Kalief Browder, a Black teenager, was arrested for allegedly *stealing a backpack* & sent to Rikers for THREE years. He was tormented there & spent ~2 yrs in solitary confinement. He later killed himself.

There's an episode in Blackadder 3 where Edmond uses made-up words to convince Samual Johnson that he's missed stuff from his dictionary. I have been using these same words in work meetings and reports for decades without ever being challenged on their authenticity.

Schiff: "I think that all of these strikes are unlawful. They are a form of extrajudicial killing. These boats are not invading the US in an armed assault ... the fact the administration may put a group of organizations on a list doesn't confer on a president the ability to kill them at sea."

AUS politicians have so many perks & entitlements "within the guidelines". They know they don't pass the pub test; they just hope the opposing party and a complicit media don't make it a story. Imagine if a PM told all his MPs to stop milking the system. Note: Anika Wells' salary is $403,064 #auspol
