Apropos of nothing, here's a thread of some Charlie Kirk highlights

What if Trump organized the hit on Charlie Kirk just to distract us from the Epstein files?!

@govpritzker.illinois.gov's take on Kirk is the correct one:

"Political violence, unfortunately, has ramped up in this country ... I think there are people who are fomenting it in this country. I think the president's rhetoric often foments it."

On point. So glad Democrats are saying this.

This is an actual exchange from a VP who took an oath to defend the constitution and, as a citizen, is expected to abide by the law.

May we one day have accountability for the grotesque lawlessness of this regime.

This is real: President Trump is standing on the roof of the White House briefing room right now and no one knows why

Jesus was woke.

Ex-U.S. military translator from Afghanistan arrested by ICE in CT. Attorney calls it ‘nonsensical.’ The 35-year-old husband and father of five was taken into custody by ICE agents outside a routine green card appointment in East Hartford.

Zia, an Afghan interpreter who risked his life to help U.S. troops, is being detained by ICE in Massachusetts.

He's been living in the U.S. LEGALLY for fear of retribution if he returns to Afghanistan.

Targeting Zia and other Afghan allies is dangerous and wrong.

Her extensive travel overseas as Secretary of State--including to Russia--would have created situations where she was move vulnerable to various Russian intelligence surveillance and monitoring capabilities.

There's this section of HPSCI doc Tulsi released today that is almost charming--first a doc dump of docs SVR stole fr Hillary & maybe fabricated, then a bunch of, "BUT IF RU REALLY WANTED TO HELP OR HURT" which is all right wing brain rot.

Here, they talk about vulnerable Hillary was on RU trips.

this guy makes me wish i were a new york voter

A U.S. citizen who was arrested for filming an ICE raid at Home Depot is suing the federal government for $1 million— and I hope he gets every penny.

THIS‼️ When being transported, Garcia heard agents boasting about how many ‘bodies’ they had gotten that day and saw them celebrate with high fives.

As White House Steers Justice Dept., Bondi Embraces Role of TV Messenger

Some interesting details here about Stephen Miller’s influence at DOJ but a better story would be about how Bondi’s TV appearances appear to violate DOJ policies and professional ethical rules, which could make certain cases more difficult to try.

Trump backs down on his trade deal promises during a presser with Mark Carney: "We don't have to sign deals. We could sign 25 deals right now if we wanted. We're gonna sit down and put fair numbers down and say 'here's what we want' and we'll have a deal."

Canadian Prime Minister Carney to Donald Trump on Canada being for sale:

"It's not for sale. It won't be for sale, ever."

Donald: "Never say never."

So cringe.

Some personal news: the Department of Homeland Security has given me, an immigration lawyer born in Newton, Massachusetts, seven days to leave the U.S. Does anyone know if you can get Italian citizenship through great-grandparents?

Donald Trump's doctor's report from his annual physical was just released.

"Cognitive function, assessed using the Montreal Cognitive Assessment (MoCA), was normal with a score of 30 out of 30."

Not buying any of it.

Do something cringe.

Important. Either Trump is so far gone mentally he doesn’t know what he’s doing, or people are acting in his name without his knowledge. This was an order with enormous implications, and the President of the United States says he didn’t do it.
