Why didn’t Biden’s DOJ do anything about the combo of coup attempt and pedos? Files were unsealed in early 2024 so plenty of time. It’s beyond Bill Clinton being implicated. I think it’s because it takes down elites of all stripes. What an indictment (pun intended) of so many in the ruling class.

Shit is nuts. This week I spoke to a crim. defense attorney from mpls who mostly does federal work. He said a client got arrested with 19 pounds of meth & an indictment was coming. Then the feds had to forgo the indictment because they don’t have the resources. Walking away from 19 pounds of meth!
They are running out of lawyers.
DM me? We used to get hundreds of highly qualified applicants for a single job posting. Good prosecutors are increasingly hesitant to work for this DOJ.

I get tired of saying it, but I’ll say it again: the nature of oppression in America is that they workshop it first on Black, Latino, Asian & Native people.

But it is always, in the end, coming for everyone.
The arrests of journalists Don Lemon and Georgia Fort are a test for every MSM member with a platform. If you are not voicing your outrage at this blatant violation of the First Amendment, you are utterly discredited as a journalist.

the arrest of journalists in minneapolis, including don lemon, is more evidence that the only move the administration knows how to make is to use force, and does not know how to respond when that force is met with defiance and indifference.

“Does the 14th Amendment actually say something secret and hidden about birthright citizenship?” is the fake argument.

“Should Donald Trump be able to rewrite the Constitution by executive fiat?” is the real argument. Republicans believe yes but don’t want to have to voice that argument!

This isn’t about convicting Don Lemon. It’s unlikely that will happen. It’s about intimidating journalists & making them censure themselves out of fear of consequences. It’s about eroding the free press because the administration can’t afford the criticism.
This just in: "Don Lemon was taken into custody by federal agents last night in Los Angeles, where he was covering the Grammy awards," Lemon's attorney Abbe Lowell says.

Breaking on MS NOW:

Career DOJ prosecutors in both Minnesota and Los Angeles refused to be involved in charging Don Lemon and the other journalists who covered the Minneapolis church protests.

The prosecutors believe the evidence does not support the charges, per @carolleonnig.bsky.social.

In court documents, families described brutal conditions. Parents said it was difficult to get water to mix with formula for babies, and food was contaminated with mold and worms. Children were under so much stress they were hitting their own faces or wetting themselves despite being potty-trained.

Being in the US without authorization isn’t a crime, it’s a civil violation (unless you’ve previously been removed).

Deprivation of rights under color of law is a federal crime. In extreme cases, it can carry the death penalty.

Filming cops in public is a First Amendment right.

Here is a video taken just this morning of ICE pepper spraying my friend who was standing several feet away, and behind a fence, from agents attempting an abduction.

Nothing about their conduct has changed. We need to continue our observations but please do so as safely as possible.

Photos of a child being detained bring to mind how in 2018, our clients blew the whistle on child detention practices, warning that a child might die if nothing is done. Then, children did.

Today we must ask: What is happening to children after they are taken?

Philosophy didn't exactly cure Peter Thiel. Indeed, there's a vibrant culture of reading humanities within SV. The issue is that the VCs in charge of the show genuinely want bad things, and simply can't be talked out of it.
I remember resenting having to take so many humanities courses in college, even though I tended to do better in them than in tech. Now seeing so many tech bros utterly lacking humanity, while I code with ethics, makes me resent that requirement going away since I graduated.
I agree that neither the humanities nor STEM are more important or pure or whatever than the other: the thing is that we need BALANCE between the two poles, and we have very much lost that in modern U.S. society today.
