“...the basic infrastructure for prosecuting white collar crime is being dismantled at the DOJ and so in a world where DOJ is no longer particularly interested in going after rich criminals we want to recreate some of the infrastructure for that outside of government.”

It’s sad when a Secretary of Defense says the loss of American soldier lives is unremarkable. I don’t believe he actually believes that though. But that he’s saying that to protect and suck up to his boss.
Which may be even worse

Not sure they considered enough the power of parties, the math of first past the post voting and the public power and privilege a congressional seat would end up accruing.

They couldn’t convince a judge to issue a warrant which said it was needed to investigate Good for assault on an officer?
So the car sat there for weeks?
When they had a warrant signed by a judge based on Good as the victim

Incredible

There are 125k soldiers in the Iranian Revolutionary Guard. The leaders control internal security and much of the economy. The generals are some of the wealthiest and most powerful people in Iranian government. They are ruthless ideologues. Bombing will not displace them. Trump is on a hamster wheel

Many reported sex abuse cases are vigorously investigated based on a woman’s testimony alone. Sometimes the investigation results in verification. The Q is- were the reports investigated at all

This seems worthy of an investigation by the FBI and DOJ.

Spending .000002% of your time listening to land acknowledgements is not only not the end of the world but is just maybe worth spending .000002% of your time listening to the actual words if you in fact actually love everything about this soil.

When law enforcement doesn’t care about people. This is what happens.

Follow the Constitution, go back to recognizing limited safe spaces to protect kids and victims of crime and become a minimally professional force seems like a no brainer
Yet Republicans claim they are non starters

How can Dems work with colleagues who stand and cheer when Trump calls them Cheaters and insane and America haters? I mean they didn’t have to stand and cheer that nonsense.

It sure how any Dem can continue to work with co workers who stand and cheer when the Fems are called cheaters, insane , and basically America haters
Trump is intent on driving a wedge between people in America and he’s being successful

Much different that the usual guests. She is a living witness to the worst of Trumps orders

Interesting. Thanks

Also good to note that from February 2021 to February 26 (similar 5 years) the Democratic Party registration shrank by 65,000 members and the GOP shrank by 22,000 (m/l)

I really don’t understand why this issue isn’t before a federal court like yesterday. People are talking like it’s something to negotiate. You don’t need to trade something to get the feds to follow the constitution

Trump paid 128 million for a building assessed at 29 million.
Whats the art of that deal?
And now they probably won't be able to open it unless the do some major infrastucture investment. And even then....
Sounds like 129 million down the drain
