Guess whose name is on the Epstein List…
This is in the Virgin Islands, for those who didn’t immediately get the references to V.I. or USVI. >

For a second there, I thought I was in the wrong timeline again. >

Well, if she was terminated by a T-1000, you can bet you're on a new timeline now. >

"Tonight on Skynet Tonight, another caravan of humans attempting to cross the border of the 011 of New Microsoft, we go live with the Tuckertron 9000 for his report." >

Does Tuckertron 9000 run on frozen machine oil? >

No still just hate and bigotry along with solar, they dont actually believe the stuff they broadcast, no reasonable sentient AI would consider tuckertron 9000 actual news. >

The solar panels are on tuckertron's nards for some reason. >

"The decision by Governor Albert Bryan to fire the A.G. came just days after Bloomberg News revealed that Ms. George in her capacity as V.I. attorney general had filed a lawsuit against JPMorgan Chase — the largest bank in the United States and the world's largest bank by market capitalization — without first informing Governor Bryan of such a major action, said a person with knowledge of the matter.
The lawsuit claims JPMorgan Chase facilitated convicted felon Jeffrey Epstein's abuse of women and girls, alleging that the bank should have known about Epstein’s illegal activity and as part of its anti-money laundering procedures, should have reported their client to authorities." >

Methinks someone doesn’t want that client list to be discovered. 
Good for her, and screw him. I hope she pushes back. >

That list is scrubbed by the time we see it. >

Prisons should have those amenities. What do you think happens when you lock people up with nothing to do? Fuck Maxwell and all that, but your anger is misplaced >

Rehabilitation should always be the default goal. But in these kinds of 1/100.000.000 cases where someone has the means to do literally anything in this world and opts to rape kids and deny it until they're found guilty, I think most would agree they can reasonably be denied those amenities. >

I see where you're coming from 
I would argue we should still provide these services to people who are not worthy. We have essentially made them wards of the state, denying them autonomy for the remainder of their lives, rending them incapable of the kind of damage they could previously enact. What do we, as a society gain from making them miserable? If we begin to see the prison system as a weapon to do harm with what will the end result of that be societally?
Edit: many of you are replying to this with broader subjects surrounding prison justice, and while i generally agree with all of those sentiments this comment is specifically about justifying amenities for even the worst people incarcerated. >

The prison system is already weaponized in the USA. Only its weaponized against the poor/marginalized. White collar criminals go to club fed, and everyone else gets for-profit state prisons, with slave labour and 23 hr lock downs. >

This is true, but making the better prisons worse wont make the worse ones better. >

I agree with you. I think we should treat all people with respect, even the people that don't deserve respect. I also know that even at the best prisons, things like the offering of yoga/pilates means that an instructor comes maybe once a month to teach a class. And that websites use sensational titles to generate clicks. Prison sucks, even with pilates classes. >

So we have AGs that file frivolous lawsuits only to break faith in democracy and normalize people delegitimizing the votes of their neighbors. We have AGs that have drunken ran over people, killed them, then covered it up. We have AGs that have been under federal indictment for almost a decade and all sorts of other abuse of office complaints but the only one getting quickly fired is the one trying to hold people accountable for sex trafficking and rape? >

Our AG kept suing school districts over mask mandates, and kept losing. >

Missouri? This sounds like Missouri… >

Yep. MO. >

I always thought MO was a weird abbreviation.  There's no O in Misery. >

I mean Missouri is ranked pretty low on the education quality list. >

Missouri is also ranked in the bottom 5 for teacher pay. These things are related, and they form the basis for why the state is red. Underfund education, pump trades over college (not shaming, that’s good money for an often better payoff), forego teaching the critical thinking skills you need to question the questions Tucker Carlson has questions about. That’s how you get Josh Hawley and Eric Schmitt, who will be locked into office for the next 48 years >

This will result in a massive lawsuit. It's not actually clear if he has the power to fire her in this scenario and will almost certainly be taken to court. >

Isn’t the AG appointed at-will by the executive? >

At-will employment doesn’t cover wrongful termination. If this firing was exclusively to facilitate a cover up, that may be a crime in and of itself. Now of course political appointments are not the same as normal jobs, but governors should not be allowed to crime all over the place >

Appointed government positions can't be wrongfully terminated.  They can simply be told their services are no longer required, though usually they are allowed to resign rather than be fired >

Incredible that people are upvoting this. Yes, termination can still be illegal. The 14th amendment isn't secondary to state employment laws or common industry practice.
Edit: made the wording more clear >

Not to be a pedant, but I also said that the wrongful termination law isn’t the one that would apply here; however it’s illustrative of the same logic: firing for illegitimate/malfeasant reasons is not protected >

Yeah I was mocking the person who replied to you. You're all good. >

Headline should read "Attorney general takes on big banks and sex traffickers, gets pushback from those above her who stink of corruption" >

Thank you, short headline that covers the main topics! >

What happens when you go after the real bad guys. >

Stuff like this is exactly why there are so many conspiracy theories out there about Epstein and all these politicians and ‘important people’ >

Is it really a conspiracy anymore? >

Yea it’s pretty obvious to me and a lot of people that there’s a bunch of powerful people (celebrities, politicians, entrepreneurs, etc.) that hung out and did shady shit with Epstein. And they all cover for each other. >

Imagine if ordinary people had that sort of class solidarity >

United we bargain divided we beg >

Damn I like this phrasing. Did you come up with it or did you find it somewhere? >

I’m a union member and I’ve seen the phrase on stickers and shirts for the ten years I’ve been in, but the phrase rings true >

Termination seems a tad extreme. >

'We didn't have that guy killed for people to keep on talking about him!' >

What do you mean? He committed suicide in his cell. It is known.
Edit: I didn’t think you guys would take this seriously. But you did. >

Lol yep. He killed himself, and both guards just happened to fall asleep. Oh, and the cameras just happened to have malfunctioned at that time.
Lol I legitimately don't even know how someone can look at that ridiculous scenario and think to themselves "Yep, that totally sounds plausible". Lmfao. >

Because the cameras that were working had adequate coverage to show no one entered or left the block Epstein was on. If you can't imagine guards developing a pattern of lying about checking on inmates because they're overworked, then that's on you. >

"You sued one of my fucking BOSSES!?!" >

Please, we prefer to refer to them as patrons. It's much more refined than bosses. /s >

"How dare you sue one of my donors!" >

Bankers…can’t trust them. Apparently can’t touch them either. >

A problem as old as the Medicis'. >

Granted, she didn’t run it by her Boss. But that doesn’t mean her lawsuit didn’t have merit.
She was most likely fired because JP Morgan yields a lot of power, both politically and financially.
I applaud her for having the tenacity of calling JP Morgan out & following through.
Gov Bryan obviously lacked that tenacity & instead displayed his Cowardice.
This is a fine example why the Epsteins of the world will always flourish.
Money and Power will trump Common Decency every time.
Regardless, when all is said and done, She’s still a Hero in my Book! >

She'll be back in Attorney General 2: Judgement Day >

Come with me if you want to enforce the law! >

*Puts sunglasses on and racks his shotgun* >

His sunglasses were actually broken and discarded immediately before that line. >

“Attorney General fired for doing the job she was hired to do because it inconvenienced a bunch of billionaires and threatened to expose their pedophile island trips.” - Fixed >

So the Governor took a huge "Donation" from JPMorgan Chase. >

Follow the money and the answer will be glaringly obvious. >

Well doesn't that smell funny. >

This is what happens when you try to prosecute the banking system’s heinous crimes! >

Well that’ll show you what happens when you try to hold people with power accountable.
