American politics makes a lot more sense when you realize that the GOP is afraid of pissing off the GOP base, and the Dems are afraid of pissing off the GOP base, but neither party is afraid of pissing off the Dem base.

DHS and the White House pushed out sadistic videos celebrating this. The United States kidnapped people and dumped them in a foreign torture prison without any sort of process, and many of whom likely committed no serious crime. People in government need to be prosecuted for this.

I think this bag is fake.
Hermes's flagship products are handsewn using a saddle stitch. A worker marks the leather using an awl and then threads two needles through from both sides.
This results in a tight stitch with no holes between the stitches. The holes here suggest the bag was machine sewn.

I think this may actually be a BFD. One of the defendants (Tish James, IIRC) raised who the client was in the motion to DQ.
Plus, I think Lemons is getting stuck playing front man for the larger conspiracy against rights prosecution, which is doing a lot of illegal things.

Her husband told her that detainees at Broadview had to get up at 5am to get in line for one bathroom. He often peed himself. One time he had to wait until 2pm to use the bathroom. You could only use the bathroom once a day. He said the agents would beat you if you used the bathroom on yourself.
