Wait. It was someone dressed as a cop, driving a fully equipped vehicle that was identical to a real police vehicle including emergency lights…but somehow this was a police impersonator?

Pull my other fucking leg, chief.

This is what happens when you allow thugs in masks to kidnap people off the street and not identify themselves. Now, no one can ever be sure if law enforcement are even who they say they are.

Sen. Booker’s speech was a substantive and moral account of this moment. He did not read the phone book. He did not babble.
For 24 hours @booker.senate.gov laid out a detailed, damning, and critical narrative of truth, history, politics, morality, humanity.

What will you do?

In fact, the building—and all of the property inside it—had already been transferred on Saturday.

It’s unclear where the money is going and what it will be used for, but one source with direct knowledge of the dinners said “it’s all going to the library,” as in the presidential library that will ostensibly be built once Trump leaves office.
