I am so sick and tired of hearing trump and his minions cite 'national security threat' and 'trump's agenda' I could puke. Thanks again for these weekly summaries, I really appreciate them.

"The Anti-Corruption and Public Integrity Act" that United States Representative Pramila Jayapal (WA-07) and United States Senator Elizabeth Warren (D-Mass.) introduced could have prevented a lot of the blatant bribery that we see today, had it been passed decades ago.

We have multi-layer Systematic Corruption now. Despotism is on the upswing, because the rich want government to be their tool in maintaining power imbalances that enable a few people to exploit the masses.

I continue to expect #PrisonLabor to expand, #incarceration to expand, and the wealthy to attempt to normalize #slavery.

Busy week!

Do we have a definition of what “advocates race science means?”

Odds are “shylock” was a standard household word in young Donny’s house when little Bibi wasn’t over for dinner with pops Netanyahu. Maybe Mary could confirm. He probably always thought that word just meant “banker my dad doesn’t like” and that the “N” word just meant “of African descent”. Cut a guy a break - geez. Why is everyone always bullying poor Donny.

"advocates race science" means "is a white-supremacist crank trying to piss directly into the hurrican-force winds of science". The specific guy the NYT got their hit piece fodder from is a fan of Richard Lynn, the nincompoop who used to edit Mankind Quarterly, a shitty clearing house for neo-Nazi cranks to publish unscientific eugenicist claptrap. It's small wonder they granted their source anonymity; it makes them look like awful fools for picking up such feeble attack material from a neo-Nazi.
