Comment on the Show by Sending Mark a Text Message.This was case I tried to a jury verdict after six years of litigation. Ursula Milde was my client and she represented the grit and determination to do the right thing even if it meant risking her job.  The whole case stemed from her need to liven up the lives of senior citizens in the assisted living center she ran by hiring a recreation coordinator. The senior citizens spent their whole days watching TV and had little interactive activities to do.  During closing argument, I held up a dollar bill in front of the jury and said that is what it cost per day to hire a recreation coordinator.  The jury was convinced and decided against the employer for violating Ms. Milde's freedom of speech rights.  The defendant housing authority was a quasi public private company, hence the freedom of speech issue.  This was a 2006 jury verdict yet the law is still the same today.  This episode is part of my initiative to provide access to important court decisions  impacting employees in an easy to understand conversational format using AI.  The speakers in the episode are AI generated and frankly sound great to listen to.  Enjoy!Prepare to dive deep into the complex world of workplace rights and free speech in this riveting episode! We follow the story of Ursula Milde, who bravely advocated for essential recreational services for seniors despite facing pushback from her employer. This episode examines her journey, the conflicts with her boss, Benjamin Little, and how her public statements led to a landmark legal battle concerning employee rights.Expect to uncover the intricacies of communication in the workplace, the fine line between employee rights and authority, and the challenges of navigating disputes in a professional setting. The discussion extends to the implications of a pivotal Supreme Court case, Garcetti v. Ceballos, which reshaped what it means to express oneself at work, and how it applies to Milde's scenario.As we analyze the legal considerations and social ramifications of Milde's case, we invite you to reflect on your own workplace experiences and the delicate balance between speaking up and obeying authority. This episode will leave you questioning what you would do in Milde's shoes and whether or not you would stand up for your beliefs, even in the face of significant risk.

Episode Notes Ennismore co-CEO and founder Sharan Pasricha believes India is a sleeping giant in the lifestyle hotel sector, writes Middle East Reporter Josh Corder.   Pasricha told Senior Hospitality Editor Sean O'Neill at the Skift India Summit on Wednesday that the new wave of lifestyle hotels could be in India. Ennismore currently doesn't have any hotels in India in its portfolio. But Pasricha said that could change as soon as this year, citing India's growing middle class and infrastructure improvements as reasons why lifestyle hotels could thrive in the country. Next, Eric Garcetti, U.S. Ambassador to India, is eager to see U.S. travel demand for India increase, writes Travel Technology Reporter Justin Dawes. Garcetti told Skift CEO and founder Rafat Ali at the Skift India Summit that Americans don't know India as well as Indians know the U.S. Garcetti said a lot of work needs to be done to promote India as a tourism destination. But he noted India's tourism infrastructure has gotten a boost from the growth of the country's aviation industry.  Garcetti also addressed the lengthy waits many Indian travelers have endured to obtain U.S. visitor visas. Although the U.S. government has been able to reduce average wait times, he said there's work to do as travel demand to the U.S. increases.  We end today with a look at Keshav Suri, a hotel owner looking to increase support for India's LGBTQ+ community.  Suri, the executive director of the LaLiT Suri Hospitality Group, told Senior Hospitality Editor O'Neill at the Skift India Summit that his company has a loyal customer base among the LGBTQ+ community. He added that being supportive of the community is a competitive advantage. Suri, whose company operates roughly a dozen hotels across India, added that he would like to see more research done on the LGBTQ+ market.

On today's Breitbart News Daily podcast, we begin with a political rundown, starting with polls and clips from the Charlie Crist/Gov. Ron DeSantis gubernatorial debate in Florida. Plus, Joe Biden is lost once again, both figuratively and literally. He seemed to lose his train of thought a number of times in recent days and was seen wondering around the White House garden, but it's when he's thinking clearly that he does the most damage. We explain by way of examples, of course. Also, there's a lot of trans content on the podcast today, mostly thanks to Pres. Biden as well. And then, Alex gives his thoughts on the globalist aristocrat and new U.K. Prime Minister Rishi Sunak. Overall, he is bad news for nationalism and conservatism. We have two terrific guests today. The first is JD Vance, who is running for U.S. Senate in Ohio. He is going up against Rep. Tim Ryan (D-OH), who votes in lockstep with House Speaker Nancy Pelosi.

He quite reasonably says that we are all being distracted from the biggest crisis of the moment, which is the influx of illegal aliens and fentanyl crossing our border.

This is your CrossPolitic Daily News Brief for Friday, February 4th, 2022. I realize I’m probably not who you were expecting… My name is Garrison Hardie, and I am the Business Development Representative for CrossPolitic. You may have heard my ad before on some of our other shows, and now I’m pinch hitting for the news brief. Let’s see how this first at-bat goes, starting with A Christian app called “Pray.com” reserves the right to sell your prayers! https://faithfullymagazine.com/christian-apps-sell-your-prayers/ According to Faithfully Magazine, “Prominent venture capitalists are flocking to invest in Christian worship apps. The apps say users’ prayers are a business asset.” “Pray.com collects data about its users in multiple ways. According to its privacy policy, the company records detailed information about users, including their physical location, the links they click on, and the text of the posts they make. Then, it supplements that information with data from “third-parties such as data analytics providers and data brokers,” which can include “your gender, age, religious affiliation, ethnicity, marital status, household size and income, political party affiliation and interests… geographic location, and Personal Information.” The policy also says Pray.com shares users’ personal information, including identifiers that link their activity to specific devices, with “third parties” for “commercial purposes.” I guess as soon as a prayer in the app rings, a soul from purgatory springs! LA Mayor Eric Garcetti defends maskless photo of him with Magic Johnson and claims there was 'zero per cent chance' of catching COVID - Saying “He held his breath.” https://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-10471247/LA-Mayor-Eric-Garcetti-says-held-breath-maskless-photo-Magic-Johnson.html Los Angeles Mayor Eric Garcetti said he held his breath when he took off his mask to pose for a photo with NBA legend Magic Johnson at a football game Sunday, claiming there is 'zero percent chance' of COVID infection when doing this…….. Trust the science people! 'I'm holding my breath literally for two seconds,' he said. 'There is a zero percent chance of infection from that. I put my mask right back on ... to make sure that there is no spread. And I think that we should all follow that advice until we're out of this period.' Kind of like when Bill Clinton admitted to smoking marijuana quote, “a time or two. I didn’t like it, and I didn’t inhale it.” According to the CDC, like other respiratory diseases, people who are infected with COVID-19 emit tiny virus-laden droplets when they breath, speak or sing. Once these are suspended in the air, they can then be taken in by another person — allowing the infection to spread. Garcetti wasn't alone in facing criticism for shedding his mask last weekend, if even for a moment. Gov. Gavin Newsom and San Francisco Mayor London Breed also were photographed without masks at the game. The smiling Democrats were seen posing barefaced for photographs with basketball legend Magic Johnson inside a box suite at the SoFi Stadium during the game. Like Garcetti, Newsom said he removed his mask briefly during the game. 'I was very judicious yesterday ... In my left hand's the mask, and I took a photo,' he said. 'The rest of the time I wore it, as we all should.' Well said sir Newsom, well said! You know what we all should do? Have accountability on our electronic devices!

My answer then is consistent with my answer now, that one has to be very, very cautious before deploying military in situations engaging Canadians, it is not something that anyone should entertain in lightly. As of now, there have been no requests, and that is not in the cards right now," he said. Was he consistent though? Here’s what Trudeau said back in 2020 about deploying the military against its own citizens. Play Video - https://twitter.com/i/status/1489029600441217024 Trudeau went on to say he’ll continue “to stand by the almost 90 percent of truckers who are vaccinated, stand by the millions upon millions of Canadians who just want to get their lives back and who know that getting back to the things we love requires vaccinations." Speaking of the truck convoy, GoFundMe has suspended a multimillion-dollar fundraiser for the Canadian freedom truckers for the second time in two weeks… Big Tech wants to cut them off at their knees. https://notthebee.com/article/gofundme-has-suspended-a-multimillion-dollar-fundraiser-for-the-canadian-freedom-truckers-for-the-second-time-in-two-weeks?fbclid=IwAR1unswdlnpE8jKo99OEQA5F5P66mBxU0NHmAy7Xl3H6MwPomnXGFGoKXMU GoFundMe has suspended a fundraiser for the "Freedom Convoy" of truckers and supporters who have tied up downtown Ottawa while protesting vaccine mandates. The fundraiser, which is now under review, has currently raised more than $10 million [Canadian]. It's the second time GoFundMe has suspended access to the money. GoFundMe stated: "This fundraiser is currently paused and under review to ensure it complies with our terms of service and applicable laws and regulations," said a pinned post from GoFundMe at the top of the fundraiser on Wednesday night. "Our team is working 24/7 and doing all we can to protect both organizers and donors. Thank you for your patience." Funds were frozen by GoFundMe the first time in mid-January when the funds were at $4.5 million... Seeing as it’s Friday today, let’s end with some good news shall we? Facebook lost daily users for the first time in its 18-year history in the final quarter of 2021. https://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-10471227/Facebook-loses-users-time-Zuckerberg-blames-TikTok-boom.html CEO Mark Zuckerberg believes was caused by the TikTok boom. - Or maybe I don’t know, it could be that he keeps banning users of the app… The social media giant's devastating earnings report on Wednesday sent Facebook shares plunging more than 20 percent, wiping more than $200 billion off the company's market cap and erasing $29 billion from Zuckerberg's net worth. Facebook reported a drop of nearly 500,000 in daily logins during the last three months of 2021. Let’s hope this trend continues!
