"In the invitation-only room of about 300 people, only about 10 students will be admitted from Benedict College, which is hosting the event...More than half of the seats were reserved for guests and allies of the administration."
Students were told to stay in their dorm rooms between 1 and 4.
Trump spoke at the historically black Benedict College in South Carolina: "Benedict College spokeswoman Kymm Hunter told the W.H. press pool nine students were confirmed to attend, although two had ROTC training, so seven attended the president's remarks."

Tell that to my MIL who does it all the time But...how? Some people disable passcodes. Or set phone to lock only after incredible amount of time of inactivity. So phone is basically always unlocked and ready to butt dial

Hey hey hey now. Some lawyers have unlocked phones 😬 and manage not to butt dial anyone. 😋 YET!! Lock that shit up, Giuliani Junior. I’m shooketh by unlocked phones. I’ve been living that locked phone life forever and ever due to work email and HIPAA. And now that I have a separate work phone my personal is still locked because my child is a menace to society. He knows never to touch my phone but I’m not risking it.

I CAN NOT.
I'm sorry, truly, but I am honestly still shook about Elijah Cummings. Every time I remember he is gone it hits me all over again bc I still just can't believe this giant of a man is gone. I sent cards to his staff and to the OGR staff today bc I just can't imagine how they are feeling.

At this point, I wouldn’t even blink if this was an actual headline. I would just nod my head and think: sounds about right.

This is also impeachable Trump called Mattis in summer 2018 and directed him to "screw Amazon" out of $10 billion cloud contract. "Relaying the story to us during Small Group, Mattis said, 'We're not going to do that. This will be done by the book, both legally and ethically." t.co/wAdf7eH3GS

DeVos got herself a shiny new contempt citation and $100,000 fine. "At a hearing on the matter this month, Kim said: “I’m not sending anyone to jail yet, but it’s good to know I have that ability. I’m most concerned with helping the people who were harmed by this — this problem that the government created.” Attorneys for the borrowers proposed an array of sanctions, including fining DeVos $500 per day until the Education Department is fully compliant with the original court order. Toby Merrill, director at the Project on Predatory Student Lending, a legal-aid group representing the students, said the “rare and powerful action to hold the Secretary of Education in contempt of court shows the extreme harm” of DeVos’s actions.' www.washingtonpost.com/education/2019/10/24/federal-judge-holds-devos-contempt-loan-case-slaps-education-dept-with-fine/DeVos does not have to pay this. It comes out of ED’s budget, which means we, the taxpayers, are paying that fine. It’s BS that ED didn’t do what it needed to do to keep servicers in line with the injunction. The whole thing is a mess.

I just wish she and the Department has done their jobs to begin with, and then when they didn’t that they’d actually follow the injunction. But they didn’t and now taxpayers are on the hook.
