Cher Sues Heirs Of Sonny Bono Over Song And Record Revenue LOS ANGELES (AP) — Cher has sued the widow of her former musical partner and ex-husband Sonny Bono over royalties for Sonny and Cher songs including “I Got You Babe” and “The Beat Goes On.” In a federal lawsuit filed in Los Angeles on Wednesday, Cher alleges that former Rep. Mary Bono and other defendants have attempted to terminate provisions of business agreements Cher and Sonny Bono reached when they divorced in 1975 that entitled each to 50% of songwriting and recording royalties. The lawsuit says that Sonny Bono’s heirs filed notice in 2016 that they were terminating some of his song licensing agreements, but they “did not terminate, and could not have terminated” his agreements with Cher. The breach-of-contract lawsuit alleges that the damages to Cher total at least $1 million. Mary Bono’s attorney said the family’s moves are within their rights and the law. “The Copyright Act allows Sonny’s widow and children to reclaim Sonny’s copyrights from publishers, which is what they did,” attorney Daniel Schacht said in a statement. “Representative Bono remains open to continuing a private discussion about this, but we are confident that, if necessary, the court will affirm their position.” Cher Sues Heirs Of Sonny Bono Over Song And Record Revenue | HuffPost Entertainment

'Shameful and dangerous': Oklahoma woman faces 4 years in prison for miscarriage Reproductive rights advocates warned Thursday that the manslaughter conviction of a woman in Oklahoma following her pregnancy loss is just the latest case that sets a "dangerous precedent" for pregnant people across the country—and represents the result of numerous extreme restrictions on reproductive rights including Texas' six-week abortion ban. Twenty-year-old Brittney Poolaw was sentenced last week to four years in prison after being convicted of first-degree manslaughter, a charge that was applied to a miscarriage she experienced last year. After seeking medical attention at Comanche County Hospital for the pregnancy loss, which happened early last year when Poolaw was 17 weeks pregnant, she was arrested in March 2020 and incarcerated with her bond set at $20,000. Unable to afford bail, Poolaw has now spent more than 18 months behind bars for her miscarriage. Calling Poolaw's prosecution and conviction "shameful and dangerous," the National Advocates for Pregnant Women (NAPW) said it is supporting Poolaw "as she explores her legal options." The group noted that at her one-day trial last week, a medical examiner's report did not identify Poolaw's use of controlled substances as the cause of her pregnancy loss. Oklahoma's manslaughter and murder laws also do not apply to miscarriages, but a prosecutor nonetheless sought Poolaw's conviction. An autopsy report found that the fetus tested positive for methamphetamine, amphetamine, and another drug in the liver and brain, while the medical examiner detected a congenital abnormality, placental abruption, and chorioamnionitis, according to ABC affiliate KSWO. "Ms. Poolaw's case is a tragedy," said the organization. "She has suffered the trauma of pregnancy loss, has been jailed for a year and half during a pandemic, and was charged and convicted of a crime without basis in law or science."

And they need to do so. Brexit has caused a multitude of problems that were predicted but not believed by many and the consequences need to be dealt with. Consumer prices have risen, there are shortages of everyday goods, and many services are suffering, not to mention the healthcare is staggering under the impact of a COVID crisis that was criminally mishandled. Not a good time to be a Brit.

And the COVIDiots will decry this as baseless propaganda. They are so deeply invested in their beliefs that admitting they have been utter fools is unthinkable.

There is a lot of evidence that there is polarizing of political beliefs to the point where violence is assumed to be acceptable. I would bet that the assailant is an anti-vaxxer but this all falls on Trump and his GOP supporters for legitimizing violence as a response to perceived grievances and an acceptable political expression. Barring aggressive prosecutions, it seems inevitable that the targets of right-wing/neo-Nazis will start responding in kind, and this will provide police and Fox News an excuse to escalate their attacks.
