With respect to this top staffer and their grief, I think this is a mistake. For Mike Lee and the sort of people who would work for him, it’s great news that they caused more pain to Democrats. They have no decency to which one could appeal. They will consume this with laughter, not regret.

So Trump's leaving early from G7 ostensibly to attend to Israel-Iran war that Israel launched against his wishes. Then he refused to sign G7 statement on the war demonstrating he's odd man out wherever he goes. Then he pushed for Putin membership in G7 and got snubbed. So now going home in a snit.

My fed agency helped build an IRS login system that didn't rely on face recognition, we felt it was invasive. For this were attacked by The Daily Wire as "a cabal of perpetually triggered leftists obsessed with politics and pronouns" Per Musk's tweets, this is part of the reason he fired us all.

If you go to protests, please look into ANSI Z87.1 or MIL-PRF-32432A rated ballistic eye protection. Another thing you might see is APEL which is the Army's Authorized Protective Eyewear List which is tested and validated against the Army's requirements for ballistic fragmentation protection.

At yesterday's protests in Atlanta, police arrested the respected journalist Mario Guevara—clearly ID'd as press and, crucially, known for tirelessly documenting ICE abuses—for livestreaming their crackdown. He was booked on charges of "obstruction" and "pedestrian walking on or along" a roadway.

Just an appreciation post for Jacob being on the scene. In the absence of this reporting it would have been he-said/she-said. The sheriffs attacked peaceful protestors including kids with flashbangs, tear gas, and rubber bullets. We need more peaceful protest and more documentation on the ground.

I don't care if these monstrous ICE raids are a "federal operation". This is authoritarian violence, plain and simple. Just because Stephen Miller has kidnapping quotas for brown people he doesn't want to see on the street doesn't mean we have to think it's okay.

This reminds me of nothing so much as the time that a few dozen neo-Nazis held an embarrassingly tiny rally in DC, thousands of counter-protesters showed up, and I started a chant of “where are your friends? Where are your friends?”
