Phang: It is a fundamental premise of the law that there is no requirement that a criminal defendant be forced to testify to explain away the government’s evidence. Hallagan went to law school and knows better, but she’s so stupid that she made that misstatement of the law to the grand jury.

If this picture was of Obama, you know @FoxNews would do three weeks solid on why the flag was on the ground.

At least three weeks

Dear ICE: They don't let you wear a mask in your mug shot.
Great news. This is what an ICE agent looks like in a mugshot. Meet Gerardo Rodriguez, 45, of Temecula, courtesy of the Riverside County Sheriff’s Office. Arrested for "illegally detaining a minor at gunpoint while off duty last week." 🧵

I have finished MURDERBOT.

I need there to be as many episodes of this show as there are episodes of 'The Rise and Fall of Sanctuary Moon.'

So, at least 2000.

And yes, I know that would literally kill everyone involved. And that's a sacrifice I'm willing to make.

According to the email from Mark Epstein to his brother Jeff,

Putin has a picture of TACO giving oral sex to another man. The email implies Bill Clinton, but it really doesn’t matter who it is.

That’s a kind of Kompromat that would render ANYONE ineligible to hold a security clearance.

For @msmagazine.com, I wrote about the WNBA and the issue of pay equity. By the time the WNBA was only two seasons in (1999-2000) the average NBA salary was 58 times higher than the average WNBA salary. Twenty-six years later, the gap has jumped to 116 times higher.

This is good news. The ICE agent is arrested on state charges, so the Convicted FElon & the Regime can't do anything to stop this. They can try but it will be illegal.

The pro-Nick Fuentes Administration destroying people and institutions on the basis of “fighting antisemitism” has me losing my damn mind.

The Nazi-sympathizers pretending to be protectors of American Jews has to be one of the most profound mindfucks in an era rife with them.

The prosecution of James Comey is going about as well as you'd expect

"the government's potential violations of the Fourth Amendment..establish a reasonable basis to question whether the..conduct was willful or in reckless disregard of the law"

"'grounds may exist to dismiss the indictment'"

Most Americans agree we need to get money out of politics. If that takes a constitutional amendment, then that's what we have to do. And if that's going to take years, then it's all the more reason to begin pushing now.
