Patel is lying about the law as it is traditionally understood, as it is written. He’s telling the truth about law under Trumpism: you only have a right if they deign to acknowledge it; you have no right to do anything they don’t want you to do.
Kash Patel: "You cannot bring a firearm, loaded, with multiple magazines to any sort of protest that you want. It's that simple. You don't have a right to break the law." (Pretti was carrying a gun legally.)

US Bakery Franz changed the recipe and or baking method on its Seattle Baking Waterfront Sourdough. I’m sure most consumers have noticed. Another example of growing companies making decisions at the expense of quality. It’s now a dense bland white bread. Corporate culture is sour; the bread bland.

Impeach, convict, remove, prosecute.
Arrested?
Charged with a crime?
Convicted of a crime?
Call Ed Martin at the US Pardon Office today!
For a 7-figure donation to Trump’s PAC, you too can receive a pardon.
Trump will even tell the press you were “treated unfairly”, even though he doesn’t know who you are.

The House already passed a bill with a three-year extension that would bring down premiums for MILLIONS of Americans. Now it’s up to the Senate.

Congress should pass a law requiring agents to show their faces, identify themselves, & wear their badges. It’s not agent safety we have to worry about these days.
End so-called Kavanaugh stops & admin warrant-based forced entry into homes too. Let’s have a Constitution.

Crazy idea: Don't data mule the President's claim he's getting $1-3B in "oil" from Delcy Rodriguez without also publishing how much the invasion cost.

It’s the end of legal rights. Everything is just plunder, now. You have the “rights” you can force others to permit you, and no more.
Here is the Trump Doctrine, as articulated by Stephen Miller in his truly frightening interview with Jake Tapper this afternoon. It is very much like the doctrine of the dictators we fought and defeated in World War II and of Putin today. It is un-American at its very core.

like 75% of dem messaging right now should be “the party led by epsteins best friend is breaking into pre-k childcare centers so they can record your toddlers and put the videos on internet”
