    Fifty years ago this summer, President Richard Nixon declared a war on drugs. Today it is questionable whether anyone won the war. Yet the loser is clear: Black Americans, their families and their communities.http://apne.ws/yU342hi

        three biggest recipients of private prison money are some familiar names: Senator Cory Gardner (R), Senator Mitch McConnell (R) and Trump. it’s easy to see why private prisons are spending heavily to elect Republicans this November: The future of their business depends on it.
