Good morning. The President of the United States was in the middle of the most serious child sex trafficking ring of the last quarter century.

He is referenced not a dozen times in the case files. Not 100 times. Not 1,000 times. He’s referenced 38,000 times.

Comey Attacks Perjury and Obstruction Charges in New Motions The court filings added to the legal challenges that James B. Comey’s defense team has already raised against the indictment.

Lawyers for James Comey, the former FBI director, sought on Thursday to dismiss the perjury and obstruction charges against him, arguing that federal prosecutors botched the indictment by misusing the grand jury process and by accusing him of telling a lie that he never actually told.

An Obscure Military Program Helps Local Cops Buy Armored Cars and Spyware. It Might Balloon Under Trump. The 1122 program, as it’s known, presents a danger to protesters facing off against militarized cops, according to a new report.

"1122 program has allowed local cops to purchase everything from uniforms to riot shields at federal government rates."

"[P]oised to grow under recent executive action from Donald Trump."

California’s hidden homeless children: living in garages, doubled-up and unseen Student homelessness in Monterey county soars as families struggle with high rent and scarce housing amid funding cuts

The fastest-growing homeless population in America? School-age children.

Last year, student homelessness in Californiaβ€”where rents continue to soar past wagesβ€”rose by 20,000, reaching its highest level in a decade.

But sure, keep insisting homelessness is all about mental illness and addiction.

My oldest received their first Canada Disability Program payment. $200 every month, that would make a difference, if the Alberta government would not immediately deduct it from their AISH! Theft from the poor!

The Canadian government cannot afford to give any more tax cuts.
Unless those demanding cuts have an alternative to filling the federal coffers so we can fix infrastructure, build hospitals houses and schools pay workers a living wage.
The present system doesn't work anymore. Change mandated

What is a β€˜criminal’ immigrant? The word is an American rhetorical trap | Jonathan Ben-Menachem Labels like β€˜gang members’ and β€˜terrorist supporters’ are an easy way to make humans disposable

It shouldn't matter if Trump’s victims have criminal records. If we only defend the β€œinnocent,” the fascists will argue that their victim β€œwas no angel.” An anti-fascist rhetoric that carves out exceptions for imperfect victims is a gift to our opponents.

As Garber Stands Against Trump, Money From Harvard Donors Pours In | News | The Harvard Crimson After Harvard publicly rejected the Trump administration’s demands, a wave of support β€” and money β€” has come rushing in.

Harvard receives over $1 million in donations after standing up to Trump.

This is 40 times the usual donation level for April received in just 24 hours

To some longtime donors, their stand is a sign that Harvard is beginning to reclaim the conviction and fighting spirit they feared it had lost
