During Maria's Smartmatic deposition she stated that she is being paid $70M from 2014 to the end of her contract in 2025.

Affordability isn't an issue for her.

Lying will get her a new, better paying contract.
How many of you out there have been getting a nice slice of that $18 trillion Trump brought in for us?

NEWS: Dan Richman — key figure in now-dismissed Comey case — wins motion for return of materials seized from his devices.

Judge finds his rights were violated, orders that DOJ can only access data pursuant to lawful warrant.

Order could complicate efforts to re-indict Comey.

Dan Richman is a professor at Columbia Law School and a leading authority on criminal procedure—not exactly an ideal target for Fourth Amendment violations.

I’d love to see what his Crim Pro exam looks like this year.

It's almost like Republicans have been lying for decades about parental rights vs government control.

Kids are tech smart. You can't keep them off of social media. They will find a way.

Republicans need to address real issues instead of this pablum.

The world's richest 0.001% now control 3x as much wealth as the entire bottom half of humanity combined.

56,000 wealthy individuals have more than roughly 4 billion people.

Read that back.
Just 0.001% hold three times the wealth of poorest half of humanity, report finds
Data from World Inequality Report also showed top 10% of income-earners earn more than the other 90%

A Purple Heart veteran was deported despite risking everything to serve our country

DHS Sec. Kristi Noem denied veterans were being deported, but the facts tell a different story

How we treat those who defended us is a test of our democracy
