  1. Ghislaine Maxwell’s attorney - addressing me directly - says there’s no such thing as prisoner work details outside the facility in the federal prison system. Yes there are. I have receipts.

Dear @MuellerSheWrote :
There is no such thing as work release in federal prison, so your reporting is false. All you had to do was ask any criminal law practitioner, and they would have explained this to you.
I wish we had work release in federal prison — and I wish we treated people behind bars better than we do. How about you?
I'm surprised to hear my progressive friends criticizing more humane prisons and Ghislaine's transfer to a safer facility, especially after she faced serious danger in Tallahassee. The outrage machine wants to turn a safer placement into a scandal. But it's still prison.
And despite the soundbites, prison is a truly awful place.My response on Twitter: Hello, Mr. Markus. Here is the BOP policy that says Out Custody is eligible for work details outside prison. Will you go on record that she will not be allowed outside despite her waiver?
Also, who authorized the waiver, and in exchange for what?

The BOP policy reads: ₽5100.08

Chapter 2, Page 4
OUT CUSTODY. The second lowest custody level assigned to an inmate requiring the second lowest level of security and staff supervision. An inmate who has OUT custody may be assigned to less secure housing and may be eligible for work details outside the institution's secure perimeter with a minimum of two-hour intermittent staff supervision.

  2. we're gone from "we're not cutting Medicaid" to "if you lose Medicaid you deserve it"

    Johnson: "The Urban League that came out with their study that said 100k+ people are gonna lose Medicaid bc of the work requirements? That means they're choosing to not work... if somebody drops out of the program bc they're unwilling to do that, they did not deserve to be on that program."
