This ex-cops argument that Ghislaine Maxwell should be transferred to Rikers seems less crazy than you'd think. She should be transferred *somewhere* … https://t.co/9dWGMLv7UT

Time to retract the retraction! Might be misused!
(There does seem to be some fuzziness surrounding shootings of *unarmed* civilians, and also 'suicides by cop')https://t.co/34PuDOAk82 https://t.co/1YUZf1sdZD

I would've expected blacks to be shot more often than whites-but this is in the RETRACTION: "[R]elative to various proxies for the proportion of Black civilians who commit violent crime, Black Americans are not shot more than we would expect. This has been consistently shown…." https://t.co/ROgfAizAoO

So are @voxdotcom people allowed to debate the issue of the day (with no subtweets!) or not? Seems a pretty big issue to take off the table. https://t.co/MGHXNeciX5

Jared will keep fundraising & spending millions on this implausible win-black-voters push. Meanwhile he occupies position in WH guaranteeing that nobody who could run a better campaign will take the job–because you have to fight him and he ain't going anywhere. Recipe for Dem +7

Thanks for reading! Plurality in that poll (36%) still favors "stay at the present level." 64% for same or lower immigration. 34% for more. https://t.co/uw2dKgGtD4

"As notable as the recent rise in state and local minimum wages has been to this effect, it has probably not been as important as the tightening labor market. …They have been important, but they’re most likely not the biggest factor." https://t.co/AKrIjZGVKY https://t.co/SJKejOVxr5

Plus more legal immigration. Basically the end of the hard-won (under Obama & Trump) nascent pay gains for workers at the bottom of the ladder. And Democrats will be doing it, probably in the first 100 days if they get the Senate and WH. https://t.co/6OFaDOZvZA

It was good! I learned a lot and it didn't feel like work. Also made me want to read the book (eg to learn more about Reagan's role in 1986 immigration law failure). https://t.co/OqqI007Apd

IT'S ON BARR: Epstein wasn't jumped in the cafeteria, and cameras didn't save him. Why is Maxwell in a big prison at all, as opposed to some small secret location? The key element the MSM accounts leave out is the gangs that have power in these prisons. https://t.co/mY8sY18uJN https://t.co/9ia2SkgKIc

"Highest-ever security watching Maxwell in jail amid vow to keep her alive"… Let's see. "She'll be shadowed by prison officers' when she moves around the jail and a surveillance camera will be trained on her cell." Does that sound secure to you?

Just realized how the @Voxdotcom mentality fits with cancel culture. Vox stance is basically: 'Here's our explanation. Everything's cool. No need to hear the other side.' Cancel culture follows through and deplatforms the other side.
