Homeland Security is targeting Americans with this secretive legal weapon Under Trump, the Department of Homeland Security has weaponized administrative subpoenasΒ to attack free speech, according to privacy and civil rights groups.

This is horrible! They can make your life scary and uncomfortable for no good reason and try to keep you quiet. We're in trouble! wapo.st/4rtfCw8

The smell can be pretty bad, I hear.

Again, if you think the creation of the Department of Defense in 1947 had anything to do with β€œwoke” politics you should not be allowed to operate a car much less the entire American military.

A lesson from policingβ€”when you grow an agency like this it leads to big problems, internal corruption, disciplinary issues etc. Not good.

Perhaps not completely random, but my mom left a tour of the White House in the early '50s to use the restroom. A man asked if he could help her, and he pointed the way to the women's room. She swears it was VP Nixon.

Ah! I see where you're going with this. She's heavily subsidized with few responsibilities. No farm, only wild ducks to chase out of the pool. Pretty sure she'd claim semi-retirement at her age, anyway.

Democrats should run ads just of Miller ranting.

The screeching voice, the sneering face, even the awkward jerking of his body β€” it’s like a car alarm took human form.

A Tesla alarm, I guess, given the Nazi stuff
