Seriously, it shouldn't be hard to identify the other reporters in the Oval Office and to ask them why they remain silent when the president of the United States verbally attacks one of their colleagues.

Trump attacking Kaitlan Collins for asking about justice for Epstein survivors: You are the worst reporter. I don’t think I’ve ever seen you smile. Your organization should be ashamed of you.

BASH: Would you be comfortable w/Trump 'taking over' elections nationally?

REP GONZALES: POTUS is bringing up a fact on many Americans' minds - election integrity

B: Isn't the issue that he's not telling the truth?

G: One of the issues is every state does it differently. That gives a lot of doubt

It absolutely could not be clearer that the Constitution gives the states the power to conduct their own elections. It's right there, plain as day. Any attempt to "federalize" state elections would be unconstitutional, undemocratic, and impeachable.

Q: Are you open to negotiating on warrants when it comes to ICE? This is an ask from Schumer

TRUMP: Meaning?

Q: Requiring search warrants for ICE

TRUMP: I haven't even thought about it. I'm not thinking about search warrants

Interesting to see how military tech has enabled them to hide their identities without the traditional white pointy masks.

The Paramilitary ICE and CBP Units at the Center of Minnesota's Killings Two agents involved in the shooting deaths of US citizens in Minneapolis are reportedly part of highly militarized DHS units whose extreme tactics are generally reserved for war zones.

Both SRT and BORTAC are β€œoperator” or SWAT-type units that are patterned off the US military’s special forces teams, not police. They draw heavily on veterans and US Special Operations Command for their ranks.

SRT’s and BORTAC’s roles in putting down protests in 2020 and since President Donald Trump retook power last January have been referenced in several civil suits alleging wanton abuses and civil rights violations by the tactical units.

β€œBORTAC in particular is used to operating in the desert. They are not trained for urban policing,” says Gil Kerlikowske, a former CBP commissioner. β€œThey’re absolutely the wrong tool for the job. It’s like using a chain saw to mow your lawn”

The tactics used by SRT and BORTAC vastly differ from those of local police or sheriffs. They use explosives to breach the doors of homes, and team members are equipped with full tactical gear, assault rifles, and heavy-duty crowd-control weapons.

Two agents involved in the shooting deaths of US citizens in Minneapolis are reportedly part of paramilitary tactical unitsβ€”including ICE’s two Special Response Teams (SRT), CBP’s one SRT, and the Border Patrol Tactical Unit (BORTAC)β€”whose extreme tactics are generally reserved for war zones.

What a huge surprise, since this administration has been promoting these actions all along as counterinsurgency ops. This will also be how they try to legitimize actions at voting locations.
