"If Trump acts, litigation will follow — but as Trump has learned, the courts move slowly. When Trump wins control of elections in key states — which under the Constitution are supposed to be state-run — it will be too late. He will have won."

For those of you who:

* Feel enraged to watch billionaires destroy important newsrooms

and

* Recall vaguely that Jeff Bezos was once considered a courageous owner who fortified the Washington Post

I recommend this piece by the Post's former fact-checker

Bezos is not trying to save The Washington Post. He’s trying to survive Donald Trump.

When I looked into how the Gaza Health Ministry collected data, it had a good record for accuracy in previous conflicts. Now, after more than two years of dismissing the data, Israel accepts it as accurate.

A lot of Second Amendment advocates about to explain that carrying a gun is an executable offense in America if you oppose the Trump administration. Expect deafening silence from the NRA.
Trump: "This is the gunman’s gun, loaded (with two additional full magazines!), and ready to go – What is that all about? Where are the local Police? Why weren’t they allowed to protect ICE Officers? ... ICE had to protect themselves — Not an easy thing to do!"

Your call whether to watch. What I saw: Victim directs traffic. ICE rushes him & two women, violently knocking a woman down. Victim tries to shield her, *hands in air,* gets blasted with spray. As he tries to help her up, ICE pulls him off. One agent *holsters* a weapon right before another shoots.
UPDATE: @dropsitenews.com has obtained the very graphic video from the lady in the pink coat, which shows ICE executing yet another person in broad daylight:
