This seems significant: not a FORMER DHS official, but a SENIOR (current) one saying the officer who fired acted counter to training.

This is not an admin that admits mistakes. And they are hanging this guy out to dry on Day One.

I think they know this is bad. Really bad.

Raju: The Speaker and others have said that this driver was weaponizing her vehicle.

AOC: Their editorializing of this event to justify a public murder is disgusting. It is horrifying. Watch it for yourself and make that assessment for yourself on which of these leaders are lying to you.

Once again, a mere handful of people in Washington could caucus today with the Democrats & put an end to ~90% of the worst things immediately.

They even have names: bsky.app/profile/mcop...

We should stop giving these people free passes every day & yell at them like everyone yells at Democrats.

Samuel Alito flew two flags used by insurrectionists.

Clarence Thomas' wife plotted to overturn the 2020 election.

Both justices refused to recuse themselves from SCOTUS cases related to the January 6th plot.

It's a stain on our nation that this has effectively been forgotten.

Five years ago, Donald Trump instigated a violent insurrection in the Capitol to prevent Congress from certifying Joe Biden the winner of the 2020 election. The fact that the GOP coddled him, protected him, renominated him, and now support him in office, is a stain that will never be erased.

On January 6th, 2021, when Trump incited an insurrection, America's corporate leaders rushed to distance themselves from him.

Today, as Trump destroys our democracy at home and stages more coups abroad, they're sucking up to him to pad their own bottom lines. www.youtube.com/watch?v=MC0v...

It’s genuinely wild that the United States spent decades building an elaborate rules-based international order which de facto cemented its permanent status as the dominant global hegemon, sustained by ideology rather than might, and now is just blowing it all up for literally no reason
