Prison rape is wrong.
Jokes about prison rape are wrong.
Eliminating protections against prison rape is wrong.
If another country sentenced a criminal to be raped, we'd consider it a crime against humanity.
BUT
A large segment of Americans regard prison rape as a de facto part of the sentence.

That’s a tough question. Resisting masked armed thugs in any circumstance can get you beaten or killed by the armed thugs. If the masked armed thugs are agents of the U.S. government it will also get you prosecuted for “assault on a federal officer” or “resisting arrest.”

Serious question for lawyers - what are you supposed to do if people without warrants, badges, ID, and covering their faces attempt to detain you?
Here's a longer video of Brad Lander's detention just now inside 26 Federal Plaza as he tried to walk a man out of immigration court, by masked federal agents.

So, to be clear, Musk has now admitted he funded a man he believes to be a pedophile to be president.
And Trump has now admitted that he gave access to high level government secrets to a man he believes to be a big time drug addict.
This should be *the* story on the Sunday shows tomorrow.

Issues injunction.
Rubio ignores.
Issues another injunction.
Is that the right reading?
At some point, it has GOT to move from injunctions to sanctions and then (sooner more than later) to handcuff.
The law is not self-enforcing. Rule-of-law norms can do a lot … until they do nothing at all.

BREAKING: After a federal judge issued an injunction ending the refugee resettlement funding freeze, Rubio just started terminating all of the contracts. Judge Jamal Whitehead issues a follow-on injunction tonight ordering the terminated agreements reinstated unless Rubio actually follows the law.

The Humiliation of Joe and Mika, and The Failure of Corporate Journalism.
The co-hosts of Morning Joe decide to bend the knee to Trump and obey in advance thereby affirming the eroding credibility of corporate media which will continue to sanewash Trump's authoritarianism.
