I remember the phrase "they can't be allowed to melt back into society" re: the de-Baathification of Iraq after the war there. Like everything about that experience, the attempt was cynical, stupid, and botched. But there really should be a plan about what we do with guys like these in the future.
ICE detain father shopping on Christmas Eve—then steal his family's groceries.

Then 3 agents divvy up his paid for food—taking what they want for themselves.

"Can I just get the wife's number to call and let her know?" woman asks.

"No, guess he should've complied," agent says.

America has 925 billionaires as of this year. Collectively they have a record $6.9 trillion in wealth.

The bottom 50% of Americans control $4.2 trillion in wealth.

When 925 people control more wealth than half a country’s population, we have a very serious problem.

It’s actually very comforting to know while you’re spending your Christmas surrounded by family, close friends and holiday cheer the President of the United States is alone, miserable and screaming into the computer because he’s wholly incapable of love.

Among the newly-released Epstein files. This Justice Dept email from Jan 2020

'I wanted to let you know that the flight records we received yesterday reflect that Donald Trump traveled on Epstein's private jet many more times than previously has been reported"

I deleted my post about alleged letter from Epstein to Nassar because I’m concerned about its authenticity and I’m worried that sharing it may help the DoJ damage the credibility of other documents if it turns out to be a forgery.

James Talarico: The Bible doesn't mention abortion or gay marriage, but it goes on and on about forgiving debt, liberating the poor, and healing the sick. The closest thing we have to the kingdom of heaven is a multiracial, multicultural democracy where power is truly shared among all people

Trump calls himself “THE AFFORDABILITY PRESIDENT.” Voters say they’re broke. Consumer confidence is collapsing. And even his own supporters aren’t buying the spin anymore.

Increase in productivity since 1979: 87%

Increase in hourly pay since 1979: 32%

Just so happens that ~25% of workers were unionized in 1979. Today? 10%.

As unions declined, the super-rich have taken a larger share of wealth generated by labor. We must build back union power.

The Trump administration's strikes on civilian boats have killed nearly 90 people.

These strikes are clear violations of domestic and international law, and place military personnel in unacceptable legal, ethical, and moral jeopardy. They must stop.
