January 1, 2020
Page Six source claims she is being protected by powerful foreign interests. 'She is not in the US, she moves around. She is sometimes in the UK, but most often in other countries, such as Israel, where her powerful contacts have provided her with safe houses and protection,' the source said. Maxwell is being 'protected because of the information she has on the world's most powerful people,' the source said.

January 1, 2020
The end of the article by the Epoch Times was most interesting:
...Roberts publicly clashed with Trump in late 2018 after Trump called a judge who ruled against his policy barring asylum for certain immigrants an “Obama judge.” A number of lower courts have seen opinions issued against Trump policies overturned by higher courts, including the Supreme Court.
“We do not have Obama judges or Trump judges, Bush judges, or Clinton judges,” Roberts said in a statement.
“What we have is an extraordinary group of dedicated judges doing their level best to do equal right to those appearing before them. That independent judiciary is something we should all be thankful for.”
Trump issued a rebuttal, writing, “Sorry Chief Justice John Roberts, but you do indeed have ‘Obama judges,’ and they have a much different point of view than the people who are charged with the safety of our country.”
de Blasio’s New York: Former Rikers Inmates Using Taxpayer-Funded Debit Cards To Buy Liquor, Tobacco…
January 1, 2020
Today in "why Democrats simply should never be allowed to allocate government capital" news, it it being reported that former inmates at Riker's Island are now using their government-issued debit cards to buy booze and Juul pods. The news comes just days after we reported that inmates were receiving training on how to become Starbucks baristas for "job security" purposes once they are released.
[...]
Seeing the rampant success of this program, the city is also planning on setting up ex-inmates with Metrocards and burner phones upon their release. The move comes as a result of de Blasio's new bail reform law, which is supposed to incentivize inmates to show up for their court appearances. Other incentives being offered - we swear we are not making this up - are winter coats, Steve Madden shoes and Mets tickets...Canadian carbon taxes increase starting today…

No one is ready for California’s new consumer privacy law. Just like the GDPR, it’s not totally clear what it means to be compliant with the CCPA…
January 1, 2020
The California Consumer Privacy Act goes into effect January 1st, and it doesn’t look like anyone, even the state of California itself, is totally ready. Draft regulations for enforcing the law are still being finalized at the state level... The crux of the CCPA is this: if your company buys or sells data on at least 50,000 California residents each year, you have to disclose to those residents what you’re doing with the data, and, they can request you not sell it. Consumers can also request companies bound by the CCPA delete all their personal data. And as The Wall Street Journal reported, websites with third-party tracking are supposed to add a “Do Not Sell My Personal Information” button that if clicked, prohibits the site from sending data about the customer to any third parties, including advertisers...
