A Jan. 6 rioter pardoned by Trump was sentenced to life in prison for child sex abuse Since receiving presidential pardons, dozens of former Capitol rioters have gotten into more legal trouble. In Florida, Andrew Paul Johnson was sentenced to life in prison for child sex abuse.

He’s like a really bad actor in a 1980s B action movie that went straight to video.

I want to know Secretary Noem's plan to stop masked ICE and CBP agents from killing American citizens like Renee Good and Alex Pretti. We can enforce our immigration laws without terrorizing American citizens and immigrant communities.

So if you want to understand the end-times theology Weinstein is alleging was promoted to troops by their commanders, read this piece I published this morning at @talkingpointsmemo.com:

Trump DOJ Pushes to Sideline State Bar Ethics Investigations (2) The Justice Department has proposed a regulation seeking to authorize Attorney General Pam Bondi to suspend state bar ethics investigations into current and former DOJ lawyersβ€”a step outside attorneys...

However, the department does not have authority over state bar disciplinary boards. The proposal instead asks state bar associations to pause their own investigations until the Justice Department completes its internal review.

Well, if this isn’t corruption in plain sight. If you don’t want consequences for breaking the law, then don’t break the law.

The Justice Department is now attempting to step into disciplinary cases being handled by state bar associations against its own attorneys.

"It is fraud" -- Neguse nails Kristi Noem for lying during her testimony yesterday when she told the Senate that DHS's $220m ad campaign starring her "went out to a competitive bid" (it did not), and tells her "I think there's gonna be accountability" (1/2)

this is very good work by neguse; these are questions that *have* answers, purpose-built LLCs happen all the time, but noem is categorically unprepared to answer those questions and barely seems to understand what she’s being asked

Richard Clarke, Former Counterterrorism Chief, Apologizes for 9/11
YouTube video by PublicApologyCentral Richard Clarke, Former Counterterrorism Chief, Apologizes for 9/11

Watching first Democrat Senators and now Representatives try to get DHS Sec Kristi Noem to apologize, and fail, reminded me of this remarkable moment from 2004. Richard Clarke was a counter-terrorism official when 9/11 happened.

ABRAHAM LINCOLN: VAMPIRE HUNTER (2012)

At the 37 min. mark, historians @herberthistory.bsky.social and
@hcrichardson.bsky.social discuss how ALVH uses vampire mythology as a metaphor for oligarchy and White Nationalism. Sounds kinda current, huh?

Once again, the words are real and rough, and difficult at the same time betraying fluidity and temporality of existence. Bravo

Just days before the United States launched a major military operation in Iran, FBI Director Kash Patel fired a dozen agents and staff members from a counterintelligence unit tasked with monitoring threats from Iran, according to two sources familiar with the matter. https://cnn.it/3OKIl1o
