"The presumption of innocence applies to everyone.
So does the principle that no one is above the law."
Both sentences are 100% correct.

1/ I want to make a point that I've made before. This indictment -- like the January 6th hearings -- is vitally important, for a variety of reasons.
One of them?
The simple fact that it draws a clear line in the sand. It clearly states that a line was crossed on January 6.

Saying that "If they can come for Trump then they can come for you" is technically true.
But the correct way of saying this is "No one is above the law."

The fact that Madame VP even has to say these words in this day and age is an embarrassment to all. These reactionary racists need to be sent back to their unground worm holes to hide in the dark again where their ideas can no longer see the light of day.

Honestly, folks. The former President of the US was just indicted for trying to steal an election.
He’s innocent until proven guilty.
But the indictment & what it represents make this 1 of the most important—& historic—legal cases in US history.
Don’t be numb to what it represents.

This may seem obvious to some but I think it bears restating: Two things can be true at the same time. We can recognize the U.S. economy is doing better than it has in years and still understand that the poor remain poor and more needs to be done.
