1. DHS surges 3,000 officers to Minneapolis without doing anywhere near enough prep first. 2. Hundreds of habeas cases overwhelm local courts. 3. Dozens of DOJ lawyers quit in disgust/anger. 4. The DOJ brings in JAGs to cover. 5. A JAG was just held in contempt and fined $500/day for ICE's failures.

The "rule of law" has always existed to benefit those in power. But it has become a lot more mask off under Trump.
One thing that's important to realize now is that, even in a scenario where Dems sweep to a crushing trifecta in 2028, Republicans will use their control of the courts to attempt to continue, as much as they can, to run executive agencies in exile, with DHS/ICE under Biden as the model
A media actually interested in holding power to account would be all over the new revelations about Kathy Ruemmler. Ruemmler was a personal lawyer for Obama, Clinton, and Susan Rice as well as Obama's WH counsel. This email exchange is Epstein inviting Clinton to meet with Ehud Barak & Steve Bannon.

Reading about the Harriet Tubman's and John Brown's of the world is as close as I've come to a spiritual experience. Just a complete depth of devotion to a justice they would never live to experience. Impossible to truly embrace without being overcome by emotion.
Reading American history will break your heart a thousand times but it will also fill you with such admiration and awe for all the people who were excluded from the protection of America’s founding principles and fought to promote, protect and expand them anyways

MTG is awful in more ways than I can count, but she does happen to be a normal person as compared to all the lawyer-pipeline Ivy grads in Congress. She’s a bigoted crank, but like the kind your aunt is friends with on Facebook.
👀 Marjorie Taylor Greene breaks with Republicans on Obamacare funding, saying she’s not a fan of the law but demands action to prevent a premium hike. “I’m absolutely disgusted that health insurance premiums will DOUBLE if the tax credits expire this year.” She says GOP leaders don’t have a plan.
