Beyond helping establish DHS itself in 2003, Mr. Mitnick was a senate-confirmed Trump choice for General Counsel for DHS in his first term. I've talked with him a few times, and he's not a man for hyperbole. So bear that in mind when you see him calling out DHS's "lawlessness, fascism, and cruelty."

So important. What they say is not the story. That is never the story. What happened is the story. Write what happened.

It’s taken 7 months to ruin the CDC - the world authority in public health and identifying/managing emerging infections - in the effort to legitimize pseudoscience. What a loss for this country.
In Atlanta, staff at the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention gathered to applaud colleagues who resigned following the firing of Director Susan Monarez. With four top officials stepping down, many now feel that the CDC is effectively finished.
US CDC chief fired after weeks in role, challenges ouster as four top officials resign
Susan Monarez has been fired less than a month after being sworn in, and four senior officials have resigned amid growing tensions over vaccine policies and public health directives.

I am disappointed in the MGW and Eze outcomes but #THFC was done dirty by both Forest and CP. First club somehow was able to not honor a release clause and the second strung us along while awaiting a call from Arsenal. I hope our disdain for them will fuel us to smashing victory when we play.

When I was a child, I learned that the Constitution didn’t apply to people like us. I said the Pledge of Allegiance from inside a barbed wire camp, the words “with liberty and justice for all” wholly meaningless.
But I did not give up on America. I’ve spent my life fighting for its ideals.

When we were children, we were taught that no matter how you reached, no matter much wealth and power you accumulated, you were not above the law.
We can no longer teach our children that.
And that's really fucking tragic.
