Forget It Jake, It's Baltimore

Jazz Shaw at Hat Hair,  Ex-Baltimore State's Attorney Leniency Request Denied

Fate is fickle, or so the saying goes. That may be true for almost nobody in American politics as much as former Baltimore State's Attorney Marilyn Mosby. One day, not all that long ago, she was riding on top of the world. She had become famous (infamous?) for her handling of the Freddie Gray riots and her attempts to prosecute the police who arrested Gray rather than the criminals who started the riots. She was married to the upcoming President of the City Council and saw herself as next in line to be Mayor. Then things all began to fall apart. People began noticing that suspicious amounts of public funding had been mysteriously disappearing on her watch. Investigations were opened and before you knew it, she was facing charges in court which eventually took her down.

After being found guilty of embezzlement and fraud, she was eventually sentenced to house arrest and probation. Most recently, her attorneys asked the judge to alter the order, allowing her to have a curfew rather than full home detention. But now even that request has been denied. Apparently, the judge didn't find her explanation plausible enough to believe. (CBS News)
A judge rejected former Baltimore City State's Attorney Marilyn Mosby's request that would allow her to leave her home for a new job.

She was sentenced in May to three years of supervised release, 12 months of home confinement, and ordered to perform 100 hours of community service after she was convicted in her perjury and mortgage fraud trials.

Mosby's lawyers say she needs to go across Maryland for work. They suggested that her one-year home detention sentence be replaced with a 9 p.m. curfew.

Her attorneys say employment is a commonly granted exemption in similar cases. The judge said Mosby's lawyers had not provided requested details about the new job.
Mosby continues to set herself up for one failure after another. That marriage to a high-profile Baltimore politico fell apart. There is probably a lesson to be had there about rats and sinking ships. She was still even being nominated for a seat on the DNC, which also failed to happen. Even after the conviction, there were rumors (likely started by Mosby herself) that Joe Biden might pardon her, but that didn't happen either.

Now her request to have her home detention switched to a 9 pm curfew has been shot down. Why do you suppose that happened? The judge didn't find her request regarding a job to be plausible. Particularly in such a high-profile case they could have found someone to go investigate that job offer. If they were unable to find sufficient proof, that's almost certainly because there never was any real job. She made up the story and expected everyone to simply believe it as they would have in the "good old days." But that seems to have been the story of this prominent Baltimore Democrat's life. It was a series of schemes, one after another and she always felt as if the system owed it to her support her ambitions.
I wonder if she likes crossword or jigsaw puzzles?

Flotsam and Jetsam - Bret vs Kamala

The big Fox interview happened more or less on schedule last night between Fox moderator Bret Baier and Democrat presidential wannabe Kamala Harris. Reportedly, team Kamala arrived 15 minutes late, which gave the network a short slot, and a hard deadline to show it at 6 PM EDT. Bret likened it to icing the kicker. I missed most of it last night, since it came on at dinner time (call me anything, but don't call me late for dinner), but I listened to it this morning at Sundance's link below.

At Ace, For First Time, Kamala Harris Will Sit Down to Dodge Questions from Bret Baier "CNN's "media analyst" warns that Bret Baier "has a history of appeasing Fox's Trump-supporting audience.""

Among a number of the FLAS-funded programs on those campuses are professors who are blatantly teaching anti-semitism, encouraging violent demonstrations on behalf of the Hamas-dominated Palestinian population, and praising that terrorist group’s October 7, 2023, massacre of more than 1,200 Jews in Israel."

Forget It Jake, It's Baltimore

 Breitbart, Ravens Fan Caught on Video Attacking Commanders Fans in Downtown Baltimore

A disturbing video is going viral of a Baltimore Ravens fan marauding through downtown Baltimore and physically attacking Washington Commanders fans in the street after Sunday’s game. The video shows a hulking fan wearing a Lamar Jackson Baltimore jersey picking out two men wearing Commanders jerseys.

It is unclear what set this Ravens fan off, or if there was any previous interaction between this man and the two Commanders fans, but in the video, he is seen racing towards the two men and tries to kick one of them.

But before either of the two could do much to react to what was happening, the Ravens fan delivered a brutal haymaker to one of the Commanders fan’s face, sending him to the pavement. The Ravens fan then takes out after the second man, who runs to get away from the assault.

After the second Commanders fan scampers away, the Ravens fan screams, “I don’t lose,” as the video ends.

It is unclear if the police ever became involved in the incident. Still, many on X have already claimed to have identified the attacker as a man who works for an insurance company in Baltimore.
Saturday Sunday night's is all right for fighting.... 

Flotsam and Jetsam - Kamala Attempts to Bribe Black Men

At ZeroHedge, After Locking Up 1000s For Weed Possession, Kamala Harris Patronizes Black Men In Pot Pandering Scheme

On track to post Democrats' worst presidential-election performance with blacks in 64 years, a desperate Kamala Harris smashed the vote-buying button on Monday, proposing an "Opportunity Agenda" for black men that includes dishing out one million "forgivable loans" at $20,000 each.

The loans would be offered to black entrepreneurs "in partnership with trusted organizations like mission-driven lenders and banks with a proven commitment to their communities," the Harris-Walz campaign said. If these "forgivable loans" are anything like the ones dished out to businesses during the madness of Covid stimulus, they'll be loans in name only -- meaning this is just a blatant wealth redistribution scheme aimed at buying black votes.

Unsurprisingly, the campaign provided few details about the program's requirements -- such as just how black one will need to be to qualify . . .

Da Caller, Kamala Harris Didn’t Send 1500 People To Jail For Pot — It Was More Than That. WokeSpy, Kamala Harris Proposes $20,000 Forgivable Loans for Black Entrepreneurs. Nick Pope at Da Caller, Kamala Harris Appears To Propose New Race-Based Payments As Support From Black Men Lags. It's hard to see this as anything but a last-ditch attempt to lure back black men straying from the fold. It would, of course, be shot down by the Supreme, with the added benefit that they could then rail against the Supreme Court (more). Bill Otis at the Ringside, sees Kamala Harris reach out to men. "This is not satire, although it would win an award if it were." Matt Vespa at TownHall, Fox News Host Wasn't Going to Let Kamala's Spokesperson Get Away With This Laughable Spin Line "The red flags are everywhere that Kamala is doing historically poor with men, especially men of color." At NYPo, Democrats have a man problem, and belittling them is only making it worse. At Althouse, "Nothing has come to fruition. Look at the schools, the playgrounds, the parks. Downtown is struggling. In our community, typically, we vote for Democrats." ""How has that panned out for us? You’re so bold and loud when you want to help transgender people, immigrants. [Harris] said she wouldn’t pass anything for just Black people, but you had no problem with the LGBT community. Give us some hope you’re listening to our concerns." Said Ahmad Taylor, 47, of Pontiac, Michigan, quoted in "In a Michigan city, Harris has failed to catch fire with Black men/In December, Black men in Pontiac told The Post they were unenthused about Biden. Now, some feel the same about Harris" (WaPo)(free-access link)."

Althouse, "Vice President Kamala Harris has gone 86 days as the presumptive, and now, official Democratic nominee for president without holding an official press conference." "Says Fox News, just Fox News, but isn't it true? It seems impossible. I'm reading about this and that podcast, and an occasional interview with a mainstream newsperson, such as Fox's Bret Baier coming up, but never a news conference. How is it possible to rise to the presidency without one attempt at handling a press conference?" Also, "In a July interview... Rogan called Harris 'the worst'... said he was bothered to see her suddenly viewed as a 'hero' and 'solution,' wondered if she was medicated...", "... with anti-anxiety medications because of 'disconnected ramblings,' but still said he thinks she will win the presidency because people think she’s a stronger alternative than Trump. In a September interview... Rogan said, 'whoever’s coaching her, whoever’s the puppet master running the strings' is doing a 'f****** amazing job.'..." Sundance at CTH doesn't expect much from Brett Baier Scheduled to Interview Kamala Harris – Tomorrow, Wednesday.
