I always find it interesting how the story changes when a lawyer gets to court. They can say anything they want outside of court without accountability but the rules are vastly different in court where you can get seriously penalized for lying.

It's abundantly clear that a lot of Department of Homeland Security agents take great pleasure in inflicting violence on other people.
The DOJ accuses Martinez of assulting/impeding a federal agent on Oct. 4, even after an agent shot her.
An exhibit filed yesterday shows text messages discussing media coverage of the case.
"I fired 5 rounds and she had 7 holes. Put that in your book boys."

Justice Barrett worried that the tariff refund process would be a mess if the plaintiffs win this case. Maybe you should’ve stayed the administration’s actions upfront. It’s only a mess because SCOTUS allowed it.
