Former Sec. of State have been accused of civil rights violations. Kissinger for example wiretapped journalists. But, the direct transfer of American citizens to foreign prisons for sentence serving is unparalleled. This decision stands alone. Rubio is now the worst Sec. of State is US History.

Yesterday, Jelly Roll offered a concert at the Rose Bowl for the first responders involved in battling the Los Angeles wildfires.

Incarcerated firefighters were there, alongside everyone else.

I have so much gratitude for the people there, and for the people who helped make this happen.

My interview with Sal Naseem - former IOPC London regional director - is an eye opener:

Policing is violence on an unfathomable scale in the US: “Police in the US use force on at least 300,000 people each year, injuring an estimated 100,000 of them”
Meanwhile, police departments continue to kill on average around 1,200 per year, or over 3 people per day, with many agencies reporting an increase in use of force since the George Floyd uprising. www.theguardian.com/us-news/arti...

Danny Davis returned home on Tuesday after more than 32 years in prison for a murder that he did not commit.

Danny was 20 years old when police forced him to confess, but DNA evidence proved he didn’t do it.

The judge vacated his convictions in the 1992 murder & robbery of a woman in Cairo, IL.

"To determine how many prison beds will be needed in future years, some states actually base part of their projection on how well current elementary students are performing on reading tests"
This is why reading is important. 50% of USians read so poorly that they are unable to perform simple tasks such as reading prescription drug labels. At least 45 million are functionally illiterate; 130 million more can't finish a children's book.
