The people who work here have no idea how agonizing these visits are for family!




 I felt like I could have burst with rage as I left my Mom's nursing home today.  Fire hot tears poured out of my eyes as I struggled to see the check out pad.  The workers in these nursing home jails have no empathy.  The warden that was watching me from an office across the hall yelled to me from behind her desk when I had 4 minutes left with my Mom.

  She yelled from across the hall, " you only have a few minutes left." I truly did not trust myself to open my mouth to respond.  So I held it in.  I told my Mom I loved her and would be back soon.  I grabbed my purse and gloves and walked out.  As I struggled to see the check out pad I felt myself crack open and my pain burst out.  I said to whoever was at the main desk, "you know the people who work here have no idea how agonizing these visits are for family!  



The woman down there did not have to yell across the hall from her desk like some jail warden that I had 4 minutes left on my visit!  I have a fucking cell phone and there is a fucking clock on the wall!  It is disgustingly agonizing that you have full contact with my Mom and I don't!  You really need to train your staff to understand what we are going through!". And I walked out!

The U.S. Supreme Court declined on Wednesday to take up a challenge to North Carolina's decision to allow absentee ballots to be received and counted as late as (9) nine days after voters head to the polls on Nov. 3.

In the Pennsylvania case, the court refused a plea from Republicans in the state that it decide before Election Day whether election officials can continue receiving absentee ballots for three days after Nov. 3.

More than 71 million total ballots cast as of Wednesday morning suggested a record turnout for this year's race compared to the 47.2 million early votes cast in the 2016 election, according to data from the United States Elections Project.

US Military casualties in the war in Afghanistan



Why won’t the press report this? US Military casualties in the war in Afghanistan:


Bush: 630
Obama: 1758
Trump: 63

One more US casualty in this war is one too many. Thank you @realDonaldTrump for winding this war down.

End #endlesswars

#earlyvote morning update 10/22

At least 45 million people have voted in the 2020 general election 

Total Early Votes:   50,312,171 

Mail Ballots:             35,079,446 

In-Person Votes:     15,232,725

That number of early ballots cast so far represents 37.1% of the total national voter turnout in 2016.

First, it’s not like no one voted early in 2016. That was a record year for early voting, with about 40% of all votes cast early. 


We’re at 20% of the 2016 total vote as I write this," he wrote. "The ratio of 2020 early vote to 2016 early vote is going to come down simple because it is impossible that early voting is going to be six times what it was in 2016."

As more than 97,000 of the nation’s long-term care residents have died in a pandemic that has pushed staffs to the limit






As more than 97,000 of the nation’s long-term care residents have died in a pandemic that has pushed staffs to the limit, advocates for the elderly say a tandem wave of death separate from the virus has quietly claimed tens of thousands more, often because overburdened workers haven’t been able to give them the care they need.






The Department of Justice is expanding its inquiry on #nursinghome deaths in NY. 



Now, they are looking for the numbers from private facilities being hidden by the Cuomo administration.






https://apnews.com/article/virus-outbreak-new-york-andrew-cuomo-elections-nursing-homes-5212e305921c250eb6cba4f6f246fc4d



https://www.justice.gov/crt/civil-rights-institutionalized-persons


According to a registry maintained by the state Health Department, only 30 of New York’s 622 nursing homes fit that description – a mix of facilities owned by the state, New York City and various counties. They represent 7 percent of the state’s bed capacity.

Although spread around the state, they are not a representative cross-section. Fewer than half are located in the greater New York City region, where the pandemic was overwhelmingly concentrated, and none is in the Bronx, which was the hardest-hit part of the state.

As shown in the table below, almost half of the public homes have lost residents to coronavirus, including 72 deaths reported at the Long Island State Veterans Home, which is part of the state’s Stony Brook University. As of this week, however, 16 of the 30 public homes had reported no COVID-19 deaths at all. Overall, the public homes accounted for 317 reported coronavirus deaths, which is 5 percent of the statewide toll in nursing homes.

To be clear, these figures are based on the state’s flawed counting methodology, which omits residents who died after being transferred to hospitals. This system has tallied just under 6,500 nursing home coronavirus deaths, but the true toll is likely to be thousands higher.


ANOTHER SEPARATE INVESTIGATION BY FIVE FEDERAL AGENCIES INTO TWO SISTER NURSING HOMES.


DOJ CIVIL RIGHTS DIVISION OPENED AN INQURY INTO FIVE STATES REGARDING THE NUMBER OF DEATHS INTO THE NURSING HOME.

New Rochelle’s mayor watched as the National Guard rolled into the commuter hub north of New York City, wearing camouflage that offered no disguise in suburbia. 



A week after a local lawyer had been diagnosed with coronavirus, a mile-wide containment zone was being drawn around the virus’s first known superspreader event on the US’s east coast. 




After a sleepless night, Mayor Noam Bramson called his city manager to spill out his worries. On March 10, he thought New Rochelle’s lockdown looked “dramatic”. But within days businesses and schools were shuttering, and a deadly quiet was descending across the US.

Five states could be hotbeds for militia groups to protest and carry out violent demonstrations leading up to Election Day, a new research study shows.

https://www.foxnews.com/politics/potentially-violent-militia-groups-could-be-rampant-leading-up-to-elections-in-these-five-states-report


These states -- Georgia, Michigan, Pennsylvania, Wisconsin and Oregon-- were deemed "high-risk locations" ahead of the elections because there have been massive anti-coronavirus lockdown protests in the past, and researchers also believe militias might have perceptions of "‘leftist coup’ activities," according to a new report by ACLED, a crisis-mapping project, and the research group MilitiaWatch. 


Battleground states and their peripheral towns can also be common areas that say an influx in election violence or unrest, according to the report. 


North Carolina

Texas

Virginia

California 

New Mexico were found to be at moderate risk for organized demonstrations involving militia both before and after the elections.  







POPE FRANCIS HAS ENDORSED SAME-SEX CIVIL UNIONS


SHOCK WAVES THROUGH THE CATHOLIC CHURCH AND THE WORLD



Pope Francis has endorsed same-sex civil unions, saying in a documentary that homosexual people are 'children of God' and that they 'have the right to be in a family'. 




https://www.nbcnews.com/news/religion/pope-calls-civil-unions-same-sex-couples-major-departure-vatican-n1244137?fbclid=IwAR0BYa1NAtNES3mkN9oWd5GfyHtUH7jwYXmav56kCOjilHhZN-GHCPTfZkk





https://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-8864193/Pope-Francis-endorses-sex-civil-unions-saying-Homosexuals-children-God.html?ITO=applenews


His approval came midway through a feature-length film, titled Francesco, which had its premiere at the Rome Film Festival earlier today.


The film delves into issues Francis cares about most, including the environment, poverty, migration, racial and income inequality, and the people most affected by discrimination.


'Homosexual people have the right to be in a family. They are children of God. Nobody should be thrown out or be made miserable over it,' the 83-year-old said in one of his sit-down interviews for the film. 


'What we have to have is a civil union law; that way they are legally covered.'

He added that he 'stood up for that' in an apparent reference to his time as archbishop of Buenos Aires when he opposed legislation to approve same sex marriages but supported some kind of legal protection for the rights of gay couples.


The Pope's remarks will come as a shock to millions of Roman Catholics who have long followed the doctrine that gay relationships are sinful and accepted the Church's stand against the worldwide advance of gay rights.

‘THE PERFEFT STROM’: Seniors in NYCHA Buildings with Poor Ventilation Slammed by COVID-19





NYCHA Bronx Senior Citizen BUILDING 

950 Union Avenue 

Bronx, NY 

In the 10 weeks between March and mid-May, 

  • at least 15 of the 232 elders living there became infected with the virus. 
  • (6) Six ultimately died of lab-confirmed COVID-19 in the single-building residence known as 950 Union Avenue 163rd Street, city Department of Health and Mental Hygiene data shows



With a major fan replacement project running behind and winter on the way, health experts warn of danger for more virus spread in public housing developments.


Last spring, as the coronavirus swept New York City, it hit hard at a nine-story seniors-only public housing development on Union Avenue in The Bronx.


Seniors in NYCHA Buildings with Poor Ventilation Slammed by COVID-19 - THE CITY


In the 10 weeks between March and mid-May, 

  • at least 15 of the 232 elders living there became infected with the virus. 
  • (6) Six ultimately died of lab-confirmed COVID-19 in the single-building residence known as 950 Union Avenue 163rd Street, city Department of Health and Mental Hygiene data shows.


  • Testing showed an infection rate of 6.4%. 
  • Overall, 2.9% of the city’s 8.1 million residents have tested positive for COVID-19 since the pandemic’s arrival in March, though estimates of the percentage of New Yorkers infected are much higher.


I WOULD LIKE TO KNOW THE ROLE NYC COUNCIL PLAYED ON NYCHA ONGOING ISSUES. 


All told, some 47 NYCHA developments — 22 of which are seniors only — recorded COVID-positive rates higher than 2.9% from March to mid-May. NYCHA oversees 302 developments across the city.


All but two of the 47 developments — including the Union Avenue senior residence— rely on old mechanical ventilation systems that NYCHA had promised to fix by last year. 


And all but two of NYCHA’s 41 seniors-only developments use the system.


Across the city, 

  • 240 NYCHA developments employ mechanical exhaust roof fans to circulate air out of apartments. 
  • The systems, which serve 260,000 residents, are prone to breakdown, and the ducts leading from apartments to the roof often are clogged with decades of dust and debris.


Meanwhile, NYCHA has prioritized a list of buildings — including Union Avenue — for immediate roof fan replacement. But the plan is now off track and far behind schedule.


______________________________

Meanwhile, NYCHA faces an astounding $38 billion repair bill for public housing — and City Hall’s own math shows it has come up with only $24 billion so far.




Take for example the Action Plan I approved on Nov. 6, 2019, for NYCHA to spend $450 million in state reimbursement funds for the replacement of 148 elevators and 108 boilers at 35 NYCHA developments. 


There is little sense in replacing a building’s elevators before making sure the building’s roof, facade and interior pipes are in good shape and not leaking water. 


That can only be done with timely and proper building inspections.

Prolonged leaks cause mold, and in nearly 300 cases between 2014 and 2016, verified mold growth covered more than 100 square feet at NYCHA. 


Even after it was removed from individual apartments, the mold returned at least 30% of the time.


 Innovation can help NYCHA address leaks and prevent mold.




THE UNSPOKEN PROBLEM ABOUT THE NYCHA REPORT FROM THE FEDERAL MONITOR 

By Pete Harrison (@PeteHarrisonNYC)   

On Monday, Bart Schwartz, the federal monitor appointed in February to oversee the New York City Housing Authority’s (NYCHA) lead remediation efforts published his first quarterly report. It was, predictably, rough going. 


The Unspoken Problem about the NYCHA Report from the Federal Monitor 


NYCHA is failing residents on many fronts. Most urgently, and the basis of the federal lawsuit, hundreds of children remain exposed to lead paint, including 18 reports of children with elevated blood levels from this year alone. 


Residents and workers across the portfolio of 176,000 homes are also exposed to dangerous levels of mold, pet infestation, waste management overflow, lack of heat and hot water, and structural building failures. 


The report outlines a depressing lack of organization within the authority. Poor internal communication, resident-focused communication, data collection, record keeping, project oversight, and poor communication with the monitor itself. 



This does the full story of NYCHA a terrible disservice. The reasons for NYCHA’s systemic failures are more complicated than media coverage allows. Not acknowledging them in full detail makes it impossible to think seriously about how to save NYCHA going forward. 



The complicated history and structure of NYCHA doesn’t help it, either. It is owned by the city, but gets about one-third of its budget funding from HUD (including Section 8 funding), and additional funding from the state. But HUD has cut more than a billion dollars to NYCHA since 2001. The state has slimmed its commitments too and didn’t add any money in this budget season. (The fact that New York Governor Andrew Cuomo was once HUD Secretary shouldn’t be lost on anyone.)


The federal and state cuts (plus cuts during the Bloomberg Administration) over so many years have compounded and resulted in a $32 billion capital budget shortfall. It’s remarkable that NYCHA is still standing at all.


The monitorship was a half measure that doesn’t change any of this. New York City didn’t want to lose control over NYCHA, partly because it would be deeply embarrassing for the de Blasio administration, but mostly because other HUD takeovers of public housing authorities have been disastrous, even without considering the ghoulishness of the current administration. 


The monitorship agreement maintains city control, but requires it to spend $2.2 billion over the next decade on reforms and repairs. However, it doesn’t require any new money from the state or the federal government, which calls into question how serious this monitorship is about actually solving the issues in NYCHA.


Some, including HUD regional head Lynne Patton, have argued that there is plenty of money that just needs to be managed better. Although it is true that there is some money around and that NYCHA has mismanaged much of it, it is patently false to say that it comes close to $32 billion.
