Because Black History Month was created as the feel good marketing propaganda tool to promulgate the industry of trafficking tiny humans, I have provided a quick tutorial on the history parental rights ~ the acquisition of goods.
I bet the Corporate Shape Shifters over there at Title Source/Amrock/Quicken Loans/Bedrock/Jack Entertainment whatever the TITLE INSURANCE COMPANY flavor of the week it is for Dan Gilbert is most certainly glad that Detroit was not identified in these new Geographic Targeting Orders (GTO), but, then again, Detroit was the original model.
GEOGRAPHIC TARGETING ORDER
The Director of the Financial Crimes Enforcement Network (“FinCEN”) hereby issues a
Geographic Targeting Order (“Order”) requiring TITLE INSURANCE COMPANY to collect
and report information about the persons involved in certain residential real estate transactions,
as further described in this Order.
Now, this is how you target populations.
Purchase Threshold Lowered to $300,000 and Virtual Currencies Included
WASHINGTON—The Financial Crimes Enforcement Network (FinCEN) today announced the issuance of revised Geographic Targeting Orders (GTOs) that require U.S. title insurance companies to identify the natural persons behind shell companies used in all-cash purchases of residential real estate. The purchase amount threshold, which previously varied by city, is now set at $300,000 for each covered metropolitan area. FinCEN is also requiring that covered purchases using virtual currencies be reported.
Previous GTOs provided valuable data on the purchase of residential real estate by persons implicated, or allegedly involved, in various illicit enterprises including foreign corruption, organized crime, fraud, narcotics trafficking, and other violations. Reissuing the GTOs will further assist in tracking illicit funds and other criminal or illicit activity, as well as inform FinCEN’s future regulatory efforts in this sector.
Today’s GTOs cover certain counties within the following major U.S. metropolitan areas: Boston; Chicago; Dallas-Fort Worth; Honolulu; Las Vegas; Los Angeles; Miami; New York City; San Antonio; San Diego; San Francisco; and Seattle.
FinCEN appreciates the continued assistance and cooperation of the title insurance companies and the American Land Title Association in protecting the real estate markets from abuse by illicit actors.
Any questions about the Orders should be directed to the FinCEN Resource Center at FRC@FinCEN.gov
Frequently asked questions regarding these GTOs are available here.
A doctor described as the resident physician to the twisted upstate
sex cult Nxivm has been charged by a state oversight board with
illegally conducting human experiments.
The action comes eight months after the state Health Department
refused to act on a complaint from a former cult member who alleged that
Dr. Brandon Porter, 44, forced her to watch disturbing rape and
dismemberment videos for a “fright study” he was conducting.
Jennifer Kobelt, the former member of the notorious cult whose
leaders are accused of brainwashing and blackmailing women into becoming
sex slaves, said in her August 2017 complaint that Porter may have
performed his “fright study” on as many as 100 people.
“He continued to film my reaction for at least 10 minutes as I just
sat there, dry heaving like I was going to puke and crying very hard,”
Kobelt, a Canadian actress, said in the complaint to the Health
Department, adding that Porter began showing her the violent images
without warning.
“He failed me, not only as a friend but as the medical practitioner I
had trusted on numerous occasions with my health while I was in New
York,” Kobelt said in the complaint.
In a Sept. 6, 2017, letter, the state Office of Professional Medical
Conduct told Kobelt it would not investigate Porter, adding that “the
issues you have described are not medical misconduct.”
But the OMPC has now accused Porter of moral unfitness, gross
negligence and gross incompetence among other charges. He is accused of
showing “human subjects an actual video of the horrific and brutal
murders and dismemberment of four women by machetes; and violent film
clips, including a male African American being viciously stomped by a
Nazi; a conscious male being forced to eat a portion of his own brain
matter; and a graphic gang rape.”
He is also charged with violating state law for improperly conducting
studies on obsessive compulsive disorder, Tourette’s syndrome and one
monitoring the brain waves of those who attended Nxivm programs.
The state also slapped him for not reporting to health officials that
many of the attendees, including children, at a 2016 Nxivm event became
ill with an infectious illness that produced flu-like symptoms,
vomiting and diarrhea.
A hearing on the charges is scheduled for June 27. If the charges are
substantiated, Porter could have his medical license revoked or
suspended.
Porter, an internist, resigned from St. Peter’s Hospital in Albany
last fall and reportedly fled town. He received his medical degree from
the University of Iowa and got his New York medical license in 2009.
The state Health Department would not comment on the OPMC’s action
and Kobelt declined to comment. Porter did not return a request for
comment.
Although I respect the investigative staff of the this GAO report on another segment of the child welfare system, I must also respectively point out that the report is flawed for the following reasons:
It does not say a word about Child Protective Services, which was specifically designed to for discipline disparities for black students, boys, and student with disabilities;
There is no mention of what is considered as "Black" or "More than two races" are, meaning, data collection is extremely biased as it did not properly apply the "one-drop rule" when it comes to federal funding of programs specifically designed to target these populations.
There was no mention for data inclusion for children in Foster Care programs or the fact that these foster youth in many situations have no educational records.
There is no mention of the data obstacle that Foster Care information is considered a "privacy" issue and many of the cases are sealed in State courts.
The report lightly glosses over the concept of poverty and the impact in cognitive and developmental challenges due to things like environmental or sardonic policies slashing educational services for youth
There is no stratified geographic data to further analyze, what I am just going to say, issues with these NGO programs training educators to function in such a disparaging capacity.
There is no mention of States asset forfeiture social welfare programs where language is being transformed to include the terms "youth, aged, mental health, poverty" which are being lumped into the term "disabled".
This is what is called "Targeted Populations" of Medicaid Fraud in Child Welfare.
The report omits anything regarding the trafficking of tiny humans.
The pdf of the report https://www.gao.gov/assets/700/690828.pdf is locked, and tagged as "assets", which leads me to believe there is fraud and someone other than the children are going to benefit from the outcomes of this report in some private contracts and campaign finance.
WASHINGTON – Today, Congressman Bobby Scott (VA-03), ranking member of the House Committee on Education and the Workforce and Congressman Jerrold Nadler (NY-10), ranking member of the House Committee on the Judiciary released a Government Accountability Office (GAO) report entitled, “Discipline Disparities for Black Students, Boys, and Students with Disabilities.” The ranking members requested that the GAO investigate disparities in discipline policies and practices applied to students of color, boys, and students with disabilities.
“The Government Accountability Office has conducted first-of-its-kind analysis of national data which dispels claims that racially disproportionate rates of discipline are based solely on income. The analysis shows that students of color suffer harsher discipline for lesser offenses than their white peers and that racial bias is a driver of discipline disparities,” said Ranking Member Bobby Scott (VA-03). “This report underscores the need to combat these gross disparities by strengthening, not rescinding, the 2014 Discipline Guidance Package, which recommends specific strategies to reduce the disparities without jeopardizing school safety.”
Black students, boys, and students with disabilities are disproportionately disciplined in K-12 public schools. This pattern of disproportionate discipline persists regardless of the type of disciplinary action, level of school poverty, or type of public school students attend.
“After an extensive analysis by the Government Accountability Office, there can be no ignoring the facts of racial biases – facts that the Trump Administration must face head-on and cannot refute,” said Ranking Member Jerrold Nadler (NY-10) of the House Judiciary Committee. “The GAO report shows that race plays a significant role in discipline disparities, with students of color suffering harsher punishment in school compared with their peers. To suggest otherwise would require ignoring the major factor in these disparities, and ignorance of the facts can be no excuse for failing these students. Ignoring the impact of race on school discipline would be unconscionable and fail to address a critical issue impacting school performance by students of color. I thank Ranking Member Scott for his dedication to this important issue, and hope the Administration will finally come to grips with the realities faced by students of color. Secretary DeVos and the Department of Education must ensure that the necessary resources and guidelines are in place to address these disturbing racial disparities in our schools, and I hope this report will provide the necessary urgency for quick action on this matter.”
In 2014, the Department of Education and the Department of Justice issued a School Discipline Guidance Package, to remind schools of their legal obligations to administer school discipline without discriminating on the base of race, color, or national origin. Based on the empirical evidence provided in this GAO report, it is critically important the guidance be strengthened, and not rescinded, as some have suggested.If the Department moves to turn a blind eye to the evidence-based research in this report, it will rob our nation’s students of full civil rights protections and informed decision-making.
Boy, oh boy! I cannot wait until they come out with the third addition on research of the research of the research. Someone got paid. Just look into the footnotes. Always look at the footnotes.
To finally bring my point home that these reports suck, Michigan does the same thing on this issue, appropriating money to study and report the same thing about these children, and nothing gets done, except people make money to fund campaigns to make sure they will get a private contract to do more research.
To begin, I extend my humblest gratitude for the extensive work of the staffers of the U.S. Senate Finance Committee in embracing the magnitude of the pervasive issues surrounding the profit component in the privatization in foster care.
I am deeply moved that this Committee came to an agreement to allow this exhaustive, well, somewhat exhaustive, study to be executed.
Now, for my 2 cents.
Of course, the study just had to be diplomatic, but that is expected.
I do not have to be professional as I am an original source.
Even though there was no mention of fraud, the venue is the U.S. Senate Finance Committee, which is proper, but, where is the Medicaid fraud?
I know this is only a start, so we are going to be working together for a very long time because there were 18 very naughty States which did not respond to the Committee's inquiries.
"Not all of the States responded to inquiries from the Committee.
» Seventeen States failed to respond to the 50-State Letter.
Those States were:
Arizona,
Florida,
Georgia,
Idaho,
Louisiana,
Maine,
Michigan,
Mississippi,
Missouri,
Montana,
Nevada,
North Carolina,
Ohio,
Rhode Island,
South Carolina,
Vermont, and
Virginia.
» Massachusetts failed to respond to the 5-State In-Depth
Letter. Despite repeated assurances from the Massachusetts
Department of Children and Family Services that
‘‘continuing efforts are being made to collect and prepare
the information’’ with ‘‘the full intention to send a
response to the Committee,’’ a response to the Committee’s
questions was never received."
Why did this States not respond to the inquiry of privatization in foster care?
Fraud.
Michigan was the first state to privatize.
Now, that the ball is in my court, I shall be publishing my book, the first in a series, quite soon.
Oh, this is going to be so much fun to take these people out because they fund political campaigns and invest in many other ventures besides property.
The 20th century was the century of oil. From farm to fork, factory to freeway, there is no aspect of our modern life that has not been shaped by the oil industry. But as the "post-carbon" era of the 21st century comes into view, there are those who see this as the end of the oiligarchy. They couldn't be more wrong. This is the remarkable true story of the world that Big Oil is creating, and how they plan to bring it about.
Criminal Justice Reform - Making America Accountable for Black Lives
Recent events demonstrate that racial profiling remains a divisive issue that strikes at the very foundation of our democracy.
The issues of race and reasonable suspicion of criminal conduct are so closely linked in law enforcement practices that profiling has an impact on virtually every area of criminal justice policy.
From the prison pipeline to clemency and over-criminalization, race has a continuing impact on policy development in the criminal justice system.
This panel features experts from the judiciary, law enforcement, and the advocacy community to provide an overview of the continuing challenges in juvenile justice, drug and sentencing policy reform efforts.
SSA’s representative payee program, which provides financial management for Social Security beneficiaries who are incapable of handling their payments, requires close monitoring and oversight, according to Congressional leaders.
Congress is particularly concerned with the health and well-being of Social Security beneficiaries in need of payees to manage their benefits.
The House Ways and Means Subcommittees on Social Security and Oversight recently held two joint hearings on the payee program, discussing program issues with SSA, the OIG, and special-interest groups.
The hearings reviewed how SSA determines if a beneficiary needs a payee, and how SSA selects payees and monitors payee performance.
Acting Inspector General Gale Stallworth Stone testified at both hearings in February and March.
At the March hearing, Stone noted that about 6 million payees serve 8 million Social Security beneficiaries.
While the vast majority of those payees properly manage beneficiary funds, the threat of payee misuse remains, she said.
“SSA has many service responsibilities, but it must prioritize careful administration and monitoring of the payee program,” Stone said.
FLORIDA PAYEE MISUSED $1 MILLION IN BENEFITS
Just last week, a judge sentenced a Florida woman to 33 months in prison for misusing more than $1 million in Social Security and Medicaid benefits intended for residents of assisted-living facilities the woman operated.
According to reports, the woman opened a facility near Tampa, Florida in 2008 for the elderly and mentally ill.
Many of the facility’s residents received Social Security and Medicaid, so the woman served as their payee and pledged to receive and manage the government benefits on her residents’ behalf.
However, a Florida health care agency closed the facility in 2011 after the agency determined the woman did not provide the residents a safe and sanitary living environment.
The agency found the facility’s residents were confused and hungry, while bedbugs and roaches infested the residence.
The woman settled with the State of Florida in October 2011 and agreed to not own or operate an assisted-living facility for five years.
NEW FACILITY NAME, SAME POOR CONDITIONS
However, not long after the woman settled with the state, she reportedly changed the facility’s name and applied for a license to operate using another person’s identity.
She reopened, and she again housed beneficiaries who were mostly mentally ill adults.
Unfortunately, she again did not provide the residents a safe and healthy living situation.
By April 2013, the State of Florida shut down the woman’s operation a second time; the state found residents did not have necessary food and medication, the facility did not have a heating/cooling system, and rodents and trash filled the residence.
The Health and Human Services OIG contacted us in 2015 to assist in an investigation of the woman.
The investigation determined that, during her time operating the facilities, she misused government benefits intended for the care and housing of her residents.
She reportedly used the funds to make cash withdrawals and pay credit card bills, car payments, and rent.
Because of the investigation, she pled guilty in November 2016 before her recent sentencing.
PAYEE FRAUD A PRIORITY ISSUE
As the Acting Inspector General told Congress, we make every effort to seek prosecution against payees who misuse government funds and neglect their responsibilities to serve beneficiaries in need.
Last year, our investigative efforts led to 180 convictions related to payee fraud and about $10 million in monetary accomplishments, including restitution and SSA recoveries.
Oversight Subcommittee Chairman Vern Buchanan, a Florida Congressman, emphasized the critical need to monitor payees and to identify and reduce payee fraud.
“Vulnerable seniors who can no longer manage their own benefits should not become victims of fraud,” Buchanan said before the March hearing.
“We need to protect our loved ones.”

I mean, these child protection workers generate false claims to be submitted for federal cost reimbursements to Medicaid every single day when dealing with this targeted population.
Certainly not the States Medicaid Fraud Control Units!
Wait! Who the hell is going to generate policy, enforce and pay to enforce the opinion of the court that CPS does not have the right to lie?
ANSWER: No one because no one cares.
Just because human trafficking is a multi-billion dollar industry which is too big to fail does not mean it was never intentionally designed to segregate and target populations.
Gather up your amici curiae, just because I smell a SCOTUS challenge coming up.
Case accuses Texas foster care, adoption agency of bias against African-Americans
A federal civil rights suit in Houston accuses Child Protective Services of discriminating against African-American children, saying they are likelier to be separated from their parents and extended families than white children.
The suit was filed earlier this year by an Arizona woman who was denied custody of a young nephew, who instead was approved for adoption by a white foster family in Houston.
The suit brought a group of community activists Tuesday to the federal courthouse in Houston, where they decried generations of "robbed and stolen opportunities for kinship families" through what they contend is a pattern of discrimination by CPS.
The paternal aunt, Maravi Moore, was granted custody of one nephew, now 4, who was removed from his family. But CPS denied her custody of the boy's little brother, now 3, and instead facilitated his adoption to the foster family.
Neither Moore nor the boys were at the courthouse Tuesday, but the children's birth mother, Tisha Hunter, stood along the sidelines with a 2-year-old daughter watching. She said she had not been invited to the event.
But the emphasis was on the bigger picture - that black children living in poverty are over-represented in the child welfare system and are denied placements with other family members more frequently than other children in the system.
Minister Robert S. Muhammad, of the Muhammad Mosque No. 45, said the agencies are destroying black communities.
"The bellwether of what's going on in the black community is how our children are being traded in foster care for money," he said, apologizing for his strong language. "Modern-day slavery is going on down at the family courthouse. Just peel this onion back and you'll find ... this uneasy nexus with CPS, that is not the independent arbiter of where a child should be. You'll find that they're a lapdog and a rubber stamp for the family court judges."
Among the other groups that came together Tuesday to draw attention to the issue were A Second Chance, which focuses on kinship care; Black Administrators in Child Welfare; the National Association of Blacks in Social Work; and Black Lives Matter.
Pamela Williams, Moore's attorney in the federal suit, said she believes race influences decisions around the country, not just in the case involving her client.
"When the child's relatives stepped forward to actually bring the child home into the loving environment, she was refused and instead the child was given to a white family," she said. "You would never see CPS take a white child from a white family and place them with an unrelated black family when there was a suitable relative."
Studies confirm the numbers have been skewed toward greater separation of black families. A 2013 study by the state's own Center for the Elimination of Disproportionality and Disparities cites a 2013 finding that African-American children in Texas are twice as likely to be removed from their families and four times as likely to be placed in foster care than white and Hispanic children.
The lawsuit was filed against several state officials, including Hank Whitman of the Department of Family and Protective Services and Gov. Greg Abbott; Harris County and several Harris County employees; ad litem attorneys, who are named by judges to represent children; and service agencies.
It names one contract worker, who is accused of aiding in the adoption by way of "fabrications, defamations, concealment of evidence, delay and abandonment of the relative placement process" and wrongfully placing the child with a non-relative family seeking adoption.
State officials did not comment on the case other than to provide a copy of a motion filed in which the state asked the judge to dismiss Moore's case, saying she doesn't have a claim and the state is protected by immunity. Harris County officials referred requests for comment to the state.
Washington, D.C. – House Judiciary Committee Ranking Member John Conyers, Jr. (D-MI) released the following statement after the 4th Circuit Court of Appeals upheld a block on President Donald Trump's revised Muslim and refugee ban executive order:
Dean of the U.S. House
of Representatives
John Conyers, Jr.
“Today, yet another court has struck down Trump's un-American Muslim and refugee ban. Even in its so-called revised form, the courts have not closed their eyes to the undeniable truth--that the ban was intended to harm Muslims and thus is in conflict with the First Amendment's prohibition on the establishment of religion.
“The second travel ban executive order, like the first, undoubtedly targets Muslims and is unconstitutional. I’m pleased that the judicial branch has been steadfast in their commitment to upholding the constitution.”
In April 2017, Ranking Member Conyers helped lead 165 Democratic Members of Congress in filing a brief as amici curiae in the United States Court of Appeals for the Fourth Circuit in the case of International Refugee Assistance Project v. Trumpto highlight the unlawfulness of Trump’s second travel ban executive order.
In their amicus brief, the Members wrote, “…despite the Second Order’s self-serving claims to the contrary, it delivers on President Trump’s repeated promises as a candidate to limit the entry of Muslims into the country. In so doing, it flies in the face of one of our most deeply rooted constitutional values: that the government must not favor (or disfavor) any particular religion. As the Constitution’s text and history make clear, the Religion Clauses—both Article VI’s prohibition on the use of religious tests, and the First Amendment’s promise of “free exercise of religion” and prohibition on “laws respecting an establishment of religion”—prohibit a religious test that singles out a religion for discriminatory treatment under our immigration laws. . . . The best way to protect the security of the nation and to uphold foundational American values is to respect the Constitution’s fundamental protections and the laws passed by Congress.”
This is due to the fact that any information about a child in foster care is private, for the best interests of the child, of course, which leaves one to question why the Vice President of Marketing for AlertSense, with a history of child trafficking, would even be affiliated with anything to do with missing and exploited children.
There is a collective of organizations which have been on the ground floor of human trafficking of children since the inception of the child welfare system.
These bold and brave leaders were the emblazoned powerhouses to crafting of the legislation, policies and setting up the funding networks to promote public awareness of for the need of foster care and adoption.
Next month a major initiative to help vulnerable children and their families will begin in San Diego under a partnership between three prominent organizations.
The collaboration between the Clinton Foundation’s Health Matters Initiative, San Diego County, and San Diego Foundation, will focus on the foster care and juvenile justice programs, particularly what sort of factors lead to the disparities that cause some populations disproportionately entangled in these systems.
The proper and legal term for the disparities that case some populations disproportionately entangled in the foster care and juvenile justice programs is "targeted populations".
The three-year effort is expected to help diagnose what the county does well to assist its most vulnerable children, where it needs improvement, and then recommend changes.
“We are really looking at diving deeply at what are some of the causes, elevating this issue, and elevating this topic,” said Gillian Sealy, the CEO of the Clinton Health Matters Initiative, a part of the Clinton Foundation.
Designing human databases, with no public oversight, is just one way of tracking humans, because, we all grow up to be adults, well, at least most of us.
While the campaign is still in early planning stages, some of the details about the collaboration, and the potential benefits to the parties and the people they serve, are starting to emerge.
“We’re looking and want to determine that the systems do everything they can so that those children who are living in the system are living the best quality of life possible, and we’re strengthening the families of youth engaged in the system,” said Kathlyn Mead, the president and CEO of the San Diego Foundation.
Next month the Clinton Health Matters Initiative will convene in San Diego with county officials, the San Diego Foundation to begin the process of analyzing the foster and juvenile justice systems, and will meet with public health organizations, community groups, and faith-based organizations, to discuss factors that impact the success of the foster care and juvenile justice systems.
The effort could help address some of the disparities that different communities face, Supervisor Greg Cox said. For one, it could identify reasons why a disproportionately high number of African Americans are in the foster care and juvenile probation systems, he said.
“I would hope that one of the deliverables we would find is a decrease in out-of-home placement of African Americans,” he said. “That’s pretty easy to measure. We’d see a decrease in percentage of African Americans in our juvenile court system, our juvenile diversion system, and improve the quality of life, and keep families together,” he said.
Last weekend Cox and Mead went to Arkansas to meet with the Clinton Foundation, including former President Bill Clinton and Sealy.
The process could result in San Diego implementing successful programs from other jurisdictions, the development of a report about what works well here that might work elsewhere. The overall goal is a reduction in disparities and an improvement of existing programs in San Diego.
Each and every time there is a pilot program of this type, nothing gets done, except for more fraudulent billing of Medicaid.
The work isn’t expected to cost taxpayers any additional money beyond what is already allocated for public health programs.
The work will not cost a penny to taxpayers, but the fraudulent billing will.
“The good news is that it doesn’t really cost us financially. Certainly staff time will be focused on it,” Cox said. County employees, he noted, already work to address disparities amongst residents. The San Diego Foundation is providing $900,000 to cover expenses with funding through private donors, Mead said.
As the May meeting approaches, the county and San Diego Foundation are scheduling meetings with child welfare groups, community leaders, and faith-based organizations to hear about their experiences serving children, Mead said.
The best part of this new Clinton Foundation Initiative is that it will not, absolutely not, never, ever, ever speak upon human trafficking, funded through fraudulent Medicaid billing, in foster care, adoption and juvenile justice. Why does the federal government continue to work with the Clinton Foundation Medicaid in child welfare fraudfeasors? Why?
Representing Detroit on and off the field. It was a pleasure to hear Anquan Boldin thoughts on how we can bridge the gap between minority communities and police; and reform the criminal justice system - as he testified on Capitol Hill. I hope his activism will encourage others to make their voice heard.
For the better part of two decades, the relationship between African-American communities and their police departments across the nation have hovered in a state of volatility, awaiting a single incident to combust. These tensions have grown as allegations of bias-based policing by law enforcement agents, sometimes supported by data collection efforts and video evidence, have increased in number and frequency.
While the current wave of national attention was triggered by the controversial shooting of Michael Brown in Ferguson, Missouri, on August 9, 2014, the sensibilities of the nation have also been shocked by other high-profile police-involved shootings of more than 30 unarmed African-American and Latino men. Overall more than 250 African-American men were killed in police incidents in 2016.
Against this backdrop, these same communities have been ground zero in the so-called War on Drugs. There is bipartisan agreement that our nation has a crisis of over-incarceration, with 2.2 million people imprisoned in this country. One of the main reasons for this catastrophic level of incarceration is the use of mandatory minimum sentencing, which often imposes sentences that are not appropriate for the facts and culpability of individual cases.
Once released, these people face the prison-after-prison, where they can experience both housing and employment discrimination due to their criminal records. These burden can be so great that over half are re-incarcerated within three years of their release. All of this disproportionately impacts African Americans and is a major factor impacting the quality of life in our families and communities.
The rise of activism triggered by the racial disparities in our criminal justice system has touched diverse parts of our communities. Harkening back to the civil rights era of the 1960's, people have taken to the streets to proclaim that black lives matter and to seek justice for those who have died.
Today we are joined by members of the National Football League. This is the second Hill visit by NFL players and we look forward to building further links with the NFL Players Association to raise awareness around our Justice Agenda. As we recognize the price that some of your colleagues are paying for their activism, we note that your appearance here is meaningful – and not without risk to your livelihood. Ultimately, I believe that your activism will inspire other to raise their voices for justice. Let no one make the mistake of believing that the search of for justice in America is anything less than an act of patriotism. * As soon as C-SPAN corrects the issues on my account, I will update with clips to his statement.
The U.S. Government Accountability Office has issued a report on racial disparities in child welfare, at the request of U.S. Representative John Conyers, Jr., and it was released on my birthday.
Slow, my beating heart.
The report begs the question, "Why are minority children treated differently?"
I answer this question in the most simplistic term for all to understand: MONEY
It works like this. Federal law and policy pays money for "the best interests of the child" but pays even more for the darker kids.
Civil Rights Data are skewed based upon child welfare reporting policies of SACWIS because everything at HHS ASPE in child welfare is run by the same folks who used to run child welfare, so there is no need to change anything.
God forbid that the U.S. Department of Education and the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services actually did something crazy like, share Civil Rights Data and coordinate because that would violate confidentiality laws in child welfare.
Then one must take into consideration each particular state and how that state executes its departmental civil rights data initiatives to even solicit data in child welfare. The report identifies its weaknesses in methodology of data reporting, as Civil Rights Data collection is a dataset which has only been in existence for the last 5 years, with the traditional 2 year federal lag.
Always remember that the States Medicaid Fraud Control Units do not touch Medicaid Fraud in Child Welfare.
Child welfare is an uber secret operation which can only be examined from the belly of the beast, and I am an original source.
If anyone wishes to witness the stages of privatization policies being implemented, just watch child welfare.
Religious Freedom Restoration Act was based on a child welfare case.
Social Impact Bonds are privatizing schools and monetizing child poverty with absolutely no oversight because you cannot audit God and child welfare information is exempted and excluded from external scrutiny by law.
This is the greatest birthday present a gal like me could ever possibly dream about!
