Fuerst, a former administrative and presiding judge of the 34-member, largely White general division common pleas bench in the county, to deny indigent Blacks counsel after she issues illegal warrants to jail them in the county jail where more than 20 inmates have died since 2018. And County Council is supporting Fuerst and Sweeney, saying that Fuerst has the sole responsibility to appoint counsel, not the county, which is also illegal and unconstitutional.  "We sent an attorney to talk to Ju

U.S.Rep Shontel Brown (D-OH) staff article by Kathy Wray Coleman, editor WASHINGTON, D.C. – Ohio   Congresswoman Shontel Brown (OH-11) on Tuesday voted No on H.R. 7217, a multi- billion dollar funding bill for Israel hastily brought to the  floor by House Republican leaders as they backed out of a previously announced framework requested by Republicans – to tie $7.6 billion in security funding for Israel and funding for Taiwan and Ukraine to a border security bill.  President Biden had promised to veto passage of the bill by congress, saying that singling out Israel for funding is unfair, unreasonable, and bad public policy. House Speaker Mike Johnson, a Republican, failed to get approval to advance the standalone bill amid opposition from some of his fellow Republicans, and Democrats across the aisle.  Elected to congress with the president's public endorsement, Brown is a Biden ally who campaigned on a promise to support the president if elected as as a federal lawmaker, and the

U.S. appeals court rules against Trump's presidential immunity claim in Jan 6 case, paving the way for trial....By Clevelandurbannewscom, Ohio's Black digital news leader

WASHINGTON, D.C. — A U.S. federal appeals court three-judge panel in Washington , D.C.  ruled against former President Donald Trump on Tuesday, paving the way for a celebrated  trial on charges that he illegally sought to overturn the results of the 2020 election and tossing his claim and that of his lawyers that  he is  immune from prosecution. Trump has vowed to appeal to the U.S. Supreme court where three of the nine justices are his appointments and it is not clear whether the high court will take up the case. Prosecutors  say the former president orchestrated events that led to the Jan 6 2021 Capitol riot. His attorneys say he is innocent and immune from prosecution relative to  actions occurring while he was president. In a case of first impression, the appeals court discarded every argument raised by Trump's legal team and ruled that neither Trump nor any other president has unbounded authority  or presidential immunity to commit crimes in  office free from prosecution. The

Rep. Sykes pictured at the sign marking the official border between Mexico and the United States.    WASHINGTON, D.C.  — Last week, U.S. Rep. Emilia Sykes (OH-13), an Akron Democrat, traveled to the El Paso sector of the U.S./Mexico border.  During the trip, hosted by Rep. Veronica Escobar (TX-16), Sykes visited various sites to get a complete look at the issues migrants and federal law enforcement agents face along the border. Ohio’s 13th congressional district that Sykes leads is home to some  39,231 immigrants from across the globe. In Congress, Rep. Sykes is a member of the Democrats for Border Security Task Force and is a co-sponsor of the  Stop Fentanyl Now Act , bipartisan legislation to combat the opioid crisis by cracking down on the flow of deadly fentanyl into the United States.    “For too long, discussions in D.C. around border security and immigration reform have been partisan, with the current House majority prioritizing political stunts over real policy solutions. I was

  Ohio  Senate Minority Leader Nickie J. Antonio (D-Lakewood) COLUMBUS – Today,  Senate Democratic Leader Nickie J. Antonio (D-Lakewood), who's district includes 14 of Cleveland's 17 wards,   responded to Attorney General Dave Yost and House Republicans' push to introduce a new, unproven method of executions in Ohio fueled by nitrogen gas. "There is no humane form of execution in 2024," said  Antonio in a statement . "It is unfortunate that anyone would rush to the nearest camera to plead for the introduction of experimental methods to resume the barbaric practice. The state of Alabama has resurrected its death penalty procedures using nitrogen gas, a method so unconscionable that veterinarians reject its use to euthanize animals. Ohio should show moral leadership and reject the death penalty outright rather than fall in line with this misguided policy."  Nitrogen hypoxia is an execution method in which death is caused by forcing an inmate to breathe onl

Staff article: investigative article CLEVELANDURANNEWS.COM-CLEVELAND, Ohio- The Cuyahoga County Court of Common Pleas criminal division manager under Clerk of Courts Nailah Byrd who allegedly helped sinister White judges and prosecutors fix grand jury indictments against Blacks is now a policy adviser to Cuyahoga County Council after first being reassigned as an assistant to the county executive , an investigation by Clevelandurbannews.com and Kathywraycolemanonlinenewsblog.com reveals. And the grand jury indictments are marked by judicial, prosecutorial and other entrenched impropriety, public records show, including tampering with records by concealing the original indictments with a forged indictment of more charges when crooked White cops after Blacks are the primary complainers or culprits in the cases. And White men, largely judges and assistant county prosecutors, are primarily at the helm, data show James Boyle, the common pleas criminal division clerk manager under Byrd in
