Former FBI official: Tulsi Gabbard should have nothing to do with law enforcement operations whatsoever. She was in a truck with boxes of what are apparently ballots. She is gonna need to be on the chain of custody for those ballots and explain why she was with them and what she was doing.

From what I'm hearing from folks on the ground, this is exactly correct. This regime does nothing but lie, and they respond to nothing but strength. Dems and other leaders should recognize they're weak now - ignore the propaganda and go on offense.
I'm calling bullshit on the media narrative that Trump is "pivoting" and "deescalating" on his ICE raids. The threshold is this: As long as the military occupations and the treatment of US cities as enemy territory continue, there's no pivot. ICE out. 1/
