the goal of oversight is to fact-find. but obviously there should be consequences! this is an egregious lapse, even if mere incompetence.

It’s not that much of an overstatement to say that Oregon’s far right fight clubs from the first Trump administration have basically morphed into the official volunteer comms team of the second Trump administration. bsky.app/profile/seth...
I've long wondered what happened to the Proud Boys and Patriot Prayer, far right groups that were ubiquitous in 2018-20 but who seemed to have largely disappeared. It turns out they've come back together not in the form of a street fighting unit, but in the form of "citizen journalists" on Twitter.
