A Married Congressman Breaks His Vows For More Than 10 Years

Well, considering the fact that it was public knowledge because they used to hem up in public, I would say the only ones who did not know about the relationship were the media.

I wonder what other revelations of romantic trysts in public office shall be revealed by the absolutely brilliant investigative journalists of the Main Stream & Social Media.

Go forth and google as I await with baited breath, clutching my pearls, sipping on a cocktail, eating popcorn, for the heavens to fall.

Nevada congressman admits to affair with intern after podcast exposé




A married Nevada congressman has admitted having a longstanding affair with a former intern calling herself “Love Jones” — after she exposed him in an explosive series of podcasts.

Rep. Steven Horsford (D-Nev.) — who had previously been Nevada’s first African American state Senate majority leader — came forward after Gabriela Linder detailed the affair in a podcast, “Mistress for Congress.”

It started in 2009 when she was a 21-year-old intern at then-US Sen. Harry Reid’s Nevada office — and they only broke ties in April, the same month she started her podcast, she told the Las Vegas Review-Journal.

“It is true that I had a previous relationship outside of my marriage, over the course of several years,” Horsford told the paper.

“I’m deeply sorry to all of those who have been impacted by this very poor decision, most importantly my wife and family.

“Out of concern for my family during this challenging time, I ask that our privacy is respected,” he said.

The 47-year-old congressman calls himself a “devoted family man” in his online bio, and has been married since 2000, long before the affair started.

“Rep. Horsford has raised a strong family with his wife, Sonya Horsford, and their three children,” his bio states.

Linder hid behind the name “Love Jones” for her podcast and related social media until coming forward formally to the Vegas paper last week.

Linder said their sexual relationship continued intermittently for a decade until 2019, and they remained in contact until April. Linder never worked for Horsford in any capacity.

She told the Review-Journal that Horsford offered her financial support and ties to political connections — and even used his congressional staff to help film a segment for her young son’s YouTube show.

Linder — who is also planning a book — told the paper she decided to speak out as “an empowering journey,” ending the affair because she “deserved more.”

She says she had only kept quiet until now because she was “loyal to a fault.”

“He knew how in love with him I was, and he knew what he could do and get away with,” she told the Review-Journal. “He never told me to keep quiet. He didn’t have to.”

Despite insisting she does not have political motives in coming forward, she still claims he should not run for re-election now that his affair has been exposed.

“He obtained this position under false pretenses that he was a family man and man of God,” she told the paper. “He should take a step back, atone, and if people are satisfied, then he can come back into politics.”

However, an aide for Horsford insisted, “This was a private relationship of the congressman’s and this was in no way related to his public office.”

FinCEN: The Original Detroit GTO Model Of Corporate Shape Shifting Races For LLC Property Titles

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.


Title Source Has Been Anointed As A $706 Million Corporate Shape Shifter


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.

Karma.
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.

How States Get Rid Of Foster Care Lawsuits

State AGs hard at work
Just when you thought the schemes could not get any more unbelievable, here, we have yet another card up the sleeve of the state.


Whenever there is a class action on behalf of children in foster care, all a state must do to get it dismissed is to adopt out the kids who were listed to certify the class based animus.  Freakin' brilliant.  I got chills.


Bet this pisses off Children's Rights.


Foster care lawsuit to be dismissed

Updated: Thursday, 04 Nov 2010, 2:03 PM EDT
Published : Thursday, 04 Nov 2010, 2:01 PM EDT
PROVIDENCE, R.I. (AP) - The state of Rhode Island has asked a federal judge to dismiss a lawsuit alleging that the foster care system is broken.
The lawsuit from the state child advocate was reinstated by a federal appeals court earlier this year after being thrown out in 2009. The suit alleged that children in state custody are routinely abused, neglected and shuffled from home to home.
The state says in court papers this week that the court lacks jurisdiction to hear the case.
It also says the suit is moot since five of the 10 children named in the case have since been adopted.
State lawyers say the child advocate's office raised concerns about the treatment of the 10 children in the lawsuit, but never brought those to the attention of Family Court.


Here is another fun little story about another state scheme to magically make these foster care lawsuits disappear.  It's called "The State Which Screamed Qualified Immunity".


In this story, the state cries to the court that they could never, ever release any information through discovery because they would not want to violate the privacy of the children.  It would not be in the best interests of the children to release the records so the state asked for an order of protection, yet were denied. (see below).


Judge tosses out lawsuit involving abused and neglected children 


A federal judge on Wednesday threw out a class action civil rights lawsuit aimed at revamping Clark County's system for protecting abused and neglected children.

Actually, the case originated here.

In his 31-page decision, U.S. District Judge Robert C. Jones said the lawsuit filed by a national child advocacy group on behalf of 13 foster children failed to show why county and state officials should be held liable in federal court for problems in Southern Nevada's child welfare system.

Uh...because it is a federally funded program????  Well, it's no surprise that the feds do relatively little in the way of how a state operates its child welfare system.  See, out of the 74 U.S. Inspector Generals, there is only one who has subpoena powers and the is with the Department of Defense.  Therefore, the proper jurisdiction to address the failures of a state operation would be with the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services, Office of Inspector General.  Considering the lack of resources, moritoria on Medicaid rules and the newly elected wave of leadership supportive of even less regulation, the timing of the case made it optimal to dismiss at this juncture.  

In his decision, Jones ruled that the defendants had "qualified immunity" from most of the claims in the lawsuit. Under federal law, government officials have such immunity if their actions did not violate "clearly established" constitutional rights.

What are the terms I am looking for here... Due Process?  No.  Perhaps it was Equal Protection.  Nope.  Let's see, oh wait, I forgot.  Foster children have no constitutional rights because the state revoked the grants of custody.  The state is in possession of its rights and therefore qualify for immunity.  Breathtakingly brilliant.

The lawsuit alleged the officials did not provide adequate medical, dental and mental health care for foster children. Jones wrote that the state is required only to provide "basic human needs" to children under its care and that anything else beyond that was not a "clearly established" right.

Being non-compliant to federal funding agreements is not a constitutional right, it is a false claim and not within the scope of the claims brought forth.

So what exactly are "basic human needs"?  They are:
  1. Breathing: Air;
  2. Nutrition: Food;
  3. Homeostasis: Shelter.
This just about sums up foster care except for the fact that taxpayers drop on average $120,000.00 a year to keep a foster kid.


The lawsuit also alleged the county and state acted with "deliberate indifference" to obvious dangers when they placed children in dangerous foster homes.

That is just a crock of bologna.  What this is, is just another tactic to emotionally manipulate the court.  The deliberate indifference argument should have been raised in the lack of federal compliance of federal mandates.  This is not legalese: "I would argue "deliberate ignorance" because most of the States have no clue on how to be compliant to a system that was intentionally designed to administratively fail to reach its annual benchmarks from day one.

But under federal law, Jones ruled, officials cannot be held liable unless their actions created or increased the danger for the children, not merely exposed them to dangers that already existed.

Damn, I really can't argue with that.  Good call.  The child welfare system, particularly the foster care system was intentionally designed to be dysfunctional or perhaps more along the lines of disjointed.  Federal government is modeled the same fashion.  It is so complex that it is extremely difficult to navigate, therefore, one must muddle through which is time consuming and expensive.  Under this reasoning, very few embark on investigative journeys to increase efficiency and maximize benefits of foster care.  

There are only two sources "exposing...dangers that already existed" and they are Legally Kidnapped and the National Archive On Child Welfare Fraud.

Another issue raised was the county's failure to provide independent representatives for foster children, known as guardians ad litem, in every case.

But Jones ruled that the state law requiring a guardian ad litem in every case is in line with the federal law, though in practice they are not appointed in every case.

Jones wrote that he did not want to step in and enforce that provision, because it would interfere too much with the workings of a state court.

Where the F@*K is Catherine Cortez Masto?????  I know!  Sleeping in her Medicaid Fraud Control Unit.  (emphasis added).

Despite Jones' ruling, Coleman said she was not unhappy with the dismissal.
She said an appeal is likely and welcomed the chance to put the case before a new judge.

"In the end we will prevail because we have to," she said. "These kids need us."

Actually, "You need the kids."  The attorney fees are phenomenal!
