Ohhhh, that Stacy!

https://www.cnn.com/2022/10/01/politics/georgia-voting-rights-ruling-abrams-kemp/index.html

Abrams still has not conceded her loss (by 50,000 votes) in the2018 Ga gubernatorial race to Kemp

Instead she has been using the time to make money and fame for herself tilting at election windmills.
Now a Obama appointed federal judge has finally slammed the door on her sham performance.

The world is rising up against the violence against women in Iran, and the world is demanding better treatment for women in Iran.

One prominent Persian woman from Iran is Mahlagha Jaberi and she is speaking up for improved human rights for women in Iran. The world needs to make Mahlagha's voice LOUD as she pleads for improved rights for women in Iran. Mahlagha Jaberi can do an interview for Playboy, and for whatever magazines will interview her on the issue of improved human rights for women in Iran. And Mahlagha Jaberi can go on the morning shows such as Good Morning America and she can talk about the issue fo improved human rights for women in Iran. And Mahlagha Jaberi can go to the Vatican and she can talk with Pope Francis about improved human rights for women in Iran, etc. Mahlagha Jaberi can be a voice in the fight for improved rights for women in Iran.

Here is a link for the Facebook page for Mahlagha Jaberi...

https://www.facebook.com/MahlaghaOfficial

And Beverly Hills, and Los Angeles as a whole, supports improved human rights for the women of Iran.

Salute,

Tony V.

Watched Youtube yesterday, saw homeless people in Anerica.
One lady in a wheelchair asked the guy filming for some Coca Cola, and clothes (when asked what would brighten her day.)
She said the people there are nasty to her.
Exactly why the govt should have tent cities for all homeless people.
***
Also saw a homeless mom with 3 small girls, about 3, 6, and 8/ 9.
Then homeless and hungry men...one eating some fries he retrieved from a trash bin.

Floridians often dwell in a fantasy world.  And prefer to live where nature is most likely to deliver a reality check.  They're going to get sweet fuck all, in terms of rational leadership, from DeSantis and his ilk.  Or SFA from an increasing number of insurance underwriters, who are pulling out.

In Hollywood it was against the law to feed me when I was homeless. Everything was expensive and work was hard to get. So, it is different to be homeless in Hollywood than it is to be homeless in the OC.

In the OC you simply go to the Mental Health Association and they will put you in a shelter and they will feed you, and you can shower, and they have a Thrift Store where the homeless can get free clothes and free furniture for when they get into housing. The MHA will sign you up for all of the programs and the people can get on medication to stop the voices in their heads, and they can get therapy so that they come to reality, and they get the people into N/A, etc, whatever they need.

There is also a newer Wellness Center in Orange, if you are homeless then you simply go to the Wellness Center and they will put you into a shelter and get you a psychiatrist, and whatever you need. There are also abused women who need safe houses. And Foster youth who need group homes, etc.

The money to help the homeless in the OC is coming from every direction, money is coming from churches, charities, and also from the federal, state, county, and city governments, etc. The Wellness Center and the MHA are both being funded in a million ways.

Hollywood is cold, and hard, and brutal, but in the OC the Wellness Center in Orange and the MHA in Santa Ana will help you. Anaheim also has a Housing Authority to help people with housing, and Anaheim is a wealthy city, with Disney, the Ducks, the Angels, and with UCI medical school, and Fullerton Community College, and Cal State Fullerton, the OC is rich. The homeless people in Hollywood need to ride the Metrolink Trains to the OC and they need to go to the Wellness Center in Orange and they will get help immediately.

For the actors, new housing is being built in Hollywood for homeless actors, etc. SAG and other groups are involved with new housing for the actors, etc.

And the United Farm Workers can tell the refugees where the farm jobs are.

Salute,

Tony V.

Brad Pitt needs to come help the homeless in Hollywood.

There is a new six hundred million dollar movie studio that is going to be built in Hollywood.

And there is Occidental which is surrounded by cheap safe apartments, Disney uses Occidental all of the time.

Maybe Rick Caruso can help to save Hollywood, we will see.

Don Johnson is cool, and Morgan Fairchild is cool, and Dick Van Dyke is cool, there are a lot of people in Hollywood who help the homeless. Cheech and Chong are cool. There are a lot of good people. And we need for new young people to do public service.

Salute,

Tony V.

Yes

One was interviewed recently and not at all bothered with his status, getting a monthly check.

Not really much clue on Wisconsin in five weeks, either, given the averages at 538 have been showing spreads less than the average margin of error.  And North Carolina has been at a dead heat, pollwise, the past month.

Country song (US) on my radio now:
"There ain't no country music for old men".

Are there any old men left in America, or have they all been slaughtered in wars?
