🚨 “Black women are the canaries in the coal mine, the exclusion happens to them first,” Katica Roy said. “And if any other cohort thinks it’s not coming for them, they’re wrong. This is a warning, and it’s a stark one.”

Trump’s Former Insurance Lawyer Fucked Up His Revenge Prosecution Of James Comey In So Many Ways
Yes, as I already wrote about, the indictment against James Comey was already thrown out due to Halligan's improper appointment, but it's also worth covering how badly she fucked up even if she had been appointed legally. These cases were destined for the dustbin no matter what, because Halligan had no idea what she was doing. Late last week just one example of that insanity came out in court.

The VP wouldn’t be where he is today without the patronage of the Palantir co-founder Peter Thiel. But with voters becoming more and more concerned about the firm’s surveillance tech, could that relationship affect his chances, asks Arwa Mahdawi

How do you feel about hospitals providing emergency care to people unable to pay?

Hold that thought.

How do you feel about care provided to the undocumented?

If your answer was “let them die” you are the problem with this country, not immigration.

Yes, I am totally judging you. Full Stop.

The boardroom continues to rob the break room. CEO compensation is up 1300%. Companies continue to lay off 10-15% of annual workforce to pad their numbers. People died for the right to have a living wage. We’re losing that battle again.

This is how we as a nation are treating immigrant children snatched from their homes and communities. To be warm and feel safe they have to huddle together under foil. People need to go to prison for this abuse. A LOT of people in this administration.

Epstein problem: Trump demanded Bondi open investigations into Clinton, etc, & she did. Real reason was so Trump/DOJ could refuse to release the files during an investigation. If the bill to release passes both Houses that could override DOJ’s need to withhold. But the decision could go to SCOTUS
Biden could not have released the files while Ghislaine Maxwell was charged, prosecuted then appealed, all of which lasted to the end of Biden’s term. Once the files are released we’ll see if Garland was investigating any of the rich men who abused the victims.
