Deaf man sues Pornhub for disability discrimination claiming its videos don’t have subtitles

A deaf man is suing Pornhub for violating the American Disabilities Act (ADA) by not having subtitles on their x-rated videos.

Yaroslav Suris has filed a class-action lawsuit against the international porn site claiming its lack of subtitles is a denial of access, TMZ reports.

Suris shared that he had tried to watch titles that included ‘Hot Step Aunt Babysits Disobedient Nephew,’ ‘Sexy Cop Gets Witness to Talk’ and ‘Daddy 4K — Allison comes to Talk About Money to Her Boys’ Naughty Father,’ but couldn’t get through the dialogue in the flicks for lack of subtitles.

New Poll Shows Majority of Marylanders Oppose Tax Increases to Fund Education

Maryland’s Voters Firmly Believe They Are Taxed Too Much


ANNAPOLIS, MD – The House Minority Caucus today released polling data proving the majority of Marylanders oppose paying higher taxes to fund increases in education spending. The poll was conducted by Gonzales Research & Media Services from December 23, 2019 through January 4, 2020. The poll found that a whopping 94% of Maryland voters believe they pay enough or too much in taxes with 65% of responding that they and their families pay too much. When asked specifically if they are willing to pay higher taxes to fund increases in education spending, 52% of Marylanders say NO, with 55% of women rejecting higher taxes for education. Less than 2% of respondents were willing to pay the thousands in taxes each year that will be necessary to increase spending at proposed levels.

“These poll results confirm what we already believed to be true,” said House Minority Leader Nic Kipke. “Maryland families are not willing to absorb the massive tax increases that will be necessary to fund this surge in education spending.”

“Maryland families are still making payments on the last failed education plan,” said House Minority Whip Kathy Szeliga, referring to the spending increases required by the Thornton Commission, the last revamp of education funding that failed to achieve many positive outcomes. “It is no surprise that taxpayers are suspicious of another set of vague promises tied to massive spending amounts. It is their money that is being thrown at the problem, and they’ve seen this all before.”

Delegates Kipke and Szeliga are available for further comment. The polling results are available here.

Former US attorney says report on possible leak by James Comey is a ‘bombshell’

Former U.S. Attorney Brett Tolman on Friday said that the report on former FBI Director James Comey possibly illegally leaking secret information concerning a Russian document to The New York Times and The Washington Post “is a bombshell.”

“It connects some dots that have been frustrating to me,” Tolman told “Fox & Friends,” recalling that his suspicions were raised for him when Comey broke Justice Department protocol in 2016 to hold a news conference to announce the FBI would not recommend charges against then-presidential candidate Hillary Clinton over her private emails.

The new review, which the Times downplayed as a possibly politically motivated probe by the Trump administration, concerns a Russian intelligence document “claiming a tacit understanding between the Clinton campaign and the [Obama] Justice Department over the inquiry into whether she intentionally revealed classified information through her use of a private email server,” as the Post described it in May 2017.

Dutch intelligence accessed the document on Russian computers and provided it to the FBI. Included in the document was a discussion between Rep. Debbie Wasserman Schultz, D-Fla., then the chairwoman of the Democratic National Committee, and Leonard Benardo, who worked with the George Soros-funded group Open Society Foundations.

Schultz told Benardo in the document that then-Attorney General Loretta Lynch would ensure Clinton was not prosecuted in the email probe.

Cardi B floats bid for Congress: ‘I deadass have sooo much ideas’

Singer Cardi B, who last week said she wanted to leave the United States because President Trump is “putting American lives in danger,” now wants to be part of the U.S. government — even though she doesn’t agree with it.

“I think I want to be a politician,” tweeted the pop star. “I really love government even tho I don’t agree with Government.”

Cardi B, 27, said she was filing for a Nigerian passport the day after an airstrike killed Iranian Gen. Qassem Soleimani and Iraqi militia leader Abu Mahdi al Muhandis outside the Baghdad International Airport.

“I do feel like if I go back to school and focus up I can be part of Congress,” added Cardi B in a follow-up tweet. “I deadass have sooo much ideas that make sense.” The word “deadass” implies that Cardi B is serious about her ideas making sense.

Warren pledges to cancel most student loan debt without Congress

Presidential candidate Sen. Elizabeth Warren (D-Mass.) on Tuesday pledged to cancel student loan debt for 42 million Americans on the first day of her presidency by bypassing Congress and using an existing authority from the Department of Education.

Warren had already unveiled a plan to cancel up to $50,000 in loans for about 95 percent of student borrowers, but her plan, unveiled in a Medium post on Tuesday, details for the first time how she would accomplish it.

The presidential candidate said she would use the Higher Education Act, which gives the Department of Education authority “to modify, compromise, waive, or release student loans.”

“The Department of Education already has broad legal authority to cancel student debt, and we can’t afford to wait for Congress to act,” she added. “So I will start to use existing laws on day one of my presidency to implement my student loan debt cancellation plan that offers relief to 42 million Americans.”

A Message from Ocean City Mayor Meehan – Save Our Sunrise

Dear Ocean City Residents, Property Owners, Visitors & Friends,

Our 10 mile, beautifully maintained beach and three-mile historic Boardwalk often rank among the nation’s top beaches, offering families like yours the perfect place to relax and enjoy the naturally beautiful view of the Atlantic Ocean. Unfortunately, our natural viewshed is in danger of being lost forever.

As you may or may not know, two companies are planning to build offshore wind farms directly off of Delaware and Maryland beaches. An Italian company (U.S. Wind) plans to construct dozens of 853-foot-tall wind turbines, located on 46,595 acres (73 square miles) of Atlantic Ocean, as close as thirteen miles from our beloved beach.This project will forever change the natural beauty of our beach, not only for us but for future generations.

The Town of Ocean City while in support for clean energy in Maryland; has opposed the size and location of the wind turbines. In order to avoid the destruction of our natural view forever and the negative impact on our community, the Town of Ocean City is insisting these turbines be moved at least 33 miles from shore. This distance would allow the project to continue without having any impact on our natural horizon, our tourism, our home values, our economy and future generations. This can be done. In fact, the State of Virginia recently approved a project 27 miles off their coast.

A public hearing will be held on Saturday, January 18, 2020 at 12 p.m. at the Roland E. Powell Convention Center (4001 Coastal Highway, Ocean City, Maryland). As residents, property owners, visitors and protectors of the future of Ocean City, we need your voice of concern at the Public Service Commission.

We have said it before, and we will say it again…. We only have one chance to do this, so we need to do it right. Making sure these turbines are out of the viewshed of Ocean City is not only a benefit to our residents and property owners, but also to the 8 million people who visit our beach each year. Most importantly, it is our responsibility to protect the natural beauty of our beach so that our children, grandchildren and their grandchildren can enjoy the same pristine horizon that we enjoy every day in Ocean City.

Sincerely,

Mayor Rick Meehan

Town of Ocean City, Maryland

Teacher of the Year who skipped her White House award ceremony in 2019 kneels during anthem at NCAA game attended by Trump in support of Colin Kaepernick

Minnesota’s ‘Teacher of the Year’ took a knee during the national anthem at the College Football Playoff championship game in New Orleans on Monday night, right behind President Donald Trump and First Lady Melania.

Kelly Holstine, who won Minnesota’s 2019 ‘Teacher of the Year’ award, was honored at the big game at the Mercedes-Benz Superdome.

When it was time for the national anthem she took a knee in protest of the president and in solidarity with the communities she says are oppressed under the Trump administration.

A Viewer Writes: Fox News

Hello Joe, 


I’ve finally had enough of FOX News so called journalist and contributors like Chris Wallace, judge Napolitano and a few others from the constant negative leading statements they use when commenting about President Trump. I thought they got rid of that when they fired left winger Shep Smith. But it appears that now after FOX News was bought out they are slowly all doing what Smith did. Example: they continually let the democrats say that unless the Senate calls the witnesses that the house didn’t, then the trial would just be a cover up and so on. Correct me if I’m wrong here but wasn’t it the responsibility of the house to gather evidence to prove their case and then send it over to the Senate (And I had to explain this very carefully to FOX News) the Senate is the jury who is suppose to decide the case on the evidence presented by the house. But not a single FOX so called journalist is pushing back when the democrats constantly put this bull in front of them. I can see the reporting of this station slowly shifting left. If they keep this up they’ll soon be closely aligned with MSNBC and the other left wing stations. I had so much faith in FOX. Now , I’m not sure. Perhaps others should contact them an express their opinions. Just punch in, “Contact FOX News” and follow the prompts. It’s easy. They will also acknowledge receipt of your message.
