Olympic News, Amir Locke Killed by MPD, Andrew Cuomo and Chris Cuomo Updates

February 9, 2022, Gala Sisters' News Break

  • A 15-year-old Russian Olympic figure skater became the first woman to land a quad successfully in a competition on Monday, February 7. 

  • This Sunday, February 13, the Rams will play the Bengals in Super Bowl LVI. Personally, we are looking forward to WrestleMania 38 on April 2 and 3rd which will be held in Texas. RAW and NXT will air on SyFy in place of the USA during the Olympics.

  • 5 Activists, led by the Rev. Al Sharpton, met with the NFL commissioner, Roger Goodell in response to a discrimination suit brought by former Dolphins coach, Brian Flores. They are urging Goodell to replace the Rooney Rule. The Rooney Rule states that they must interview people of color for Coaching positions, but not hire them. This is doing more harm than good.

  • Former Fox News star, Chris Wallace’s future at CNN remains unclear after the recent departure of disgraced CEO Jeff Zucker. Zucker had assured Wallace his mortal enemy, Jake Tapper, would not be a problem. Now Wallace finds himself floating aimlessly without a crew or any timeline for launch. 

  • Don Lemon threw former coworker (and friend?) Chris Cuomo under the bus by saying that CNN shouldn’t pay him any of the $18 million Cuomo is asking for after being wrongfully terminated. 

  • Many States across the nation are ending mask mandates. This leaves parents very concerned for the safety of their children at school. In our own MN, the schools were proactive and made their own individual mask rules. But will other State districts be so smart about it?

  • In an interview with The Wallstreet Journal Andrew Cuomo sends a cryptic message about his plans for the 2022 Gubernatorial race. He expressed regret over resigning as he has been 100 percent vindicated. Meanwhile, the New York leg grapples with the Republican Assemblyman Doug Smith’s request to remove Cuomo’s picture from the hall of Governors. Smith introduced the “Predator Prevention Act” which would not allow any Governor to display their picture in the Albany State Capital who did not complete their term without special permission from the Leg.

  • Matilda Cuomo’s name was briefly removed from the State Mentoring Program she founded but was quickly reinstated following a massive public outcry. They must have realized they made a mistake. 

  • President Biden gave a short speech yesterday and quickly left the podium without taking any questions. He had a meeting with the new German Chancellor Olaf Scholz where they agreed to withhold the Nord Stream 2 gas pipeline from Russia if they invade Ukraine.

  • On February 2 a young 22-year-old male by the name of Amir Locke was murdered by Minneapolis Police. The police were executing a no-knock warrant in a homicide case and Amir was somehow killed despite the fact the arrest warrant was not for him. After initially refusing to do so, the MPD finally released the body cam footage. This has outraged the community and increased calls to ban no-knock warrants. 

  • The FBI announced they are investigating a meeting that occurred in a garage in DC on January 5, 2021 between extreme Right Groups Oath Keepers and Proud Boys.

  • Republican House Minority Leader Kevin McCarthy made a shocking statement on Wednesday about January 6, 2021. He said, “I think anybody, we all know this, that entered this building, that rioted, is not a legitimate discourse.” Up until now, he had denied anyone had done anything wrong at the Capitol. 

  • The Gala Sisters held their first Live AMA, Ask Me Anything, with guest Activist Derek on Saturday February 5.
