You have 7 days to save the world6/29/2023 An estimated 17.6 billion pounds of plastic leaks into the marine environment from land-based sources every year-that’s roughly equivalent to dumping a garbage truck full of plastic into our oceans every minute. The oceans face a massive and growing threat from plastics. Here are 10 lifestyle choices that – when adopted – can help protect and restore our oceans for future generations. Saving the oceans can sometimes feel like an overwhelming task, but if we all pitch in, we can make a big difference. Oceans cover 71 percent of the planet and are home to important species and ecosystems that we rely on for food, livelihoods, climate regulation and more. They seek to ‘restrain’ a criminal investigation before any charges are filed or even sought they ask that the judicial system place them above and apart from the common administration of the criminal law and they do so by raising arguments for which they have no standing, or which they failed to timely join, or which they have already failed, or which have no basis in law at all.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 Willis wrote in the filing that Trump and Latham “are not content to follow the ordinary course of the law. Willis (D) said the motion-which was joined last month by Cathy Latham, a Georgia Republican and alternate Trump elector who has been named as a target in the investigation-was “procedurally flawed and advance arguments that lack merit.” In a response filed late Monday afternoon, Fulton County district attorney Fani T. If Trump fails to “cease and desist any such further unauthorized use of the Village People image in association with the songs and his campaign (or in his personal capacity),” Willis said the group will sue to stop the use of not only “Village People trademarked image and trade dress, but of the music as well.”Īn Atlanta-area prosecutor investigating whether Donald Trump and his allies broke the law when they sought to overturn Trump’s 2020 election loss in Georgia asked a judge Monday to dismiss a motion by Trump’s attorneys seeking to throw out evidence gathered by a special-purpose grand jury, claiming the former president is trying to block an investigation before “any charges are filed.” The prosecution filing was in response to a March 20 motion by Trump’s Georgia-based legal team that sought to block the release of a final report issued in January by the special grand jury and “preclude the use of any evidence derived” from its investigation, claiming it was “conducted under an unconstitutional statute” and “through an illegal and unconstitutional process” that violated Trump’s due process rights. We did not.” She added: “Though my husband has tolerated your client’s use of his Village People music, we cannot allow such use by him to cause public confusion as to endorsement.” “Therefore, the performance has, and continues to cause public confusion as to why Village People would even engage in such a performance. “Since that time we have been inundated with social media posts about the imitation performance many fans, and the general public as well, mistakenly believe to be that of the actual VILLAGE PEOPLE in violation of the Lanham Act,” Willis wrote. Yes, we speak of the ’70s-era band best known for songs like “Y.M.C.A.” and “Macho Man.” On Monday, Karen Willis, the band’s manager and the wife of its lead singer, sent Trump’s lawyer a cease and desist demanding that the ex-president stop using impersonators, after a video of a group of Village People look-alikes performing “Macho Man” at Mar-a-Lago went viral. But this week he earned a new and perhaps surprising enemy: the Village People. Donald Trump has made a lot of enemies over his nearly eight decades on earth, and with good reason: He’s a sexual predator who ran a sham university and sham charity, separated migrant families to disastrous ends, implemented racist polices, and tried to overturn the results of a free and fair election because he couldn’t just admit he lost.
