This otherwise excellent story made me realize that Rage Against the Machine’s first album came out 30 years ago, which is far back as the early 60s were when I first listened to Rage Against the Machine. — PolitiTweet.org

We examined 27 clemencies granted by Trump and backed by the network. What we found: * at least 4 of the recipients, or their families, had donated to groups in the network * several others retained lawyers/lobbyists in the network. * at least 6 were denied clemency under Obama — PolitiTweet.org

NEW w/@kenvogel: Behind one in ten Trump pardons was an informal network of lawyers, lobbyists, activists and Orthodox Jewish leaders who had worked with Trump administration officials on criminal justice legislation championed by Jared Kushner. https://t.co/LNJnByXNfp — PolitiTweet.org

Weinstein stole more than $200 million, according to prosecutors. Virtually none of it was returned. Nearly every victim and law enforcement source I spoke to believe Weinstein hid money offshore before his arrest. Now he’s free. — PolitiTweet.org

Then there was a fairy godfather, Barry Wachsler, a Long Island businessman, who invested substantial $ In Weinstein’s appeals and clemency effort... along with other people whose motives remain unclear. https://t.co/JJgD85ruov — PolitiTweet.org

As @kenvogel and I report today, Alan Dershowitz took up Weinstein’s cause at the urging of a Jewish prisoners-rights group, arguing that Weinstein’s sentence was excessive. He told one victim: “In Europe and Israel his sentence would have been 5 years.” — PolitiTweet.org

The man in question, Eliyahu Weinstein, was perhaps the most notorious white-collar fraudster in the history of New Jersey. He ran a Ponzi scheme that thrust a synagogue into foreclosure. Out on bail, he did a second fraud to pay for his legal defense. But he had allies... — PolitiTweet.org

@lpolgreen @tomgara Which is to say Substack is revealing a market more than it is creating one. — PolitiTweet.org

@lpolgreen @tomgara I think of substack as cable unbundling for media. It reveals what the market really is for certain kinds of content. Most of us are better off in the bundle! — PolitiTweet.org

NEW: If she signed a letter to Trump supporting clemency for the man who stole from her, his supporters would arrange for her to be paid $100,000. Inside the network of lawyers, activists & well-connected rich guys who lobbied Trump to free fraudsters. https://t.co/MZ0V2vVBhL — PolitiTweet.org

"Dark money" is a term best avoided, but if I had to define it, I would say 501(c)4/5/6 groups that spent most of their money on what a normal person would say is campaign activity; have no real organic people membership; do little except deliver campaign advertising. — PolitiTweet.org

Why are so few attacks on Asian-Americans prosecuted as hate crimes? It's complicated, @nicole_hong & @Jonesieman report. And some criminal justice activists oppose more funding for policing and prosecution. https://t.co/7vigYmwjht — PolitiTweet.org
