very compelling story of injustice via fake science and the inertia in court systems that is almost unstoppable:what might stop it is the light of books like this showing some of the fraud perpetrated in courts that was never scientific twitter.com/radleybalko/st…

Incredible story:
-> Philly police permanently forfeit homes of suspected drug users/dealers, no conviction required
-> Homes are auctioned off to highest bidder
-> In some cases those homes are bought by "police officers trying their hands at real estate investment" twitter.com/rw_briggs/stat…

The Barr appointment puts the lie to the notion that Trump ever had any allegiance to criminal justice reform. To the extent that he supports it at all, saving his own ass is far more important. And of course, Barr came after Sessions, the last person you’d appoint for reform.

I try not to get angry about @FDRLST takes because mockery is usually the wiser course, but this is legitimately infuriating. 1/ pic.twitter.com/5G1ZBI1NAx

People who live in cities are more likely to be immigrants or their children. Leading with: “You’ve ruined America & we’re going to deport your parents” is a more fundamental problem for urban GOP outreach than anything mentioned here. nationalreview.com/2018/12/conser…

Do you like when the government unconstitutionally spies on you without a warrant? If you answered yes, then you’re going to love William Barr! twitter.com/justinamash/st…

He’s right! Also, this is completely irrelevant to Trump/Cohen. And he knows that. twitter.com/mkraju/status/…

My question is: Where in Nashville can I get good fried pickles now? Preferably a bar, not a restaurant. And I don't mean chips -- these were SPEARS, which are glorious and oddly hard to come by.

I'm still scandalized by this practice, apparently common in Texas, in which judges merely put their signatures on decisions written by prosecutors. Especially in cases like this one. twitter.com/pamelacolloff/…

My intrepid wife @LilianaSegura and her badass colleague @chronic_jordan have been on this story for 3 years. It's a gobsmacking tale of murder, wrongful conviction, and ineptitude.

Much gratitude to local journalists like @iamstevenhale and @flakebarmer, who serve as media witnesses to state executions, including last night's electrocution. I can't imagine the trauma of watching something like that, but it's so important that they were there.
