Hot jam, that's some good lawyering. Basically you can't appeal your case until you're convicted of something, unless it's otherwise specifically protected by law.

As though millions of people on the edge of poverty sat like dragons upon a mountain of wealth.
We basically do. The reality is that it's just not sexy or exciting. All we're really missing are files that could be related to ongoing investigations of criminal organizations.
Historian Sean Munger has a pretty good video essay on this, but it's honestly a bit of a letdown.
Hate is just love getting all twisted up. You can’t get this kind of negativity from something that’s always been awful, it has to be deeply loved first in order for the hate to properly flow.
