For those who don’t know the reference: When Cox was a BPD officer, several other officers mistook him for the perp they were chasing and beat the living crap out of him before realizing their mistake, leaving him, and never reporting the incident.

The thing about BPD’s commissioner is he knows a little about how an innocent person of color can get caught up by overzealous law enforcement. If Homan thinks he’s gonna out-tough Michael Cox I assure you that ain’t happening.

Hegseth wrote the below prior to becoming SecDef, but he doesn’t need to “doubt” now - he could do a thorough review of Brown’s record, promotions, and merit. But all Black or female success to him is inherently suspect, its merit cannot be proven, and thus it must be reversed.

Could totally be a coincidence that the blatantly racist and misogynistic President and SecDef did this

What actually bothers me about Schumer’s old “you have released the whirlwind and you will pay the price” is that you REAP the whirlwind. You sow the wind and reap the whirlwind. Releasing the whirlwind would be a whole different thing. He butchered a great proverb.

Things I ponder: I wonder if Patel is smart enough to know that he’ll last exactly as long as he proves useful to Trump, and that the very next minute Trump will hurl him right under a bus. My guess is yes, Patel understands this.

FWIW much of the right wing marketplace adopted a while back the belief that all Dems opposing Patel confirmation were doing so b/c they’re terrified he’ll release the Epstein cohorts list, which they’re all on, as proved by their opposition to the Patel confirmation.

Once again, and sorry I have to keep saying this to my T and non-B friends, family, and acquaintances: I’m so sorry that your federal government is doing all this to you; you have done nothing to deserve it; and I am hoping that you all get through the persecution to a better time ahead.
