Your regular reminder that we desperately need to overturn Citizens United and get big money out of politics.

"We worked for months, anticipating different scenarios for what might go wrong. Everyone’s reputation and future film festivals were riding on the success of this one."
The San Quentin film festival — which featured films from incarcerated and formerly incarcerated people — was one for the books. "We pulled it off in only seven months."
Anatomy of a Prison Film Festival
A series of films by incarcerated filmmakers stole the show at San Quentin Rehabilitation Center.

the point of the ballroom obvs has nothing to do with aesthetics. it's to create an architectural structure to honor the patronage networks that currently dominate US politics. previous WH venues hosted maybe a couple of hundred people; this hosts nearly 1,000 rich donors.

"Government" isn't shutdown. The Trump administration continues to destroy the White House, kidnap people, and take bribes.
The only thing "shutdown" is the branch of government that could stop Trump (Congress), which is odd because Republican-controlled Congress is too craven to do that anyway.

I've known too many dumb young marines to care that Platner was a dumb young marine, saw a context-free tottenkopf tattoo parlor flash, and got the 'sick skull tat, bro' in Croatia.
I care that upon finding out as an adult that he had a nazi tattoo he didn't immediately, horrified, book a removal.

While legal experts say military operators are not likely to be prosecuted for involvement in the cartel strikes, junior officers are nervous, sources say. Some have asked military lawyers for written sign-off before taking part; such sign-off hasn't happened, said one source.
