Trudeaus open arms program is backfiring. Getting there wouldn’t necessarily guarantee that they get to stay, despite Trudeau’s invitation.
The Royal Canadian Mounted Police are reporting surges in illegal crossings in Canada in recent months. Officials say Quebec has seen the highest influx of people seeking asylum, with many crossing in remote, snowy areas west of Lake Champlain.
One illegal border crossing area has become so popular among immigrants seeking asylum that all taxis in Champlain, New York, know it by name: Roxham Road.
It’s so well-known that, according to people who live on the road, the Canadian police stay parked on their side of the border most days. In New York state, taxi drivers follow a protocol where they contact U.S. Border Patrol if someone requests drop-off there — the person is still granted their ride, but U.S. officials often stop the cab to check the person’s paperwork.
Wednesday, an officer in a U.S. Border Patrol car parked at the end of Roxham Road said that by 11 a.m. already two families had walked across illegally. They knowingly walked into arrest by the Canadian police waiting on the other side.
Refugee advocates say the reason so many are crossing illegally is because of the Safe Third Country Agreement signed by the U.S. and Canada in 2002. The pact is meant to prevent “shopping for asylum” in both countries; it requires refugees seeking asylum to do so in the country they reach first.
Choosing Police Arrest
Roxham Road is a quiet pastoral road about 20 miles north of Plattsburgh, New York. There are a smattering of trailer homes, and a picturesque barn with curious horses outside, their breath fogging the chilly air.
The road itself dead-ends with little fanfare; there’s a sign saying “Road Closed” at the end, then a long ditch running east-west that marks the U.S.-Canada border. The only indication that it’s an official border is a small 3-foot plastic marker that says “U.S. and Canada.”
There are several well-worn paths up and over the snow bank and through the ditch, where many people have walked between the two countries.
U.S. Border Patrol has the authority to stop people near the border who officers suspect to be non-citizens, but they cannot detain them if their passport and visa are in order. That’s why even refuge-seekers who are clearly intending to walk into Canada can only be arrested on the other side, after they commit the crime of crossing the border not at a port of entry.
Just before noon on Wednesday, a blue Honda minivan cab rounds the corner on Roxham Road. It’s stopped by the U.S. border patrol, and the officer opens the sliding door and speaks with the woman. Moments later, the taxi is allowed to continue on.
The cab drives about a half a mile to the dead end. Dressed in a knee-length black coat and a white knit hat and scarf, a woman passenger gets out. All she has with her is a diaper bag, a black suitcase on wheels — and an infant bundled in a fleece onesie.
She doesn’t want to speak with journalists, but she seems to understand some English.
She hugs the baby to her chest and with her free hand pulls behind the suitcase. As she moves toward the ditch, several Canadian police officers approach on their side, and speak to her.
“You have to go through the custom, ah, border, but if you do cross here, you’ll be arrested, and then we’ll take you in charge. OK?”
The woman nods, seeming to understand that she will be arrested, and she steps towards them. The Canadian policeman offers to carry her baby as she makes her way through the slippery snow path. She hands him the child, and then takes the hand of the other officer who helps her to the road on the Canadian side.
The police bring out a child car seat, and place it into the vehicle.

July 18, 2016
Pamela Geller is an explosive figure who is not daunted by the “politically correct.” In particular, when it comes to discussing the reality of violent Islamic extremism – her bailiwick – she is not only vocal, but relentless.
Only, Facebook can’t seem to handle the truths that she and her supporters put forth. So the world’s biggest social media site tends to block, remove and ban people and posts on the subject, which its censors find injurious to their consciences. And that includes Geller.
Well, Geller has had enough of it. So she’s taking the social media behemoth to court.
In a column she wrote for Breitbart, she explained, in detail, why she’s taking legal action. In a nutshell, she’s tired of being treated like women are treated in Islamic countries.
“Every day I received emails from readers and members of my various Facebook groups, asking for help after having been blocked for posting a story or comment that might offend Muslims,” she wrote. “This is America, not Saudi Arabia. Enough. I am suing.”
‘Most brutal ideology’
She stated further that she is being assisted by the American Freedom Law Center, or AFLC, a Judeo-Christian law firm, and that she filed suit in recent days in the U.S. District Court for the District of Columbia. The suit, which was brought on behalf of Geller, the group Jihad Watch, Robert Spencer (director of Jihad Watch) and the American Freedom Defense Initiative, challenges Section 230 of the Communications Decency Act under the First Amendment.
In a press release, AFLC stated that, “Section 230 provides immunity from lawsuits to Facebook, Twitter, and YouTube, thereby permitting these social media giants to engage in government-sanctioned censorship and discriminatory business practices free from legal challenge.”
The AFLC explained that Geller and Spencer, together with the organizations that they operate, are regularly subjected to discrimination by social media sites including Facebook, YouTube and Twitter, because of their beliefs and views that radical Islam is dangerous and deadly. The social media sites, the organization said, view such truths as offensive to Muslims, though clearly Geller and Spencer are not singling out Muslims in general, but rather the radical elements within it.
“Such discrimination, which is largely religion-based in that these California businesses are favoring adherents of Islam over those who are not, is prohibited in many states, but particularly in California by the state’s anti-discrimination law, which is broadly construed to prohibit all forms of discrimination,” the AFLC said. “However, because of the immunity granted by the federal government, Facebook, Twitter, and YouTube are free to engage in their otherwise unlawful, discriminatory practices.”
Geller says that she has been documenting Facebook’s “outrageous bias” for a number of years. She said that her documentation shows that Facebook is “notoriously one-sided” in the way it views those who oppose terrorism and who voice support for Israel. Geller also noted that her stance against what she has called “the most brutal and extreme ideology” on the planet – namely, Islam-based sharia law – has consistently been blocked or banned.
Not ‘obscene,’ just honest
In June, she said, the social media giant took down a Facebook page she had established in the wake of the ISIS-inspired terrorist attack on a gay nightclub in Orlando, Fla., because censors claimed it contained “hateful, obscene, or threatening” content. But, she said, opposing violent terrorist acts should not be considered any of those things. Neither should pointing out the obvious – that the act, and so many others before it, was committed by a radical terrorist who stated plainly before he was killed by police that he acted in the name of Islam.
“What is hateful, obscene and threatening is that Facebook is moving to silence everyone who speaks honestly about the motivating ideology behind such attacks,” she wrote.
Natural News readers are well aware of Facebook’s censorship. We have reported in the past that the social media site bans or blocks many alternative media outlets, holistic health products and other non-standard content, preferring instead to push a globalist agenda.
“This is so typical of the elites. They control policy, they control the media, they control the culture — but they can’t control the people. And this makes them crazy. If they could, they would change the people,” Geller wrote.
She is right, of course.

As a family there are things we want to share… and things we do not want to share (like viruses). You probably already know that:
Families with kids get more colds than those without (in fact 5 times more).
Kids bring colds into families and the cycle of colds spreads throughout the family.
Kids leave tissues lying around the house.
Cold and flu viruses are highly contagious and live up to 48 hours outside the human body.
The Kleenex brand story
It began as a disposable cleansing tissue for removing cold cream. By promoting it as a cleaner, healthier alternative to towels and handkerchiefs it quickly became a mainstay in households across the nation. Learn the complete story of how the Kleenex® brand took over the world of facial tissues.

I like to end my days with a bit of ritual. At 4pm I tend to have tea with a savory treat. It holds me over until dinner and is an excellent way of winding down my day. But after living in England a few years, I developed a preference for loose tea and make myself a fresh cuppa with either English Breakfast, Earl Grey, Apricot or Apple / Cinnamon pending on my mood. I needed to tidy up my collection of teas. They were in little bags tucked into a drawer. I bought a selection of jars with clamp lids that fit on my spice rack. I used Etchall crème to etch the ingredients onto the jar. As English Breakfast was too long for the jar, so I went by TEA. Earl Grey is just EARL. Apricot is AAA. You get the idea. These jars are perfect for anything you may purchase in bulk and are easy to mark with Etchall.
You will Need:
mini roll of Duck Tape
Plastic Knife or small squeegee
plastic trash bag
Clean the surface of the glass with alcohol. This removes fingerprints and other oils from the surface of the glass.
Mask off the rectangle using DuckTape. Use the back of a spoon to push the tape securely into place. Reclean the interior of the rectangle with alcohol. Apply the letters. Push them firmly into place with the back of the spoon.
Lay the jar down. Mine are rectangular, so they don't roll around. Apply a small scoop of the crème over the surface of the masked area. Run the squeegee or plastic knife over the surface to make it even and in each tight angle. You want the letters fully covered with a thick layer.
Wait 15 minutes for the magic to work. Use the squeegee to scoop up the excess and return to the jar. It can be reused! Waste not, want not! Wipe off what remains with a paper towel. Try not smear any onto the rest of the glass.
Use the Xacto knife to help remove the letters. Remove the tape. And rinse off the jar. I had no tape residue. If you have some, use nail polish remover to take it off. Hand wash and allow to air dry. This is due to the metal clamp and plastic ring aren't really dishwasher safe.
Check out the Etchall website for my project ideas, be sure to sign up for their newsletter!
A few tips and tricks:
I obtained my letters from an office supply store. The craft stores tend to carry paper letters, which won't block the crème. The bottles were obtained at Michaels. The letters at Office Depot. I also tested the lettering and blocking on an upcycled test jar to perfect my technique. It's now my sugar container. 🙂

Sydney's nine-minute warning: How Parramatta would have mere moments to evacuate if the suburb was hit by a supercell storm and devastating flash floods
- Parramatta residents have little warning to evacuate in catastrophic flooding
- Would have nine minutes to evacuate in the event of a severe super-cell storm
- Dire warning for Sydney's second CBD comes from NSW SES senior experts
- Parramatta councillor says the council already mitigates the city's flood risk
Residents in Sydney's second-largest CBD would have little warning to evacuate if the city was inundated with catastrophic flash flooding, an emergency service expert has warned.
If a severe super-cell storm was to hit Parramatta in the city's west without notice, residents would have just nine minutes to evacuate before floodwaters swamp the city's centre.
That warning could be extended to two hours in the best case scenarios where imminent flooding can be predicted, according to NSW State Emergency Risk Reduction and Avoidance Senior Manager George Jeoffreys.
Experts fear residents would have little time to evacuate if Parramatta was hit with catastrophic flash flooding. Pictured is Parramatta ferry wharf after heavy rain
NSW SES volunteers rescued multiple motorists trapped in flash flooding when 60 millimetres of rain drenched Parramatta in the space of three hours earlier this month.
But that's minor flooding compared to the catastrophe that could happen, where emergency workers could be faced with the daunting task of rescuing residents from one to two storeys of fast-flowing floodwater.
'The risk is the inability to get people out,' Mr Jeoffreys told Fairfax Media.
'We wouldn't have time to evacuate. It becomes a major rescue operation.'
Residents would have nine minutes to evacuate the Parramatta CBD if a severe super-cell hit without warning. Pictured is the flooded riverbank in 2016 after heavy rain
Experts claim the the city's flood risks have been ignored by government and council authorities as they plan to transform Parramatta into Sydney’s second city centre.
'The only thing we can do is negotiate within the existing planning scheme to try and get better outcomes,' NSW SES Senior Planning Coordinator Marcus Morgan told Fairfax Media.
The Greater Sydney Commission said flooding was an important factor in planning for growth in Parramatta.
Regarded as Sydney's second CBD, Parramatta (pictured) is also prone to flooding
The nine minute evacuation warning was news to Parramatta councillor Steven Issa.
'I'd be keen to understand who engaged these experts, what they were referencing and what they're trying to achieve,' Cr Issa told Daily Mail Australia.
'I'm no flood expert but the council already has early warnings in place to warn residents, including flood water censors up and down the Parramatta River. The council has also developed a virtual reality flooding incident to help residents prepare for when a mass flooding event occurs.'
SES experts fear emergency workers would be faced with the daunting task of rescuing residents from one to two storeys of fast-flowing floodwater in the worst case scenarios
Cr Issa said the local council already mitigates Parramatta's flood risk with a 'multi-pronged' approach' to planning controls.
The council has developed a FloodSmart Parramatta program which aims to provide the community with vital information to understand flood risk in their area.
'The Parramatta River catchment has 28 river level and rain gauges which provide information about what the current conditions are,' the council website states.
'To forecast what will happen in the future, FloodSmart Parramatta uses Bureau of Meteorology products. All the data is run through a flood model to predict where and when flooding may occur.'

When you are ordered to pay child support, there are severe consequences if you don’t make your payments. You could have your license suspended, you could be incarcerated, and the court could order your bank to give the Office of Child Support Enforcement all the funds in your bank account.
A lien may be filed on properties, bank accounts, retirement plans, life insurance plans, personal injury claims, insurance settlements or awards, and other assets if a noncustodial parent fails to pay their child support. – TX Office of the Attorney General
In this post, we will explore the legal frameworks governing child support enforcement, and the circumstances under which they may seize funds from your bank account. By understanding the consequences of not paying child support, you can take the steps necessary to ensure your financial stability and avoid any legal problems.
Legal Obligations of Child Support
Child support is a legal obligation that ensures the financial well-being of a child whose parents are separated or divorced. It is a crucial aspect of providing for the needs and welfare of the child, including their education, healthcare, and overall upbringing. The primary purpose of child support is to ensure that both parents contribute fairly and proportionally to the financial support of their child.
One of the potential consequences of non-payment is the ability for child support agencies to seize funds from a parent’s bank account. This can happen when a parent falls behind on their child support payments and other enforcement measures, such as wage garnishment, have been unsuccessful. The child support agency may obtain a court order to freeze the delinquent parent’s bank account and withdraw funds to fulfill the outstanding child support obligations.
Child support agencies have the authority to take such actions to enforce compliance. This underscores the importance of fulfilling child support obligations in a timely manner. By meeting these obligations, parents can not only avoid potential legal and financial consequences but also contribute to the well-being and upbringing of their children.
Can child support agencies seize funds from your bank account?
Child support is a vital aspect of ensuring the well-being and upbringing of children. However, there may be instances where a parent falls behind on their child support payments, leading to questions about the consequences and potential actions that child support agencies can take.
One common concern is whether child support agencies have the authority to seize funds directly from a parent’s bank account. The answer to this question varies depending on the jurisdiction and specific circumstances. In many cases, child support agencies have the legal authority to take action to collect outstanding child support payments.
Child support agencies typically follow specific guidelines and procedures when utilizing bank account garnishment. They must comply with applicable laws and regulations to ensure fairness and protect the rights of the individuals involved.
When a parent falls behind on child support, the agency responsible for enforcing child support orders may initiate various collection methods. One such method is the ability to seize funds from a parent’s bank account. This is often done through a process known as bank account garnishment.
Bank account garnishment, also known as bank levy, allows child support agencies to legally access a parent’s bank account and withdraw funds to satisfy the outstanding child support debt. To execute this process, the agency typically needs a court order or an administrative order, depending on the jurisdiction’s regulations.
How does the process work?
Understanding how the process of seizing funds from your bank account for child support works is crucial for anyone facing this situation. When child support payments are not made as ordered by the court, state child support enforcement agencies have the authority to take action.
Notice of Intent
The process typically starts with the enforcement agency issuing a notice of intent to seize funds. This notice informs the noncustodial parent that their bank account will be frozen and that funds will be taken to satisfy the child support debt. It is important to note that this process varies from state to state, so it is essential to familiarize yourself with the specific laws and regulations in your jurisdiction.
Challenge or Negotiate
Once the notice is received, the noncustodial parent has the opportunity to challenge the seizure or negotiate a resolution. This may involve providing evidence of financial hardship or requesting a modification of the child support order. It is essential to consult with a family law attorney or seek guidance from a legal aid organization to understand your rights and explore available options.
Placed on Hold
If no action is taken by the noncustodial parent, the enforcement agency proceeds with freezing the bank account. This means that the funds in the account are placed on hold, and the agency can withdraw the necessary amount to satisfy the child support debt. It is essential to keep in mind that there are legal limits on the amount that can be seized, ensuring that the noncustodial parent has enough funds for basic living expenses.
Once the funds are seized, they are typically transferred to the custodial parent or held by the state child support agency, depending on the specific circumstances. The seized funds are then applied towards the outstanding child support debt, helping to ensure that the custodial parent receives the financial support they are entitled to.
Can Child Support Garnish Your Bank Account?
This is what happened in the case, Kelly v. Montgomery County Office of Child Support Enforcement. 227 Md. App. 106. Byron Kelly was $9,866.80 behind in child support payments. The Office of Child Support Enforcement sought to collect part of this amount by issuing a writ of garnishment to Capital One Bank, N.A. Kelly had two accounts at Capital One Bank in his name with a combined balance of $2, 705.05. The Bank was required therefore to give this money to the Office of Child Support Enforcement.
The Maryland Family Law Article § 10-108.3(b)(1) reads in pertinent part:
“If an obligor [who is more than $5000.00 in arrears in child support payments] has not paid child support for more than 60 days, the Administration may institute an action to attach and seize the amount of the arrearage in one or more of the accounts of the obligor with a financial institution to satisfy the amount of arrearage owed by the obligor.” 227 Md. App. at 111.
However, Kelly had a problem with this because he believed the money in his accounts at Capital One Bank should be exempt. He believed this because the Courts and Judicial Proceedings Article § 11-504 (b)(5) “permits a judgment debtor under certain circumstances to elect to exempt up to $6,000 in cash or other property from a levy to satisfy a money judgment.” 227 Md. App. 108. This is exactly what Kelly wanted to do. Kelly admitted that he owed a large sum of money in child support, but argued that this particular money (the money in the bank accounts) should be exempt from collection. However, the court found that he was not able to hold this exemption, because he was not a “debtor”, but instead an “obligor.”
So what exactly is the difference between a “debtor” and an “obligor”? The Court of Special Appeals discussed that a “debtor” is someone who owes money to another, while an “obligor” is someone “who must pay money arising out of a separate and separately enforceable legal duty.” 227 Md. App. 112.
The Court “held that exemptions permitting judgment debtor to exempt personal property from levy did not apply to efforts to collect unpaid child support from obligor.” 227 Md. App. 106.
The court goes on to discuss that one of the reasons, exemptions are in place for “debtors” is to protect the family unit and make sure that the family has means available to provide for themselves. The court explained that if they were to apply the exemption to child support payments, they would be doing just the opposite of what the purpose of the exemption meant to do. There is a strong public policy to look out for the best interests of the child and this decision does just that.
Factors that may lead to child support agencies seizing funds
There are several factors that can contribute to child support agencies seizing funds from your bank account. Understanding these factors is crucial to staying informed and prepared in case this situation arises.
- Non-payment or overdue payments: The most common reason for child support agencies to take action is non-payment or consistently overdue payments. If you fail to meet your child support obligations, the agency may resort to seizing funds from your bank account to ensure the financial well-being of the child.
- Ignoring court orders: If you disregard court orders related to child support payments, it can lead to serious consequences. Child support agencies have the authority to take legal action and seize funds from your bank account as a means of enforcing compliance with these court orders.
- Accumulated arrears: When child support payments are consistently missed, arrears can start to accumulate. These are the unpaid or overdue amounts that you owe. If the arrears reach a certain threshold, the child support agency may take more aggressive measures, such as seizing funds from your bank account, to recover the owed amount.
- Lack of communication or cooperation: Failure to communicate or cooperate with the child support agency can also increase the likelihood of funds being seized. It is essential to maintain open lines of communication and promptly address any concerns or changes in your financial situation to avoid escalating the situation.
- Other legal obligations: Keep in mind that child support agencies prioritize the well-being of the child, and if you have other legal obligations or debts, they may prioritize child support over other financial obligations. This means that even if you have other financial responsibilities, child support agencies can still seize funds from your bank account to fulfill the child support obligations.
Steps to take if your bank account is seized for child support
If your bank account has been seized for child support, it is important to take immediate action to address the situation. While it can be a distressing experience, understanding the steps you can take will help you navigate through this challenging time.
- Contact your bank: The first step is to contact your bank as soon as you become aware of the account seizure. Speak with a representative who can provide you with information about the specific circumstances and process involved.
- Understand the reason for the seizure: It is crucial to understand why your bank account has been seized for child support. This could be due to unpaid child support obligations or a legal action taken against you by the custodial parent or child support enforcement agency. Understanding the underlying reason will help you determine the best course of action.
- Gather necessary documentation: Collect all relevant documentation related to your child support payments, including payment receipts, court orders, and any communication with the child support agency. Having these documents readily available will assist you in presenting your case and resolving the issue promptly.
- Communicate with the child support agency: Reach out to the child support agency or the appropriate legal authority to discuss the situation. Explain your circumstances, provide any necessary documentation, and inquire about potential options for resolving the issue. Open and honest communication is key to finding a resolution.
- Seek legal advice if necessary: Depending on the complexity of your case, it may be beneficial to consult with a family law attorney who specializes in child support matters. They can provide guidance on your rights, responsibilities, and the best approach to resolving the situation.
- Negotiate a payment plan: If you are unable to pay the entire outstanding child support amount at once, you may be able to negotiate a payment plan with the child support agency or the custodial parent. Demonstrating your willingness to fulfill your financial obligations can help in reaching a mutually acceptable agreement.
- Comply with court orders: It is essential to comply with any court orders related to child support payments. Failure to do so can lead to further legal consequences, including additional account seizures or even potential jail time.
Legal Rights and Protections
It is crucial to understand your legal rights and protections if you find yourself facing the possibility of child support seizing funds from your bank account. While child support enforcement agencies have the authority to take action to collect overdue payments, there are certain safeguards in place to protect individuals.
Child support agencies must follow the appropriate legal procedures and obtain a court order before seizing funds from your bank account. This ensures that the process is fair and transparent, giving you the opportunity to present your case and dispute any discrepancies.
In some cases, you may be eligible for exemptions or protections under state laws. These exemptions can vary depending on your circumstances, such as your income level, essential living expenses, and the number of dependents you have. It is crucial to familiarize yourself with the laws in your jurisdiction to understand the specific rights and protections available to you.
Maintain open lines of communication with the child support agency. By staying informed about your obligations and working towards a resolution, you may be able to negotiate alternative payment arrangements or seek a modification of the existing child support order. Engaging in proactive communication can help protect your rights and potentially prevent the seizure of funds from your bank account.
Seeking legal counsel is highly recommended if you are facing a bank account seizure for child support payments. An experienced attorney can provide guidance, review your case, and help you navigate the legal process. They can ensure that your rights are protected, advocate for your best interests, and work towards a fair resolution.
FAQs on Bank Levies & Child Support
Can the IRS take money from your bank account for child support?
Yes, the IRS can take money from your bank account for unpaid child support. Generally, this process involves the issuance of a Federal Tax Refund Offset to recover any delinquent payments by deducting from the taxpayer’s federal tax refund. States have their own laws and procedures that may be used to recoup unpaid child support payments.
Can child support take money from your Cash App?
Generally speaking, it is not possible for child support agencies to access funds held through Cash App, as it is a payment service that specializes in peer-to-peer transactions. However, it is important to note that if your employer deposits wages directly to your Cash App account, then those funds may be subject to garnishment.
How far behind in child support before a warrant is issued in Texas?
In the state of Texas, an individual who is delinquent in child support payments is considered to be in contempt of court if the child support due is greater than $5000 or is past due for more than two months. At this point, a warrant may be issued by the court requiring the individual either to appear before the court or pay delinquency fees.
Can child support take money from your bank account without permission in Texas?
Generally speaking, no one can take money from another person’s bank account without permission in the state of Texas. If a party feels they are owed child support, then they must file a motion with the court in order for the matter to be addressed legally. Once the court has ruled on the case, any attempts to take funds from a bank account contrary to such ruling could be considered criminal activity.
Can the government take money out of your bank account without your permission?
Generally speaking, the government cannot take money out of someone’s bank account without permission. However, under certain circumstances, the government can be authorized to issue certain forms of levies directly against an individual’s financial accounts. Examples include unpaid income taxes or back child support payments.
What accounts can the IRS not touch?
The IRS cannot directly levy or seize some types of financial accounts. This includes but is not limited to retirement accounts such as 401(k)s, IRAs, Keogh plans, and TSPs; health savings accounts (HSAs); and certain life insurance policies. Additionally, Social Security benefits, survivor benefits, and VA disability payments are generally exempt from taxation and seizure.
Can someone take money from my bank account through Cash App?
Generally speaking, it is not possible for someone to directly access funds held through Cash App unless they are provided with a user PIN or authentication security code. Furthermore, access must also be granted from within the Cash App itself for any debt recovery or garnishment actions to take place.
Can Cash App balance be garnished?
It is not typically possible for a Cash App balance to be garnished directly. However, employers may deposit wages directly into a Cash App account instead of placing them in a traditional banking institution, which would potentially allow a party to seek garnishment of those wages if related laws were violated.
How does child support find your bank account?
Child support can access information regarding a payor’s bank accounts through a court order. They may also receive documents or records from employers and financial institutions, which can provide more details. Additionally, the Texas Attorney General’s Office possesses the authority to request verification of an individual’s income and assets, which could include bank account information.
Can child support take money out of your bank account?
Yes, it is possible for child support to withdraw money from an individual’s bank account via court-ordered garnishment. This means that funds in your account will be frozen until the full amount of your owed child support is paid.
How long can child support freeze your bank account?
Depending on the amount of owed child support, a bank account may remain frozen for up to 6 months. During this time, you will be unable to access any of the funds deposited within it. However, after the total amount has been paid, the bank may release the funds prior to the end of that period.
Can child support take money from Venmo?
Generally speaking, it is not possible for child support agencies to access funds held through Venmo, as it is a payment service that specializes in peer-to-peer transactions. If your employer deposits wages directly into your Venmo account, however, then those funds may be subject to garnishment depending on applicable laws and regulations.
Who pays the most child support?
Generally speaking, those who earn higher salaries tend to pay more in child support than those who earn lower incomes. That being said, each state has its own criteria for the calculation of child support payments, which may include factors such as parents’ income level, number of children residing with each parent, and any extenuating circumstances that are pertinent to the case at hand.
How do I legally not pay child support in Texas?
The only way to legally avoid paying child support in the state of Texas is by obtaining a court order rescinding or terminating such support obligations. Such orders may be obtained upon demonstrating proof of disability or other extenuating financial hardship or demonstrating that the child in question has reached adulthood and/or is now self-sufficient.
Can child support garnish your bank account in Texas?
Yes, it is possible for child support agencies to issue levies against individuals’ financial accounts in order to recoup overdue payments. To do so lawfully, however, requires that the agency secure a writ of garnishment and confirmation from the court before taking action.
Does IRS check bank accounts?
The IRS may sometimes use information reported on taxpayers’ returns to check bank accounts and balances; however, they generally do not have unrestricted access to such information without legal authorization or justification, such as suspicion of criminal activity or suspected fraud.
Will IRS take my refund if my husband owes child support?
Yes, it is possible for the IRS to issue a Federal Tax Refund Offset in order to recover any delinquent payments of child support owed by an individual taxpayer’s spouse. This process involves deducting money from the taxpayer’s federal tax refund until all delinquent amounts are satisfied.
What is the maximum percentage the IRS can garnish?
According to federal law, the maximum amount that can be garnished from an individual’s wages by the IRS is 60%. That being said, some states may require or allow lesser amounts depending on specific cases and circumstances; thus it is important to consult with legal counsel prior to making any determinations regarding garnishment amounts.

It is recommended to consult with a family law attorney who specializes in child support cases. They can provide you with expert advice tailored to your specific situation and help you understand your rights and options.

This remains one of my favorite October moments: Game 7 of the 2006 National League Championship Series at Shea Stadium in New York, with a rookie pitcher named Adam Wainwright staring down Mets slugger Carlos Beltran. It’s the bottom of the ninth, and catcher Yadier Molina had just hit a 2-run homer in the top half of the inning to break a 1-1 tie. The Cardinals were now one out away from a trip to the World Series.
But the bases were loaded and it was Beltran, known as a killer of Cardinals postseason dreams, looking menacing at the plate with two outs and two strikes.
You might remember that moment. It was a Thursday, well after 10 p.m. on a school night, but who was going to send the kids to bed? It was baseball, October baseball, and despite a pretty successful postseason run in the new century, the Cardinals hadn’t won it all since 1982. And then Wainwright threw that wicked curveball that froze Beltran, and the Cardinals were on their way to Detroit and a 5-game World Series win over the Tigers.
Wainwright and Molina. Molina and Wainwright. That night was a glimpse of what was to come in October postseasons for the next nine years, but who knew that back in 2006? Not me, and not a 9-year-old fourth grader.
“I remember it well,” said Jack, who’s now 22, out of college and living with mom and dad for just a few more months.
“Yadi leaped into Wainwright’s arms. And we didn’t have to ask to stay up for any of those games. It was just understood,” he said.
My apologies to his fourth-grade teachers, but it was October baseball.
And now here we are again, back in another postseason after what seems like a drought (although it’s only been four years). And the most famous battery in Cardinals history is still wearing the Birds on the Bat. Baseball has an uncanny way of making time stand still.
Meanwhile, I still have a YouTube clip of that 2006 moment bookmarked on my computer. It became my workplace happy place, a video that could put a smile on my face every single time. A few years later, it was replaced by a 2011 clip of David Freese hitting the most famous homer in Busch Stadium history. Most recently, I watch a bunch of NHL players in blue jumping onto the ice as an announcer counts down the seconds.
Some days, I want to watch all three.
Maybe there’ll be another moment this October. Either way, it’s fun to share another St. Louis sports experience with my 22-year-old son. Now, he not only gets up off the couch to get himself a beer; he brings me one, too.

In less than 10 years, specifically on April 13, 2029, the date estimated by NASA for an asteroid 1,115 feet wide may pass very close to Earth but without impact. This space body, named as Apophis in honor of an Egyptian God of Death, will approach 19,000 miles from our planet, a very close distance that represents a special moment for astronomers.
Even NASA described this as “an incredible opportunity for science“. This was stated by Marina Brozovi, a scientist working at the Jet Propulsion Laboratory (JPL) of the US space agency. Apophis was discovered in 2004 by a team from the National Observatory of Kitt Peak (Arizona, USA). The Space Agency created a video in which it shows the path that the asteroid will make when it passes through the Earth.
In fact, during the 2019 Planetary Defense Conference held in Maryland, the observation plans and scientific opportunities of a celestial event began to be discussed for which there is still a decade to go. In addition, the possibility of sending a mission to the asteroid was raised.
According to NASA, such a large object passing close to Earth is a relatively rare phenomenon. At first glance, Apophis will be visualized as a bright point of light.
“By observing Apophis during its flyby in 2029, we will gain important scientific knowledge that could one day be used for planetary defense,” added Paul Chodas, director of the Center for Near-Earth Studies.
Apophis is one of the approximately 2,000 potentially dangerous asteroids known today. However, the possibility of it coming dangerously close ” is a threat that could happen, although it is very unlikely, ” reassured NPR network Paul Chodas, director of the Center for Near-Earth Objective Studies at NASA.

Wellpoint to sell 1-800-Contacts, cites Obamacare
Send this story to a friend
WellPoint Inc. (NYSE: WLP) will sell its 1-800 CONTACTS subsidiary to private-equity firm Thomas H. Lee Partners, according to a news release. Further, the company has entered into agreements to sell assets Glasses.com and a “virtual try-on” technology to an Italian firm, Luxottica Group.
Each transaction is expected to close during the first quarter of 2014. The sale prices were not disclosed.
Wellpoint is a chief competitor of Louisville-based Humana Inc. (NYSE: HUM). It also has major operations in Louisville for its Anthem Blue Cross and Blue Shield in Kentucky subsidiary.
Wellpoint had just purchased 1-800 Contacts in 2012 for about $900 million, according to the Wall Street Journal.
“1-800 CONTACTS has strong brand recognition and a leading direct-to-consumer model,” WellPoint CEO Joseph R. Swedish said in the release. “However, as we prepare for the coming changes to the health care system, we are focused on our core growth opportunities across both our commercial and government business segments,” the release said.
I wrote about WellPoint’s government business growth last year, when the company landed a Medicaid contract with the state of Kentucky.

Fortnite Battle Royale Goes Free For Everyone On Sept. 26
It seems like Fortnite is going with the old H1Z1 model for their new Battle Royale mode. In what I can only call a stunning move from Epic Games the almost brand new Fortnite battle royale mode is going to be free to play Starting September 26th.
Today, Epic Games has some exciting news: on September 26, Fortnite Battle Royale will be free for everyone on PC, PlayStation 4, Xbox One and Mac. This PvP mode puts 100-players on a giant map with destructible environments, where they’ll combine their Fortnite building and combat skills to be the last one standing.
Fortnite is the EPIC games answer to survival strategy, you drop in to world where you can harvest materials, build shelters, and then defend against zombies. Most media who reviewed the games described it as medicore at best. But, the new battle royale mode, which drops players in and gives them a chance for random loot and random item finds, is described as being “very fun” by most of my friends.
The survival and building lend themselves well to the whole battleroyal sytle of game, no cover? Just build some. You can even use building materials to make a base to hole up in, just be carefull becuase the enemies can break your base down! Overall the 100 player mode seems like a great addition, and now everyone (even those with out the base game) will be able to give it a try.

text: Coal fell by nearly 8 per cent on Wednesday amid fears of a China slowdown and its attempted takeover of small-cap coal miner Coalworks. Its shares have shed more than 16 per cent over the year and strategists are warning on the outlook for many resource stocks. The company launched its bid for Coalworks on May 7, offering shareholders $1 for each share. In its statement Whitehaven said the offer put a 17 per cent premium on Coalwork’s last closing price and that Coalwork’s assets could be developed more efficiently in combination with Whitehaven’s, as its projects were capital intensive. Coalwork’s board advised its shareholders to reject Whitehaven’s offer, which it believed was opportunistic, as it did not reflect the inherent value of its assets and their growth potential. The offer also undervalued the synergistic benefits of a takeover, it said.

The news is rife with information about ‘challenger banks’ and how they are currently overtaking the big household names in banking. We want to find out the full story and see if this growth will continue to flourish or if the big banks will swing the scales back into their favour.
What is a challenger bank and why is it important?
Challenger banks have been around for some time, but lately they’ve been growing in popularity with several even overtaking the performance of the top international banks like the ‘Big Five’: HSBC, Lloyds, Barclays, RBS and Santander – hence the name ‘challenger banks’.
It seems, then, that the big banks are slipping in popularity, and according to advisory firm, KPMG, the figures look to be backing it up:
The smaller banks in the ‘challenger’ category, which include Metro, Aldermore and OneSavings reported a 17% return on equity in 2016, as opposed to larger challenger banks like Virgin Money and TSB which reported a smaller 9.5% ROE last year.
However, both of these groups had significantly superior returns to the Big 5 banks, who delivered an ROE of just 4.6%, almost 50% less than the lowest challenger bank. This is big news for banking.
Why are people choosing challenger banks?
It’s not luck that has had these challenger banks rising up to overtake the big banks, but competitive services, low cost income ratios, as well as by offering attractive rates to consumers and small businesses, ultimately giving them more for their money.
By taking advantage of the current rates of lending growth, as well as focussing on niche financial services, these challenger banks have increased the competition and put a big dent in the current margins offered by bigger banks, meaning that these household names will eventually have to adjust their offerings if they are to keep their place at the top of the banking world.
So, what does this mean for the big banks?
Well, it’s obviously not great news for the big banks, who’ve held their position at the top of the financial lending sector for, well, forever.
But it’s no surprise really, when the big banks have been relying on their status as un-challenged household names until now. There’s clearly a reason why people have begun to switch to lesser known banks, and these challenger banks have come at a time when the economy is uncertain and consumers want to get the most for their money.
Though it’s not all bad news for the big banks and their customers. With the challenger bank shake-up in full swing, the big banks have had to change the way they work, offering new incentives to customers like Barclays’ Digital Eagles, a project aimed at customers who need help learning the ins and outs of the world wide web, and RBS’ Entrepreneurial Spark, which offers events and tools designed to help entrepreneurs meet their business goals.
It seems, then, that the big banks are finally starting to bring their ‘A game’ to compete with the challenger banks – great news for customers who could do with a little extra help from their financial providers.
But can it last forever?
While some of these challenger banks will make it in the long term, no doubt many will also struggle, particularly when the already changeable economy adjusts. Many of these new banks have emerged in a time of low interest rates, but what will happen when the rates rise again?
While these new digital banks have the upper hand when it comes to costs, they also have innovative processes and a relatively clear track record of past misselling on their side, unlike some of the nation leading banks, but the profits are still a long way behind the Big Five, who reported a gigantic £5.6bn profit increase last year, compared to just £194m from the challengers.
Will the challenger banks make it, or will they eventually be bought out by the big banks, once they close the gap on the competition and the economy levels out again? It remains to be seen.
For now, we’ll just have to wait and see what the next chapter of banking holds, whether the Big Five can keep their place at the top, or if these ‘challenger banks’ will become the next set of household names. Either way, Grovelands will let you know.

The manager of Ramzan Sugar Mills was offloaded from a Dubai-bound flight by FIA officials on Monday and handed over to the National Accountability Bureau.
Mohammad Mushtaq’s name had been placed on the Exit Control list at NAB’s request. According to sources, Mushtaq was trying to board a Pakistan International Airlines flight PK-203 from Lahore to Dubai at the time of his arrest.
Mushtaq in the past had transferred around Rs6 million into Salman Shehbaz’s account and he is also said to be the front man for the Sharif family. It has also been learnt that after NAB's attempt to arrest Punjab Assembly Opposition Leader Hamza Shehbaz from Lahore’s Model Town, Mushtaq decided to go underground.
LHC stops NAB from arresting Hamza till Monday
Just today, fearing arrest from NAB, Hamza reached the Lahore High Court (LHC) seeking pre-arrest bail in the money laundering and assets beyond income cases.
During an important meeting of NAB officers and special advocates, matters pertaining to Hamza’s case in the LHC were reviewed.
According to NAB sources, the anti-graft watchdog has prepared a charge sheet against Hamza Shehbaz, which accuses the PML-N leader of money laundering.
Sharif family meets at Jati Umra
“Millions of dollars were transferred to his accounts through fake accounts, increasing the Pakistan Muslim League-Nawaz (PML-N) leader’s assets by 200pc.” NAB sources say it is important to arrest and investigate Hamza as they fear that he “may tamper with the records”.
LHC on Saturday stopped the anti-graft watchdog from arresting Punjab Assembly Opposition leader after granting a pre-arrest bail till today.
A NAB team on Friday raided the residence of PML-N President Shehbaz Sharif in the Model Town area of Lahore to arrest his son, Hamza, in connection with cases of alleged graft. However, the PML-N activists and private guards allegedly prevented the team from taking away Hamza.

KIEV, Ukraine—Ukraine's State Property fund says it has sold state telecommunications company Ukrtelecom for $1.3 billion to an Austrian investment firm.
The agency said Friday that Epic, a Vienna-based privatization and investment company, purchased some 93 percent of the fixed-line operator. The long-overdue sale had been postponed for years due to political infighting.
The government had planned to sell Ukrtelecom in an auction late last year, but Epic turned out to be the only bidder and the government opted for a direct sale.
Analysts said Epic will have to make major investments into the company to make it effective at a time when Ukrainians are increasingly switching from fixed-line to mobile phones.

'Big Brother': Does Enzo deserve to win? Fans say no because he played in Cody's shadow and voted Memphis out
Memphis Garrett was eliminated on Thursday's episode of 'Big Brother' Season 22. Fans are elated that he's out of the race but they seem to be passionately hating on the fact that Enzo Palumbo went with what the house decided and didn't play the "big game moves" he keeps talking about all the time.
Not only were viewers surprised by Enzo's move, even Memphis was shocked. In his exit interview, he told host Julie Chen that he'd take Enzo and Cody to the finale if he were around. "I felt blindsided," he said while acknowledging that it was a game after all and someone had to be voted out. Even though he trusted the Wise Guys alliance, which includes Cody Calafiore, Enzo and him, he read the room on the day of the elimination and felt the vibe had changed.
"They looked at me more of a threat. Christmas is a good player, she may have had some stuff she was peddling them. I feel blindsided, I would have kept the wise guys alliance till the end," he told Julie.
Meanwhile, fans thought that Enzo has played in Cody's shadow and therefore, doesn't deserve to win. "Enzo has no real gameplay. Time after time he has disappointed. All talk no action," a fan commented on the show's official Facebook page while another echoed: "Enzo is such a coward. Never follows through with these big game moves he talks about!"
"I knew Enzo was going to vote for Memphis; he's all talk. I hope Xmas wins the HOH & Veto," a user pointed out. "Ugh. Enzo does whatever Cody tells him. He does not deserve to win. He’s been carried all season long. #BB22," a user tweeted while another posted: "This season sucks but I truly HATE ENZO for making it more boring with false promises to make a big move #BB22."
"I just don’t see Enzo winning because I feel like he’s played in Cody’s shadow this entire season. He waited too late to play his own game. #bb22," a viewer expressed.

Woot.com expanding with new South City office
- Lisa R. Brown
Woot.com, an Internet retailer best known for selling a single item on its Web site daily, is expanding to new office space in south St. Louis.
Dallas-based Woot.com has leased 8,000 square feet of space at 3030 S. Grand, across the street from Tower Grove Park. Woot.com and several affiliated businesses initially will employ 12 people at the South City building. Woot.com moved there this month from smaller space elsewhere in the Tower Grove neighborhood.
“Eventually the building will allow us to have 24 people,” said Dave Rutledge, president of Woot.com subsidiary Woot Workshop.
Woot.com specializes in selling electronics, but its affiliated Web sites sell T-shirts, wine and children’s toys. Woot.com was ranked 25th on Inc. Magazine’s list of fastest-growing companies in the U.S. for growing its revenue from $2.3 million in 2004 to $117.4 million in 2007. Woot.com’s 2008 revenue was $164 million.
Dave Rutledge’s brother, Woot.com CEO Matt Rutledge, recruited him from St. Louis-based Asynchrony Solutions to open the St. Louis office in 2005. The company’s Web development operations and design group are run from St. Louis.
Dave Rutledge said the products the company sells, often manufacturers’ overstock, do well because they’re priced far below market value. “We’ve managed to continue steady growth through recession times and good times,” he said. “The key thing about Woot is we’re cheaper than you can get anywhere else.”
The South Grand building is owned by Tim Boyle’s City Property Co. Boyle has redeveloped several buildings at the Grand and Arsenal Street intersection since founding City Property Co. in 1990.
“While some areas are suffering, businesses and restaurants in this area are holding their own,” Boyle said. Susan Sauer of Duffe Nuernberger Realty represented City Property Co. in the lease, and Andy Murphy of NAI DESCO represented Woot.com.

RIM’s big show of the year, BlackBerry World, is kicking off early next month, and we’re already expecting them to announce the Bold Touch 9900 and the Curve 9860, but we may see yet another BlackBerry announced. The Curve Touch (the CDMA version of which is code-named Malibu), will be a lower-end alternative to the Touch 9900, and launching on T-Mobile in the same June/July timeframe as the other new RIM phones.
From what we’ve seen in the roadmaps, the BlackBerry Curve Touch will have an 800 MHz processor, 512 MB of RAM, 1 GB of storage (plus microSD), a 5 megapixel camera with HD video recording, and a 3.25-inch 480 x 360 display. Wi-Fi b/g/n possibly with mobile hotspot, GPS, and 3G. The Curve Touch will also include the new stuff that the other upcoming BlackBerrys are expected to get: near-field communications for quick transfers initiated just by tapping your phone on a sensor, and a magnetic compass to enable augmented reality applications.
It looks like RIM is going to be going into the summer with all guns blazing if three (or more) devices actuallyget announced at BlackBerry World next month. Other contenders for an announcement include the Torch 2, Sedona, and Orlando, which could make it one of RIM’s busiest shows to date.


It has been an interesting journey for the former 2010 first overall draft pick. At the height of his tenure with the New Jersey Devils was an MVP season in 2017/2018 where he registered career highs in goals(39), assists(54), and points(93). This was of course followed by the Devils trading the dynamic winger for middling prospects and conditional draft picks to the Arizona Coyotes just two-and-a-half seasons later. All of this taking place after starting his career with the Edmonton Oilers for six seasons starting in 2010. Hall fell out of favor in Edmonton and in Jersey and didn’t hold back his displeasure with each organization on more than one occasion. With a Hart Trophy and two all-star game selections in his back pocket Hall is set to hit the free-agent market this summer. Let’s take a closer look at the 28-year-old native from Calgary Alberta.
In the NHL’s Pacific Division, it’s been a bumpy ride all year long, with the top of the division and fifth place in the division being separated by only eight points. The contending teams are The Vegas Golden Knights, the Edmonton Oilers, the Calgary Flames, the Vancouver Canucks, and the Arizona Coyotes. All of those teams are in order from division leader to fifth. Only three teams can make it to the playoffs as a division qualifier, and one or two could make it as a wild card qualifier. It’s time to map out who will make it and who will falter down the stretch.
Happy New Year to all! With the new year and new decade here and the season just about halfway over, let’s take a look at what each team is wishing for in the new year as the second half of the season commences. Continue reading →
The NHL Weekly Roundup is back again as we witnessed another amazing week in the NHL full of big performances, upsets, and sadly… injuries. If you took my advice for games of the week you saw David Perron score a hat trick in a 5-2 St Louis Blues win over the rival Colorado Avalanche. In the Pittsburgh Penguins 4-1 victory over the Calgary Flames, we were treated to seeing Evgeni Malkin score his 400th goal. Finally, the New York Islanders vs. Boston Bruins didn’t disappoint as the match had to be settled with a shootout in which the Islanders took the victory. Now, let’s hit around the rest of the league, here are my three stars of the week. Continue reading →
The question of where Taylor Hall will land next continues, with a strong belief among many that Hall will be dealt to another club before the Christmas roster freeze. So far this season he has posted very adequate numbers, collecting 25 points in 30 games played which leads the New Jersey Devils.
Week five of the NHL Weekly Roundup is here! This week we saw teams near the bottom of the league starting to pick up the pace and put together win after win, and some of the teams higher on the boards showing their weaknesses and dropping in the rankings. Continue reading →

SPC turns to Facebook Live for back-to-school push
The discount card is tapping into the real-time relevance of the social platform, asking members to complete challenges for prizes.
Student Price Card (SPC) is rolling out a new campaign over Facebook Live to reward students just in time for back-to-school season.
This is the third year the student discount card has run its give-away campaign, though this year the brand turning to Facebook and Snapchat. It’s also changed its approach from asking students to submit their “Real Student Problems,” in favour of a chance for a “Payday.”
The campaign has members complete challenges in order to win gift cards to various SPC partner brands. There are daily and hourly challenges, which will change based on pop-culturally relevant happenings, says Kevin Hisko, VP of digital and innovation at SPC. The decision to do more hour-by-hour contests, which might include belting out a hot tune that just dropped or taking a photo next to a brand, is based on the changing consumption habits of the target demo (14- to 24-years-old), he says. This is an evolution from past years where students simply had to tweet to the brand sharing their student woes for a chance to win.
The brand also turned to Facebook for the first time following disappointing engagement rates on Twitter over the past few months. While it will stay on Twitter, Hisko says it struggled to get the brands to be a part of the campaign last year because there was a bit of fatigue on the platform. What’s more, while the challenges this year are more involved than simply sending out a tweet or a meme, the engagement rates have been much higher, based on pilots they did earlier in the year.
Facebook Live also allows the brand to tap into its 135,000-strong following, with the end goal to encourage participants to comment on challenges and possibly share with their own network of friends and family.
The brand has also partnered with BMO to target slightly older consumers (age 18 to 24), with a number of BMO-specific challenges (such as snapping a photo in front of BMO).
The competition, which was managed in house, will be promoted through largely unpaid social and owned channels, as well as in-store signage, though Hisko says there will be some paid media on Facebook. It launched Aug. 15 and will run through until the end of September.
