11/ I’d suggest that—in a metajournalistic world in which new reporting can’t simply ignore older reporting *or* assume people have read it, nor be taken seriously without acknowledging past reports—this is the *first* point in a structured Trump-Epstein report that new information can be offered.

I’m happy that my friends & former colleagues in the National Park Service and National Archives & Records Administration are finally able to go back to work today! Despite what some would have you believe, federal civil servants are some of the most dedicated & hardworking people you’ll ever meet.

Thread: part of an ongoing project to erase people of color from military history:
1/ The US Government has quietly removed a memorial to Black soldiers who died in World War II from the Netherlands American Cemetery in Margraten, South Limburg. The move follows a complaint from the right-wing Heritage Foundation to the American Battle Monuments Commission. ⬇️

This is a sign that Heritage needs to fold its operations. How abhorrent.

Nancy Mace uses her position to get special treatment at the airport and it backfires when she yells at the TSA agents after they net the wrong car. Mace tried to use a crew entrance at TSA. She swore and yelled at staff who aren’t being paid.

Democrats should be drawing up legislation right now, this very minute, to bar Trump from helping himself to $230 million in taxpayer funds from DOJ. Challenge Republicans to hold a vote on it. Push this so hard in the media that every GOP Senate and House candidate is pressed to comment on it.
