Anne Applebaum: "Donald Trump now genuinely lives in a different reality, one in which neither grammar nor history nor the normal rules of human interaction now affect him. Also, he really is maniacally, unhealthily obsessive about the Nobel Prize." I fully subscribe to this analysis.

In a note to Norwegian Prime Minister Jonas Gahr Støre, President Donald Trump blamed Norway for not awarding him with the Nobel Peace Prize and linked that with his interest in obtaining "complete and total control of Greenland."

Bondi is still angry about the resignation of six prosecutors. “They want to be part of the resistance? Yeah, bring it on,” Bondi said. “They’re not going to be working for Donald Trump and the DOJ any longer.” That’s correct, by resigning, they are no longer working for Trump or the DOJ.

Ken got a list of "Major USBP-Supported Operations," some of which we already new about and were widely announced by DHS ("Operation At Large" and "Operation Tidal Wave" to name two), others which are new to me.
What is a lot more interesting to me is the very small number of apprehensions.

Today is day 25 of the Trump Justice Department refusing to release the full Epstein files, violating the law in the process.
All of the files need to be released immediately so that all of the survivors can get justice and accountability.

FBI agents & DOJ employees,
You're Americans first. Federal employees second.
You do NOT work for, or represent, DICTATOR, PEDOPHILE, SERIAL MURDERER, & felon Donald Trump.
Report the crimes & names of alleged pedophiles in the Epstein Files that Trump wrongfully directed you to redact.

The DOJ and FBI are fully complicit in the cover-up of the Epstein files
It is being done in plain view, with little effort to hide it
But shoddy cover-ups like this in an authoritarian regime aren't meant to be believed
They're meant to send the message that they're going to get away with it

Apropos of nothing… American History Lesson for today: on March 5, 1770, government troops opened fire on protesters in Boston Massachusetts. What soon followed was the stacking of Redcoat bodies. Anyway, Donald Trump is in the #EpsteinFiles and Congress doesn't care about that either.
