why would anyone ever hand it to literally jeanine pirro
The leader tells a lie everyone knows is a lie, and the machinery of the state sets about forcing the rest of us to repeat it—all the way to the felony prosecution of an innocent bystander. trib.al/HlX7AZm
Think Jeanine Pirro Acted Honorably in the Hearn Case? Think Again.

This administration has been hellbent on silencing Mahmoud Khalil.

I met with him today to hear updates on his and Leqaa's cases.

The administration tried to make him disappear, but he’s in the halls of Congress advocating and speaking out 💪🏽

Our founders, though deeply flawed, understood that democracy requires an informed citizenry and a government accountable to it people. That’s why the press is the only profession protected by the Constitution. It’s also why autocrats and oligarchs seek to control and destroy it.

There would have been a whole lot of complaining about that decision to go for it on 4th-and-2 if the Lions failed.

Instead, crickets.

Dan Campbell's process is sound. He and the players can live with the results. They play to win. The aggressiveness pays off once again.
