Easy enough to talk about darkness
someone or something is dark
as if the word itself had something to say
unless you’ve been there long enough to know
how rotten we all are and how the darkness feeds
on the knowing until you’re wrapped in dead flesh
so when someone does bring it up,

from the first speech this criminal sex trafficker gave, he stated "don't believe what you see/hear, just believe what I tell you" and the magats have done as he demanded. just unbelievable.
Trumplethinskin creates his own version of reality & then expects us to believe it as if we don't have eyes, ears or functioning brains.

They're using the confinement box, one of the most horrific methods of CIA torture in the post-9/11 black sites, against migrants now. This is the direct result of the lack of consequences for the architects of the torture program. Either there will be criminal penalties for this or it will expand.

It's good—very good, and very important—that district courts keep issuing these 100-page rulings upholding the law. It must be incredibly dispiriting to see them overturned in a two-page, lawless, unsigned order, but please, keep them coming. They expose SCOTUS' corruption like nothing else.

Waiting on the identity on the charged bomber, but as an old explosives prosecutor, I'll say that evidence of identity can come from bomb signatures recognized by investigators w/institutional knowledge, components & where they were purchased, or tips. Revisiting old evidence can be illuminating.
