Considering how much the press ignored the last protests, maybe we should plan for big crowds around TV stations and newspapers to make it hard for them to get to work. At least then they couldn't pretend they didn't notice.

The Trump administration is offering $60K in student loan forgiveness as a recruitment tool for ICE, which just proves fighting Biden on student loan relief was never about the loans or “paying your own debt.” It was about who was offering it and who it would’ve helped.

I think Halligan is failing to give all the info. Which is why Comey has said he’s filing a motion to dismiss on abuse of the grand jury process. I’m guessing though.

In late July, Paul Ingrassia, the White House liaison for the Department of Homeland Security, arrived at a Ritz-Carlton in Orlando with a lower-ranking female colleague and others from their department. When the group reached the front desk, the woman learned she didn't have a hotel room.
Ingrassia then informed her that she would be staying with him, according to five administration officials familiar with the episode. Eventually the woman discovered that Ingrassia had arranged ahead of time to have her hotel room canceled so she would have to stay with him, three of those officials said.
