Perilously close to being a retired lawyer. Alternative facts are lies. Clean water, plumbing, a place to sleep and healthcare for all is more important than another yacht for anyone. Human rights are civil rights. Climate change, don't get me started. . .

Corruption so pungent, it wafts right off the page:
Lobbyists who do pardon deals “say their going rate is $1 million. Pardon-seekers have offered some lobbyists close to the president success fees of as much as $6 million if they can close the deal.”

After buying it for $18.8 billion, Walgreens' new private equity owner has eliminated paid holidays for all hourly workers on Christmas and New Year's.
Last year, Walgreens had a CEO-to-Worker pay gap of 410 to 1.
Corporate greed that would make even Scrooge blush.

Is it just me, or is everyone so busy criticizing CBS for cutting the CECOT segment that no one is talking about the horrors the CECOT segment disclosed?

Because Trump doesn’t care about anything unethical, including murder. The only God he worships is money and Trump.
If you find this hard to believe - let me remind you that Khashoggi's murderer sat beside trump in the Oval and was fawned all over. He celebrates murderers as "strong leaders"

Poverty is a policy choice. Concentrated wealth is a policy choice. Inequality is a policy choice. None of it is natural or inevitable. Remember: We have the power to build a system that serves the many, not the powerful few.

Never has this been more true than with Trump’s sickeningly despicable response to the death of Rob Reiner. And with his doubling down on his hatred for Reiner while the country mourns.
May Trump’s end be soon and painful and his eternity spent in the depths of hell where he belongs. #ProudBlue
