It comes hours after a judge told a Missouri prison warden to release Christopher Dunn from custody or face consequences.
More than 30 years in prison for a crime there was no evidence he committed. He was only 18. Now republican AG is refusing to allow his overturned sentence be implemented.
Don't stop talking about Christopher Dunn until he is released.

Andrew Bailey's suit comes amid a sweeping crackdown from the Trump administration on diversity, equity and inclusion efforts both in government entities and private sector businesses.
For those unaware of what's happening in Missouri: The Attorney General, Andrew Bailey, has enacted an "emergency regulation" placing limitations on gender affirming health care for trans youth and adults requiring 15 one hour therapy sessions over 18 months for puberty blockers, 3 years for hormone therapy, and up to in some cases 9 years of documented therapy for trans gender individuals to receive hormone replacement therapy and other gender affirming treatments. In addition doctors are required to screen trans patients for autism and depression, if diagnosed with either they can be refused gender affirming care. Andrew Bailey enacted this emergency order under the Missouri Merchandising Protections Act, far over reaching the legal scope of the act, due to a claim that a St. Louis transgender clinic was prescribing "experimental drugs to kids without parental consent." These claims are untrue and are currently under investigation. Andrew Bailey's website now has a tip line to report trans affirming health clinics for “reports of questionable gender transition interventions.”
This is what trans genocide looks like in Missouri.

The president is weighing whether to oust the FBI director after scrutiny of Patel's stewardship of bureau resources, including his girlfrie
Carol Leonnig, Laura Barrón-López, and Ken Dilanian at MS NOW:
President Donald Trump is considering removing Kash Patel as FBI director in the coming months, as he and his top aides have grown increasingly frustrated by the unflattering headlines Patel has recently generated, according to three people with knowledge of the situation who requested anonymity in order to speak freely.
Patel has come under scrutiny for his stewardship of bureau resources, including his girlfriend’s security detail and use of a government jet, and for his squabbles with other Trump loyalists.
Trump and White House aides have confided to allies that the president is eyeing removing Patel and is considering top FBI official Andrew Bailey as the bureau’s new director, according to the three people.
Patel is described as being on thin ice and his ouster appears closer than ever, with Bailey as the logical replacement, two of the sources with knowledge of the situation said, though Trump could change his mind in the weeks to come.
White House spokeswoman Abigail Jackson responded to MS NOW, saying, “President Trump has assembled the most talented and impressive Administration in history and they are doing an excellent job carrying out the President’s agenda. FBI Director Patel is a critical member of the President’s team and he is working tirelessly to restore integrity to the FBI.”
On Tuesday, Patel was present at the White House for the annual pardoning of the Thanksgiving turkeys where Trump publicly commended him, adding that he was “very busy doing a great job.” When several people applauded, the president added, “See, you’ve got a following, Kash.”
Following publication of this story, White House press secretary Karoline Leavitt posted to X that it was “completely made up.” She said when the “fake news” was published, she was in the Oval Office where Trump was meeting with his law enforcement team — including Patel.
“I read the headline to the President and he laughed,” Leavitt wrote. He said: “What? That’s totally false. Come on Kash, let’s take a picture to show them you’re doing a great job!” The picture showed the two men standing next to each other with smiles and each giving a thumbs-up.
In an interview last week with Fox News Channel’s Brian Kilmeade, the president backed Patel, saying, “I do have confidence in Kash, a lot of confidence, and the DOJ.”
MS NOW has reported that U.S. Attorney General Pam Bondi has been frustrated with both Patel and Dan Bongino, in particular over Patel’s untimely social media posts boasting prematurely about case breakthroughs, which sometimes threatened to jeopardize investigations. Both Bondi and Deputy Attorney General Todd Blanche have been irritated by the continuing distraction of news coverage of his questionable use of taxpayer resources, multiple sources have said.
Kash Patel, the worst FBI director in history, could soon be facing a pink slip.
Notice how 70% of the workforce is "too female" for Starbucks, but the police forces that regularly murder and brutalize innocent civilians is over 86% male?
I don't know, but it seems to me that police forces aren't hiring the best people for the job and someone should really ask Missouri Attorney General Andrew Bailey about that. Maybe if they hired more female officers, they wouldn't be paying out millions of dollars in wrongful death suits.
See, I'm doing that fun thing where I'm pointing out people's hypocrisy as if it actually matters. As if the people I'm pointing this out about would see it and think "oh, hey, that is a pretty weird double standard we have and maybe we should re-evaluate our beliefs."
The problem is, at this point, I think most of them are aware at least on some deep level of the absurdity and contradictions inherent in their arguments. They don't care if they're hypocrites. They don't care if their "moral values" don't make sense or change on a dime the moment their Führer demands it.
You can point out hypocrisy all day but it won't have the slightest impact on people with no actual morals or values.
So while I have everyone's attention, I'd like to remind people that whenever Republicans complain about Diversity, Equity and Inclusion, this is what they mean. They believe that society as a whole employs too many black people, that it employees too many women, to many latino people, too many Native American people, too many gay people.
I cannot sound the alarm enough that we are dealing with unabashed evil.
The point is to take your jobs, your livelihoods, your means of supporting your families and surviving!
