Workers at Allegheny Health Network affiliate Warren General Hospital voted Saturday to strike, straining already fragile medical resources in rural northwest Pennsylvania. The 114 nurses and health care workers, who are members of the Pennsylvania Association of Staff Nurses and Allied Professionals, issued a 10-day strike notice at the 87-bed hospital — the only acute care facility in the county. The labor agreement with workers expired in September, and negotiations were scheduled to continue Monday, hospital CEO Rick Allen said. The hospital has offered pay increases of 4.2% to over 16%, plus enhanced contributions to employees’ […]

The mayor of Rochester, New York, was indicted for felony campaign finance fraud Friday. During her 2017 campaign, Lovely Warren allegedly used political action committee (PAC) funds for campaign purposes in excess of the allowed $8,557.

Monroe County District Attorney Sandra Doorley did not specify how much money Warren used from her PAC, but said it was in […]

Big Ten Commissioner Kevin Warren says no sports through the end of the year due to COVID. But… he’s fine with his son playing ball at Mississippi state…and despite every single Athletic Director in the Big Ten wanting to play ball. As reported earlier, the Big Ten named Kevin Warren the Commissioner of the league last June. They probably didn’t see that this political hack would end all sports for the second half of 2020 when they did. Warren is supposed to oversee sports for the conference, not kill them. Shortly after Warren took over Big Ten sports, Warren showed his […]
Sen. Elizabeth Warren (D-MA) spent much of the Democratic primary belting back (and even happily promoting) attacks from monied interests on everything from the details of her wealth tax to her grander vision for financial restrictions in the country. Now, some cash-flush alarm-sounders have gone mute on the Massachusetts Democrat. “Not a peep,” one prominent Democratic donor adviser said when asked if Warren’s name is mentioned with any regularity on finance calls about the general election. “I’m on calls 12 hours a day and it just doesn’t ever come up.” As former Vice President Joe Biden attempts to give something to […]
In 2009, 16-year-old comics fan Aviva Maï met a thirtysomething artist, who flirted with her by text and took her out on a date.

On June 15, amid nationwide protests around police violence and racism, Maï, now an artist and model, tweeted an oblique reference to that creator. Later […]
