- Psilocybin reschedule petition now with HHS.  

- Micah Parsons scrubs social media of all mentions of Cowboys. Hope Parsons files his retirement papers and says he'd consider returning to play if he's traded to a team that's owner or GM isn't a drama queen.

- This explanation of why the FBI would raid John Bolton's home makes sense. If he kept secret information in order to publish a book and get paid it's really no different from someone robbing a convenience store to get money.

- Jonathan Turley: Judge Ergoron's half billion dollar miscalculation. Now Trump should sue to get the interest paid on his huge bond back plus maybe some criminal charges.

- Matt Taibbi on where policing went wrong. While I agree with him for the most part Taibbi does not mention the word "quota" (and no not hiring quotas). Requiring officers to have X many arrests or hand out Y number of tickets is a real problem, Many police forces need that revenue and that need perverts justice. Also - there is no need for any city to allow officers to live outside the city limits. They should be part of the community they are policing.

- Police Union Privileges - Revisited. This is a problem.
