I was briefed on the intelligence last week.

Iran posed no imminent threat of attack to the United States. Iran was not close to building a deliverable nuclear weapon. The negotiations Israel scuttled with their strikes held the potential for success.

Stephen Miller told ICE and Border Patrol to violate the Constitution and they agreed. There needs to be severe penalties for this

Birth certificate. That’s the document the right is obsessed with.

And genital exam of a teenager is a few years too late to determine β€œat birth,” which is the time designated by the statute.

To be fair, the bill does NOT mandate genital inspections. It *only* prohibits anyone born male - based on that β€œperson's reproductive biology and genetics at birth” - from playing women’s sports.

That’s bad enough. Canceling trans kids is bad enough. Hyberbole is unnecessary.

At the direction of RFK Jr., America’s newly confirmed secretary of Health and Human Services, the CDC has suddenly fired nearly 1,300 employees in a single day. 10% of America’s vital team of health experts β€” considered global leaders in disease control β€” have been axed.

It is perfectly legal to know your rights and to educate others about them, too.

EVERYONE in the United States, citizen or not, has rights. I will not allow this administration to intimidate us from helping you know about them.

Read the Resignation Letter From Hagan Scotten Hagan Scotten, an assistant U.S. attorney, wrote to Emil Bove, acting deputy attorney general, refusing to drop the case against Mayor Eric Adams.

The lead prosecutor on the Adams investigation - Hagan Scotten - resigns from SDNY.

β€œI expect you will eventually find someone who is enough of a fool, or enough of a coward, to file your motion [to dismiss Adams charges]. But it was never going to me.”

Trump Official’s Demand in Adams Case Forces Justice Dept. Showdown A crisis at the department over the Eric Adams case is an early test of the criminal justice system’s resilience against a retribution-minded president and his appointees.

Very proud of the 8 DOJ attorneys who have refused to dismiss the Adams case. Their oath is to the Constitution, not the president.

DOJ leadership has put all Public Integrity Section lawyers into a room with 1 hour to decide who will dismiss Adams indictment or else all will be fired. Sending them strength to stand by their oath, which is to support the Constitution, not the president’s political agenda. πŸ‡ΊπŸ‡Έ

Please share this and tell the world that OPM is not the bad guy. We're just as helpless to stop this as the rest of our fellow public servants. Hopefully someone out there can help us, but it’s looking pretty grim."

The non-political civil servants here at OPM are watching helplessly as our government is being systematically dismantled bit by bit. Even the IGs are being fired to prevent them from investigating the numerous whistleblower complaints we've filed.

It's been [this server] sending those various β€œtest” message you've all seen. [And the Fork in the Road email.] We think they're building a massive email list of all federal employees to generate mass RIF notices down the road.

Instead, an on-prem (on-site) email server was setup. Someone literally walked into our building and plugged in an email server to our network to make it appear that emails were coming from OPM.
