    Worked two back to back night court shifts last week. 18 hrs in Brooklyn criminal court. $35k bail set (not including $500k outlier). Witnessed: Prosecutor power. Shame. Fear. Health crises. Court watchers. Lost housing. A judge unwilling to follow law. Resilience. Observations:

    BREAKING: Trump effectively ends asylum in US. Requiring migrants fleeing violence to pay for protection then prohibiting them from working while their cases slowly wind their way thru court makes survival impossible. Raising $$ now for migrant fees here:

    Propaganda.

    Fake families are being formed to cross our border and avoid detention. ICE is working with to stop individuals, networks and organizations facilitating child smuggling and document fraud to illegally enter the U.S.

    Just like a Trump, Attorney General Barr is far worse & lawless than we ever imagined.

    Kim Kardashian had a CBD-themed baby shower. This NY mother was separated from her newborns, forced into substance abuse treatment, & surveilled by ACS, all for smoking marijuana after informing her doctors to help w/ extreme morning sickness.

    “It it wasn’t bad enough, this is just another kick in the teeth for refugees escaping terrible conditions.” What my father texted me this morning when sharing this article about stealing money from asylum seekers & their families. What he said.

    If you have ever thought, “What can I do to help end mass incarceration, reduce injustice in criminal courts, and/or hold the powerful accountable,” volunteer for .

    Saw volunteers from in audience. Always so encouraging to see. I went up & introduced myself. Said I was happy to answer any questions. When bail was set on one of clients who’d lose his shelter, they came out to share frustration. They said they’d share the story.

    Under Lindsay Graham’s logic, no attempt crimes would be crimes.

    The newly minted Lindsay Graham"I don't care" standard: "I don’t care what they talked about. He didn’t do anything. The point is the president did not impede Mueller from doing his investigation."

    I did not think that was a good 1.5 hours of TV. Way too many main characters still alive. I couldn’t see anything. Jon & Dany riding dragons away from the fight the whole episode was annoying. I still don’t get why Bran matters. And I thought the Night King was gonna awaken Ned!

    Your own network gives airtime to conspiracy theorists. You allow nonexperts to spout BS about climate change and give chronic liars a platform. Then you, Brian, quote a historian who is basically telling journalists not to do this crap. The hypocrisy is impressive.

    Ron Chernow summarized the mood of the 2019 dinner in one line: "We now have to fight hard for basic truths that we once took for granted." Here's my recap from the ballroom...

    The man loathes Black people & is terrified of criticism. This is why he won’t honor this year’s National Teacher of the Year. He’s a small, hateful creature.

    Many people waiting in the cells were sick from withdrawal. Loud, violent vomiting in the cells behind the courtroom all night. It was hard to interview clients over the noise. One older man almost vomited while in front of judge. Court reporter laughed in relief when he didn’t.

    Speaking of cuffs: Everyone, whether or not theres any reason to believe they may do something violent, is brought out in front of the judge w/ their hands cuffed behind their back. When they have to sign something, they're asked which hand they use. They sign. Cuffs back on.

    Within a day of requesting bail be set on 2 cases of individuals w/ mental health & substance abuse issues, prosecutors called me to ask about treatment offers. Far better than incarceration. Unfortunately, they’re now jailed & will be for weeks minimum while evaluated & placed.

    Withdrawal symptoms & dope sickness are common at arraignments. Often people will ask to go the hospital. Others try to push thru so their appearance doesn't get delayed. It's a horrible thing. Real human suffering. Nothing I can do about it, but acknowledge how bad it must feel.

    A conviction in NY for possession of any quantity of a controlled substance (even residue) could bar you from public housing for 4 years.

    Vera’s President, , penned this op-ed on the importance of housing after incarceration almost three years ago – and while progress has been made, the problem still persists.

    .: Democrats shouldn’t talk about reparations in 2020. Focus on kitchen-table issues. Me: Remedying hundreds of years of plundered wealth is a kitchen-table issue for many people’s kitchens.
