Note to Sen. Chris Van Hollen -- @vanhollen.senate.gov

Safe travels to and in El Salvador. And when you're there, don't speak merely for the Democratic Party or for your state of Maryland.

Speak for America.

This is a very good point. I saw a ton of people on LinkedIn defend the Uber CISO after he got convicted… but almost nobody saying anything about Krebs.

Once you disturb the sacrosanct position of citizenship and due process in the bundle of rights, the bundle comes apart and you're left barely grabbing onto whatever you can salvage.

Exactly. And if he had committed a thousand crimes, it wouldn’t be a heavy lift to prove just one. But DHS and the White House offer nothing but conclusory bullshit.

1/4. On the White House’s theory, if they abduct you, get you on a helicopter, get to international waters, shoot you in the head, and drop your corpse into the ocean, that is legal, because it is the conduct of foreign affairs.

Been a bit delayed in posting but here are some updated pictures of the electrical upgrade. Most of the wiring is in place but still needs to be organized / tied down. Was able to power on the BMS and the 48-12 DC-DC Converters as well as get the inverters programmed.
