The past week was marked by the discovery of U.S. Attorney General Jeff Session‘s highly suspicious meetings with the Russian ambassador to the United States “at the height of what U.S. intelligence officials say was a Russian cyber campaign to upend the U.S. presidential race” and his failure to disclose such meetings during his confirmation hearing as required (perjury?), and the Academy Awards (with its announcing of the wrong movie as best picture). Have a listen to Bob Marley‘s Mix Up, Mix Up while perusing our curated nonprofit tweets of the week:
