New York Gov. Kathy Hochul signed legislation repealing a near 120-year-old law that prohibited adultery. The 1907 law said that “a person is guilty of adultery when he engages in sexual intercourse with another person at a time when he has a living spouse, or the other person has a living spouse.” Adultery (cheating on your spouse) is no longer considered a crime in New York pic.twitter.com/s6lAuzgmAK — FearBuck (@FearedBuck) November 25, 2024 It was considered a Class B misdemeanor and carried a jail sentence of up to 90 days. According to Gothamist, Hochul said “these matters should clearly be handled by these individuals and not our criminal justice system.” “Let’s take this silly, outdated statute off the books, once and for all,” she added. Cheating on your spouse is no longer a crime in New York, with the repeal of a little-known 1907 law https://t.co/JRWPhU838u — The Associated Press (@AP) November 23, 2024 Gothamist reports: New York had been one of 17 states that considered adultery a crime, at least on paper. It now becomes at least the fifth state to have repealed such a law since 2015. Technically, the New York law applied when a person “engage(d) in sexual intercourse with another person at a time when he has a living spouse, or the other person has a living spouse.” But authorities had enforced it infrequently, with only 10 people statewide facing adultery as their highest-level charge in a given case since 1979, according to the state Division of Criminal Justice. The last known case was in 2010, when local police charged a 41-year-old married woman after she was caught in a sex act with a man in a public park in the city of Batavia, between Rochester and Buffalo. The adultery charge was later dropped. State Sen. Liz Krueger of Manhattan and Assemblymember Charles Lavine of Long Island, both Democrats, sponsored the bill to repeal the adultery law. State lawmakers passed it earlier this year. Cheating on your spouse is no longer a crime in New York. https://t.co/LW9fvsyeHG — Bloomberg (@business) November 22, 2024 From the Associated Press: State Assemblymember Charles Lavine, sponsor of the bill, said about a dozen people have been charged under the law since the 1970s, and just five of those cases resulted in convictions. “Laws are meant to protect our community and to serve as a deterrent to anti-social behavior. New York’s adultery law advanced neither purpose,” Lavine said in a statement Friday. The state’s law appears to have last been used in 2010, against a woman who was caught engaging in a sex act in a park, but the adultery charge was later dropped as part of a plea deal. New York came close to repealing the law in the 1960s after a state commission tasked with evaluating the penal code said it was nearly impossible to enforce. At the time, lawmakers were initially on board with removing the ban but eventually decided to keep it after a politician argued that repealing it would make it seem like the state was officially endorsing infidelity, according to a New York Times article from 1965.

A big thank you to a reader for reminding me of this! Yesterday, I brought you this report: Top Two “Trump Prophets” Both Speaking About XRP! But it turns out I forgot one! In a comment to that article, one person (hat tip ? to "plantsower") reminded me that Manuel Johnson has been prophesying about XRP for a long time too! That's exactly right, and I somehow forgot. In fact, Manuel Johnson came on my show LIVE back in July of 2023 and told me two things: XRP WINS and TRUMP WINS! Well folks, the second one just played out before our very eyes in the 2024 election and as I type this the first one is starting to play out as well.... XRP was under $0.50 before the election and as I type this sits at about $1.50!  Wow! So I thought I would repost my 2023 interview with Manuel Johnson right here so you can see what he told us is coming next for XRP. Please enjoy: Manuel Johnson, Bo Polny and Noah Talk XRP, Trump and GLORY DAYS! You gotta love Manuel Johnson... He exudes happiness and joy and peace and calm. Why? Because he's seen the future and he knows we win! We've all done that if you've read the last page of Revelation in the Bible, but Manuel has also been gifted by God to be given glimpses in to the future. It reminds me of what Paul writes in 2 Corinthians 12: I know a man in Christ who fourteen years ago—whether in the body I do not know, or whether out of the body I do not know, God knows—such a one was caught up to the third heaven. A few of those over the years have been about cryptocurrency. Yes, Bitcoin but also a cryptocurrency called XRP. I can't even begin to do justice to trying to summarize everything Manny and Bo said in this discussion, so you are just going to have to watch. It was a real blast and we're going to have to do it again soon. But we basically just hit "Go Live" and we let 'er rip! I played Manuel's clip from April 2023 when he said Ripple & XRP would win and be victorious in their lawsuit with the SEC and that the win would come in 2023. For those of you paying attention, that happened LAST WEEK! Nearly every legal pundit on CNBC kept saying Ripple would lose, but that's not what Manny said. And he was right (of course). So we talked about that and then we talked about the future for XRP, for Bitcoin, for the U.S. Dollar, for the United States....and yes, even for Trump! Oh, and flying cars. But that comes at the end. A big thank you to Bo for arranging this chat and for all of his wisdom he always shares with us as well -- and there's a LOT of that in here! I tried to talk the least and let these two guys cover everything and boy did they ever! If you're an XRP holder or Gold or Silver or Bitcoin....you're in for a treat! This was a lot of fun and I hope you really enjoy this one... Watch safely here on Rumble: And a backup here on Twitter too: LIVE with Manuel Johnson and Bo Polny! XRP https://t.co/HGLlyyc4CH — Noah Christopher (@DailyNoahNews) July 18, 2023 I am not a financial advisor and I cannot tell you what to do, and neither can Manny or Bo, but I will just say this....I've been buying XRP since 2017 and I ain't stopping now! And if you want more from Bo, he was on my show mano-a-mano last week and it was a great one. You can catch all of that right here: Bo Polny: God Will Get The Glory, Not Trump (Plus $150,000 Bitcoin!) ? Download Bo's slides for free: https://qrco.de/beA1oQ ?

But we also talked a lot about Gold and Silver. And we've BEEN talking about Gold and Silver for a long time. So....if you're wanting to get some #Gold or #Silver, I've got you covered... I have two special hook-ups for you. Both involve PHYSICAL gold and silver. Because if you do NOTHING else, make sure you own "physical" gold and silver, not paper contracts. The paper contracts (like stock ticker SLV and GLD) could very well go POOF one day and disappear or go to zero, because they're not actually backed by the gold and silver they claim to represent. It's a massive game of musical chairs out there and when the music stops (and I think it will stop soon...) people who only own paper might find themselves owning something not worth the paper it's literally written on. And I know you'll never forget it if I give you this GIF so....Let's Get Physical: Now...WHERE do you get physical gold and silver and how do you know it's real and safe? And that you're getting the best price? Oh, and how about personal one-on-one real customer service? You know, like you were some Big Wig millionaire at Goldman Sachs who could just call their personal banker and get help? That's what I'm about to tell you.   I have two killer connections for you... The first is for purchasing gold and silver bullion. That means bulk bars. That's the cheapest and most economical way to do it, to stretch your dollar into as much gold and silver as possible. The website is called WLT Precious Metals and when you see my logo in the top left-hand corner, you'll know you're in the right place. You'll get a personal phone call with Ira Bershatsky (or someone on his team) and they will work with you free of charge for as long as needed to answer any questions you have and get you taken care of. How about that! You don't see that much anymore, but Ira and his team pride themselves on good old-fashioned real customers service: No sales pitch, just real, actual help. And the best prices you will find. Here's the only disclaimer I will give you: because they do pride themselves on dedicated service, it might take a few days before you get a phone call back.  Just be patient. Good things come to those who wait! You can contact Ira and WLT Precious Metals here. Ok, that was #1. Now I want to tell you about option #2. An equally great company, I am so happy to be working with these guys. This next company is called Genesis Gold and this is for people who want to purchase real physical gold or silver in their IRAs (Investment Retirement Accounts). You know what the beauty of that is? TAX FREE baby! I'm not a tax advisor, but that's a general oversimplification. Never pay more taxes than you are legally required to pay. And that's why I love getting gold and silver in my IRA (and why I hold a large chunk in an IRA myself!). There's so much to love about Genesis Gold, starting with the fact they are proudly and un-ashamedly Christina! They call it "Faith-Driven Stewardship" and they put it right on the homepage of their website along with a quote from Ezekiel: Wealth Preservation With Gold & Silver – The Genesis Gold IRA By your wisdom and your understanding you have made wealth for yourself, and have gathered Gold and Silver into your treasuries – EZEKIEL 28:4 Genesis Gold Group believes the Bible gives clues on how man-made currencies (paper money) represent instability, and a lack of virtue and encourages living wastefully in excess. Conflicts have beleaguered us since the dawn of civilization, and they can all be encapsulated into one battle. The battle is between currency, man-made paper, and gold and silver — the two precious metals found in our Earth’s crust, sent to us by our Lord to use as money. Man-made currency always leads nations down the path to increased war, greed, and ultimate collapse. History has shown that abandoning gold and silver has always been a bad idea. Gold and Silver enforce discipline, nurture self-constraint, self-reliance, and balance, and lead to confidence, a restrained government, and a more stable foreign policy. Genesis Gold Group believes in empowering faith-driven stewardship with Gold & Silver are an integral part of a balanced portfolio. Protecting your finances with precious metals has never been more crucial during these trying times. With a combined 50-plus years in the precious metals industry, let your Genesis gold and silver experts guide you through the simplicity of asset protection and growth with our Genesis Gold IRA. Sincerely, Genesis Gold Group Empowering Faith-Driven Stewardship Oh....and they're VERY good at what they do. You also get physical gold and silver with Genesis, believe it or not!  The gold and silver is purchased for you (in whatever combination of coins and bars you prefer, a picture taken and sent to you, and then stored safely in a vault for you! I love what these guys are doing. Here's more on why gold and silver in your IRA are so powerful: You can contact Genesis Gold here. They are also very backed up with record demand, so you may have to wait a bit, but someone WILL get in touch with you for personal customer service and assistance! Tell 'em Noah sent ya!
