The wounded knee thing is really Trumpism distilled to its essence. It’s not enough to be able crush people who can’t fully defend themselves, it’s not enough to actually crush them, you also have to love and admire those who do the crushing otherwise the Trumpists’ delicate feelings are injured

This is giving Red Wedding vibes. I hope I’m wrong.

It’s wild to me that the Pentagon is just… fine with reporting that most of our senior military are going to be in the same location.

Personal security nightmare.

Trump couldn’t pass an 8th grade civics test. Yet here we are. Perhaps we should make these mandatory for any federal government position.

Trump administration moves to make US citizenship harder with revised civics test.

scenes from franklin park, illinois, where the department of homeland security is saying ice agents killed someone this morning.

lots of details still murky.

a white 18-wheeler is parked on the curb. a gray sedan is wedged underneath the truck, its front end smashed in. the scene is surrounded by cones and police tape

officers from various agencies are standing around in the street. some vests show local police, others don’t include an agency or just say “police.”

a firetruck is parked.

Just last month the FBI forced out its top agent in Salt Lake City, a Pakistani American woman whom a former FBI agent describes as a “legendary case agent who was involved in some of the most significant national security cases of the last two decades.” www.msnbc.com/msnbc/amp/rc...

Just like the orange monster is doing for the entire country, Pete Hegseth for the department of defense, Pam Bondi for the DOJ, Kristi Noem for homeland security, Tulsi Gabbard for national intelligence, Linda McMahon for education, and Thomas Fugate DHS's to combate violent extremism.
