the Trump confidential relations scheme has to be the single most successful intelligence operation in history. they're just doing laps on us now lmfao. respect
I have spoken with several senior FBI counterintelligence officers who believe that there is a reasonably strong prospect that Tulsi Gabbard is a foreign intelligence asset.
As you read WSJ's piece on the super-secret abuse complaint about Tulsi Gabbard, remember that she tried unsuccessfully to wring counterintelligence function away from FBI last year.

Originally published on 6/2/2020 (after the killing of George Floyd), this cartoon seems all too relevant again today.

Scrolling through the photos of Pam Bondi's "Minnesota rioters," it's just hero after hero. Every photo includes a cowardly DHS agent with their back to the camera.
Bondi thinks she's going to win the propaganda war with this shit, but it's never been more clear that they're losing.

in which the federal judiciary will be forced to say that American communities are not allowed to protect themselves from a lawless federal government. lol
The City of Philadelphia has introduced legislation to limited ICE in the city. The Federal Agents can not be masked, must have ID visible, must have arrested warrants signed by federal judges. They can't attack people. If they can't do this, they will be arrested.

unpopular opinion but imo the Obamas have given enough of their lives to this country and expecting them to be perfect or give more is pathologically insane. idk why we expect leadership to be a lifetime sentence. we have other leaders!

Expanding gun ownership in response to ICE’s horrific violence is not a path toward safety or liberation, argues epidemiologist Rachel Hoopsick.
It is a path to more death, more political weakness, and deeper entrenchment of the very forces the Left opposes.

Saying there must be trials isn't just an emotive aspiration.
Congress can:
- Create a new court (complying w/ 6A jury vicinage)
- Give it jurisdiction over defined category of crimes
- Also create dedicated prosecutors for the same
- Strip SCOTUS of appellate jurisdiction
It can be done.
