These records indicate that someone successfully impersonated the FBI in order to get me swatted. I was already aware this had happened but had to wait nearly a year to get the document that proves it. My reports to the Dallas Police Department about this have gone unanswered.

Last Thanksgiving, two Dallas Police officers knocked on my door, citing a tip from the FBI national threat operations center that I was beating my girlfriend. The incident report confirms this. Today, I obtained a file from the FBI via FOIA that states the FBI has no record of receiving such a tip.

Q: Why wait for Congress to release the Epstein files? Why not just do it now?

TRUMP: It's not the question that I mind. It's your attitude. I think you're a terrible reporter. It's the way you ask these questions. You start off with a man who's highly respected asking him an insubordinate question

Republicans will never fix health insurance. Conservatives think the rich pay too much and the working class too little — and that means only the rich will ever get the care they need. From @ryanlcooper.com: trib.al/LPRiReX
Republicans Will Never Find a Health Care Replacement - The American Prospect
The GOP is too wedded to free markets and scornful of the welfare state to ever make anything in health care work.

According to Israel's public broadcast news, the talks between the Israeli state and Syria on a new armistice agreement have reached a dead end because Israel is insisting only on withdrawing its occupation army out of southern Syria in exchange for recognition of Israel + control of Golan Heights.

This is in essence what the US regional security architecture is all about: vassalize yourself to Israel and the Gulf states, surrender all sovereignty, and you maybe won't get bombed. Or maybe you will anyway.
