    There are Times When Absurdity is not the Camusian Absurdity But Sartrean (maybe also Beauvoirian)

    Do Trumpian prosecutors understand the concept of prejudice?       “It comes on the heels of a White House executive order to the Justice Department and intelligence agencies to hunt for political bias in their ranks.”       The President’s executive order is plainly political bias.       Have we a point…
