I don't know if there's such a thing as a "world cyberwar" but I think we are in one? and the US is determined to lose it. 🧵

Today the admin is mass-firing the Cybersecurity and Infrastructure Security Agency (CISA), the nation's cybersecurity protection across all levels of government.

How you know The Felon has congestive heart failure is they felt the need to make this doctor say this - when there is no such thing as “cardiac age.”

WGN, this woman’s employer, is now reporting she was not charged with any crimes and was released.

DHS said earlier she was arrested for assault for throwing objects at agents.

During a military-style raid on a building in Chicago’s South Shore, one resident heard a knock on his door. 

It wasn’t the feds —  it was a mom and her 7-year-old daughter, pleading for help.

He let them hide in his unit for the next 3 days.

Make no mistake, Rs will 100% nuke the 60 vote threshold to pass their CR, if Dems don’t cave.

They’ve nuked the 60 vote threshold 2x already, they’ll do it on this, too.

Reading this now. It’s the opinion explaining the reason for granting a TRO (the order came out yesterday) against the National Guard deployment in Illinois. It begins with a quote from Alexander Hamilton in the Federalist Papers against the idea.
