Loving my stay in beautiful Snowdonia, Wales, already. 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁷󠁬󠁳󠁿 As if the surroundings aren't beautiful enough, we were in the tiny local old 18th century village pub last night and met a sheep farmer called Aled. I think I'll stay here permanently. 😊🥰 #ILoveSheep 🐑🐑🐑

Hundreds of people from across Illinois came to the capitol to tell our legislators that our communities have suffered from unaffordable money bonds & rampant pretrial jailing for far to long, we must have #PretrialFairnessNow!

Take action: https://actionnetwork.org/letters/tell-your-legislator-to-see-the-pretrial-fairness-act-through-to-implementation

Tell Your Legislator to See the Pretrial Fairness Act Through to Implementation!

Last year, communities across Illinois worked with our state legislators to pass the Pretrial Fairness Act, a law that will end money bond and ensure that no one is jailed while awaiting trial simply because they can’t afford to purchase their freedom. The Pretrial Fairness Act will improve community safety and make our pretrial system more fair, but some are attacking legislators who voted for the Pretrial Fairness Act and trying to intimidate them into rolling it back or repealing it before it goes into full effect! Use this form to send this letter to your legislator letting them know you want them to stand strong against calls to roll back or repeal the Pretrial Fairness Act! Together, we can protect this historic policy change that will expand pretrial freedom and justice throughout Illinois!

So here are the two charts you need to win any argument over whether gun laws matter.

1. America, with more guns than any other high income nation, is a wild outlier of gun violence.

2. States with stronger gun laws have much less gun crime.

yesterday donald trump, the former president and the leading, declared republican candidate for president, met with a white supremacist. the story is not on the front page of the ny times and is in fact buried on page A20. but the front page has a story on "gangnam style."

Here's the thing: The press needs to distinguish between oversight conducted in good faith and in the public interest, and sham investigations/obvious abuses of the process.

If media coverage doesn't make that clear next year, it will be disastrous.
