This is where we are at now:

“ICE agents surrounded, seized, and zip-tied a U.S. citizen who had just finished working a double shift because she didn’t “look” American to them. She had her U.S. passport on her when she was detained, yet she was interrogated for an hour.”

Murkowski built her reputation as a bipartisan during Administrations that didn’t test her. When actual courage was needed she capitulated, fearing for her safety. And now her flood ravaged constituents will have no practical FEMA support to rebuild their lives. Lisa will be fine however.

One thing you learn in recovery circles is that an apology for your behavior should not include any justification words like "while I never intended to harm anyone." Otherwise it's a walls-up personal defense, not an apology.

Klippenstein: The memo says it considers as indicators things like anti-Christian sentiment, anti-government views, and anti-traditional family positions.
