Kyle Griffin MSNBC:
Rep. Schiff and 11 House Dems are urging Education Dept. to investigate if GOP actions to ban books, block access to American history lessons, and silence LGBTQ+ individuals in schools constitutes a legal violation of students' first amendment rights and civil rights protections.

Michael Cohen's lawyer says NY case against Trump is 'very solid' and likely jurors need only ask themselves if Trump had 'any political motivation' for the Stormy Daniels payment

At first I thought it unfortunate the first Trump indictment would be for covering up hush money to a porn star. What of Trump’s major crimes against democracy? But this first indictment does capture the base grossness and vulgarity of Trump the man. Which is, in a way, fitting.

Taiwanese President Tsai Ing-wen and her Guatemalan counterpart, Alejandro Giammattei, observed an ancient ritual before a massive Mayan pyramid. The two shook hands there and vowed to maintain strong ties in the face of a diplomatic offensive by China https://u.afp.com/iXsr

What the fucking fuck? The QAnon Shaman is being released waaaaay ahead of his 41-month sentence for trying to overthrow the damned government. This is white-man justice.

#LongCovid folks, including anyone w/symptoms lingering at least 12 weeks after #Covid, do you have a few mins to participate in this study on the employment and financial impact of your symptoms? It’s organized by Katie Bach at the Brookings Institution, who has done great work on the economic impact of Long Covid.
No geographic restrictions; roughly 10 mins (I found it shorter, even), but also allows for breaks if needed, just leave browser open!
Boosts appreciated!

A federal judge lifts a local book ban in Llano County, Texas, citing constitutional problems.
One of the books Republican activists wanted removed was apparently offensive because it called the KKK a terrorist group, if you wanted some idea of where Texas Republicans are headed.

If I ever get indicted and need be arrested, I hope I get to make an appointment to be arrested.
Have a feeling I would be hauled out in the middle of the night in my Fruit of the Looms, though.
People of privilege and substance get so many privileges regular folk don't.

Went out for mudbugs for dinner tonight. They were amazing. Took some home to my little neighbor to try. She loved them and will come with us the next time we go.

I’m going to assume you’re making a threat if you say indicting trump sets “a dangerous precedent”.
The type of person saying that shit wanted Clinton to go to prison for lying about a blow job.

DEADLY TORNADO!
A tornado touched down in Northwest Little Rock Friday afternoon and left destruction in its wake. Billboards are down, buildings are damaged and trees are completely uprooted. Reports on injuries or deaths are not yet available.

They need to stop pushing their religion on the rest of us. It isn't fair, it isn't nice, and it isn't doing anything to heal the divisions between us.
