A family friend was telling us about what her husband shared about his experience in Broadview before he was deported back to Mexico. She's been sharing to friends and family because she's just in disbelief & horror what her husband told her. She wasn't able to talk to him until he was in Mexico.

Thus far the single "scoop" I've seen is that after DOJ did a massive service of legal process IN September 2022, he said no more overt acts, just like he did in Hunter Biden.

Stunned by some of the revelations in @carolleonnig.bsky.social and Aaron Davis’s book, “Injustice.” They report that AG Merrick Garland’s team was blindsided by the bombshell testimony of Meadows’s aide Cassidy Hutchinson before the Jan. 6 Committee. open.substack.com/pub/jimacosta/…

A big pro-democracy tent. A united front. Any internal disagreements can be hashed out once the authoritarian emergency is over.

In Chicago, a woman was driving to get coffee when a DHS vehicle fleeing an angry crowd crashed into her car. Armed agents jumped out of the vehicle, yanked her door open, pulled her by the legs out of her car at gunpoint, held her incommunicado for hours, then released her with no charges.

This is actually a Kinsley Gaffe from Johnson. It highlights a core truth about 🇺🇸 politics we don't like to talk about: our institutions fail basic criteria of democracy, & we tolerate nonsense (shutdowns, voting/election shenanigans) & minoritarian rule that no serious democracy still tolerates.
👇🎯 We fail basic criteria of being a democracy (& stop it, a republic, also) & we just shrug & tolerate it because we’ve been taught nice myths about how 🇺🇸 is a paragon of democracy from the time we’re small children. We should be ashamed that it’s 2024 & we still allow this system to exist.

And again, a pattern of putting out statements accusing people of serious Federal crimes and then releasing them hours or days or weeks later with no charges. And no retraction.
