Re: Miscellaneous news items that don't warrant their own thread
I’ll actually defend Biden on that one, seeing as how David Pekoske, TSA Administrator, is a Trump holdover, and the practice pre-dates the Biden admin (not sure when it started).
There- no one can say I always blamed Biden..

https://www.thestate.com/news/local/cri ... 76348.htmlHampton lawyer Alex Murdaugh plans to turn himself in to law enforcement on Thursday after police obtained an arrest warrant to charge him with conspiracy to commit insurance fraud, his lawyer said.
https://www.thestate.com/news/local/cri ... 70083.html
Gloria Satterfield, 57, of Hampton County was a maid and nanny in the Murdaugh household for about 20 years until she died in a local hospital after falling in the Murdaughs’ home and sustaining an injury. Her obituary says she loved Alex and Maggie Murdaugh as family.
“On the death certificate the manner of death was ruled ‘Natural,’ which is inconsistent with injuries sustained in a trip and fall incident,” the coroner wrote. “In light of the inconsistencies noted above, I feel that it is prudent to pursue an investigation into Gloria Satterfield’s death.”
Satterfield’s sons’ lawsuit against Alex Murdaugh asks for a half-million dollars to settle a wrongful death claim in their mother’s death.
The lawsuit claims Murdaugh took responsibility for Satterfield’s death and told them he would “sue himself” to provide the family with financial compensation, according to the lawsuit. Murdaugh also provided them an attorney with close personal ties to his family.
https://www.cnn.com/2022/01/21/us/alex- ... index.htmlA South Carolina grand jury has returned four new indictments against suspended attorney Alex Murdaugh, charging him with 23 more crimes, the state attorney general said Friday.
The charges include 19 counts of breach of trust with fraudulent intent and four counts of computer crimes.

Re: Miscellaneous news items that don't warrant their own thread
Interesting case here of workers rights to leave their current job for a better one. Obviously, the patient care component is part of it.
https://www.postcrescent.com/story/news ... 607417001/What to know about the battle over Fox Valley health care workers now playing out in court
APPLETON - It was unclear whether a group of former ThedaCare employees would be allowed to start their new jobs at Ascension Northeast Wisconsin Monday after lawyers for both health systems made their first appearance in court Friday morning.
The uncertainty is the latest development in a battle over health care employees that began late Thursday and is now playing out in court. It comes as staff shortages strain health systems nationwide — nearly one in five health care workers have quit their jobs since the beginning of the COVID-19 pandemic.
ThedaCare requested Thursday that an Outagamie County judge temporarily block seven of its employees who had applied for and accepted jobs at Ascension from beginning work there on Monday until the health system could find replacements for them.
The employees were part of an 11-member interventional radiology and cardiovascular team, which can perform procedures to stop bleeding in targeted areas during a traumatic injury or restore blood flow to the brain in the case of a stroke. Each of them were employed at-will, meaning they were not under an obligation to stay at ThedaCare for a certain amount of time.
Outagamie County Circuit Court Judge Mark McGinnis granted ThedaCare's request and held an initial hearing Friday morning. The case will get a longer hearing at 10 a.m. Monday.

Sounds like ThedaCare was just a bad employer.OUTAGAMIE COUNTY, Wis. (WBAY) - An Outagamie County judge has lifted an injunction, freeing seven members of ThedaCare’s accredited stroke care team to take jobs with Ascension Wisconsin.
Judge Mark McGinnis said, “Based up on the testimony, the exhibits that have come in that ThedaCare has not satisfied its burden that it will likely suffer irreputable harm without an injunction.”
They told the judge changing jobs was not just about money but a better quality of life, not being on-call as often working at St. Elizabeth, and feeling appreciated for their work.
“It was in my opinion life changing money for my family in offering a work-life balance that created more time with my children and husband,” said Kailey Young, a former ThedaCare employee.
Young, a former ThedaCare employee, said, ”It’s hard to even collect my thoughts in this moment because this is where, it’s flooding me with emotion, rather than being able to think straight. So, the respect that we have not received until this day, hearing how magical what we do is, but nobody cared about that when we went and asked for a counteroffer to stay. It’s just a lot.”
“We were cordial, and we were trying to work with them and help provide coverage, but when this lawsuit came through that they would rather have us be unemployed and jobless than work for a competitor my willingness to help them out died,” former ThedaCare employee Michael Preissner said.

I have a sneaking suspicion that Kalm is a "debater" type personality according to Myers Briggs. I'm that type.

Re: Miscellaneous news items that don't warrant their own thread
We basically have an open door policy for immigration.
https://hotair.com/karen-townsend/2022/ ... le-n443976A Fox News reporter showed some exclusive footage of something you won’t see on other networks. The video shows a mass release of single adult migrants in Brownsville. They arrived on buses contracted by the federal government and taken inside a small, unmarked office in a parking lot, according to reporter Bill Melugin. There was a makeshift black tarp with a sign that read “Border Patrol drop-off”. No cameras are allowed inside that building.
Melugin has been reporting on the Biden border crisis from its beginning. He and a few other FNC reporters are the only voices letting Americans know what is happening on the southern border. The rest of the networks are happy to provide cover for the Biden administration’s utter failure to keep the border secure. They simply don’t report on it unless it becomes so overwhelmingly in-your-face like when the huge wave of Haitian migrants crossed over into Del Rio. Even with that story, though, the media was only interested in manufacturing a story of abuse to the illegal migrants at the hands of the agents on horse patrol.
Single adult migrants are supposed to be immediately expelled via Title 42. The Biden administration claims that is what is happening at the border, much to the dismay of progressives and other open border advocates. However, though the Biden administration is keeping Title 42 in force, it does not include families or unaccompanied children for expulsion. There were no children or families in this group. These adults, mostly males, stepped off buses and out of vans in Brownsville. They left the office and got into taxis. Melugin and his cameraman followed the illegal migrants. They went to Harlingen airport. From there the migrant adults planned to board flights to Atlanta, Houston, and Miami. Some of the migrants said that they had just arrived in Texas that morning, after paying $2,000 to a cartel.

ThedaCare management definitely are not the brightest bulbs. How could they think this was going to end well for them? Now they've not only lost the employees but they've pissed them off too and likely won't get any help from them.

https://www.verywellmind.com/the-entp-p ... cs-2795982One common myth about ENTPs is that they love to argue simply for the sake of arguing. While people with this personality type are often willing to play the devil's advocate at times, they enjoy debates as a way of exploring a topic, learning what other people believe, and helping others see the other side of the story.
