Kathleen Folbigg spent 20 years in The Nick for crimes she's now been Acquitted of. Think about that. I wonder how those jurors feel now. Jury trials are and always have been problematical, especially when you consider that high profile cases are pre-tried in the media.
Five horses killed at Golden Gate Fields in 12 days. CHRB needs to step in an shut down immediately. This is a ludicrous amount of animal killing for gambling profits. 1 is too many. #Shutdowngoldengatefields
A lawyer for the family of the man killed by Nadine Menendez said they never heard from the senator or his then-girlfriend about the crash. Via @isaacstanbecker: https://t.co/goDhQd7nOI
Look I’m not saying that the reporting that Commander only bites Secret Service agents is true, I’m simply saying that here’s what happened when I met him.
2/2 He had a gun that fell out of his waistband as he jumped down off her car. He then headbutted her with the visor of his helmet,as she fights back despite him being armed & she being way outnumbered. “She is @UberEats driver with 2 kids in car because babysitter to costly.”
New data from @SenateFinance shows nearly 1,000 ultrarich individuals sometimes didn’t even bother to file federal taxes.

How did so many forget that Trump had the presidency, DOJ and a majority in the senate and house for 2 years and fixed none of the problems republicans are still complaining about?
Sepideh Rashono, arrested & tortured for protesting mandatory hijab last year, just shared a photo without it, declaring: "I'll appear in court like this, defending womanhood. I'm aware of the pressure on my family, but loyalty to the truth is paramount." These are the women of #WomanLifeFreedom.
The media simply can’t handle this moment in American history. Here’s the only story that matters:
The Republican front runner for President is a criminal fascist who wants to end democracy and the rule of law.
That’s it. Stop treating this like a normal election.
Why did a state trooper feel comfortable walking up to a child and breaking his eye socket? There's a crisis in police culture that politicians are deliberately failing to address. Unchecked power dynamics in policing is leading to acts of violence against children.
WARNING: GRAPHIC ⚠️ A police officer in Delaware has been arrested for assaulting a 15-year-old and fracturing his orbital socket.
Dempsey Walters, 29, turned off his body cam before striking a child who was handcuffed in the back of a car, but it still recorded the video.
THREAD. One of the biggest distractions for liberals with respect to every bad government bureaucracy is the illusion that more "training" will solve problems. Police, prosecutors, prison guards, and judges don't break the law and do bad things because they are poorly trained.
👇🏻👀 Facebook gave police private messages between mother and teen daughter that led both to be convicted for abortion after 20 weeks. The mother was sentenced to 2 years.

BREAKING: Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman is asked directly to his face about the corrupt $2 billion "investment" that Saudi Arabia pumped into Jared Kushner's firm after Trump left office — and his response is an absolute disaster.
The prince sat down for an interview with Fox News host Bret Baier asked him directly about the money, which was clearly payback for the huge favors Kushner did for the Saudis while he was in the White House.
Not only did the Trump administration give massive weapons deals to Saudi Arabia, they ignored the kingdom's brutal murder and dismemberment of journalist Jamal Khashoggi.
"In the Trump administration, you had a really close relationship with the president's senior advisor and son-in-law Jared Kushner," said Baier. "After he left, Saudi fund made reportedly a two billion dollar investment in Jared's new fund he was launching and managing."
"Do you think that sends the wrong message even if there wasn't a tit for tat, an 'I'll give you this and you get that'?" asked Baier.
"We look to opportunities and investment," said bin Salman. "We have a lot of investment around the globe with a lot of peoples and with economic opportunity."
"So if Trump becomes president again you'll leave the two billion with Jared Kushner?" asked Baier.
"It's a commitment that PIF [Public Investment Fund, the sovereign wealth fund of Saudi Arabia] have and when PIF have commitment with any investor around the globe, they keep it," said the prince.
In other words, if Donald Trump wins reelection the Saudis will be able to directly exploit the massive sum of money they gave to his son-in-law to influence American foreign policy — even more than the already have.
"Would it affect your decisions with a new Trump administration with that sitting there?" asked Baier.
"Well... Saudi Arabia is so big so I'm quite sure mostly any person around the world directly or indirectly you have something to do with Saudi Arabia," said bin Salman.
"So if that can affect President Trump's decision if he becomes a president that mean it can affect every president in the world and every person in the world's decision because directly or indirectly they have some sort of interest or something to do with Saudi Arabia," the prince added.
In other words, Saudi economic corruption is a powerful global force that affects more than just Donald Trump and Jared Kushner.
Crucially, bin Salman did NOT deny the fact that he influences both men.
A vote for Donald Trump is a vote to give Saudi Arabia total control over the U.S. government and its military.
Please retweet and ❤️ if you demand a full investigation into Jared Kushner — and consider joining the growing exodus to Tribel, a “woke” new Twitter competitor that is exploding in popularity because it banned Trump for life and because Elon Musk banned Tribel’s Twitter account — but he forgot to ban this link to download the new Tribel app: https://t.co/HnJzSKjCwX
