Today at @lawdorknews, I delve into the death penalty, looking at three stories — from Alabama, Missouri, and Oklahoma — that illustrate some of its many failings. lawdork.com/p/the-broken-a…
A look at “what happens when states put a single-minded mission of carrying out executions ahead of either humanity or justice.” lawdork.com/p/the-broken-a… The death penalty has been ...
After a botched execution and two botched attempts at executions, including one last week, Alabama’s governor on Monday put a pause on executions.

Big pardon news out of Oregon: "The pardon will remove 47,144 convictions for possession of a small amount of marijuana ..."

More than $14,000,000 in fines and fees will be forgiven as well through this pardon from outgoing Gov. Kate Brown.

Prior's closing speech, a Puck-like, fourth-wall-breaking ending, gets me every time I even read it. There is so much that Kushner, like Shakespeare before him, fit in here. So often, they're the words I need to read. PRIOR: I'm almost done. The fountain's not flowing now, they
Tony Kushner's epic AIDS play can, immediately, feel of the moment, can be a prayer we say tonight. To ourselves, to our loved ones, to those we've lost.

"[T]he dead will be commemorated and will struggle on with the living, and we are not going away."
As I wrote today:

"It is, even if it feels like too much, yet another time for us to prove out Tony Kushner’s claim from Prior Walter at the close of Angels in America that 'the world only spins forward.'"

DEVELOPING: Reported shooting at a gay club in Colorado Springs tonight. Looks like nothing official out yet, but lots of evidence something has happened. Stay safe.
Another local channel and team on this developing story of a shooting at a gay club in Colorado Springs.
Another local station on the scene says any update on this is going to be “a bit longer.” My heart goes out to the LGBTQ community there tonight. Love to you all.

Rich couple from Ohio, per former anti-abortion pastor/advocate, were told the outcome of Hobby Lobby and Alito’s opinion authorship weeks ahead of time. They then told the anti-abortion leader, he says, and his org prepared accordingly. nytimes.com/2022/11/19/us/… In early June 2014, an Ohio couple who were Mr. Schenck’s
