This, from @benjaminpenn.bsky.social, is a good update on Epstein review.
But thus far no one is answering Q Pam Bondi probably doesn't want to answer.
DOJ spent 1000s of person-hours in March doing review. What purpose did it serve that it all got scrapped?

There are lots of reasons to compare what is happening now to Nazi Germany and there are also lots of reasons to compare what is happening now to the post-1850 Fugitive Slave Act U.S. and it's *weird* how people respond with interest to the former but total confusion to the latter

If the figures we're getting out of Iran are in the right league, this weekend was, I think, one of the bloodiest state crackdowns of all time. People are talking 12,000-20,000 dead; for comparison Hungary in 1956 was about 2,500, Tiananmen - across country, in multiple cities - probably 1000+

What we're seeing in real time is the deployment of a Secret Police tasked with terrorizing those who live in communities insufficiently subservient to the regime. It's a form of spectacle violence designed undermine the rule of law & any semblance of accountability.
Today at 34 & Park in Minneapolis, a woman tried to drive down the street where a protest had broken out in front of a home ICE was raiding, saying she had a doctor apt to get to. ICE agents busted out her windows, cut off her seatbelt, and pulled her out before arresting her.

And again, the <ultimate> reason we're here is that we've always been here & no one has ever gone to jail for treason, dating back to Iran-Contra & really all the way to Appomattox.
Once again, one of the primary reasons we have arrived at this point (completely out-of-control & unconstitutional abuse of executive power to conduct wildly illegal foreign policy) is that no one, including the most senior people involved, went to jail for the rest of their lives for Iran-Contra.

Gonna repeat again it is very important for people to maintain distinction bt ICE & CBP.
That's bc CBP's Greg Bovino takes orders directly from the White House. Jonathan Ross is ICE but Bovino was present.
Bovino involved in MANY of worst incidents.

But in a sense it's actually worse than a war crime, because there is no war. It's just a crime. It's a crime—murder—whether or not the aircraft can be identified as part of a military force.
