Everything she wrote is suspect.

Shame on Lizza for sitting on all this.

This is probably related to the two National Guard members shot near the White House. The White House is unlocked down and so is treasury. Not sure about other buildings yet.
There is an active shooter at the treasury department. The building is on lockdown.

How is this not traitorous?
Witkoff has clearly sold out to the Russians. Trump is either an asset or a useful idiot. Rubio is doing a marvelous imitation of Neville Chamberlain and the US can no longer be trusted as an ally.
