In its own version of "1984," the White House created a pathological narrative about what happened on January 6th. I sat down with Dean Blundell to talk about how, five years on, the coup rolls on, and what that means for the future of the United States and the world.

Just now: Huge mass of agents in a standoff, weapons drawn as Reps. Ilhan Omar, Angie Craig, and Kelly Morrison attempt to conduct congressional oversight at the Whipple Building, which has been HQ for thousands of ICE agents.
ICE ultimately denied the members their due right to oversight.

When I was getting my TS clearance, I to explain to a very young FBI agent why I had a collection on my credit report for 99 cents.
The funny part is - if you're under 30, you're going to say "what a waste of time"
If you're over 40, you're going to ask "Hollywood or Blockbuster"?

These thugs recognize the GOP's "Beautiful Bill" rendered ICE into a massive internal occupation force that, quite literally, assaults our nation's democratic institutions.

‘I don’t hear threatening behavior:’ Fmr. NYPD Lt. analysis of new Renee Good shooting video
Newly released footage from the smartphone of Jonathan Ross, the ICE officer who fatally shot Renee Good in Minneapolis, sheds new light on the shooting. Breaking down the footage with Ali Velshi, Pace University School of Criminal Justice adjunct professor and former NYPD Lieutenant Dr. Darrin Porcher calls the incident “a travesty” and says that Ross’s behavior goes against policing best practices. Porcher says that despite claims that Good was threatening Ross, “that’s not what I see in the video” and adds that the Trump administration is “drawing conclusions far too soon.”
