“These workers are part of a new economy of exploitation: Migrant children, who have been coming into the United States without their parents in record numbers, are ending up in some of the most punishing jobs in the country, a New York Times investigation found. This shadow work force extends across industries in every state, flouting child labor laws that have been in place for nearly a century. Twelve-year-old roofers in Florida and Tennessee. Underage slaughterhouse workers in Delaware, Mississippi, and North Carolina. Children sawing planks of wood on overnight shifts in South Dakota.” Hannah Dreier, The New York Times [I added bold face for emphasis.] Hannah Dreier is an American journalist and reporter for The New York Times. She specializes in narrative features and investigations and has won a Pulitzer Price for Feature Writing. Born in San Francisco, CA, she attended Urban School of San Francisco and Wesleyan University. She speaks Spanish. On Twitter she said, “The US is seeing an unprecedented wave of migrant child labor right now. Thousands of kids are working overnight in dangerous factories for brands like Cheerios, Fruit of the Loom, and Ford. They’re here alone and they’re being failed in the most basic way.” My note: Since 1960 The New York Times has endorsed the Democratic Party nominee in every presidential election.

From Sacramento Police Department’s Media and Communications Specialist Amber Heinlein
SCAM ALERT We have recently learned our community has been receiving phone calls with the callers specifically claiming to be Sacramento Police Department and asking for a call back to the following number, 916-245-7154. Please do not call this number back, it is a scam. As a reminder, SPD will never demand money, gift cards, or personal information over the phone such as passwords, account numbers, or your social security number. As always if it seems to be unusual hang up and report it to your local law enforcement agency (Sacramento City residents can call 916-808-5471). “According to CBS Sacramento, Shakir Khan, a member of the Lodi City Council, was arrested last week after already facing additional criminal charges, according to The Conservative Brief.”
… “Khan has been charged with multiple offenses related to voter fraud, including causing, procuring, or allowing false voter registration of himself or another person, submitting fraudulent voter registration to the Secretary of State, submitting a fraudulent candidacy petition, aiding and abetting fraud in any election, subscribing fictitious names to nomination petitions, making a false nomination or declaration of candidacy, fraudulently casting votes, and procuring, assisting, counseling, or advising another person who is not qualified to vote.” https://www.patriotnewsalerts.com/california-democrat-arrested-on-election-fraud-charges/ All persons are innocent until proven guilty. The Atlanta Police Department released the names of six suspects who were apprehended during the riot in the city on Saturday evening of January 21, 2023: Nadja Geier, 24, from Nashville, Tennessee; Madeleine Feola, 22, from Spokane, Washington; Ivan Ferguson, 23, from Henderson, Nevada; Graham Evatt, 20, from Decatur, Georgia; Francis Carrol, 22, from Kennebunkport, Maine; and Emily Murphy, 37, from Grosse Isle, Michigan.
