I fought wildfires as part of a fed BLM crew for several seasons. No masks, no protection other than a shitty bandana over our faces. After every rotation we were coughing up black shit and it was considered just normal.

It is incredible how little care or funding wildland firefighters get.
“It would be unthinkable for urban firefighters… to enter a burning building without wearing a mask. But across the country, tens of thousands of people who fight wildfires spend weeks working in toxic smoke and ash wearing only a cloth bandanna, or nothing at all.”

There’s no longer any pretense this has anything to do with crime (there are cities or parts of cities in SC and Ohio that have higher crime rates than DC — send the troops there!). This is about establishing a precedent for Trump seizing control of the nation’s capital when he wants to.

Some good news. Judge calls out that senior FTC staffers (who double as shitposters) had tweeted about how much they hated Media Matters, which undermined the claims that this was just an ordinary investigation, and not punishment for speech.

As I stated at the time the Court's immunity decision came out, not only would it not prevent a future Trump from going after previous presidents, it gives him immunity if he orders his DOJ and intel officials to fabricate evidence to support his accusations! Which...is exactly what they are doing.
Remember when the Supreme Court’s rationale for “absolute immunity” was that it would prevent politically motivated investigations against former political opponents?
REPORTER: Gabbard has submitted a criminal referral. Who should the DOJ target?

TRUMP: It would be President Obama. And Biden was there with him ... the leader of the gang was Obama. Barack Hussein Obama. He's guilty. This is treason.
