And the cost of this is counted in thousands and thousands of lives. FEMA is evacuating people instead of rebuilding. In many different ways, the federal government is failing the people of Puerto Rico.

As Mueller Finds No Collusion, Did Press Overhype Russiagate? Glenn Greenwald vs. David Cay Johnston We don't know what's in the Mueller report. We only know the brief interpretation offered by Bill Barr. But that interpretation opens whole new cans of worms. The standard here should not be beyond a reasonable doubt.
