This is what Tulsi Gabbard buried, to benefit the President’s son-in-law, in violation of national security protocols.
News: The top-secret whistleblower complaint against Tulsi Gabbard is related to a conversation intercepted last spring in which two foreign nationals discussed Jared Kushner, according to U.S. officials familiar with the matter. www.wsj.com/politics/nat...

Media challenge: Stop using the word "immigration" in phrases about abduction, assault, murder, and so on. Immigration means the movement of people into a country for purposes of residency. What's being "enforced" here is terror & crimes against humanity.

Honestly, the FBI, under the direction of Kash Patel, is pathetic. How heartbreaking for the Guthrie family. Under his direction, they haven’t solved any high profile crimes. They solved themselves. Two weeks later, and they are nowhere, but arresting the wrong guy. Again.

This is all performative bullshit.

Believe it when you don't see ICE in Minneapolis/Saint Paul anymore.

There’s photographs of the paper!!!

I’m so tired of this shit.
Q: Rep. Jayapal accused the DOJ of tracking her search history. Is that appropriate conduct?

MIKE JOHNSON: I don't know anything about that

Q: Bondi had a piece of paper with Jayapal's search history

JOHNSON: I don't know anything about that but it would be inappropriate if it happened

Ending this operation is not enough.

We need justice and accountability. That starts with independent investigations into the murders of Renee Good and Alex Pretti, economic restitution for businesses impacted, abolishing ICE, and the impeachment of Kristi Noem.

Happening now: a large group of rabbis and Jewish demonstrators have gathered outside of ICE headquarters in DC to stage a protest.

Rand Paul: "I see not even a hint here of anything aggressive on [Pretti's] part. I don't think this should take months and months. There needs to be a conclusion ... the public needs to know, if I go to a protest and shout something at people, could I be killed?"

I remain so mad about the FDA’s refusal to even look at the mRNA flu vaccine, let alone when I learned earlier this week of a treatment trial where an mRNA vaccine stopped an aggressive form of breast cancer in its tracks. Full cure.

These fuckers will kill us all if they have their way.

Trump's Department of Justice was apparently monitoring members of Congress as they search through the newly-unredacted Epstein Files, tracking their search terms. Rep. Jamie Raskin calls it "Orwellian" and a "violation of the separation of powers."

A reminder: The Attorney General of the United States should be the people's lawyer, not the president's personal attorney. The Department of Justice should act to protect the public, not the occupant of the Oval Office and his political allies.

Our taxpayer dollars fund this racist cruel BS! Can we stop paying taxes? Because this is an atrocity!
This is the second account - the first being in Chicago - of DHS agents mass detaining people and then *sorting them by race*.
More than 400 people, including hundreds of citizens, were “sorted” at gun point into racial and ethnic groups by 200 ICE agents who fired flash-bang grenades into cars with people inside, pointed guns at children & demanded their zip tied parents not comfort them. apple.news/Ausdx6kWtT0e...

CNN confirms what MSNBC reported live a few hours ago: DOJ is surveilling Dem lawmakers when they go to the DOJ to search unredacted Epstein files.
CNN: "Another photograph - these are notes AG Bondi brought to the hearing today. This shows a list of Rep. Jayapal's search history. Lawmakers are allowed to go to a DOJ facility to search unredacted files. We learned from this photo that the searches are apparently being tracked & read by the DOJ"

When Pam Bondi is questioned about rich and powerful people raping children, she prefers to talk about rich and powerful people making money.
Bondi crashes out over Epstein: "The Dow is over 50,000 dollars! I don't know why you're laughing. You're a great stock trader as I hear, Raskin. The Dow is over 50,000 right now. The S&P at almost 7,000, and the Nasdaq smashing records. That's what we should be talking about."
