Yet another example of the erosion in the rule of law by this regime.

Dems somehow lose the messaging war on pedophiles. Make this your entire platform. They're giving you SO MUCH MATERIAL. Literally say THEY WON'T SWEAR IN THIS WOMAN BECAUSE SHE WANTS TO RELEASE THE EPSTEIN FILES.

Hire me as your consultant. We will win. Stop hiring Adam Jentleson. He's an idiot.

Bob Ross paintings to be auctioned to support public TV stations after federal funding cuts Thirty paintings by Bob Ross are set to be auctioned to support public television stations. The Bonhams auction is to begin Nov. 11 in Los Angeles with three of the paintings.

'Thirty paintings created by the bushy-haired, soft-spoken Bob Ross will soon be up for auction to defray the costs of programming for small and rural public television stations suffering under cuts in federal funding.'

OMB deletes reference to law guaranteeing backpay to furloughed feds from shutdown guidance An Office of Management and Budget FAQ document now states that only excepted employees forced to work without pay are guaranteed backpay at the conclusion of a lapse in appropriations.

Deleting a reference at OMB regarding back pay for furloughed workers doesnโ€™t make it not exist.

Lawmakers Demand Information About Potential Use of Paragon Spyware by ICE The lawmakers warned that allowing ICE to use spyware โ€œthreatens Americansโ€™ freedom of movement and freedom of speech.โ€โ€ฆ

I grow weary of seeing an administration that routinely violates & subverts federal court orders & ignores black-letter law being given a stern talking to like this is going to change their behavior. They wont stop, they need to be forced to stop.

Criminals pretending to be law enforcement.

The โ€œdual stateโ€ theory was invented to describe Nazis. The Supreme Court could take us there. Authoritarianismโ€”but make it look like the rule of law.

The dual state, invented to describe the Nazis, is two-faced twice over: It is characterized by a bifurcation in the law, but also by the facade of normalcy, obscuring the fact of an authoritarian state.

This term, the Supreme Court could take us right there.

Remember: the policies leading to bankruptcy are purposeful. Our food supply is in dangerโ€ฆthere is no better way to bring a country to its knees than having control of its food supply.

And while these messages are blatant violations of the Hatch Act, the administration sent out a Hatch Act policy to all federal employees this week to remind them that THEY must follow Hatch Act on Social media. END/

This is an all employee announcement to employees of the Department of the Interior with the same baseless lies. These are all violations of the Hatch Act, by the way. 5/

Donโ€™t let Republicans gaslight you into believing that Trump isnโ€™t planning on unleashing our military on US citizens.

He flat out said the military should use cities as โ€œtraining groundsโ€ to combat the โ€œwar from within.โ€ This is code for itโ€™s ok to shoot or harm anyone who protests against him.
