BANKING WHILE BLACK: JP MORGAN CHASE CALLS COPS ON MAYOR RICHARD THOMAS

Image
Mayor Richard Thomas Chase calls cops on Mayor Richard Thomas while professionally and peacefully Inquiring about MV City's Signature Account. Today Mayor Richard Thomas discussed how staff at JP Morgan Chase summoned the police on him, his staff member, and a Mount Vernon Police detective as the Mayor sought to deposit a six figure check and access to the City’s online banking records.   A Chase employee called the police on Wednesday, April 25, after Mayor Thomas was invited into a conference room and after Mayor Thomas had introduced the two people with him, including the police detective. The response by the White Plains Police Department was resolved amicably after one of the responding officers recognized the Mount Vernon Police detective. Mayor Thomas believes that race certainly played a role in the Chase employees calling the police. The two staffers who accompanied Mayor Thomas are black and Hispanic. “As a Mayor and as a young, well-e

NEW MUST SEE THRILLER 'THE SAMARITANS' NEXT PARANORMAL ACTIVITY?

Image
The Samaritans Movie Review: The Samaritans 2019 TIMES SQUARE GOSSIP EXCLUSIVE: The Samaritans is a new thriller from Viva Pictures being released on digital and on demand April 16 2019 and that date can’t come soon enough. It is a rare movie where the “making of” story is as intriguing as its polished finished product. It is not hyperbole to put The Samaritans on the same list as other micro-budget success stories, Blair Witch Project and Paranormal Activity, two other independent horror/thrillers that transcended their limitations while leaving an indelible mark on the genre. Simply put, this creepy thriller is based on a premise that brings four co-workers together for the first time to complete work on a new app. The quirky quartet apparently has only collaborated online so their face-to-face meeting seems to carry some additional weight. They quickly complete their task and celebrate their “Spin-the-Bottle” for the smart phone era with a toast that leads directly
