Today in #BernieBashing. Mimi Rocah on MSNBC: "I'm not the political analyst but just as a woman, Sanders makes my skin crawl. I can't identify for you what exactly it is, but just as a woman I see him as a not pro-woman candidate. I don't understand young women who support...
him." I really appreciate that a former DA who has locked up hundreds of women and black and brown people admits she 1. can't stand Sanders 2. Can't identify why. 3. Doesn't understand young women. You make my skin crawl and I *can* identify why. When you're a lawyer and your...

a human being. Instead of going on MSNBC to smear a feminist candidate, why don't you try to make up for your role in locking up trans, black, brown, poor people by doing pro-bono work and representing the people whose lives you ruined. I'm kind of surprised at MSNBC but not...

people you like to put behind bars. And she couldn't believe that anyone said that about Sanders. Then she saw you on MSNBC and got it. I beg people like Mimi to get out of the way, stop tainting feminism by dressing up her carceral moderate politics as anything but personal...
identification with powerful women and neoliberal individualism. Do you think Warren agrees with you? If you respect her, stop tainting someone she's worked with. If you think she's smart and you're "not the political analyst," kindly shut up & sit down and defer to Warren who...
i'm sure cringed at your statements.
Congrats on the Bronx 120. Maybe you can listen to my interview with Alex VItale @avitale and Kraig Lewis @BBOflock. I'm sure you have no idea who Kraig is but he's one of the 120 black and latino men your office rounded up as "gang members." He didn't... soundcloud.com/katie-halper/r…
even live in the Bronx when your office took him from his apartment in the middle of the night in Connecticut where he was getting his MBA. You charged young men with felonies for misdemeanor crimes, thanks to you use of RICO. You ruined families & communities by locking up...
young men who you didn't even accuse of committing violent crimes. We welcome your contempt.
