Wish MSM would stop talking about how Trump "must" juggle a "busy schedule."

1. Running for President is OPTIONAL. He can stop any time.

2. The man is under CRIMINAL indictment for trying to OVERTHROW US democracy (among other things).

3. He's a rapist. Somehow that really important point keeps eluding discussion of him--or is discussed as an afterthought.

But, yeah, let's worry about *poor* Trump having to *juggle his schedule.* (read: extreme sarcasm)

Thanks so much to everyone who's donated to Highland Wool's fundraiser.

Here is one of the pieces that they're raising funds to buy and restore. Isn't it beautiful?

Their target is £7000 to purchase, repair and transport this carder to the Highlands from south Scotland, along with a wool picker and assorted other pieces of equipment.

Awesome news! They broke through the £1000 mark this morning! Keep sharing and let's bring this beauty back into use!

Interesting article:

There are 2.2 million human beings confined in prison and jail cells in the United States tonight. About 500,000 of them are presumptively innocent and awaiting trial, the vast majority are confined by the government solely because they can't pay enough money to buy their release. This country has 5% of the world’s population, but 25% of the world’s prisoners—the highest rate of human caging of any society in recorded history of the modern world. At least another 4.5 million people are under government control through probation and parole “supervision.”

Between 80% and 90% of people charged with crimes are so poor that they can't afford a lawyer. Twenty-five years into America’s incarceration boom, black people were incarcerated at a rate 6 times that of South Africa during apartheid. The incarceration rate for black people in the nation’s capital, where I live, is 19 times that of white people.
