In the concentration camp universe, this is what's known as a filtration camp. A government preemptively takes a whole class of people to interrogate and detain extrajudicially in order to inflict duress on them while arbitrarily assessing their (supposed) culpability.
This is a truly horrifying memo. It says that the policy of the US government will now be to proactively seek out and arrest likely tens of thousands of refugees who entered legally under Biden and subject them to detention, where they will be interrogated about their status.

By the way, according to Rep. Minton, not ONE Goddamn Republican Congress member showed up for the deposition of Leslie Wexner today. Not ONE.

Also, Rep. Robert Garcia says Lex Wexner gave Jeffrey Epstein about $1 billion. ONE BILLION DOLLARS.

I’m speculating here, but mid March was almost certainly leaked as a diversion.

I seriously doubt they’re just going to park those AWACS, Growlers, and F-22s in the Middle East for a month, along with two carrier strike groups (one on an extended deployment).

Like I’ve been saying :

He really wanted to strike in January.

But Bibi convinced him to go bigger.

And as others have pointed out, we simply didn’t have the logistics in theater for anything meaningful in January.

We completely obliterated Iran’s nuclear program. It’s gone. Fake news will never admit this.

So anyway, we have to send hundreds of billions of dollars worth of equipment to the Middle East and have a major war to stop Iran from building nuclear weapons.

Summary of current events:

The US had an Iran strike package teed up and ready to launch in mid-late January.

Bibi told Trump his plans weren’t big enough.

Now we’re sending everything with wings to the Middle East.

Today’s deposition made one thing clear: There would be no Epstein Island, no Epstein plane, and no money to traffic girls without the financial assistance of Les Wexner.

We are committed to ending this White House cover up, which protects criminals and billionaire benefactors.

Based on the intensity of the US military build-up taking place in the Middle East, there is a high likelihood that the US is going to war with Iran in the near future and that the conflict will be protracted IF it begins.

Such a conflict could easily escalate both within and beyond the region.

If war with Iran does materialize, I think folks need to understand that this will look vastly different than the 12 day war.

Iran understands this will be a fight for survival. I would expect them to activate all of their proxies and launch everything they’ve got - if they can.

"It’s a trip to watch royalists like Myers twist themselves in knots to justify Kate’s lengthy Mean Girl history too – the coded, racist language, Meghan exposing Kate’s racist lies, Meghan’s work ethic overshadowing Kate’s laziness... so that Kate becomes the heroine of the story."

"One of the Windsors’ biggest go-to moves when they’re scapegoating someone or trying to delegitimize a critic or a rogue royal is pretty simple: just say that the person is crazy. Say that you’re worried about “their mental health.” Call the person “paranoid.”

Holy shit.

A lot of people have suggested this, but I don’t think Lieu would make the allegation unless he had seen some evidence.

Omid Scobie sheds light on an incident where a palace staff member mocked Meghan for expressing her love of hugs. It's truly a relief to see the Sussexes distanced from such negativity.

"Being on Prince Andrew's detail was the one job MET officers didn't want," Andy Hughes of The Crime Agents tells Emily Maitlis and Jon Sopel.

"They had to turn a blind eye to certain behaviour, and as a protection officer, that's not where you want to be"

"...due to the Andrew revelations the public are now demanding more from the Royals, and how they respond is absolutely critical. Only appearing for soft, cosy media appearances may no longer cut it."

“The Royals figure, once you open the door - the genie is out”.

Prince William has avoided all mention of his uncle, Andrew Mountbatten Windsor, in a BBC interview.

So are the Royals concerned addressing the situation signals a point of no return?

"The claim that Harry “aired dirty laundry” skips over a simple timeline. Details of a physical clash between the brothers appeared in print in 2021 through an authorised royal book. Harry described the same incident in his memoir and pushed back on how it had been described."

They hate that Harry is seen as Diana’s true heir. They hate that Meghan is compared to her, another woman who refused to shrink herself.
