This is a reckless comment from a lawyer who knows better. No one is jailing anyone at will. A grand jury has found probable cause of crimes. Trump gets due process, like everyone else. He gets jailed only if a jury finds guilt beyond a reasonable doubt and a judge imposes jail.

A prime example for why emergency orders from bureaucrats with no expertise in the field they're regulating should be issued rarely, if ever.
The guy has no idea what he's talking about. All our Attorney General knows is if he abuses his power today, he gets on TV tonight.

Hi, Caleb. I say nothing here that I wouldn't say to your face. When you strip humans of their medical rights, when you defund libraries, when you view policymaking through the lens of religion, then don't expect us to just "exchange pleasantries and go about our business."

"The past year was a brutal one for Putumayo," the part of #Colombia where US-backed "Plan Colombia" security operations began in the early 2000s. "The long-awaited peace fizzled out as its legitimacy faded."

I'm so grateful to @arianaeunjung for an incredible, months-long deep-dive into Missouri's war on trans kids and their families. It never gets easy to share these vulnerable details. But we do it because it's the only way that we know how to fight back. wapo.st/3Zt30qY

If you want to understand the current crisis in Peru, you need to look beyond the "breaking news" of Castillo's botched coup and the chaos of the past 5 years. You need to lift the veil of the "Peruvian economic miracle" and take a long hard look at its broken social fabric 🧵

As you gather with friends and family this Thanksgiving, think about the farm workers who contributed to each dish. Tell us your favorite ingredients and we will show you the skilled work behind it. #WeFeedYou
It’s easy to point fingers at individuals when the real issue is structural. Corp charters generally demand short term profits for shareholders, and the impact on services, communities, the environment, and even the corp & long term profits is secondary. #TwitterOff #3BottomLine

Barring any unexpected updates, the breakdown in the Wisconsin State Legislature will be as follows:
Senate:
Republican 22 - Democratic 11
Assembly:
Republican 64 - Democratic 35
This is in a year where the Democratic governor won by 3.5% and the Republican senator won by 1%.

I have *always* been interested in how people change their minds. I think it started with my Dad's story - he was a conservative, religious Jew until he was 18, then he had an argument with a union activist on a picket line. 1/
