When I was found guilty of murder & sentenced to 26 years, I lost all hope that the truth of my innocence would ever matter. The prison put me on suicide watch. It was shortly thereafter that I received a curious letter from a psychology professor.

Joe and Mika are media commentators and political analysts— they don’t need sources and they don’t need to cozy up with an administration to cover it. They’re kissing the ring of state power for access, which is their prerogative, but it isn’t journalism.

This is ground I will not concede. The law matters, and the way we talk about it matters, too.
Getting a lot of replies along the lines of "oh, you rube, you still think the law matters" and it feels strategically foolish to just concede that it doesn't. Contest everything. Expose the hypocrisy.

Blocking Nazis, trolls, and fascists doesn’t make it an “echo chamber.” People need to stop gaslighting us into thinking we have to listen to Nazis and debate trolls in order to be informed.

I'm embarrassed by Trump the way a kid is embarrassed when she has to walk to school with the too-tight leopard-print leggings/clear plastic stripper shoes/hideous hooker-makeup wearing WORST STEPMOTHER EVER.
Like, I didn't do ANYTHING to deserve this, but here I am, SHAMED before the whole school.

In 2011 Alabama passed HB 56, a "deport yourself" immigration bill designed to get "illegals" to leave. I sued, as the US Atty in Bham. We succeeded but by then, there was no one to pick the tomato crop, long delays to build or repair a home, etc. No one thought about the cost of hate in advance.
Jessica: You can say Donald Trump has the mandate until you're blue in the face, taking grandma is not what people were voting for.

Senators are constitutionally empowered to confirm nominees for the cabinet. Trump has demanded that any Senator who wishes to replace McConnell as Leader agree to end-run that process. He has no time for constitutional niceties.
Speed is critical for authoritarians.
