Explain to me why I’m standing in front of my childrens’ schools in subzero weather trying to make sure none of their classmates are kidnapped by armed, masked goons then.

Democrats gonna flip 100 House seats.

It’s a Big Herrenvolk and you ain’t in it. You and I are not in the Big Herrenvolk. Again, if a single Democrat ever talked about punishing rural areas like this for ___, it would be a nonstop national scandal for months on end. But Republicans can treat cities & urban residents like this & 🦗🦗

Destroying air travel in the U.S. before the midterms is a boss move, Markwayne. Don't listen to squishes who tell you voters won't like it. Do it and be a legend.

After Border Patrol shot two people in Portland, DHS claimed they were "vicious gang members" tied to a past shooting. But records I obtained reveal a US prosecutor has since directly contradicted DHS, saying, "We're not suggesting he is a gang member." My dive into how DHS' claims have collapsed:

How many different ways can they tell us they’re the worst people in the world?

Everything moves so fast now. It's impossible to give every event the care and attention it deserves, especially when the bar is "at least no one died." But what happened in Portland outside the ICE building was evidence of yet another escalation—and a terrifying harbinger of things to come.

Again, my big takeaway from four-plus years of reporting on the Trump Hotel DC— Norms aren’t laws and, unless they’re enforced quickly, laws ain’t shit.

Judge Reyes starts with a comparison: George Washington versus Kristi Noem.

"I won MN three times but I got no credit for it" is just batshit crazy dementia talk. He genuinely thinks he kept winning and "they" just kept stealing it from him. It's like he thinks squirrels stole his glasses, or the wind is saying mean things about him. This can't go on much longer.

Here we go….

404 Media is publishing a version of the user guide for the Palantir-made tool called ELITE, which lets ICE bring up dossiers on individual people and provides a “confidence score” of their address. www.404media.co/here-is-the-...

Again, it all should have ended when he started monetizing the presidency at his hotel in 2017, three blocks from the White House. But everyone in Congress decided that he is One Special Boy, & so here we are. Unprecedented corruption in plain sight.

Trump on his multiple suits against the federal government: "I'm supposed to work out a settlement with myself ... We could make it a substantial amount, nobody would care, because it's gonna go to numerous, very good charities."

Federal paramilitaries running up on the rooftops to fire irritants and flash bangs down into a peaceable assembly full of little kids

Just experienced the most intense tear gassing of my life by federal officers outside the ICE facility in Portland where marchers gathered. There was no fast exit as they indiscriminately threw loads of gas and flash bangs. Children were in the crowd screaming. @oregoncapitalchronicle.com

The thing about this Epstein shit is that you have no idea where the bottom is. I feel like I'm learning that space aliens are real. It's far bigger than I could have imagined. This is something that is going to affect how future generations of American view their country.

NEW: School hallways are silent. Grandparents patrol outside in shifts. Two more kids taken from Liam Ramos' school. Trump isn't deescalating ICE at all at MN schools. “I stopped wearing my high heels to work. I wear my boots to work because I have had to run." www.huffpost.com/entry/ice-mi...

Wow, buckle up. The early vote just came in Tarrant County, and Democrat Taylor Rehmet is up 56% to 44% in the special election for a Texas state Senate seat. This is a seat that went for Trump by 17%. This would be a huge upset. This is already 45K votes.

This incident alone would have triggered hearings and probably a senior-level resignation in another administration.

They offer detailed recommendations keyed to each current major (unusable or inadequate) remedy for federal misconduct and how to make it more usable and adequate.

JUST NOW: In a trainwreck presser, DAG Todd Blanche “won’t commit” to releasing names of ICE agents who killed Alex Pretti—seems confused about who is investigating (No wonder federal prosecutors resigned) Full: www.instagram.com/reel/DUJRXIb...

Conservatives are currently pursuing a national strategy to ban grace periods for ballots sent through the mail. The U.S. Supreme Court will issue a ruling that could eliminate grace periods across the country.

DOJ has since killed this link. This is what was there:

Six days ago federal officers murdered a man in the streets of Minneapolis and we still don't know their identities. Is there any modern precedent for this?

I think about this post at least once a week

the president of the united states should not be allowed to personally loot the treasury to the sum of ten billion dollars and that this is not resulting in immediate, unanimous impeachment is a dramatic indictment of what has become of our political system

what’s astounding about this is not only the incredible cruelty but the complete lack of even the most basic public relations instincts they kidnap a five year old and generate national outrage and rather than do some basic window dressing to treat him nice while abusing everyone else they do this

Being a journalist is sick: I just contacted a pre-eminent jaguar conservationist in Argentine with a question that has been weighing on me for ages and he wrote back right away with an informed answer.

This giant ICE Army they are building this year is also likely to be at polling places during the midterms in heavily Democratic precincts with the excuse being that they are looking for “illegals trying to vote.”

I cannot stress how completely bizarre & unheard of it is for the DNI to be personally present for a search warrant execution, never mind this one.
