I've been immersed in research on Reconstruction in Lousiana and it's a very difficult truth to absorb that the white terrorist movement in the South was among the most successful terrorist movements in global history. Took 10 years but it won a total & complete victory through murder and atrocity.

Shell’s refineries expected to make record profits. Profit margins of $42 a barrel, up from $24 a barrel. Cashing in on global conflicts. Bumper payouts for execs and shareholders. Misery for households and businesses. Millions plunged into poverty. Must levy 100% windfall tax.

“Paxton has taken nearly 1,000 trips with a state-funded security detail, costing $3.3 million. The newsrooms’ review of Paxton’s travel records, obtained through the state’s Public Information Act, could only connect 138 of those trips and $553,000 in security costs to state business.”

The US won't even allow US service members to be extradited to countries where they have killed someone to stand trial. Why would they allow the ICC to try someone for war crimes, when they can ignore and cover up those crimes in the US?

Children detained for long stretches are usually sent to the ICE immigrant camp in Dilley, Texas. But the Trump administration has also held children and families for shorter stints in locations that lawyers say are “black boxes,” where families and lawyers cannot find them
