> so I could write congress

KEK!!

Oh man, that is your first mistake. Actually thinking Congress would do anything FOR you.

You'd MAYBE get the standard "roach letter" reply, thanking you for reaching out, maybe touching on how they "value" your input, but that's about it.

They only engage the little people for SHOW. None of them are actually elected.

It's a Popularity contest at best, used as a distraction so general pop gets the "feels" that they have any kind of power.

PFFFTTT.

They all lie. Make promises they never keep, dangle excuses about why they actually can't change shit, like carrots over the rabbit cage, just to keep people engaged, so they don't become enraged. But hey now, send your donation to xxxx on the socials, cause THEY are different!

Just another baby for them.’ Parents, feds fight for kids stuck in Florida nursing homes

 

Atthe PlantationNursing and Rehabilitation Center on Northwest Fifth Street, frail men and women with wheelchairs, walkers, and hearing aids live out their last years in an institutional setting. Nearby, but in a world of their own, medically fragile youngsters at the start of life’s journey spend day after day, year after year, confined to cribs.

 

These children may spend the rest of their lives right here, with little to do but stare at a television, watched over by shift workers.

 

They are the littlest residents of Florida nursing homes. And they occupy an institution within an institution, a place called TheKidz Korner.

 

Court records in a federal lawsuit set for trial on Monday describe the above conditions and assert that Florida’s reliance on such institutions for the care of fragile children is a violation of their civil rights and an affront to federal laws that require the housing and treatment of disabled people in home-like settings whenever possible.

 

The legal drama, a decade old, could result in a reckoning for Florida.

 

The state likes to boast of its stellar finances — the$117 billion budgetapproved this month set a record. At the same time, it tightly rations funds for the care of children and others who require help. Regardless of need, lawmakers decide what they want to spend on Floridians with severe disabilities and medical needs. When the money runs out, that’s it. And for those left out, it’s sorry, maybe next year. It’s why Floridians needing social services languish on waiting lists for years, even decades.

 

Providing at-home nursing assistance and medical equipment might not cost much more than a nursing home bed, while allowing parents to nurture their fragile children at home. With Medicaid managed care plans dispensing the state’s dollars, though, few families are approved for round-the-clock nursing care, children’s advocates say. Those who are approved must cope with notoriously unreliable in-home nursing, a byproduct of the state’s penurious reimbursement rates.

 

And so parents, many of whom cherish their children and want to show them love and affection, are forced to put them in nursing homes, sometimes hundreds of miles distant. Kidz Korner is one of three nursing homes in the state that currently house children.

 

“This warehousing of children,” said Kenneth Goodman, who founded and directs the medical ethics program at the University of Miami Miller School of Medicine, “is beneath us.”

 

“If we saw children being treated this way anywhere else, we would see it as a form of abuse or neglect,” Goodman said. “We choose to allow these children to languish. And that is morally unconscionable. It is willful and collective abuse.”

 

State health administrators long have insisted that the care children are given in nursing homes is superior to what parents can offer.

 

But the state’s own inspection records speak of children left for hours in diapers “soaked with urine,” of children contracting dangerous respiratory infections from contaminated medical equipment, of a child losing nearly 50% of her body weight, of soiled, moldy buildings and piles of dirty laundry.

 

Mary L. Ehlenbach, the medical director of the Pediatric Complex Care Program at the University of Wisconsin in Madison, wrote in a report that parents often are held to a higher standard than the institutions that are being paid hundreds of thousands per year. Some parents, for example, said nursing home administrators told them their children couldn’t go home until the family had a large private bedroom for the disabled child. At the nursing home, though, the children sometimes live three or four to a room.

 

“Parents don’t want their children exported to institutions 300 or 400 miles away to be warehoused,” said Dr. Jeffrey Goldhagen, the division chief of community and societal pediatrics at the University of Florida College of Medicine in Jacksonville.

Epstein's Fren?

 

Yes, Nick Cannon has 11 kids with six women. He also makes $100 million a year

 

Yes, Nick Cannon has 11 kids with six women. He also makes $100 million a year

 

That’s how he ended up with a nursery in his office building — a neon-lit room with tumbling mats, a ball pit and toy instruments. Today, his 6-month-old daughter, Onyx, is the only one of his children using the space. It’s 6 p.m. on a Monday, and Cannon is running late. He has yet to return to his Burbank headquarters after dropping off his 6-year-old son, Golden, at Mandarin class. So Onyx is alone in the play space with her nanny, who notices me waiting and invites me to take off my shoes and join them. We watch the baby bounce in her jumper, cooing at her when she presses buttons or shakes a rattle.

 

At 6:45 p.m., Cannon arrives, cuddles Onyx and then leads me into his office. It’s the most sober area at Ncredible Productions, where the chalkboard walls are covered in scribbles and employees have access to a candy bar, game room and a pingpong table. In Cannon’s private domain, immense black-and-white photographs of him marching in Black Lives Matter protests hang above the desk. Steel letters spelling out “Zen” — the name of his 5-month-old son who died from brain cancer last year — rest against a windowsill.

 

So no matter what people think, Cannon, 42, knows the cost of parenthood. Emotionally and, well, financially.

 

A few months ago, Cannon rebutted a tabloid report that he pays $3 million per year in child support. In fact, he responded, the figure was actually much higher.

 

“That’s not a lot of money,” he says now, swiveling his chair.

 

It’s not?

 

“When you think about my lifestyle, I have to generate at least $100 million a year.”

 

You’re currently making $100 million a year?

 

“Yeah,” he says, laughing. “Everybody thinks Ryan Seacrest has tons of money. I do everything that he does times 10. Well, not times 10 — times three. Because he does a lot.”

 

Here are all of the things Nick Cannon does: He hosts two seasons a year of the Fox competition series “The Masked Singer,” for which he says he’s paid more than $20 million. He hosts "Wild 'N Out," the freestyle comedy show he created in 2005, which starts filming its 21st season for VH1 next month. There’s a Live Nation “Wild ‘N Out” arena tour too, plus themed sports bars in San Diego and Miami that he owns.

Mage, Kentucky Derby winner, is son of Good Magic. Here's more to know about his pedigree

 

Mage, who won the 2023 Kentucky Derby on Saturday evening, is the son of Good Magic, a sire who won multiple graded stakes races, and Puca, his dam by Big Brown.

 

Mage was foaled April 18, 2020. He was bred by Grandview Equine. Mage was sold twice at auction: New Team bought him for $235,000 at the Keeneland Association September Yearling Sale in 2021, and then he was acquired by Ogma Investments for $290,000 at the Fasing-Tipton Midlantic Two-Year-Olds in Training Sale in May 2022.

 

2023 Kentucky Derby winner:Mage, who had 16-1 odds, pulls ahead to win the 2023 Kentucky Derby at Churchill Downs

 

Mage won the Derby at 15-1 odds.

 

Good Magic, his sire, won three graded stakes races, including a pair of Grade 1 events: the Breeders' Cup Juvenile (at Del Mar Thoroughbred Club) in November 2017 and the Haskell Invitational Stakes (at Monmouth Park) in July 2018. He also won the Grade 2 Blue Grass Stakes at Keeneland in April 2018. Good Magic placed second in the 2018 Kentucky Derby (to eventual Triple Crown winner Justify) and fourth in that year’s Preakness Stakes. He owned a winning percentage of33(3 for 9)and a win-place-show rate of 78 (7 of 9). Good Magic only ended outside the top four once ― his final career race, the 2018 Travers Stakes at Saratoga Race Course, where he placed ninth.

 

Puca, Mage’s dam, did not win a graded stakes event during her racing career. But she did notch four victories for a winning percentage of 24 (4 for 17). Puca had a win-place-show rate of 41% (7 of 17). Her best finish in a graded stakes race was second at the 2015 Gazelle Stakes at Aqueduct Racetrack.

 

Saturday's win was the first in the Derby for all of Mage’s connections: owners OGMA Investments LLC, Ramiro Restrepo, Sterling Racing LLC and CMNWLTH (all making their Derby debut) and trainer Gustavo Delgado (his third attempt at the Run for the Roses, with his previous best showing a 13th place by Bodexpress in 2019).

 

It was a long-awaited Derby victory for Mage’s jockey, Javier Castellano. Saturday marked his 16th appearance in the Derby. Prior to Saturday, his best effort was third (Audible, 2018).

 

Mage boasts a deep bloodline.

 

His grandsire (on Good Magic’s side) is Curlin, a Hall of Fame thoroughbred that won the Preakness Stakes and Breeders' Cup Classic in 2007 and was a two-time American Horse of the Year winner (2007 and 2008).

 

Mage's grandsire (on Puca’s side) is Big Brown, which won the Kentucky Derby and Preakness in 2008. (He failed to finish the Belmont Stakes, as jockey Kent Desormeaux pulled on the reins in the homestretch.) It’s the only race, of the eight Big Brown competed in, that he didn’t finish first — a winning percentage of 88.

Mage’s other notable descendants include Hall of Fame thoroughbred Northern Dancer (winner of the Kentucky Derby and Preakness Stakes in 1964) and Danzig (the leading sire in North America three years running, 1991-93).

>This is why Mage won because not only did I understand their magic better than them I could invoke the Living God to intercede on our behalf. Define: The Role of a Tzadek.

 

If you were the living god, then you would already know, I have been here from the early days, and not assume otherwise just to make the claim that it was you, yourself, that countered them, in their game.
