course, and this is a picture of a guy, i m not saying the guy in the picture is himself cute, honestly, what would i, know not my area expertise. but i think just as a picture, regardless of the guy, i think as a picture this is kind of cute. just in terms of composition. in part because it s kind of got a swirl effects. like on the upper left side of the image, we ve got his eye that s looking kind of whisky, kind of head downstream, but then on the lower right side of the image he s got the biggest mark, heading straight up towards his ear so the whole thing is kind of a swirl you know? just as a picture as a mugshot in particular i think that s not bad. that person is the attorney general of the great state of texas and that is in fact his mugshot. his name is ken who s indicted in booked into the collin county jail in texas on felony securities fraud charges a few years ago, those felony charges are still pending against him, he was still under indictment on multiple fel
our hearts leslie. thank you for the laughs and for the light, for the love, and your incredible warmth. you will truly be missed. and on that beautiful and very sad note, i wish you all the best. from all of our colleagues across the networks of nbc news, thank you for staying up late with us. i will see you at the end of tomorrow. tomorrow so, here s how it worked in 2020. two years ago, almost exactly in october 2020, we reported here on this show on something that we first learned about from one of the great historic gigantic radio stations and the united states, that the michigan behemoth that is wwj radio in detroit, michigan. wwj has been on the air for more than 100 years. they re just a huge deal in american broadcasting history. they are still on the air today. they are still a big deal today. and just about exactly two years ago, on october, 2020, we learned about a story that was broken by a reporter at wwj, named sandra mcneill. sandra mcneill had gotten a tip fr
outstanding debts the cdc is even pushing to give preference for mail-in voting to try people for mandatory vaccines. don t be complacent given your private information to the man. stay safe, and beware of vote by mail. absolutely no that is true that is all complete and total poppy if you vote via mail in the not coming for credit card debts there not committee be mandatory shots none of that is true, but in 2020 that call went out to thousands, of mostly black voters and cities across the midwest in the northeast. the purpose of the robocalls not hard to figure, out it was meant to scare black voters, out of voting by, mail may be out of a scare them out a voting at all, as no mystery who s behind it, the names were literally in the rubble call. it s no civil rights organization, it is just a couple of pro trump right-wing activists who actually put their name on the call but what they did there, that was a crime, that was a criminal voter suppression and i can say
that with confidence, because just a few months ago the two men who made that call, pled guilty to felony charges in ohio, related to sending out those calls to voters in cleveland also in michigan, the same two men are charged with a felony for sending out those calls and detroit, just a couple of weeks ago a federal judge in new york, ruled those calls violated, the kkk act, i violating the civil rights of voters that ruling came in a civil case brought by new york attorney general tish james, who says she wants the two men to pay nearly $3 million in penalties in that civil case, they ll be on top of the 5 million dollar penalty the fcc has already proposed for them which would be the largest fine for robocall in u.s. history. that s how it s been going for those guys. for that robocall they sent out, trying to scare black voters out of casting their ballots, effectively to trick black voters out of illegally voting. well today, new case, same idea,
