I know it’s a conspiracy theory, but did everyone forget about how our Navy mysteriously forgot how to not crash into things the last time the circus administration was in power?
Seems odd that a military chopper drifted into a commercial jet…

These aren't random lies—they're part of the relatively short runway the Trump administration will use to illegally invoke the Insurrection Act and soon after declare martial law and end our democracy

I'm unsure if we have days or weeks left, but I suspect it's one of those two rather than months

This is what ice is doing

The Bulwark @thebulwark.com · 11h

George was just trying to get to work.

ICE pepper-sprayed him, dragged him from his car, locked him in a detention center, and placed him on suicide watch. He even missed his young daughter’s birthday in the process.

This man is a veteran and American citizen. Don't look away.

The Bulwark @thebulwark.com · 12h

"They put me on suicide watch and they put me in the cell, I'm naked, in like a hospital dress and just a concrete bed with like a mattress, like a thin mattress and, they leave the light on 24/7."

For a while the religious right has been trying to undermine our democracy by overturning the Constitution by a convention of states (34), and could never get enough red states. I think that’s why they will get in bed with whoever will help them achieve that. Including pedos. and Russia.

A complaint or an indictment could come as early as next week.

Federal agents aren’t trying to keep the peace. They want violence to escalate so that Trump can declare martial law.

They shot a reverend in the head with pepper balls while he was praying in front of an ICE facility. If that doesn’t tell you where we are as a country, nothing will.

EXCLUSIVE — DHS Acting General Counsel sent out a memo Wednesday to all Federal Protective Service staff (the sub-agency that guards federal buildings) letting officers know they could take any action necessary "in the vicinity" federal property to protect themselves.

The Handbasket reports:

DHS top lawyer says 'no legal barrier' to actions officers can take to defend federal property

In a memo obtained exclusively by The Handbasket, Federal Protective Service (FPS) officers were given free rein.
