I’m no expert but isn’t one military attacking another military what the kids call “war”? So he’s starting a war?

Agree 💯

I think that while the two situations share some parallels there are also large differences. During Obama we had a long bipartisan debate and agreement which included congress that we were engaged in a GWOT (whether right or not is separate). Not a rogue prez doing whatever he wants.

This reminds me that Jerry Sandusky used his standing as a “religious” man to mask his abuse, named his charity after a concept Jesus taught (The Second Mile) and attended the same church as the cop who closed the investigation!

Last year we got a tip about a children's pastor who'd managed to stay in ministry for decades even as allegations of sex abuse trailed him across four states.

I kept pulling thread and found something far bigger: a 50-year pattern of abuse and cover-up in the largest Pentecostal denomination 🧵 1/

The GOP has finally come out in support of mass transit.

NEW: ICE is planning to build a shadow deportation network in Texas. A proposal outlines a 24/7 transport operation run by armed contractors—turning Texas into the logistical backbone of an industrialized deportation machine.

My latest @wired.com: www.wired.com/story/ice-is...

Early planning documents reviewed by WIRED describe a statewide transport grid designed for steady detainee transfers across Texas, with ICE estimating each trip to average 100 miles. Every county would have its own small, around-the-clock team of contractors collecting immigrants from local authorities deputized by ICE. It is a subtle transfer of the physical custody process into the hands of a private security firm—authorized to carry firearms and perform transport duties “in any and all local, county, state, and ICE locations.”

Polls show that only 33% of Americans blame Democrats for the shutdown. But at this Atlantic staff Zoom meeting, that percentage feels much higher.

Patel's girlfriend performed at Penn State last weekend. A government jet arrived at State College Regional Airport, according to its FAA registration, with an address listing the FBI HQ. The plane then flew to Nashville, where his girlfriend lives.

This brings me allllll the way back to 2011-12. A solid theory of why the Sandusky scandal broke when it did is that Tom Corbett needed to expose what was widely known for political purposes.
