EXCLUSIVE: One Saturday afternoon in October, my phone lit up with a notification.
I glanced down at the message.
“Anna, Lindsey Halligan here,” it began.
So began my text exchange with the woman who is prosecuting the president's perceived political enemies.

I have approximately zero following on this app, sharing in the hopes it can get in front of the right person. A man I went to college with’s wife was kidnapped by ICE at a green card hearing, and he’s trying to find a reporter who will speak to him about the situation

This is the POTUS gleefully admitting he is violating a prominent critic’s 1st Amendment rights and the Constitution for personal profit. Again.
If Americans saw this in another country then they would wisely conclude that, if about half the country is ok with this, there is serious trouble ahead.

Nothing could make me want to join and fund Antifa- as if that were actually a singular, cohesive organization- more than this tweet:

On 6/28/25 2 men impersonating ICE Officers committed a violent armed robbery in Milton, DE. The widely reported tactics utilized by plainclothes ICE Officers render Delaware’s otherwise very reasonable Public Safety Advisory regarding traffic stops insufficient and dangerous. #ICE #Trump #Delaware

Why am I so unimpressed by these strikes? Israel and the US have failed to target significant elements of Iran's nuclear materials and production infrastructure. RISING LION and MIDNIGHT HAMMER are tactically brilliant, but may turn out to be strategic failures. 🧵 1/17

Israel just struck Iran's nuclear facilities with 200 aircraft and 330+ munitions. But they haven't stopped Iran's nuclear program yet. What's going on? And what happens next? peterwildeford.substack.com/p/the-fordow...

Trump has undermined public trust in the law through: his own crimes, pardons for criminal friends, and violations of federal law in immigration enforcement.
Immigration officers are therefore operating in an environment of intense public distrust. That’s the base ingredient spawning protest.

Fitzgerald was so real writing “They were careless people - they smashed up things and creatures and then retreated back into their money or their vast carelessness or whatever it was that kept them together and let other people clean up the mess they had made.” So many messes they won’t be cleaning
It’s bad because of all the collateral damage (us) but also good because we have so little to enjoy in American politics
