And then a few hours go by and he comes out and says "no, I did the crazy thing on purpose."
And repeat.
And the media never seems to remember that.
"The trip actually took place in South Dakota, on the Pine Ridge Indian Reservation, where collecting fossils on reservation land without explicit tribal permission is considered looting." Prosecute.

This is Maria, a 6-year-old detained by ICE last year.
She began to unravel soon after arriving at a detention center in Texas, wetting the bed after years without accidents, crying through the night and begging to breastfeed again.
Most of all, she wanted to be reunited with her cat, Milo. 1/

jeeproject@yahoo.comRe: federal sex trafficking and states with lower ages of consent J J. Epstein <jeeproject@yahoo.com> to Mitch Webber <mwebber@law.harvard.edu> let's also look at sex tourism laws.. going someplace with specific intent ot have underage sex --- Mitch Webber mwebber@law.harvard.edu wrote: Mr. Epstein I'm sorry little con about what you were asking on the phone. I se what you were asking now. The question is: what would happen if one were to transport a minor for sex -- or transport oneself with the intent to have sex with a minor- into a state in which the age of consent is below eighteen (assuming the minor is above the age of consent in the given state)? And your intuition was right. The answer is that there is no violation of law.
From 2019 to 2021, Mitch served as Associate Counsel and Special Assistant to the President in the Office of White House Counsel, where he advised and responded to congressional and other oversight of the President, senior White House staff, and several departments and agencies. In January 2021, Mitch was appointed to a five-year term on the United States Holocaust Memorial Council, the governing body of the United States Holocaust Memorial Museum in Washington, where he serves on the Audit Committee and the Committee on Holocaust Denial and State- Sponsored Antisemitism. Mitch is also a member of the board of directors of the Louis D. Brandeis Center for Human Rights Under Law.
Mitchell D Webber, a partner at the Law firm Paul Weiss, using his Harvard email, asked about sex tourism targeting children.
He sits on the board of the Louis D. Brandeis Center for Human Rights Under Law.
Maria is one of hundreds of children, who β like Liam Ramos β have been held at a Texas detention facility where parents say children languish as theyβre served contaminated food, receive little education and struggle to obtain basic medical care.

ICE is still doing checkpoints in Minneapolis like we are an occupied territory. Life remains really hard here thanks to Trump's thugs.
