1. Ferguson report - policing for profit, aka legalized robbery.
2. Поддержка полиции сильно уменьшается, когда поддерживающего арестовывают за ношение перочинного ножика, потому что полицейским хочется заработать повышение.

4. Obama administration lied to the court about executive amnesty implementation - claimed that nothing was implemented yet, in fact about 100K people already got permits.
If you try to lie in court, you go to jail. If DOJ lies in court, they just get to say “oopsie, doesn’t count”.
5. Прокуроры занимаются прямой фальсификацией, и ничего, кроме лекции от судьи, за этим не следует.
6. Эрик Холдер напоследок жалуется на расизм республиканцев, и призывает ослабить требования к делам о “нарушении гражданских прав" - т.е. то, за что он пытался засудить Циммермана, после того, как суд принял решение о его невиновности, но не вышло, и такой же результат получился в случае с Вильсоном и Брауном. По мнению Холдера, исправление этого “недостатка” приведёт к улучшению отношений между полицией и чернокожей молодёжью.

VCS’s coveted gold mining exploitation permit was apparently such a sweetheart deal that it outraged the Haitian senate, since royalties to be paid to the Haitian government were only 2.5%, a sum mining experts say is at least half the standard rate.
Not a smidgen of corruption on this one, I am sure.
