It’s just kind of hard to think you actually care about keeping the streets safe when you refuse to do anything to keep them from being flooded with guns.

NEW: Sen. Chris Murphy (D-CT) took the floor today to recount Trump’s first 100 days, saying the time has been marked by corruption. He warned that if the President’s abuse of power continues, our democracy may not survive.

If I could speak to the heads of big law firms, I would ask: Is the risk of losing some clients worth betraying your oath to the rule of law?
To everyone nodding but refusing to take a stand, I say: You are ignoring Martin Niemöller’s message. It is you that Martin Luther King Jr. was condemning.

I haven't ever really spoken about this to anyone, but when I was litigating the so-called "comfort women" case, I went to the National Archives to obtain and read the testimonies of women and girls who were held in sex slave camps by the Japanese military following their release.

I wrote several books about Trump and organized crime. But more to the point, authors like David Cay Johnston and Wayne Barrett wrote about Trump as a mafioso *in the 1980s*. This was WIDELY known. The question was never "is Trump involved in organized crime?" but "why does the US govt allow it?"
