…..If you know about her….I’m really impressed….remember hearing or reading about….Charles “Lucky” Luciano?…..in 1935….Lucky was the de facto head of the “commission”…..a powerful syndicate of NYC’s five largest organized crime families….and he made a ton of money….drug dealing, loan sharking, lotteries and a bunch of other stuff…..and he did it all while keeping his name out of the newspaper headlines….because the press was more interested in Dutch Schultz….another Mafia sleazebag….and Lucky was lucky….until Eunice came along….and she was a trailblazing black female lawyer….she was born in 1899 in Atlanta, Georgia…..attended Smith College in 1917….became just the second woman to earn both a bachelor’s and master’s degree from the school within four years….became a writer, social worker and a political campaigner….was part of Harlem’s high society….and in 1932 she became just the second Black female graduate of Fordham Law School…..struggled for a minute to get her private practice going….and wound up as a volunteer assistant in NYC’s Woman Courts….she accepted the Republican nomination for a state assembly seat in 1934…..even though she lost the race….Mayor Fiorello La Guardia appointed her secretary of his Commission on Conditions in Harlem in 1935….that summer she was named to a team convened by special prosecutor Thomas E. Dewey to crack down on mob activity….and she was the only Black female lawyer among them…..and yes she was on the bottom of the pecking order….Dewey was asking New Yorkers for tips on illegal activities….but really he wasn’t interested in dealing with it….she was….she convinced a fellow prosecutor, Murry Gurfein that illegal prostitution might be connected to the Mafia….and together they persuaded Dewey to obtain permission to wiretap the offices of bondmen involved in the Women’s Court cases….the teams focus was disrupted by the Mob-ordered hit on Schultz in 1935….and Lucky was more determined to kill Dewey…..and Eunice continued to collect information via the wiretap….combining the citizens tips…..Eunice compiled a thorough file on brothels throughout the city…..her many interviews formed an understanding of how the Mob had control of the business a few year earlier……with workers now prompted to pay a weekly “bond fee” to ensure they received special privileges…..and were put in front of preferred judges should legal problems arise…..by 1936….the wiretaps were paying off…..on the night of February 1st….she oversaw a raid on dozens of brothels and arrested potential informants into custody…..the arrested women first had nothing to say….until the bondsmen who kept them out of jail were getting arrested….then women started singing….Dewey was ready to hit Lucky with an indictment….but Lucky flew the coop to Hot Spring, Arkansas…..they found him and escorted him back to NYC to stand trial….along with a few of his friends…..Eunice wasn’t included in the trial proceedings….but she was hailed for her contributions…..Dewey dented the defense with his brutal interrogation of Lucky….but Lucky was a hard nut to crack….it was the convincing testimony of several prostitutes that swayed the jury….and Lucky did a 30-50 year bid in the joint…..even though Eunice was kicked to the curb during the trial….Dewey publicly acknowledged her contributions after the conviction..…he also enlisted her as an assistant for the April 1937 hearing for a retrial….which was quickly decided in favor for the prosecution…..she later worked with the United Nations and Black-run organizations….like the National Council of Negro Women until her death in 1970.
REP. LAUREN BOEBERT ASKED A GROUP OF JEWISH CAPITOL VISITORS IF THEY WERE DOING “RECONNAISSANCE”…..Dear America…..please stop electing “STUPID PEOPLE” to political positions…..this woman actually said,… “I saw a large group and made a joke. Sadly when the Democrats see the same they demonize my family for a year straight…..I’m too short to see anyone’s yarmulkes”…..the Rabbi along with the group said….. “The bottom line is that everyone, especially members of Congress, have to be very, very thoughtful in the language they use. Because when you’re a member of Congress, you have an important role to play in society. You can’t be cavalier in the comments you make especially if they can perceived as being antisemitic or discriminatory” …..she’s way too stupid to understand what the Rabbi said…..anyway,…..and I have a serious question…..
IF THE TRUMP CRIME FAMILY…..Has nothing to hide….then why did the dumbest one from the shallow gene pool….Eric…..who was testifying in front of a committee….plead the 5th…..500 times?….that has got to be in the Guinness Book of World Records soon.
MITCH McCONNELL….In regards to the failed attempt to move the John Lewis Voting Rights Advancement Act to the Senate floor….Mitchie was asked to comment on the concerns among Black voters….this is what came out of this racist man’s mouth….. “Well the concern is misplaced, because if you look at the statistics, African-American voters are voting just as high a percentage as Americans”…..and to quote Toni Morrison….. “In this country, American means white, everybody else has to hyphenate.”…..someone on Twitter also said,…. “Thank you, Mitch, for demonstrating the importance of Critical Race Theory.”
