A Charlotte man was stopped twice by ICE. The first group checked his ID and let him go. Minutes later, another set of agents rolled up, smashed his window, dragged him out, and assaulted him

Apparently “the Administration” doesn’t want people to share pictures of the #WhiteHouse #Demolition. This is just so bad. Unspeakably bad. That one person could just randomly decide to do this, theoretically funded by people with considerable business before the Govt. #corruption #shutdown

I have to stress how highly unusual it is for the most powerful military on the planet to be blowing up random boats in international waters.
I can’t help but feel that several criminal charges will ultimately come from these strikes.
It makes far more sense to interdict them.

I think they will, yes. At the very least, republicans are paying attention, particularly at the state and local level.
You can’t just ignore millions of people protesting on a single day. The GOP is more convinced than ever they’re going to get blown out in the midterms, too.

It’s easy to blame Rogan for understanding the situation far too late, but the important thing is that he’s using his platform-with his millions of listeners-to talk about it now.
This one show will reach more normal GOP folks than we ever could.

The con worked, until it didn’t?
ROGAN: “I really thought they were just going to go after the criminals… I really thought there was enough gang members.”
ME: He still doesn’t get it. That’s what Trump wanted everyone to believe. They’re not even trying to go after “the criminals”.

Discovery is going to be fantastic, though.
We all saw this abuse of power coming. Multiple prosecutors (even Trump appointed ones) tried to stop the administration from making this mistake because there’s no case.

Intelligence analysts entire job is speaking uncomfortable truths to those in power.
Unbiased information is vital for decision making.
Trying to force them to color their product in a way that won’t embarrass the president is dangerous, and it’s wrong.

Trump fired over 1,000 National Park staff in February, and most still haven’t been reinstated. The $45 million he’s wasting on a military parade for his birthday could have paid their salaries for over a year.

so to be clear about what happened here, the Trump White House released audio meant to make Joe Biden look bad to Axios hours after the US's credit rating was downgraded.
