New in PN: Roger Marshall is running an all time terrible campaign "After decades of crawling further and further into the orifice of the right-wing media bubble, GOP candidates no longer know how to distinguish truth from propaganda, much less how to persuade skeptical voters."

Trump is coming to San Antonio Wednesday. I invited him to the Dilley Trailer Prison. He should face the children he’s traumatizing. Can the president look these innocent children in the eyes and tell them they deserve to be there?

We can extrapolate based on the amount of people on death row who have been exonerated and released that at least 3-5% of them are innocent. Having it in place simply as a method of revenge for families is not worth even one of their lives. Not even close.
