This is more for me to keep track of atrocities as they happen.

1. Rendition of Venezuelans to El Salvador without due process. Subsequent defiance of a court order

2. Targeting Law firms. Paul Weiss, Perkins, Jenner.

3. Cutting USAID

4. Leaking classified information over signal.
@preetbharara.bsky.social I am about to be a senior associate at a BigLaw firm in a corporate transactional practice. In the next administration I would like to join the DOJ and help repair its tarnished reputation. With my background, which departments do you think I could add value to #askpreet

Publishing all the other boat murder videos but refusing to release the one of the two survivors being killed is an admission they know exactly how bad it looks. There's no other distinction to draw there, no reason to publish the others while withholding that one.

The president is a political cartoon of corruption come to life, a gaudy grifter who is selling off pardons and lining his pockets, building a golden ballroom and protecting his fellow sex predator elites, all the while regular Americans are suffering and struggling to make ends meet.

Run on *that*

BREAKING: Thom Tillis just announced he won’t seek re-election.

That means that there will be an open North Carolina Senate seat in 2026.

Let’s flip it.

Just call it the Self-Inflicted Wound Era, when we took a bunch of stuff that was working largely fine (vaccines, weather monitoring, friendly relations with like 175 countries, cancer research, renewable energy credits, the FAA, global trade, etc etc) and just broke them for giggles

Good thing the regime that’s trying to start WW3 hasn’t just spent the last 5 months decimating US soft power abroad, diverting most domestic counterterrorism assets to abducting people en masse, and compiling/analysing data on all its citizens to potentially target opposition with a military draft.

The Overton Window has shifted all the way to ban all non-white people from coming to America. It was never about illegal immigration.

WTF did I just watch.

The DNI is just propagandist now.
Director of National Intelligence Tulsi Gabbard posted a bizarre video about nuclear bombs on X this morning.

She says we are “closer to the brink of nuclear annihilation than ever before…”

(Breaking the video into a 2 part 🧵 bc of video post limits, but watch to the end..it gets weird.)

Everything that’s happened over the past six months has been a response to an imaginary crisis. There is no immigrant invasion. No trade crisis. No scientific or governance crisis. Just people completely high off their own supply trying to fundamentally reorder society. None of this had to happen.

The Home music system was gifted to me about 2 years ago and it gets progressively worse.

Oh shit. I am agreeing with Rand Paul on something.

Pigs are flying
Rand Paul: "The whole [tariffs] debate is so fundamentally backwards & upside down. It's based on a fallacy & the fallacy is this: that somehow in a trade, someone must lose. That somehow when you trade with someone, someone is taking advantage of you... I have a trade deficit with my grocery store"
