The U.S. Congress recently approved $14B in military aid to Israel to use for the genocide of the Palestinians at Rafah in the Gaza where more than 1.4M Palestinians have moved too in order to escape continuous bombings and mass killings of unarmed Palestinians including children and medical first responders.
At least 6 medical facilities of 36 remained operating with limited medical supplies and major surgeries are done without anesthesia, according to mainstream and Gaza news sources.
At the rally on Sunday, a student from the Students for a Democratic Society, student organization at the University of Wisconsin-Milwaukee says the Chancellor has agreed to meet with 5 students after they held a 6 hour sit-in at the Chancellor's Office on February 9, 2024 at Chapman Hall. The student demands included for UWM to divest from weapons manufacturers that aid the Palestinian genocide, stop all student abroad trips to Israel and rename the Golda Meir Library and remove all monuments to her legacy.

WI: Protest going on at Supermercado El Rey at the 900 block of S. C茅sar E. Ch谩vez Drive seeking Justice for Pito, also known as Luis Lorenzo, 36, who was killed by Enoch Wilson, 45, a Marshall Public Safety security guard (Supervisor) after Pito shot and killed Anthony "Tony" James Nolden, 59, another security guard in self-defense.
On July 9, 2022, Pito went to El Rey on Ch谩vez Drive to eat at the indoor fast food taqueria (taco restaurant) when he was stopped by Nolden who told Pito that no backpacks were allowed inside the store. Pito refused to leave his backpack at the customer service counter and began to leave El Rey. Once outside of El Rey, Pito and Nolden exchanged words and then Pito began to walk away into the parking when Nolden is seen chasing him and spraying Pito multiple times with pepper spray, at that time Wilson arrived and joined Nolden in pepper spraying Pito as well, as both of them tackled Pito to the ground, according to an outdoor surveillance video footage. Pito fearing for his life (he was blinded and was choking from the pepper spray), took out a handgun and fatally shot Nolden in the parking lot, then Wilson fatally shot Pito.
On Sunday afternoon, October 8, 2023, dozens of protesters walked on the sidewalk by El Supermercado El Rey chanting "El Rey Cover-up, Justice for Pito., We Won't Stop Until We Get Justice!"

An appeal is also pending with the Wisconsin Court of Appeals in the case challenging the July 21, 2023 decision of Milwaukee County Judge William Sosnay to dismiss all claims against El Rey Enterprises, which indicates that those who contract security guard agencies will not be held accountable for any wrongful death liability lawsuit brought upon b

Just venting about the low grade sound system being used at the El Rey/Rosen Automotive Stage at Mexican Fiesta 2023
WI: I realized that the sound system being utilized by Mexican Fiesta 2023 at the El Rey/Rosen Automotive Stage has its limits and the sound tech with the pony tail confirmed that he couldn't increase the sound of the system because the system would crash. He also said that he couldn't raise the sound because there were to many kids in that crowd...really, how about their parents?
Anyone standing and not seating in the middle section of the benches in near the front of the stage, well unless you were wearing a hearing aid, you could actually increase the volume, but if you weren't wearing a hearing aid with volume control, you were out of luck in trying to dance and enjoy the outdoor concert from the stage.
It seems that any Mexican Fiesta attendees not seating by the center of the area discovered they must suffer from a hearing loss including myself.馃槀馃ぃ馃槀
Not everyone can seat in the center in front of the stage because of limited seating.
I went to the sound tech and asked him, if the system was failing, he tried to explain the intricacies in operating a sound system.
I convinced him to follow me to the area about 50 feet from the bar, before crossing the go-cart service pathway close to the bathroom to listen and notice that the stage sound and singing of the performer Chente Barrera on Saturday, August 26, 2023 at 6:30 p.m. sounded like he was a mile away and we couldn't understand what he was saying or singing.
All I know about a sound system is either you have the option to increase the sound to a moderate level without damaging the system or blowing away people's hearing.
In this case, it sounds that the system being used at the stage must be an indoor system compared to an outdoor sound system.
If you happened to be at that stage area on Friday and Saturday and you thought you were deaf, believe me, you are not, it's the low

TX: On late Sunday, August 13, 2023, Priscilla Villarreal Trevi帽o, 37, also known as La Gordiloca (Lagordiloca News LaredoTx page) exposed (FB post: https://tinyurl.com/3pv9pys3) the current United Independent School District (UISD) Superintendent David H. Gonz谩lez from Laredo, Texas attempting to coerce Ana Cordova who (identified by La Gordiloca) allegedly claims that she was sexually harassed in 2011 by Gonz谩lez who was then the principal of Washington Middle School. In the audio recording played by La Gordiloca on her Facebook account on Sunday night, Gonz谩lez is trying to coach Cordova what to say in order for the sexual harassment case to be dismissed against him and he also told her that he went to a local priest and confessed about what he did and he apologized to Cordova. He also told her that U.S. Congressman Henry Cuellar called him concerning his situation.
In the audio recording (dated: April 2021), Gonz谩lez also confessed to what had happened with Cordova, but it seems that he was trying to save his current job, especially when he was attempting to coerce Cordova to recant her sexual harassment allegations with the UISD Human Resources and to lie, which allegedly makes him guilty of sexual harassment and coercing the victim in order to avoid an internal investigation against him by the UISD and Board Members.
Cordova claims that due to the sexual harassment in 2011, she suffered panic attacks, very high blood pressure and depression and was hospitalized. Her doctor recommended a change of work or she would suffer a serious illness.
Audio recording between UISD Superintendent Gonz谩lez and Cordova courtesy of Lagordiloca News LaredoTx.
Cordova and her attorneys at Altgelt Law Offices filed a sex discrimination, retaliation and sexual harassment complaint on August 10, 2023 with the U.S. Equal Employment Opportunity Commission (EEOC) and David R.
