You need to meet him ‘in person’. Can confirm.

Convinced myself to read it. Then felt shitty for doing so. But this makes it all worth while.

It’s disqualifying. Like 900th on the list. Every day he manages to do something either illegal or just sleazy. (I’d love to see this on the front page of the NYT. It surely would have made it were this any *other administration.)

One of the people said Feds United is subcontracting for SOSi, a big gov contractor that just got a contract for these sorts of services. “I do not comment on current projects where I am not the prime vendor,” Brown told me www.404media.co/contractor-p...
One of the people briefed on the Virginia and DC pilot said Feds United was subcontracting under SOS International LLC, or SOSi, which is a large government contractor. In October the Department of Homeland Security (DHS) signed a $7 million contract with SOSi for skip tracing services, The Lever reported. “I do not comment on current projects where I am not the prime vendor,” Brown from Feds United told 404 Media. SOSi did not respond to a request for comment. When asked specifically if SOSi would be able to comment on the pilot, Brown said “after my years of federal training, my response is ‘I cannot confirm nor deny who my client is.’”

The post doesn't mention ICE, but two people briefed on the plans told me the job is to verify information for ICE. Would be split into teams, given vehicles, addresses. $300 for each verified address up to $30,000. www.404media.co/contractor-p...
Brown said that ICE does not have good addresses for some of its targets, one person briefed on the plans recalled. Feds United would give recruited individuals a list of addresses based on things like utility bills, the person said. Feds United would split the people into teams to perform the surveillance, and after verifying the target lived at the address each person on the team would be paid $300, they added. This would go up to a maximum of $30,000, they said. “Do not talk to the neighbors,” the person said, recalling the plans. “This was strictly supposed to be observe and report,” referring to a tactic where they are not supposed to directly interact with anyone.

If you haven't yet, definitely read @chrisgeidner.bsky.social's post on EB White and fascism. As I said, I think this name will totally backfire. But still read Chris' post.

Gregory Bovino is exactly who E.B. White — author of 'Charlotte's Web' — warned us about
DHS named its North Carolina anti-immigrant effort "Operation Charlotte's Web." In 1940, White wrote of the "smell" that "rises" from those who "adjust to fascism" over freedom.

Also… Trump’s “piggy” insult to the reporter was tweeted out Friday night by a CBS (former Bloomberg) reporter … but it seems to have gone largely under the radar til the People story.

Highlights from NEWSY gaggle on AF1 on our flight to Florida on Friday night: Trump told us on EPSTEIN: -"I know nothing about that," he said when asked what Epstein meant when he said Trump knew about the girls. "Jeffrey Epstein and I had a very bad relationship for many years." -"Quiet, quiet, piggy," he told a Bloomberg reporter who asked why, if there's nothing incriminating in the files, he's acting like there is. -Asked if he's ruled out a pardon for Ghislaine Maxwell, the convicted sex offender connected to Epstein, "I haven't even thought about it," he said. "I don't rule it in or out. I don't even think about it." -"They can have whatever they want," he said when asked about MTG's interview with CBS saying release all the files. "I was never on his island. Bill Clinton went there supposedly 28 times." -If they had anything, they would've used it before the election, he said. I asked why, then, his team encouraged Nancy Mace and Lauren Boebert to not pursue this. "Because it's bad to talk about it" when Rs should talk about "how well we've done." -He said he heard Pam Bondi picked U.S. Attorney Jay Clayton, "a real legal talent," to look into ties between Epstein and prominent Dems.
