  • I’m just going to rec some good creators that filled the void.

    Matt Orchard probably has the highest quality content. Strong recommendation for him.

    Dreading. Seems Intentionally dry but covers the most details of a case. Sometimes posting 4 hours of courtroom footage.

    Explore with Us. Probably the most tabloid style presentation and worst editorial takes. They have the longest chunks of police interrogation though. They have alt channels for body cam stuff too which is pretty dope.






  • An important historical context for this I would like to add as well. There’s a chance I may be wrong about the specifics but this is my best understanding of it.

    When this concept was developed during the constitutional convention. They wanted to protect “states rights”, which has always been a soft language for slavery. The Electoral College is in the same section of the constitution as the 3/5ths compromise, which said that slaves count as 3/5th of a person when being counted as population to have representatives/Electoral college votes.

    So modern Republicans are benefiting and have more power than the general population actually voted for, based on a structure used to protect the institution of slavery. This is a key example of “institutional racism(*edit)” and helps me understand the obsession with things like critical race theory. Because understanding the structure, delegitmizes the power Republicans hold. The most obvious example to me right now is the Supreme Court. A mixture between the consequences of institutional racism and modern GOP political rat fuckery is doing so much harm to America.
