Not even going to get in to the weeds of how self-pitying Nuzzi's "I Did A Shit With My Clothes On: A Survivor's Tale" press tour is, OR that she landed another six-figure salary at a legacy publication ten months later.

it is simply crazy that we live in a world where politicians have to backtrack and deny that they ever called for defunding the police, when the real people who should be made to answer for their extremism are those who support the current realities of our police state
