted clemency to the former Pennsylvania judge, Michael Conahan, as part of a mass commutation covering nearly 1,500 people who had been released on home confinement during the Covid pandemic.

Conahan was convicted in 2011 of funneling juveniles to for-profit detention centers in exchange for more than $2 million in kickbacks. He was sentenced to more than 17 years in prison after pleading guilty to racketeering conspiracy charges.

At the time, the U.S. attorney for the Middle District of Pennsylvania called the scandal “the worst in Pennsylvania’s history,” forcing the state to vacate thousands of juvenile convictions.

Calf Muscle..

 


The calf muscle is often referred to as the "second heart" because it plays a crucial role in pumping blood back up to the heart by contracting and squeezing the veins in the lower leg, essentially assisting the heart in circulation throughout the bodymaking it important to keep your calf muscles strong and healthy. 
  • When the calf muscles contract, they compress the veins in the legs, pushing blood back towards the heart. 
  • Sitting for long periods can hinder the calf muscle pump, which is why regular movement and exercise are important to maintain good circulation. 
  • Weak calf muscles can contribute to issues like swollen legs, varicose veins, and poor blood circulation. Just a thought.

 Volodymyr Zelenskyy has called on the world to be “united and stronger than ever” against Vladimir Putin as the UK said Russia is making “further gains” in Ukraine.

According to the latest intelligence update from the Ministry of Defense, Moscow’s troops are advancing on the “key logistical hub” of Pokrovsk in Donetsk after gaining control of the nearby village of Shevchenko.

In a post on X, the MoD said: “Russia will likely continue to make gains towards Pokrovsk whilst continuing to advance westwards to the south of the town.”

Zelensky wants to continue the war... Wounder why?
