NY GOV KATHY HOCHUL WIPES ASS WITH 4A, DEPLOYS NATIONAL GUARD TO SUBWAY: “Hochul is ordering a force of nearly 1,000 people, comprising 750 National Guard members, state police and transit officers, to conduct bag checks at some of the busiest stations.”
Now it’s all over Nikki Haley,
And the vote count is in.
Your campaign’s dead.
I guess MAGA won again.
Now it’s all over Nikki Haley,
And the vote count is in.
THIS WAS THEIR PLAN ALL ALONG: “Starting today, Primary Pivot will become Haley Voters for Biden, and urge anyone who supported Haley in a swing state to stick with the president in November.”
NO ZIONISTS ALLOWED: In a deliciously unhinged instagram post, SLC bar owner declares – “We are a business, but we are also human. We don’t make and sell cider for robots. … We are horrified by the ongoing genocide in Gaza and are even more horrified to see so many Americans ignore and rationalize ethnic cleansing. That is why we are pleased to announce we are banning all Zionists forever from our establishments.” No word on how he feels about forcing people to bake cakes for same-sex weddings.
THE ORIGIN OF THE WHITE LIBERAL BAD CONSCIENCE: Over at The American Mind, the indispensible Raw Egg Nationalist gives us our serious read for today.
AUTHOR JK ROWLING PISSES OFF YET ANOTHER TRANS PERSON: ‘The UK’s first transgender national news anchor has reported “Harry Potter” author JK Rowling to the police for “misgendering” her as a “man” on social media.’ Granted, this happened limeyland which is already crushed under the spike heel of wokeism. And there’s a big difference between calling the police and them actually doing something. But the QUILTBAG++ so want to use the law to silence anyone who isn’t in lockstep with their agenda.
PAGING MARY SHELLEY: Scientists doing sciencey things with elephant cells say they can de-extinctimufy the woolly mammoth by 2028. Where would it live? What would it do? Would it count as an endangered species? Would Animal be allowed to hunt it? Why not the dire wolf, or the cave bear, or T. Rex? And why stop there? Will they clone Raquel Welch (†2023, RIP) and have her ride one while wearing a fur bikini?
“Hochul is ordering a force of nearly 1,000 people, comprising 750 National Guard members, state police and transit officers, to conduct bag checks at some of the busiest stations.”
How is it any different from the TSA? Both are 4a violations, but our judiciary is okay with it, sadly.
“Thirty-eight people were arrested and accused of crimes against transit employees last year, and they had more than 600 prior arrests, Lieber said. He claimed that 1% of subway suspects were responsible for more than 20% of the crime.”
I’m surprised it is only 1% to 20%. I would think higher. If you got rid of the top 5% of offenders you would probably remove 50% of crime.
Pareto distributions at work. These are the really competent criminals, like the President, Senate and House.
Which goes to show that unless they start prosecuting some of these people nothing will change.
600 arrests. How many convictions?
Good question. And I’d like to see conviction figures broken down by assailee — transit employee vs other rider. And figures for probation, “diversion,” etc.
They’re all out w/o bail.
Why not just put criminals in jail?
Soros DAs won’t do that so they hassle everyone instead.
It’s not the first time. There are at least other options.
That said it’s pure theater. They can’t actually search your person. If you wanted to bring something on the train you’d just put it on your body.
“So basically, if you assault someone on the subways, you won’t be on the subways,” she said. “And a judge will now have the power to make sure that for at least three years they’ll have the ability to keep you off the subways.”
Punishment for assaults and stabbing – “now you don’t get to ride the subway!”
Just like the border, we haven’t had this problem before, it just sprung up out of nowhere and it’s a total mystery why it’s happening.
I didn’t read that far. Glad I’m not in NY anymore.
Good to see you RAH.
The NYPD pulled this shit after 9/11 and the left tore itself apart because politics and rAcIsM.
That said, this is the same woman who was claiming just yesterday that crime is down and anything you see otherwise is just your imagination.
How the hell do they keep getting away with this shit?!
And that judge’s order will be enforced how, exactly?
National Guard has a shitter union than the Police.
Yeah, the problem on the NYC subways is people are smuggling stuff onto the trains in their bags.
Isn’t there a posse comitatus issue with this?
Enh, it kind of is, at least currently. Of course nothing is stopping our friendly neighbors from resorting to fisticuffs eventually.
Not that they won’t be going after little grandmas instead of the guys you can look in the eyes and know they’re carrying illegally.
Look at you, all clever and hiding music.
I saw your comment in a dead thread, about what have I done with somebody. I assume you refer to my avatar. I have not posted much, lately, but Bender has been my avatar long before either you or the other guy using that avatar joined Reason, probably by at least a decade. Nice to meet you, have a great evening!
Omg. This is glibs, not TOS. Obviously, I have not been on Glibs for decades. Lol
Around here, spring is still coiling itself in preparation for a sproing.

NY GOV KATHY HOCHUL WIPES ASS WITH 4A, DEPLOYS NATIONAL GUARD TO SUBWAY: “Hochul is ordering a force of nearly 1,000 people, comprising 750 National Guard members, state police and transit officers, to conduct bag checks at some of the busiest stations.”
…because the NYPD is so woefully understaffed and underfunded.
Hey, that’s not NYPD turf – that’s Transit Authority (and their unions).
I failed The North Face’s nonsense diversity test…and I’m getting tired of this divisive corporate virtue signalling
https://www.dailymail.co.uk/debate/article-13164633/Nana.html
At this point, anyone I see wearing North Face or Patagonia, I assume they’re a poofter and poseur whose idea of going outdoors is having a macchiato in a half-acre city “greenspace.”
Hate Bird gear is for the same poseurs who have money to burn.
Hey, I have some 20 year Patagonia fleece pants that I pretty much live in during the winter.
Yeah, I’ve got a some Patagonia things that I’ve had forever that are still in great shape. One is a windresistant heavy fleece jacket that is stupid warm, but has started to get a little stiff? Crunchy. The others are light or heavy fleece layers that are still like new.
It depends on where you are. If they are wearing it in a coffee shop downtown Denver? Yeah, no. If you are up in Aspen going for coffee? Sure. It’s the posing that irritates you, not the brand, IMHO.
we are banning all Zionists forever from our establishments.
Do they make you sign a loyalty oath at the door?
There’s a café in my town that has a sign along the lines that those who like Putin wouldn’t be served. I noticed this place and sign back in 2020, if not earlier. I guess they are more likely to be Ukrainians than brainwashed Democrats; the first version of the sign was grammatically incorrect. Nobody was outraged by this, including me. Though, it never occurred to me to visit the café. I’m not particularly concerned if some establishments don’t serve Zionists.
Seems like this violates public accommodation laws, at a minimum.
“One commenter wondered if the bar would “ask for someone’s Zionist papers” at the door.”
Of course the article retails UN and Hamas numbers on how many have been killed, how many children are starving, etc.
The guy in the picture holding the “Homos 4 Gaza” sign needs to hop the first plane over there and report back to us on the Gazan homo solidarity front.
While wearing a rainbow Che shirt?
Ha! Glad someone noticed that. And those same ppl say *I’m* delusional for supporting the right of ppl to not bake a cake…
Well shit, now there is someone who can write on Nietzsche far better than I can.
Though this is shit I still can’t grok. I simply don’t believe we have that innate drive – at least not all of us. I don’t believe this exists in nature – in other species, such as the mountain lion enjoying the killing of a deer. It just does it because it is food. Now granted, a full belly makes any beast more contented than an empty one. But that is not the same as taking pleasure in the infliction of misery on another. That one seems to be a cultivated and human characteristic.
I dunno, man. My Siamese cat doesn’t eat the mice she tortures to death.
Stop feeding that cat and tell me how it plays with food instead of eating it.
‘the mountain lion enjoying the killing of a deer’
Don’t you think it would be evolutionarily beneficial to enjoy killing (for a carnivore)?
No doubt that filling up an empty belly is pleasing to the predator. If the killing is what it enjoys then why doesn’t it kill more than it eats?
Don’t cats do this?
I don’t honestly know if it is only domesticated carnivores or what.
I suspect that in the wild, finding barely enough to survive is more the norm. I doubt many carnivores live with such a surplus of game that they can go out and kill an animal just to watch it die.
But we’ll never know, on account of animals being notoriously reluctant to discuss their innermost thoughts.
Yeah, there is that – damn introverts.
Most, if not all, predators will play with their food. They especially do this when they are young. For social animals, all of them, empathy is inborn. To overcome it and learn how to kill so that they can eat they will play with their food. ‘Play’ STEVE SMITH style. It looks like torture because…it is.
Cruelty and empathy, devilry and kindness…exist in nature.
Why would you think we are any different than other animals, or they from us?
We really a’int all that special.
The culture retains it and since Christianity doesn’t redeem it any longer, it attaches to something else rather than fade from the scene. Nietzsche got that one wrong.
Which goes to show that unless they start prosecuting some of these people nothing will change.
We already know what will happen to anybody who wins a fight with a crazy homeless person. Full force and majesty of the law.
It has been more than 4,000 years since the woolly mammoth last walked the Earth, but these extinct giants might not be gone for good.
Researchers have made a major breakthrough that could see woolly mammoths returning to life before 2028.
Well, the first thing you’ll have to do is convert the rolling sub-arctic prairies of Siberia back into forest so that the mammoth have habitat.
But one steppe at a time, I suppose.
It’s been a trunkated process.
Tusk tusk, you two and your puns.

Lol, just a month ago he was on Joe Rogan. I like Joe, but it only took me one time listening to one of his episodes with Josh Dubin to know Dubin was full of shit.
Just as few more years before they resurrect a mammoth. But the process does take a lot of energy, for which they will use a fusion reactor.
I’ll deliver one to them in my flying car.
The idea of somebody being “banned” from the subway is no less preposterous than the Park Service “ban” somebody from the saying they will “ban” you from any or all national parks.
*They sometimes do this in the case of somebody guilty of spectacular dumbassery in Yellowstone. As if every body in every park in the nation is on High Alert for that one guy who went skinny dipping in the Lamar River in the middle of a herd of buffalo.

I wish Egg was giving us more evidence of the Bushnell’s race-based bad conscience. [as an aside, does anyone else find the spelling of con-science weird?)
This feels like an essay he wanted to write without the necessary connection to current events… unless you keep reading.
‘Which is why, whether you agree or not with Nietzsche’s account of the origin of the bad conscience, and with his assessment of Christianity as its pinnacle, it’s almost impossible to ignore the close parallels between what Nietzsche sats about bad conscience on the one hand and the beliefs and unspeakable self-cruelty of a young man like Aaron Bushnell on the other. ‘
Egg needs to crucify his editor.
‘“Whiteness needs to be abolished,” Bushnell wrote. America is a white-supremacist settler-colonial nation, and so on. There’s lots of talk of “imperialism,” and how his complicity in it made him, and even his own family, a lesser class of person. In one post he described at length how violence against his own family would be okay if it came from “people who are resisting my family’s occupation of their land.” Elsewhere he said, “My so-called ‘human rights’ can’t override those of the people I am colonizing,” and so if you are a “colonizer” you forfeit your human rights, including the right to “bodily safety.”
What a loon, but that is the very logical result of leftard thinking.
“How could a mentally unstable gay race communist end up in an important cryptological unit right in the heart of the military intelligence establishment? ”
That is probably the only people they want. How else to oppress the white capitalist straights?
“[in liberalism] there really can be no expiation. Not even the death of the sinner, the ultimate sacrifice, can wash the sin away. Not even the death of God in man’s stead, because in this scheme God doesn’t even exist. What comfort Jesus’s sacrifice offered the tormented Christian—gone, forever. There is just torment.”
Strong finish. I think this has been repeatedly pointed out here, that leftism (‘liberalism’) is Christianity without the redemption… or the love.
Christianity produced some fanatics through the years but the gospels have enough forgiveness built in that there’s a “good enough” aspect for most believers.
Wokeism is more of the “doin good ain’t got no end” kind of religion. Those who don’t keep up with the latest crazy notion are sacrificed to the gods (demons) of woke and hurled into the void.
Performance review
President Joe Biden is set to use his State of the Union address Thursday to promote his vision for a second term to a dispirited electorate that questions whether he’s up to the job and to warn that GOP front-runner Donald Trump would be a dangerous alternative.
Biden’s third such address from the House rostrum will be something of an on-the-job interview, as the nation’s oldest president tries to quell voter concerns about his age and job performance while sharpening the contrast with his all-but-certain November rival.
The president hopes to showcase his accomplishments on infrastructure and manufacturing, as well as push for action on aid to Ukraine, tougher migration rules, and lower drug prices, among other issues. But as he does so, the 81-year-old president will be closely watched not just for his message but for whether he can deliver it with vigor and command.
“I’m an excellent President.”
“That’s what it says on this card.”
This guy has totally shit the bed on like 6 major issues. Usually just one of those would sink a presidency. It still amazes me at how truly bad he is.
“Granted, this happened limeyland which is already crushed under the spike heel of wokeism. And there’s a big difference between calling the police and them actually doing something”
According to Konstatin Kisin (triggernometry guy) they arrest 3k people/year for internet postings. Some they actually follow through on and punish.
How many of those were obe and richer than the king?
“A mixed-race man talks about getting quizzical looks in the Swiss mountains and being asked that dreaded question ‘where are you from?’, by his (presumably white, although it isn’t spelled out) fellow snowboarders.”
It is only a weird question if you make it weird. Especially when you’re on vacation… in another country.
‘I am not suggesting that there isn’t an issue with a lack of diversity in outdoor activities. But the reasons for that are highly complex and nuanced, and not the sort of thing that can be addressed by asinine tick-boxes.’
I don’t think lack of diversity in ‘outdoor activities’ is an issue at all. It is okay if black people like sports more than hiking, that isn’t a problem to be solved.
Like someone with pale skin is just going to be completely taken as a local in West Africa?
Heck, when I was traveling in Russia people could tell I wasn’t local just by looking at me. Made it impossible to get the local prices at museums and other tourist attractions.
You really can tell. I was in Croatia and they wouldn’t believe I was from the USA because I looked Polish (I’m half Polish). *shrug*
I can speak Slovak without an accent, which really throws off the locals. They sense that I’m not from there, but they are afraid to ask. When they find out they usually ask if my parents were from there, and I say, “No, I’m just a really good spy.”
I had to argue with some Canadians one time I was up there vacationing, as they didn’t believe I was from the US.
Try going to the Philippines. “Blend in with the locals”, the travel briefing advised. My wife was able to get local prices so long as it appeared she wasn’t with me.
That’s the way we did it too. My wife was able to get local prices even though she’s not Russian, but she has the Slavic look. We got a bargain on a tour of Petrodvorets because an off-duty tour guide was recruiting people for her tour. It was cheaper than even the official local rate. My wife told me, “The tour guide knows we’re not Russian. She thinks we’re both Slovak. Keep your mouth shut.”
In China, furriners get better prices and service. That might have changed since 2001 but dang that was weird. I suppose the “higher ups” told them to do so.
Funny, nobody thought I was Japanese…
Everybody thought I was American in the Nagasaki Atomic Bomb Museum.
They would have called you Russian in Vietnam.
But you forgot that blacks can’t racism.
Also, I thought Northface was ‘urban’-wear anyway.
I ask folks on the ski lifts where they’re from all the time. It usually results in a pleasant conversation; I don’t think it’s ever become a vignette in some bitchy DEI survey.
Well, when you are skiing, everybody is from somewhere else. Nobody lives on the ski slopes. Most everybody travels some distance. It’s a natural question.

What drinking game are you playing?
take a drink every time he shout-whispers?
Also drink every time he mentions white nationalists or a threat to democracy.
Drink or sip? Do you plan on lasting more than 20 minutes?
It’s Brandon. The only proper thing to do is go out on your balcony and shotgun a beer
Those things can blow your lungs out!
I’m not sure if anyone here hates themselves enough to watch for more than 20 minutes.
You have to chug if he reads any instructions aloud: “[PAUSE FOR APPLAUSE]”
Oh Ill snort a an ounce of ketamine for that.
And you’ll still be more coherent than Joe.
I saw Trump is going to do a live commentary, which sounds like it could be fun, but it’s on Truth Social. No thanks.
Viva Frei says he’s doing likewise, but in lieu of a drinking game, he’s made up a “Connect 4” card (not as big as a Bingo card) with things he predicts Biden will say or do (including “blank stare” and “farts.”) I suspect it will be on both YT and Rumble.
HMmm…I wonder if Rekieta plans on anything? I’ll check his Rumble…(I want to see someone get shitfaced)

What happens when you reward something? Who can guess what happens next?
Anyone guess that the rape stats are going to be horrible as all the illegals are raped by some stranger and now get a visa to be here legally? I’m sure that the visa will allow them to get government $$$.
I think we need to get a Glibs outreach program to coordinate with these victims. We could teach them how to describe STEVE SMITH when reporting their victimization. The only silver lining to this stupidity would be to see a 80000% increase in rapes in Minneapolis and all the victims claim that their attacker is a large hairy monster.
The county DA behind this genius idea loves her perps.

Incentives, how do they effing work?
Tell me when you figure it out. I hate it when people give me things.
I’m not clear on this – they have to get raped here in order to stay? Talk about perverse incentives.
I think they just need to report that they were raped. I don’t even think they need to catch a suspect. As long as you “assist investigators”. The genius of everyone describing STEVE SMITH as their attacker is that then they are victims of a serial rapist. #STEVETO
Of course, the ultimate FU to that shitty husband is to accuse him of domestic abuse and get your visa and have him deported.
No doubt that filling up an empty belly is pleasing to the predator. If the killing is what it enjoys then why doesn’t it kill more than it eats?
Sometimes they do. Wolves will kill a whole field full of sheep instead of just one. A friend told me about the night an owl got into his chicken coop and pulled the heads off all his chickens.
My little black kitty cat used to play with a rodent until the batteries were just about worn down, and then hop around it on her back feet with her front paws in the air in celebration.
Also drink every time he mentions white nationalists or a threat to democracy.
That qualifies as depraved indifference.

Whoever we elect is going to suck so I’m pretty much anybody but Mrs Gov.
My head is spinning at the levels of chess involved but… the hive mind deciding as one that “democracy is on the ballot” is one of the laffiest strategies I’ve even seen. In case you were wondering where a party platform goes when it has nothing to offer… there it is.
I wonder if she will be as perplexed as L Cheney and Mitts when the Dems turn on them again after they outlive their usefulness.
You know all the right wing memesters want her to win the GOP nomination in 2028 so that they can do the contrast and compare how the Dems called her a principled defender of Democracy in 2024 to the same people calling her literally Hitler in 2028.
I’m surrounded by people who buy into it. “Aren’t you afraid of the authoritarianism? It’s an existential test of American democracy.”
I just shrug and despair. And drink.
Time to move.
They wanted me to hang around. I told them “I don’t like your shitty equipment, I don’t like scheduling and the way you over-promise causing me and my guys to be on-site for 16 hours, and I don’t like the shitty way half of you morons do testing. Fuck you, fuck you, fuck you….you’re cool….fuck you. I’m out.”

Guess he doesn’t know that an impeachment is just an indictment, not a conviction.
@Rhy: So, since I can’t get my amphetamine (nor can anyone else), I decided I’d sub it out with Diet Mt Dew. I have in the past expressed my disgust with it, but formula must have changed (or I forgot what Mt Dew tastes like), because it’s decent.
A lot of my guys are energy-drink addicts. I try to leave the stuff alone, but those Celcius thingys arent bad.
And each has like 200 mg of caffeine.
That’s about what you get from 2 -3 cups of coffee. I just don’t get people who swill energy drinks all day long. I figure they have a heavy caffeine addiction, and if they don’t keep topped off they start withdrawing. Which I accidentally did when I visited my parents after they switched to decaf – it is unpleasant. It did convince me cut back on my coffee intake, though.
When Im working out of town, usually a cup of coffee, since we almost always stop at some generic Kwik-e-Mart.
I’m an ice tea guy.
I will sleep all day without something. I’ve been like that since I was a teenager. Somehow, I made it through most of my life barely able to function through the afternoon, but Vyvanse made my life much, MUCH easier.
I am down to 1 cup of coffee a day. But yeah, late afternoons and early evenings have been rough lately.
LOL I thought UCS was the Diet Dew expert around here but darn it all I was just thinking of picking up some Dew from the vending machine in my lobby shortly. For the caffeine. It helped last night 🙂
But yes, the diet version is not bad. Of the Big Box diet soft drinks it’s definitely the best.

I read once as a boy that Teddy Roosevelt ate mammoth meat. Turns out that story was a confabulation. Mammoth meat was supposedly served for an Explorers Club dinner at the Roosevelt Hotel in 1951, but DNA tests on the leftovers decades later revealed it was actually sea turtle meat. Shame on those dastardly culinary counterfeiters. The gullible diners went home that night bragging they had dined on the flesh of a prehistoric beast found in the arctic by a mysterious Jesuit-turned geologist called The Glacier Priest. The story was a wild pack of lies, of course, but the world is full of people ready to believe tall tales.

Bernard Rosecrans Hubbard (November 24, 1888 – May 28, 1962) was an American geologist and explorer who popularized the Alaskan wilderness in American media during the middle of the 20th century. Known as “the Glacier Priest”, he was a Jesuit priest, head of the Department of Geology at the University of Santa Clara, California, and for a time was the highest-paid lecturer in the world, leading 31 expeditions into Alaska and the Arctic.[3][4]

It was mock mammoth soup.

I don’t understand that thing where somebody is talking, and there’s a bunch of people standing behind them. You see it all the time with government people, but I don’t recall really seeing it with real people.
I’ve seen it often enough that some corporate pres is making an announcement backed by district VP, regional VP, and all sorts of various underlings and sycophants.
Any ground breaking for a hospital, for instance.
Having a bunch of people stand behind you as you speak makes you appear as a leader. For a similar reason, the judge is seated above everyone else in a courtroom.

Did drugs fall out of the wheel well too?
The drugs were hidden behind the little door to the gas tank.
Hailey voters for Biden:
The ruling class, composed of the worst pieces of shit on the planet, are determined they will ram whatever they want down our throats whether we like it or not. If not, then go fuck yourself. Oh, and send me your children so I can send them off to dumbfuckistan to have their arms, legs, heads and dicks blown off.

Even as a goof, I’d love for Trump to post on Twitter that he’s going to run as a democrat.
Which isn’t far from his roots or ideology.
Bushnell’s wiki bio says his USAF job was client systems specialist, which basically an IT fix-it guy. He probably worked with NSA computers, contractors, and employees, but did not have access to classified info. He certainly wasn’t at the tip of the spear. The fervor young men feel for causes they believe in can appear like insanity to others. If I had gotten the chance to talk with him, I’d probably tell him that since he was not directly involved in any violence himself, he had no reason to feel guilty. Whether he was in USAF or not, everything would be the same. It’s easier to change yourself than it is to change the world.
If he was an IT guy, he likely had a clearance but was unlikely to have any sort of access to the actual intel production systems/databases. Plus NSA-T is EUCOM/SOUTHCOM-centric, not CENTCOM. He wasn’t motivated by anything other than being, quite literally, terminally online.

So, Doritos.
Their best flavor was ranch-dipped Buffalo wings
I never ate a dorito, but that sounds kind of busy.

I forget what that means. I cant keep up with all of the abbreviations, symbols and acronyms. Lets not even start on all of the euphemisms…

I thought that meant Jewish.
Maybe if I had a larger phone I could tell the difference.

A guy in my brother’s high school class did this Dorito’s commercial:

“Bird of Prey”
He wasn’t still on high school, and now that I think of it, I only know that he was involved somehow, because he had put on Facebook that we should all vote for the commercial as the best one.

They like to use Rossini as a soundtrack for Doritos for some reason.
I’m glad I don’t work at that company…
Utility provider Xcel Energy said its equipment appeared to have sparked the Smokehouse Creek fire. The Minnesota-based company said in the news release that it did not believe its equipment caused the ignition of the Windy Deuce fire, nor was it aware of any allegations that it had. A company spokesman said in an email that there are power lines owned and operated by various companies in that area.

In a statement that followed Xcel Energy’s news release, Mikal Watts, the attorney who filed the lawsuit on behalf of the homeowner, said that an inspection Wednesday of the downed utility pole found “a heavily degraded wooden pole that should have been removed from service long ago.”
In reply, the company’s attorney, Nick Voltman, said he will appeal the charges to the circuit court.

“The University of Virginia spends $20 million a year on its 235 DEI staffers, including a woman who says the opioid epidemic is payback for the ‘toxicity of whiteness,’ a damning report says.
Open the Books, a spending watchdog, says the flagship public college in Charlottesville drops $15 million on salaries and $5 million more in benefits to its diversity, equity, and inclusion (DEI) team.
They include Rachel Spraker, an ‘equity and inclusive’ officer, who calls Appalachia’s wave of premature deaths a sign of ‘white toxicity,’ and the school’s diversity chief Martin Davidson, who pockets nearly $600,000 a year.”

“A mother who calls herself a specialist in erectile dysfunction, her son and her boyfriend, are behind bars, accused of a litany of child sex abuse charges that left a judge with 25 years on the bench in Florida ‘shocked.’
This week, police in Boca Raton, along with FBI agents, raided the home that Walquiria Cassini, 38, her son, Matthew, 20, and her boyfriend Ryan Londono, 42, all shared. The raid came after a four month long investigation.
Cassini is accused of sexually abusing two male children, the youngest of which is under ten, and charging online perverts a fee to watch. The abuse of her youngest child began when he was just five, the other when he was nine. ”
