2/ Groups have shadow sides just as individuals do, and when a character defect is on full display it’s an opportunity to face it, deal with it, heal it and evolve beyond it.

1/ From neo Nazi communities to cars flowing into groups of peaceful protesters to mass shootings, our problem with violence is growing. And it will continue to grow until we face it for what it is: a character defect that’s been part of the American psyche from the beginning.

The argument that he’s not a journalist is invalid. Do you call everyone at Fox News a journalist?

True. My point was that classification is being misused at times to hide government malfeasance & that’s a serious problem. My point about her was largely about how she was treated, and others are treated, in the US prison system. (See article)

Some things of course need to be classified & kept secret. But things aren’t supposed to be classified just because it’s inconvenient to officialdom for them to be known. We’ve found out about torture, war crimes, gratuitous civilian casualties from leaks of classified documents.

Also, evidence that Russians were trying to hack the election shouldn’t be “highly classified material.” 50 million classified documents a year has more to do with government secrecy than with national security.

Scoop: I obtained private chats between an ex-Marine leading a popular neo-Nazi channel on Telegram and a group of his followers making serious plans to move en-masse to Maine and make a white ethnostate. Even discussed a “Nazi home owners association.” vice.com/en/article/n7b7pb/l…

The draconian treatment of #RealityWinner is repeated daily in the lives of hundreds of thousands, perhaps millions of people. Institutional cruelty within our criminal justice and prison systems is in direct contradiction to everything we are meant to be. thedissenter.org/mother-of-n…

The senator wants a constitutional amendment to ban flag burning. I’d rather see a constitutional amendment banning money in politics and establishing public funding for all federal campaigns. thehill.com/homenews/senate/…

Regarding suspected crimes of Trump’s AG Bill Barr, It’s good to remember Nixon’s AG John Mitchell served 19 months in prison for his role in the Watergate scandal - and so did a few other Nixon aides. Justice must be committed to and pursued now too. #TrumpGate
