Schools should do what they do best, homicide investigations, and let the FBI return to doing what it does best, providing security details for Kash Patel’s girlfriend and driving her drunk friends home.
Q: Has Kash Patel told you why it's been so difficult for the FBI to identify who the shooter is?
Trump: Really, you have to ask the school a little bit more about that. Because, you know, this was a school problem.

One way that the reaction to Rob Reiner's murder mirrors Charlie Kirk's is that the best way to eulogize each of them is to quote their words, and in both cases, doing so pisses off conservatives.
Rob Reiner: “Silence in the face of authoritarianism is complicity. Speaking out is a patriotic act. Democracy doesn’t defend itself. It requires participation, vigilance, and courage from ordinary people."

The last political column I was allowed to write in the @washingtonpost.com was a criticism of Obama.
His people took issue with my piece, but we were respectful.
Now he is tweeting in support of me.
This is how free political speech and respect for debate *actually works*.

After someone shot law makers impersonating a cop, every "federal agent" should be "alleged" until proven otherwise
As long as they’re hiding their faces, badges and names we should stop calling them “federal agents.”
Call them masked goons or unidentified thugs or whatever, unless and until they provide proper ID.

I've written speeches to a military audience, for a president who was not simply a USN veteran but also an Annapolis grad.
Rule number one, following G Washington edict: Anything that smacked of partisan politics had to be cut out.
That was then. (Ie, all of US history before this guy)

I am in downtown Los Angeles right now and it is completely surreal to hear that Trump is sending Marines here. We are listening to mariachi music. People have dogs. There are teenagers here. It is utterly and completely peaceful. Please tell your friends.

Video shows two unknown men, without uniforms or identifying insignias, attacking and kidnapping a man from a Nashua, NH courthouse back in February.
During the kidnapping, the assailants, presumed to be ICE agents, knocked an elderly bystander who walks with a cane to the ground.

First he needs to demonstrate that he has ever owned a library card in his entire misbegotten life.
Trump administration lawyers are arguing that the Library of Congress doesn’t belong to Congress — the latest move to erase the traditional lines that separate the branches of government.
It’s called the Library of Congress. But Trump claims it’s his.

“The CTRL-F brigades” is a perfect phrase to capture the reckless stupidity of Hegseth and his DOD minions.
The deleted page reproduced a proclamation from George W. Bush, recognizing July 26, 2008 as the "60th Anniversary of the Integration of the US Armed Forces."
Bush expressed a sentiment now banned by DoD's CTRL-F brigades:
"Our Nation has long drawn strength from the diversity of its citizens"
