One thing I didn't fully appreciate until I sat on a jury and reviewed body cam footage for myself, is how cops yell contradictory instructions at people like "Don't move" "Put your hands up" "Get the fuck out of here" "Keep your hands where I can see them" etc. all screamed at your face with guns

My family's health insurance is just under $30,000 a year (myself, spouse and adult child). Our deductible is over $10,000/yr.
If the US can spend money blowing up Venezuela and is talking about buying Greenland then why the hell can't it pay for affordable healthcare for its citizens?

Pardoned by Trump after convicted of 12 counts of bank fraud and tax evasion. Don’t have to pay back $17.8 million in restitution or serve 12 year sentence. Not Somalis.

Over the past eight weeks, the dismissal rate of the Trump DOJ's criminal complaints in D.C. has risen to 21% — compared to 0.5% over the past decade.
Some errors came after senior officials made public statements that strayed from the allegations in sworn court filings, violating department rules.

Unprecedented errors are eroding the credibility of Trump's Justice Department

This is the exact same excuse that U-852's Captain Eck gave in his war crimes trial for the Peleus Incident: that he was targeting the wreckage not the survivors (who just happened to be killed). He was found guilty and executed by firing squad.
