They’ve chosen their scapegoat for this week.
BREAKING NYT: The Trump Justice Department has opened a criminal investigation into Corey Lewandowski over accusations that he personally profited from his role as a top adviser to the Department of Homeland Security, according to two officials with knowledge of the situation.

It’s like a Pavlovian conditioning experiment on a macro scale. Say the buzzword, MAGA salivates.
Yesterday, JD Vance, a Yale Law grad, couldn't define what "socialism" means. Instead of defining it, Vance talked about boys in girls sports. This admin has devalued its words, and would be admitting to supporting the same policies they attack others for if they told the truth. Link below ⬇️
These aren’t policy differences. This is psychopathy. This is a full departure from reality and the idea that a sitting president fantasizes about visiting destruction and death upon our own cities is so far beyond anything my mind could have imagined outside of some dystopian fiction.
The PRESIDENT OF THE UNITED STATES stood on a stage and said: “Let ’em take out Los Angeles. Let ’em take out San Diego.” And people CHEERED. I’m sorry, but what the actual fuck are we doing?
I think people really underestimate how badly the evangelical movement bastardizes Scripture and the faith in general. It was only when I was deep in study preparing for ministry that I came to see it for what it was and made the decision to leave.
As a man of faith, I find Pete Hegseth's twisting of Scripture abhorrent. Hegseth has been citing the Bible to justify Donald Trump's illegal war, but those very same scriptures say something quite different. Let's take a look. (link below)

When I was a young Army MP NCO and briefing the shift, I would usually include a warning about the “how-dare-you” mindset during interactions. If you’ve been an LEO or spent time around it, you know what I mean. Ego kills.
If trained officers can’t stay calm during a 7 on 1 arrest, how do you expect a citizen to stay calm when he is being punched, disarmed, maced, and shot? Post Anything Here: InteractInk.com
If there is anything for which I am grateful to this nightmare administration, it’s the revelation that our supposed checks and balances amongst the three allegedly co-equal branches of government are somewhat toothless and need some reworking.
Why would Trump feel pressure to follow a court order? The CORRUPT GOP Supreme Court gave him immunity. Plus he knows there is no one who can enforce this order. Trump is how our Republic dies--unless we win the House AND the Senate!
Squeaker Johnson does it again, this time to avoid accountability for the former Fox host with the personality of a mayonnaise lasagna.
More than tired of watching grown men and women, who were sent to DC to be voices for their constituents, debase themselves and betray their people just so they can suckle at the teat of an octogenarian rapist. The party of might-is-right and masculinity, am I right?
It seems like there may be some hope in the legal wrangling, but I don’t think they care. The implementation will cause enough disruption to disenfranchise large swathes of the population, even if the policy is eventually reversed. It’s fast and indiscriminate which causes fear and confusion.
“Potentially millions of American voters may not receive their mail-in ballot this election cycle in a timely manner, or at all,” the whistleblower warned.

Sad that there is even a need for this. How about we just pit our drones against each other and whoever runs out of toys first loses. Of course that would hamper their efforts to eliminate non-Christian brown people much more difficult.
One soldier's concerns about soldiers’ survival in the drone-dominated combat of the future initially led him to start tinkering with electronics he bought online. Now, he's putting the finishing touches on a drone detector that soldiers can wear like protective gear. Learn more:
True to form for Trumplicans who are now upset that the flashy violence isn’t enough, despite the still-dizzying rate of detention, abuse , and removal of human beings struggling for a better life. If there’s such a thing as MAGA-core content, that sums it up. www.telegraph.co.uk/us/politics/...
Proposal: Since criminal convictions require proof that convinces a jury beyond a reasonable doubt, officers involved in shootings should be obligated to similarly convince a jury/panel of the justification beyond a reasonable doubt - you know, since they already meted out capital punishment.
No bodycam footage in fatal Madison police shooting, because the department doesn’t require cameras.

/🧵 Again, the right’s attitude towards SA is to warn the potential victims and not the perpetrators.
