Good for the law firms that didn't capitulate in advance of this legally empty threat.

Greg Bovino, other federal agents investigated for actions during Operation Metro Surge Hennepin County Attorney Mary Moriarty said her office is already investigating 17 incidents involving potential unlawful conduct by federal agents.

The use of a chemical irritant by Greg Bovino is among 17 instances of β€œpotential unlawful behavior” by federal agents in Minnesota currently being investigated for criminal charges, Hennepin County Attorney Mary Moriarty said.

"That's the way it is," says the five-time draft dodger to our military families who fear their loved one in uniform could be next.

What a disgrace.

Pres Trump told me tonight the US had identified possible candidates to take over Iran, but they were killed in the initial attack.

"The attack was so successful it knocked out most of the candidates," Trump told me. "It's not going to be anybody that we were thinking of because they are all dead. Second or third place is dead."

Kaine on Fox: "The president can act to defend US against imminent attack without congressional approval. But if you're going to initiate war, you need Congress. The president not only did not come to Congress, he acted without even notification to the vast majority of us. This is an illegal war."

One reason: college and law school has gotten so expensive that it’s hard now to work service industry jobs and make enough even to make a tiny dent in the education bill. I had union and other service industry jobs galore, but I graduated college in 1980 and law school in 1984.

There's much to say about what's going on, but what strikes me the most is just how embarrassing he is. The guy who launched an illegal attack that will lead to war and the likely destabilization of much of the Middle East for no real reason is posting like a middle schooler struggling with English.

β€œDepartment of War” is hilarious. When DOD had that name:
1) It did not include the Navy.
2) The Air Force and (blech) Space Force didn’t exist.
3) The name indicated it was for temporary emergencies. We had a small standing army. States raised regiments for wars. No big military establishment.

So much ICE out there today in South Minneapolis. They’re prowling around harassing schools.

Stay frosty, friends

She should have been President. I’ll never get over this country electing a criminal moron instead of probably the most experienced, qualified person to ever run.

Hillary Clinton: β€œYou have held zero public hearings, refused to allow the media to attend them, including today, despite espousing the need for transparency on dozens of occasions.

You have made little effort to call the people who show up most prominently in the Epstein files.β€œ

I’m always suspicious of law and order Democrats. A lot of it is political grandstanding, because in substance there is so much more nuance. I really hope the state can get the lead on the Vance Boelter case, given the problems in the federal office and that the state interests are paramount.

Reading this and thinking of the kinder, more humane world we’d be living in had President Hillary Clinton shepherded our nation during the early days of COVID and ever since.

Imagine how much better we’d feel about the future of this planet

If they want to talk to a First Lady who can answer questions about Epstein, I have a suggestion:

I think we need to take a step back and acknowledge the absurdity of House Republicans targeting their Epstein investigation on HILLARY CLINTON (who says she never met him!) while ignoring DONALD TRUMP (who Epstein described as his best friend!)

These are not serious people or good faith actors.

Important to note that last month the Trump admin tried a similar thing for childcare funding and got smacked down almost immediately once sued.
