My signal is annabower.24 if any other United States Attorneys want to text me!
EXCLUSIVE: One Saturday afternoon in October, my phone lit up with a notification.

I glanced down at the message.

“Anna, Lindsey Halligan here,” it began.

So began my text exchange with the woman who is prosecuting the president's perceived political enemies.

The White House "bunker" is under the East Wing. The one where Cheney went on 9/11, and Trump to hide from George Floyd protests.

So is that, like, out of commission? Still going to be there? Entrance hidden under the new throne room? No security concerns about the construction being so visible?

You gotta imagine how weird it felt to drive that backhoe today just looking back at everybody going “you sure about this everybody’s sure about this?”
Behold: Republican permitting reform.

I'm not a West Wing obsessed lib or anything but the more I see pictures of this the more fucked up I think it is. It's like he cut off one of the hands of the Lincoln memorial with an angle grinder so he could add a big gun to it.

OMG! In Comey's motion to dismiss for vindictive prosecution, he points to others who have lied to Congress that were NOT prosecuted. Number one is JEFF SESSIONS when he said "I have been called a surrogate at a time or two, but I did not have contact with the Russians." 1/

When Putin arrived in Alaska, Trump met him personally & rolled out the red carpet.
When Zelensky arrived in DC, NO US representative was there, only Ukrainian Embassy staff. There was no red carpet.
Trump has allied with Putin against the West.

Here's a gift link to the New York Times' coverage of the initial Tea Party rallies in April 2009 which inspired the media to treat it like a massive movement.

Check out how tiny the crowds were:

Philly: 200
DC: "several hundred"
Boston: 500
Austin: 1,000
Houston: 2,000

The entire "free speech on campus" moral panic was manufactured to blackmail us into making space in intellectual life for bigots and charlatans who couldn't get there on their own merits. Its a DEI scheme for fascism. Congratulations to everyone who took it at face value.
“Following his lecture, Yarvin will debate the legendary British historian David Starkey on history and the future of conservatism.” Everything about this is so cursed. Masks off at the University of Oxford.

A big part of this story has gone unnoticed: At this point, the guardrails for DHS agents are incredibly weak and oversight mechanisms for them have atrophied. Trump's paramilitary forces are operating with little constraint.

Murphy's letter addresses this, too. 5/

Much of this is enabled by GOP's crippling of congressional oversight on Trump's behalf. The people are awash in propaganda about what their government is doing to them, and thanks to GOP, Congress is checked out of the fact-finding business entirely. Very bad! 6/6

The president of the United States posted a video of him defecating on the American people. Many in my profession normalized it. This is a big reason why we are where we are.
