That’s not peace that’s Orwellian doublespeak. It’s like bragging about your diet while eating a bucket of fried hypocrisy. The words and the actions couldn’t be further apart and the fact they expect people to swallow it makes it even more absurd.

He's literally renamed the department of defense the department of war and is ordering the bombing of fishing boats in the Caribbean.

Illinois judge blocks ICE from using force against peaceful protesters, clergy and journalists. Also requires visible ID. An overdue victory for the First Amendment.

Chicagoans won a temporary restraining order today that prevents federal agents from using tear gas, pepper spray and other weapons against journalists and peaceful protesters.
We’re fighting back peacefully in Chicago because — unlike Trump — we believe in the rule of law.

Judge Rules Feds Can't Pepper-Spray, Tear-Gas Journalists After Block Club Chicago And Others Sue

Block Club and news organizations sued the federal government for its actions against journalists outside the Broadview ICE detention facility. Four of our journalists have been shot with pepper-spray...

Pay attention.

"Plenary authority is legal power that is full, complete, and unrestricted in a specific area. When used in reference to government officials, the term "plenary power" is more common."

My Magic 8 Ball says, "All signs point to buckle the f*%k up."

Christopher Webb @cwebbonline.com · 3d

Stephen Miller said the quiet part out loud. Trump has “plenary authority,” then suddenly went silent. Their plan wasn’t to be public yet. Clearly, someone hit the panic button in his earpiece.

It gets weirder: CNN uploaded the interview with the “plenary authority” comment edited out.
