I’m really not thinking it’s a great idea to make the plumber our DHS Secretary if there’s credible intelligence of an impending attack on our homeland by Iran.
Just sayin’.
Officials at DHS removed career staff at CBP after they refused orders to mislabel surveillance records to block release under FOIA.
Those forced out include CBP’s top privacy officer & FOIA director after a lawful disclosure angered political leadership.

New reporting finds that Trump's DOJ took over and quashed a state investigation into Epstein's New Mexico ranch in 2019.
As the walls close in on Trump, he'll do anything — including launch full-scale wars — to distract the public.
Law enforcement officers have always been unmasked in this country until ICE started wearing them last year.
*That* is the departure from norms. *That* is the step too far.
Greg Bovino sadly filling one steamer trunk after another with elaborate fashy overcoats, the teargas canisters he always has bouncing around on him like labubus, and dozens of "chest-belts." They will be shipped ahead of him as he prepares to return to his home, which is a men's size 10 boot.

So they killed a straight white man lawfully exercising his gun rights and the Dems finally changed their position on funding ICE.
Thank you.
Next time, please listen to us sooner.

Amazing how quickly the pretext for invading a city just falls away. The circular justification in Minneapolis is now “we are punishing the city for resisting our punishment.

Right before Christmas, we were told there were 2 million more Epstein files. Then we found out there were actually 5 million.
So where are they?

He's good at explaining things. I'd like to see him in some sort of media-analysis position rather than in elected office. I mean, he'd been doing stuff with The Bulwark, but I'm imagining something with a bigger reach.

I would love to be part of the conversation on MSNBC related to the Kimmel story and it's chilling effects on first amendment, but unfortunately I was terminated by MSNBC for stating that "hateful thoughts lead to hateful words which lead to hateful actions".
Trump admin doesn’t want anyone to hear what Jimmy Kimmel said:
“The MAGA Gang (is) desperately trying to characterize this kid who murdered Charlie Kirk as anything other than one of them and doing everything they can to score political points from it,” Kimmel said
www.nbcnews.com/pop-culture/...
Vance: “Charlie Kirk never said Black women do not have brain processing power to be taken seriously. He never uttered those words.”
Kirk: “Joy Reid, Michelle Obama, Ketanji Brown Jackson — you do not have the brain processing power to otherwise be taken seriously.”
Sorry dude, even with context this is extremely racist.
Why is the right so angry? They control the entire government and they’re still miserable f*cks.
Joy Reid nailed it.
“Charlie Kirk in His Own Words”
17 quotes you should read from the right-wing activist and Trump ally who was tragically shot and killed on Wednesday in Utah.
Earlier this year, Utah Republicans passed a "Campus Carry" law (HB 128), which allows individuals aged 18+ to carry a firearm, either openly or concealed, on college campuses, provided they hold a valid Utah Concealed Weapon Permit (CWP).
