Nixon Policy Advisor Admits He Invented War On Drugs to Suppress ‘Anti-War Left and Black People’
Dan Baum, writing in support of drug legalization at Harper’s, has unleashed a frank 1994 quote from former Nixon policy advisor John Ehrlichman, and as inadvertently salient an argument for legalizing drugs as any I’ve ever seen:

6-Year-Old Girl Taken From Longtime California Foster Family for Being 1/64 Native American – NBC News
Six-year-old Lexi was removed from the home of the family she has been living with for four years because of the Indian Child Welfare Act of 1978.
Although I support the spirit of Indian Child Welfare Act this is absolutely horrid; a perfect example of what a miscarriage of justice is.

Five deputies Who Escorted Sucker-Punched Protester at Trump Rally Suspended.
The Cumberland County Sheriff’s deputies were punished over their “failure to act” at the rally in Fayetteville, N.C.
A suspension is good. Being fired immediately would have been more appropriate though. Don’t do your job? Get fired, face charges for wasting tax-payer resources and lose your pension. Simple. No other job on the planet would continue to pay you when you are not performing your duties.
An officer who takes tax-payer money in the form of his or her uniform, gun, badge, car, and paycheck and then does live up to their end of the deal has committed fraud and should be prosecuted for it.

If those assholes can’t keep simple lists straight, how the fuck are they supposed to keep anyone safe? I sincerely hope anyone involved in vetting that list and the officers who actually denied entry to Adams have all been fired for incompetence, dereliction of duty (and bad, bad, bad, seriously fuck up shit that needed to run smoothly, piss poor diplomacy – which isn’t their job but it should sure as hell be there job not to fuck up!) by now.
‘Irish slaves’: the convenient myth
The conflation of indentured servitude with chattel slavery in the ‘Irish slaves’ narrative whitewashes history in the service of Irish nationalist and white supremacist causes. Its resurgence in the wake of Ferguson reflects many Americans’ denial of the entrenched racism still prevalent in their society.

Why Liberals Need to STFU and think before they speak
Why Hillary Clinton should tap Elizabeth Warren for VP now
This article is perfect example of why liberals and progressives never get anything done. Warren in the White House means no Warren in the Senate. What the fuck would that accomplish? Other than nothing, of course… For starters we’d be sown one strong D Senator…
Fucking liberals…
