    I'm just going to say that Omarosa is saying things we already knew to be true because we have eyes and ears BUT the media is acting A LOT different than they did in Sean Spicer interviews.

    Writers... don’t tweet a story you should be sending pitch emails about. The game is the fuckin game, and you will get aggregated by someone quicker on the draw.

    Is this strategy going to help Omarosa with book sales? I was kinda surprised that she had recordings of Trump. I don’t know why I’m surprised by anything happening in that place anymore.

    Omarosa is in one of the most precarious situations that I’ve witnessed recently when it comes to community support. she is alienated from both left and the right. the black community and white community. the only thing sustaining her is the American love of spectacle.

    Good god. The racial slur is on video... "White NYPD cop broke into a black family's Nashville home while they were sleeping because he thought it was his Airbnb, threatened to break the son's neck and called them 'f***ing n***ers'"

    But Williams needed his ID Saturday. Because he didn't remember the man who threatened to kill him less than two months ago. GTFOH.

    Now imagine been a new attorney, already crushed by student loan debt, but still intent on doing low-paying social justice work, and encountering fees like this. You start to see whole other series of barriers.

    Have the released the police report that the officer filed after he assaulted and arrested Dashawn McGrier? I want to see what this officer wrote about the encounter not knowing there was video footage.

    Jeremiah Young, a Maine prisoner, was found dead MSP in April. COD hasn't been disclosed. But at time of death he was in the midst of appealing a lawsuit against MEDOC over harassment, abuse, and death threats

    I can attest to both this fact and that it harms people, including criminal defendants, based on personal experience.

    I tried getting for gov't transparency research and it would have cost $826/month. After a long thread of sales pitches, I got scared off when they told me about their “per-minute” upcharge for looking at state court filings, which they couldn't guarantee were complete.

    Everyone should be able to access information, especially if we want to make informed decisions to change what needs to be changed.

    I've been trying to buy a plan on or for a big project we're working on & it's virtually impossible to do at all, let alone easily or quickly. It's another reminder that access to information is a barrier to structural change that solidifies the status quo.
