Everyone should be talking about this and the people in Mississippi found buried behind a jail. People whose families were actively looking for them.

Where is it?

Mississippi gave millions of dollars of welfare funds to former NFL quarterback Brett Favre to build a volleyball facility for his daughter’s school, but they won’t take federal funds to feed hungry children. Because helping poor kids is the kind of welfare that Republicans hate.

The U.S. and British militaries were bombing more than a dozen sites used by the Iranian-backed Houthis in Yemen on Thursday, in a massive retaliatory strike, several U.S. officials told The Associated Press. https://t.co/Q4ncDScZ0K

Another wave of Jan 6 arrests is being made this week.

Justice Dept has updated its total number of prosecutions in Capitol riot: "More than 1,265 individuals have been charged in nearly all 50 states for crimes related to the breach of the U.S. Capitol"

The entire party is bereft of so-called ‘moderates’ and is beyond parody.

Kevin Wallace says Trump's financial statements were false in every year from 2011 to 2021 — false by as much as $2.2 billion.

[David Ferrell @davidwferrell]

Why does @MSNBC keep repeating the lie that there were "no victims" of Trump's business fraud in NY?

The victims were all those who filled out honest, accurate loan applications and got denied funding while the precious capital went to a con man.

This must be the benchmark for EVERY candidate...

[David Axelrod @davidaxelrod]

Both candidates asked to critique the frontrunner, Trump, and each offered policy quibbles.
But no mention of January 6th; election lies; of invocation of violence; mishandling of classified docs; and 91 indictments--the mention of which they apparently deem taboo.

[Fifty Shades of Whey @davenewworld_2]

215 bodies were found in unmarked graves behind a jail in Mississippi. This is horrifying. The families were never notified. There should be a much bigger public reaction to this story.

[Laurence Tribe 🇺🇦 ⚖️ @tribelaw]

Sec 3 draws a sharp line btw law and politics. The first part is a legal command about who cannot hold office that doesn’t demand action by Congress. But the second allows “Congress by a vote of 2/3 of each House” to lift a disqualification. The framers gave Congress — not POTUS or SCOTUS — power to grant a Sec 3 waiver on policy grounds:

The gap between the change in productivity and compensation is what the GOP has allowed billionaires to steal from you.

They aren't working harder or smarter than 40 years ago. You are. They're just keeping all your money.
