Prosecutors Began Investigating Renee Good’s Killing. Washington Told Them to Stop.

You should read this. It is the type of detail that experts in authoritarian regimes see as telling.
In this case, state agents are offered impunity from higher ups, and the legal system is rendered inoperative as a mode of accountability.

The problem here is that Iran entered into negotiations with the Trump administration last year only for the Trump administration ( in collusion with Israel) to attack Iran in the midst of the negotiations and murder the Iranian official who was leading Iran's negotiations with the US . This was a

Judge Calls DOJ's Statements On Slavery Exhibit Display 'Dangerous' And 'Horrifying' Senior U.S. District Judge Cynthia Rufe told the Justice Department's attorneys, "β€œYou can’t erase history once you’ve learned it. It doesn’t work that way.”

The 'cap' in 'no cap' is based on African American English use meaning β€œto boast; exaggerate; lie; insult,” with examples recorded in the mid-1900s.

operated in a legal regime where they were liable to be sued or indicted and yet this didn't have the consequence of making their presidency unable to function. I hope that Trump vs the United States will be overruled. In fact i know it will be overruled but it will probably take 30 years before

Exactly. Bear in mind that prior to Trump there was no Supreme Court case that held that American presidents had complete criminal immunity for official acts ( and official acts is an extremely broad and elastic definition) when they are serving in office so all American presidents prior to Trump

Clinton was sued while in office. Prior to Trump all American presidents operated in a context where citizens could see them while they were in office AND YET this never led to a tsunami of suits which crippled their ability to function while in office as the lawyers for Trump claimed in Trump vs US

If the president cannot be sued while in office, then the president should not be able to file suit while in office. Fair is fair.

Don Lemon was taken into custody by federal agents last night in Los Angeles, where he was covering the Grammy awards. Don has been a journalist for 30 years, and his constitutionally protected work in Minneapolis was no different than what he has always done. The First Amendment exists to protect journalists whose role it is to shine light on the truth and hold those in power accountable. There is no more important time for people like Don to be doing this work.

Instead of investigating the federal agents who killed two peaceful Minnesota protesters, the Trump Justice Department is devoting its time, attention and resources to this arrest, and that is the real indictment of wrongdoing in this case. This unprecedented attack on the First Amendment and transparent attempt to distract attention from the many crises facing this administration will not stand. Don will fight these charges vigorously and thoroughly in court.

NEW | Israel has grazed land in southern Gaza to to concentrate hundreds of thousands of Palestinians in a small area in Rafah β€” equipped with ID checks, surveillance, and facial recognition, according to a retired Israeli general speaking to Reuters.

The camp is planned for Rafah, now under full Israeli military control, and could be used to concentrate Palestinians displaced by renewed Israeli attacks or to funnel people out of Gaza altogether. Israeli ministers are openly preparing for a return to war. β€œWe have to get prepared for the war in Gaza,” cabinet minister Avi Dichter said.

This closely tracks what Drop Site News revealed last week.

In a major investigation, 
@sharifkouddous
 reported on leaked documents showing that the U.S.-led Civil-Military Coordination Center is proposing a so-called β€œplanned community” in Rafah β€” a residential zone built around biometric registration, checkpoints, surveillance of movement and purchases, and political re-engineering programs aimed at normalization with Israel.

The CMCC proposal describes a controlled enclave where Palestinians would be screened, tracked, and managed under Israeli and U.S.-led oversight β€” a panopticon on the ruins of Gaza.

Hamas officials told Reuters the camp plan amounts to cover for forced displacement. Nearly all of Gaza’s 2 million people have already been driven from their homes. Israeli attacks since the ceasefire have killed more than 490 Palestinians, according to the Ministry of Health.
