Everyone should be protesting the Trump-instigated crisis in L.A. every day. People continuing to go about their daily lives and capitulate to dictatorship is as outrageous as the dictator's actions themselves. This is why we are here. Failure to take responsibility and act. Decades of just this.

Alcatraz prison closed primarily due to high operating costs and deteriorating infrastructure. The isolation of the island, combined with the need to transport supplies (and water) by boat...making it nearly three times more expensive to operate than other federal prisons...
Reopening? Misdirection

The Human Genome Project cost taxpayers $3 Billion.
Two decades on, it has generated a staggering return on investment of $1 Trillion, with benefits in medicine, agriculture, energy, the environment, & more.
If you want to boost the economy, funding science is one of the best things you could do.

Thinking about devastating cuts to NSF: US gov-funded science has been the engine upon which most of the tech wealth was generated. But the oligarchs (currently hoarding much of that $) think it’s their own brilliance & not the accident of standing close to the scientific engine that made them rich.

"Trump lost against the Maine governor. He lost against Perkins Coie. He loses 80% of cases in court. Which makes those who’ve capitulated look that much more foolish, because if they’d just fought back, they would've retained what they thought they'd lose and their dignity would still be intact."
Trump forced to concede defeat
Maine's governor promised she'd see Trump in court. She just declared victory.

Few lawyers are willing to speak publicly about President Trump’s actions against law firms. Fear is rippling through Washington. But, despite being a target, Marc Elias is still talking. Scott Pelley sits down with him tonight on 60 Minutes.
