When/if they are released, they won’t be allowed to become firemen.
Injustice of those in prison fighting wildfires in Cali isn’t just their $1/hr paycheck. Once released, they *can’t get hired as firefighters.* “People spend years saving lives while incarcerated then struggle to find a place to do the same work when free.”sacbee.com/news/state/cal…
Appreciate fellow practitioners pointing out exceptions so that people do know they still can apply for some related jobs:

ATTENTION: This is terrifying. TRAC (@TRACReports) has been the most important data & analysis resource on immigration cases & detention. This month they noticed “serious inconsistencies” making data requested unusable. Immigration authorities *refuse to cooperate to clear up.*
After reviewing the flawed response to routine FOIA request: “TRAC alerted the Executive Office for Immigration Review (EOIR) to the problems uncovered, & attempted to work with the agency. EOIR declined to provide any assurances of the accuracy of the data it had provided.”
“The issues w/ EOIR’s data inconsistencies [are] substantive, ongoing, & in need of prompt attention. Of greatest concern is the apparent lack of commitment to ensure the public is provided with accurate & reliable data” on US immigration proceedings.

Call them out: NY won historic justice reform this past year. Ended cash bail for most crimes. Prosecutors arent just fearmongering to change law back. They’re spending resources training on tricks to subvert the law to jail people that shouldn’t be jailed.theroot.com/when-n-y-ended…
Last year: “Police unions, prosecutors & “law & order” advocates fought the reforms tooth & nail, contending that it would turn NY streets into “the purge.”

Now: Weaponizing tragic crimes to blame on law changes & going round the state training prosecutors on how to subvert law.
Among the tricks Nassau County prosecutor Jed Painter is going around teaching people to keep jailing more people, are tips to make “judges “believe” that suspects were dangerous, thereby giving courts the option of setting a cash bail where it normally wouldn’t be legal.”

What's happening in San Francisco: Big race for District Attorney. Current DA suddenly drops out. Mayor appoints her pick-Suzy Loftus-to be interim DA. Gives her massive advantage. Days before election shes already violating campaign promises not to criminalize poverty. Exh. A:
Here is a charging document dated 10/24. Filed by Suzy Loftus. Pledged to stop the war on drugs. To stop criminalizing poverty. Filed 4 counts. Low level drug possession. Marijuana. Sitting on the street. And the most common charge to justify any force used: resisting arrest.
Here’s what likely happened. Start with count 3. A police officer approaches a man who is homeless sitting on the street. Uses the so-called “sit/lie” infraction (i.e. being homeless) as an opportunity to harass him & search his person.

UNHOLY MINORITY LEXITER COALITION OF THE FAR LEFT AND FAR RIGHT
This post originally shared 12 months and Labour continue to flip-flops a year later. Labour is now an uninhabitable potting shed in the weed-infested corner of some ,soon-to-be-sold-off Parliamentary allotment. /1
Corbyn has thus lined up alongside an otherwise insecure Farage to prop up Brexit and Alex B. de Pfeffel Johnson and his band of electoral pirates and fraudsters. Tory High Command anoint their latest PM by pumping Facebook full of Johnson ads /2
an astonishing 554 versions of these things. Almost as if they're gathering data to rig an election using social media

One question I often get to answer from early career professionals with keen interest for #HR is;

How can I develop myself to start a #career in HR?

I'll share briefly.

Skills & knowledge to develop to kick-start a career in #HumanResource.

A THREAD! #careeradvice
I believe what I'll be sharing will be relevant to you, whether you’re kickstarting your career in #HR or you’re a seasoned HR professional.

I'll share some of the most important HR skills and offer advice on how to cultivate them. #careeradvice
Averagely, there is a common misconception that HR professionals are often unprofessional and tend to abuse power - as much as I don't align with this, I believe those that have been culpable represent themselves and not the profession.

#HR is one of the best careers to pursue.

Robert Mueller took his time – more than two years – as he hired almost two-dozen partisan Democrats (who contributed to the Obama and Clinton campaigns) to join his "objective" truth-finding effort. Here is a breakdown of the invasive colonoscopy he performed on the POTUS:
Over 675 days
Over $30 million dollars
Over 2,800 subpoenas
Over 500 warrants
Over 500 witness interviews, including those whose lives were ruined for offenses unrelated to President Trump
Over a million documents submitted by the White House.

#Khashoggi Case Thread: I am going to ‘pin’ this post to use it as an ‘Info Thread’ on the #Khashoggi Case. I am in #Turkey. I’ve been following the case closely and with access to sources & experts here. This is a very ‘sensitive’ criminal case due to ‘Diplomatic Booby Traps’!!!
The Evidence Obtained Outside Cameras will not show any evidence of ‘tempering’ but other than license plates of dozens of diplomatic cars (Many with tinted windows-large trunks) with related time stamp, drivers Info, model/year: Nothing.
#Turkish Intel-Investigative Bodies also have the list of all Diplomatic & Private Saudi & “other significant’ Planes in #Turkey for the period of ‘interest.’ Many of the Target airports have their own security cameras & related evidence.

(1) The loss by fire of Brazil's National Museum brought to mind the two Getty Center sites in Los Angeles, and other priceless treasure houses around the world.

Politics is central to this issue.

Photo: People gathering around the burnt out museum today in a kind of embrace.
(2) People are constantly telling me that politics doesn't matter, that it's pointless, that they don't need to form a view and act on it.

What a cop out.
(3) You are, of course, free to ignore politics as much as you wish. That's WHY millions have fought and died for the sake of liberty and freedom.

But for most people, if you ignore local, state, national, or international politics, then you're not being part of the solution.

1/ @realDonaldTrump tweeted today that "bad environmental laws" are making #wildfires worse. It's actually #climatechange. Nevada wildfire
@realDonaldTrump 2/ One study found that from 1984 to 2015, #climatechange doubled the area burned by wildfires across the West. hcne.ws/2neGl1c
@realDonaldTrump 3/ Research supports the correlation between #climatechange & #fire seasons that start earlier and end later, with more days of extreme “fire weather.” hcne.ws/2Ju9TFU #Opinion
