Donald Trump's Police State … he wants to abolish the constitutional rights of blacks and Hispanics.

Did Trump lie in a debate with Jeb Bush, or did he lie in court?

There is one other possibility: he could have lied both times.

Trump promised fossil fuel executives he would give them everything they want. Even more than Clinton would give them.

Since Trump makes a habit of lying, he might have lied to them. But we cannot take that for granted.

US citizens: call for the US government to pressure North Carolina to repeal its law restricting release of videos made by thugs.

The new law prohibits release of thug videos without a court order.

The ACLU explains why the thug videos showing the killing of Keith Scott ought to be published.

A former UK soldier says that he planted listening devices in the homes of suspected IRA terrorists, and those devices are probably still operating.

And he says he was sent on a mission to shoot two of them dead, because they were believed to be about to go shoot soldiers.

It is legitimate for a court to order surveillance of specific criminal suspects, but I don't think the army bothered to make it legitimate in that way.

It is legitimate to take action to stop a killing, but outside of war, "kill them first" is the wrong action to take.
