Andrew Bailey also furthered his career by opposing the release of wrongfully imprisoned people and, in the case of #MarcellusWilliams, intervening (against even the wishes of the victim's family) to make sure they were put to death.

#Missouri governor Mike Parson pardoned the McCloskeys (those very fine people in the title photo who pointed guns at peaceful Black Lives Matter protesters) but refused to grant clemency or even commutation to #MarcellusWilliams.

The logic of lynching, indeed.

"[Dahlia] Lithwick and [MarkJoseph] Stern marvel at the degree to which the right-wing justices were 'obsessed with due process and judicial review and the possibility of vindictive prosecution' when it came to Donald, but they gave no such consideration to Marcellus Williams."

"Marcellus Williams was killed by lethal injection on Tuesday, not long after the Republican super-majority, partially engineered by Donald Trump, denied Williams’ request for a stay of execution. The three liberals on the court vehemently dissented."

global aid thwarted,
global amnesia,
siblings and relatives gone forever,
parental worries —
in the face of apex arrogance
and ethnic cleansing by any definition...
still your laughter can be heard
and somehow you are able to smile
O resilient Children of Palestine!
