Tomorrow, a certain online mega-retailer launches a book sale, just days before Indie Bookstore Day on 4/26. This is no coincidence; Bookstore Day is one of the largest revenue drivers for indies.

Indies need our support to thrive & build community spaces for all...mega-retailers do not.

Iโ€™ve discounted most of the books in my Pango bookstore (some signed and special editions too). Iโ€™m gonna keep everything up for a few more days and pull everything that hasnโ€™t sold this weekend! Lots of books from $2-$5 dollars (including some signed!). #booksky pangobooks.com/bookstore/sh...

Todd Blanche
Deputy Attorney General
United States Department of Justice

Dear Deputy Attorney General Blanche,
The Department placed each of us on administrative leave ostensibly to review our, and
the Southern District of New York U.S. Attorney's Office's, handling of the Adams case. It is now clear that one of the preconditions you have placed on our returning to the Office is that we must express regret and admit some wrongdoing by the Office in connection with the refusal to move to dismiss the case. We will not confess wrongdoing when there was none.
We have served under Presidents of both parties, advancing their priorities while pursuing
justice without fear or favor. The role of a career prosecutor is not to set policy. But a prosecutor must abide by the oath to uphold the Constitution and laws of the United States and the rules of professional ethics set by the bar and the courts. The Department has long understood that these duties can and should coexist with the need to follow Department policies and orders. This is to the benefit of all: the courts, defendants, and the public, who can have confidence in the good faith and judgment of line prosecutors; the Department, which retains credibility while still receiving zealous advocacy from its lawyers; and the prosecutors themselves, who can stand in court confident that they are ethically carrying out their duties.
Now, the Department has decided that obedience supersedes all else, requiring us to abdicate our legal and ethical obligations in favor of directions from Washington. That is wrong.
Serving in the Southern District of New York has been an honor. There is no greater privilege than to work for an institution whose mandate is to do the right thing, the right way, for the right reasons. We will not abandon this principle to keep our jobs. We resign.
Sincerely,
Celia V. Cohen

As someone who was automatically assumed to be a potential teen mom on welfare two generations ago, I am deeply offended by the far right obsession with teen fertility.

I know they couldn't care less about Black fertility or maternal health. But this obsession with (white) teen pregnancy is CREEPY.

Listen, the Pope was fine, but at any point, he could have called to release a *little* of the 177 million acres of land that the Catholic Church has stolen from Native people in America, too.

Itโ€™s all words and poetics until real sacrifices have to get made, eh?
