If it was only Democrats on the Epstein list, Trump would be sending it to every household in America. Sure some MAGA will forgive Trump for being on it, but how many?

Artificial blueberries are chunks made from sugars, starches and oils colored with blue and red dyes and flavored with perhaps trans-2-hexenol, trans-2-hexenal, cis-3-hexenol, cis-3-hexenal and combinations thereof.
You can eat them. But they're "artificial".

People really don’t understand what it is. It is simply a text generator that uses statistical tools to stick one word after another. If it is trained on legal documentation it will generate legal sounding text, *but* has less capacity to understand what is being asked of it than a parrot might.

If one woman accuses a man they’ll say she’s lying, because she’s only one person. If more than a dozen women accuse a man they’ll say they’re all lying, it must be a coordinated campaign

I would just like one (1) high-profile political journalist to publicly acknowledge the painfully obvious fact that the two parties are covered differently, held to different standards, and to wrestle with why that is & its practical effects on US politics.

We're in another golden age of political cartoons. Sadly.
So now there may be a war because #TrumpleThinSkin couldn't stand an Obama success?

An excellent suggestion
Another idea:
Start doing Online hearings for immigrants.
Online hearings will keep them and those trying to protect rights, safe.
Courts conducted business online during Covid. Courts can do it now.

Permissiveness for this has also now been created in the US
When rapists can buy ICE gear on Amazon, you can bet they are planning on disappearing women. Also including angry boyfriends and abusive spouses doing the same.

Back of the envelope calculations, but if everyone in England had an equal amount of land, that would be nearly an acre each. "It is far easier to cling to privileges if few are privy to their extent."
(This was pointed out to me in "Who Owns England?" by Guy Shrubsole.)

Useful to remember when talking to people on social media. Standard Operating Procedure for agents infiltrating anti-authoritarian movements is to advocate for and help plan more and more extreme actions (see "Undercover" by Rob Evans and Paul Lewis). Another reason why non-violent action is best.
