If true, this would be one of the least surprising turns of events in the history of events turning.
I have spoken with several senior FBI counterintelligence officers who believe that there is a reasonably strong prospect that Tulsi Gabbard is a foreign intelligence asset.
As you read WSJ's piece on the super-secret abuse complaint about Tulsi Gabbard, remember that she tried unsuccessfully to wring counterintelligence function away from FBI last year.

My wife's wonderful mother, Angie, was in an assisted-living site in Florida, between ages 98 and 102. ( fallows.substack.com/p/angela-vol... )
The site had mainly wonderful staff. Many Haitian. Also Jamaican, Nigerian, Ukrainian, many places in Latin Am, Africa, SE Asia. She loved them (mostly).

Yesterday, five-year-old Liam and his dad Adrian were released from Dilley detention center. I picked them up last night and escorted them back to Minnesota this morning.
Liam is now home. With his hat and his backpack.

A judge denied Minnesota's ambitious request — a day after Don Lemon and Georgia Fort were arrested. But, in Texas, a judge orders 5-year-old Liam Ramos and his dad released.

Whoa. Dems just flipped a Texas state senate seat in a district that Trump carried by 17 points. Not only that, but the win was decisive, making this an enormous swing. Plus, Republicans went all in to try to save the seat, to no avail.

My piece on our break with our closest neighbor and ally:
"There’s no talk about a mutually beneficial relationship; Canada, Trump says, is not even a vassal state. Its very existence is dependent on the US, which means it is dependent on him personally. 'Canada lives because of the US,' he says, like a domestic abuser sneering." — @paulwaldman.bsky.social
Trump blames Canada
And tears our closest international relationship apart.

I would like Democrats to win, not to perform self-flagellation to appease a tiny number of people online who will always lie about them anyway.
Democrats may think they are softening the message when they say things like "Abolish Trump's ICE" but this is a mistake.
The qualifier of "Trump's" shows a deflection of Dem responsibility for perpetuating this agency and funding it.

Suffragettes were supported by white supremacist in order to deny votes to Black peoplle. Many autocrats were first elected in real elections. Voting does not cause progressive change, it it caused by our voices & actions. Elected officials are reactionary to our power, not when we give it away.

If your response to this is some variation on "Just abolish ICE" then you are a child and you need to stop talking.
Dems coalescing around 5 restrictions on ICE, I'm told:
DHS required to cooperate with state probes (big)
CBP stays at border
warrants for arrests
IDs, bodycams
ICE out of churches, schools
"That package unites a lot of Dems," Sen Chris Murphy tells me on the pod:

2) “restrain, reform and restrict ICE.” <-- People are seeing this and assuming it's some sort of set in stone slogan forever. No, dude, it's the slogan for this particular fight. You're not going to abolish ICE with this funding bill. Sorry, if you think that's on the menu you're just stupid.
