Listening to Van Jones praise Trump for the criminal justice reform feels “different”
How so?Van Jones has been funny in the light.
Congress's Criminal Justice Reform Act boosts privatization, fails to dismantle mass incarceration, nor does it implement sentencing reform. We speak to Eddie Conway and Natasha Pratt Harris about the proposed reform

Solution to overcrowded prisons: build more prisonsPrison reform turns out to be “build more prisons”
More jails, more guns, less schools.......... AmericaSolution to overcrowded prisons: build more prisons
Solution to mass shootings: more guns
Solution to poor schools: keep kids home
This is a win period. Objectively good legislation that could have been better, but could not have been at all also. Trump is signing it I'll give him that....
“The Socialist opposition and Greens wanted a trophy and have it”, said David Clarinval, chairman of the liberal Reform Movement party.
Following the departure of the New Flemish Alliance (N-VA), the largest of the coalition government’s four parties, Michel had appealed to the federal parliament to back a minority administration until the country held its general election next May.
Michel was seeking a “coalition of good will” to see him through until the poll of 26 May, warning that the country would be otherwise left rudderless for months should his government fall.
But in a dramatic day in the Belgian parliament, the Socialist party refused to countenance such a proposal.
During an evening sitting of the chamber, Michel told MPs in response that he would be offering his resignation to the King.
“My call did not convince,” Michel said. “It was not heard. I have decided to resign and go to the King immediately.”
In answer to calls for an early election, Michel refused, saying it would only lead to “stagnation for the whole of 2019”.
As MPs applauded, the prime minister buttoned his waistcoat, picked up his briefcase, shook the hands of a number of government ministers, and left.
Michel was subsequently asked by the King to be a caretaker prime minister, with reduced powers, while parliament seeks to construct a new alliance of parties that can take the reins of power. It is expected that the talks with parties will take several days but that a election will be held in the new year.
The N-VA, a Flemish nationalist party with hardline views on immigration, walked out of the government earlier this month over Michel’s signature to a UN migration pact providing for a common global approach to migrant flows.
The draft UN accord lays down 23 objectives to open up legal migration and better manage a global flow of 250 million people, 3% of the world population.
The US dropped out of talks on the pact last year and countries including Italy, Hungary, Austria, Poland, Bulgaria, Slovakia and Australia have rejected it. The deal is expected to be ratified at the UN headquarters in New York on 19 December.
A-men!More jails, more guns, less schools.......... America
Pass legislation to take attention off your entire hand pick team going to jail 1 by 1 while they get completely undone with nothing more than sex from a troll looking spy
For those who think the only punishment is the Foundation dissolving
While it's true government will misuse tax payer money from time to time
But on the whole it makes a lot more sense than counting on accountability and transparency from a private organization.
