Hi. I'm not going to follow you back, especially if I don't recognize you. I doubt you're really here to watch me talk about packing up my books so I can move house, but you never know.

14 months from the insurrection to conviction. No wasting 30 months hemming & hawing about norms followed by appointing a special prosecutor so no one would make accusations of political bias. Who knew this could be done?

Who needs electoral legitimacy? Trump’s authoritarian ambitions go global. His new “Board of Peace” carries $1 billion membership fee. Trump is the chairman — not just while he's president, but for life! He can invite new countries to join or expel others.

what I want people to feel, when they look at South Korea and the UK and Brazil holding elites accountable, is that it's possible here too. Elect true leaders this year and in 28, empowered - but also driven by us, the people - to hold the criminals accountable for their crimes. It's possible.

The president is the only major world leader pulling every lever of govt to shield pedophiles implicated in the biggest minor trafficking ring ever uncovered and it isn't even a story, forget major or ongoing. US political media needs to be burnt to the ground and rebuilt from ashes. Irredeemable
1. The president is burning up the American middle class with the largest tax increase since the early 1990s, which itself is snowballing the price of everything from coffee to clothes to carpets to car parts.
Yet this isn’t a major, ongoing, attention-grabbing story.

It is notable that Andrew has been arrested for "misconduct in public office", which is precisely what the US Supreme Court decided no American president can ever be charged with.
So SCOTUS, with its fabricated-out-of-thin-air immunity doctrine, has actually made American presidents less accountable than LITERAL royalty.
Breaking News: Andrew Mountbatten-Windsor, formerly known as Prince Andrew, was arrested in Britain on suspicion of misconduct in public office over his links to Jeffrey Epstein, the BBC said.

I understand why prison abolition is controversial but I don’t think you can get away from the fact that the most passionate prison abolitionists work closely with incarcerated people or were incarcerated themselves. The more you know about the logistics of incarceration the more you hate it.
