Indeed. This letter provides future historians with irrefutable evidence of Trump’s insanity.

Rachel Maddow: The people, by and large, stand in opposition to Trump — his approval ratings have fallen through the floor & then down into the basement & then through the basement floor into the bedrock — He is just despised as a political leader in this country in almost unprecedented terms

A month after the Epstein files deadline, only a fraction of DOJ records have been released.

Does no one have the power to confront this obstruction of justice or are we to be “ok” with the fact we now are ruled by a dictator.

Identifying rogue, masked murderers isn't "doxing"—it’s reporting on crimes.
BRENNAN: Tell me about the officer, Jonathan Ross

KRISTI NOEM: Don't say his name! I mean, for heaven's sake, we shouldn't have people continue to dox law enforcement

BRENNAN: His name is public

NOEM: I know, but that doesn't mean it should continue to be said

What worries me with ice is that the public has no way of knowing if they are really ice. They have unmarked vehicles, wear masks, show no warrants or legal paperwork, no identification, and appear very unprofessional and violent. Anyone could be impersonating ice to terrorize our communities.

I spent part of today sorting out what is going on with the Epstein Files. Why the delay? Why have the rolling productions stopped. And, what might a recent filing by Ghislaine Maxwell have to do with it.👀

Sunday, at least 7 ICE agents stormed a house and took an elderly man out into the freezing cold, wearing only his underwear and a blanket.

He was a member of the Hmong community, which came to the area from Laos in the 1970s after siding with the US in the Vietnam War.

Pew Research Institute (2023):

• Red State Texas has about 2.1 million undocumented immigrants

• Red State Florida has 1.6 M undocumented immigrants

• Blue State Minnesota has 130,000.

And yet only Minnesota is being occupied by masked thugs over "immigration."

It's *not* about immigration.

This is what happened in our neighborhood yesterday. ICE snatched a human being off of our streets, roughed them up badly, and then pepper sprayed legal observers as they documented it all. This is a daily occurrence happening all throughout Minnesota right now.

We need your help contacting voters in key states and connecting them with their senators to demand ICE Out For Good. With the Senate soon set to vote on whether to empower Trump to send more secret police forces into our communities, we have a big opportunity to rein in ICE at the federal level.

The transformation of ICE into a type of national police force, backed, in some cases, by soldiers from the National Guard, has been covered as immigration story—but these forces are reshaping democracy for all of us.

I don't know who needs to hear this, but cops are not allowed to shoot people just because you didn't do what they said.

That is called murder when they do that.

Some cops are working hard to convince people otherwise.

DOJ is in clear violation of the law Congress enacted. Yet, legacy media continues to act like DOJ is undertaking some Herculean effort to comply.
