It's profoundly different to cover a U.S. president than state or local officials, and too, much harder to vent publicly if you're female. But if in my reporting days, if anyone from a police sergeant to the mayor of Baltimore told me, "Quiet, piggy," I'd immediately insist he go fuck himself.

NEW: When Andrew Tate landed in the US, Customs & Border Protection seized his electronic devices. But @propublica.org found that a White House official told DHS to return the devices, emphasizing that the request came from the White House.

The White House Intervened on Behalf of Accused Sex Trafficker Andrew Tate During a Federal Investigation
Federal authorities were chided for seizing electronic devices from Tate and his brother, and told to return them, records and interviews show. Experts said the intervention was highly inappropriate.

At the onset of a career in journalism, I was taught a hard rule that one should never put himself in the story: You are the teller, not the tale.
Editors told us the rule prioritized the subject of our work. Olivia Nuzzi makes it plain we were being protected from showing the world our assholes.

Yeah, my messaging is devoid of any critique of police excess or mission failure, with a clear admiration for the drug war, police violence and corruption. The Corner, The Wire and We Own This City are there to Back the Blue. My evil output aside, Defund is still moronic and self-defeating rhetoric.

Never mind every other single abominable or corrupt thing to this miserable moment, the extrajudicial and unevidenced execution of 34 human beings by the U.S. Navy on the orders of a U.S. President acting in peacetime is sufficient for his impeachment and conviction.
