Crockett is the full package. She's had about 20 years as a courtroom lawyer, and it shows as she runs circles around her colleagues in committee. That she's telegenic and scandal-free, is icing on the cake.

The problem, which Mike Johnson knows, is that these officers aren't even identifying themselves as federal agents or law enforcement. Allowing them to hide their identities allows them to hide from accountability. No names, no badges, no warrants, no due process, no hearings, no justice.

Corruption is a major counterintelligence threat. CIA used it to great effect in China in the 2000s, building its source networks there off the culture of avarice and graft. The corruption weakened China. Xi’s purges were a direct result of this realization. www.nytimes.com/2025/06/06/u...

The Chief of the Criminal Division at the US Attorney’s Office/Middle District of Tennessee RESIGNED the same day the Acting US Attorney signed the indictment of Kilmar Abrego Garcia. He writes: “do the right thing, in the right way, for the right reasons.” There are no coincidences.

So Harvard must follow Trump’s DEI ban—but they also must admit more conservative students. That’s laughable. Students from red states won’t be able to compete with students from the real world when they’re being taught the Bible is a history book and enslaved people were “happy workers”.

Stephen Miller is privately raging over deportation numbers he deems too low. So he's shifting huge amounts of law enforcement resources away from fighting serious crimes and into his immigration crackdown. If voters knew about this, they'd recoil. 1/ (new piece) newrepublic.com/article/1961...

We are now risking lives and actively letting people die because they can't afford inhalers. Why? Because insurance companies are emboldened to not cover them under Trump. Cole Schmidtknecht died because of price-gouging — and he didn't have to.
