There can be zero doubt that we would see armed, violent resistance from the "come and take it" 2A crowd if a future Democratic POTUS and congress were to turbocharge the ATF and send federal law enforcement and military units into red counties to aggressively enforce gun laws in this manner.

Reuters reached out to everyone that Trump or his subordinates singled out publicly for retribution, and reviewed hundreds of official orders, directives and public records. The result: the most comprehensive accounting yet of his campaign of payback.

Ahead of launching a war on Venezuela, the US would like to announce that no one in Venezuela should help US forces, it'd be stupid to do so, the US will denigrate you and screw you over no matter how much you help, and blame you if even one Venezuelan who also helped the US ever does something bad.

All of you know Trump is the US president who surrendered in Afghanistan, right? Made a deal in 2020 cutting out the Afghan govt, let thousands of Taliban fighters out of jail in exchange for nothing.

I know the "everything in 2020 was Biden's fault, not Trump's" rule, I just don't agree with it.

The 2020 Georgia election case is going to be dismissed in its entirety, with the prosecutor offering less-than-persuasive reasoning. A miscarriage of justice that weakens our democracy.

U.S. Magistrate Judge Gabriel Fuentes, in dismissing Midway Blitz-related charges against Dana Briggs last week, said he was lifting restrictions on relevant video.

Today he made the video available through the clerk's office at no cost to the public. Here's the first.

The pile of lies is stunning.

First, no crimes at 1/6. Second, wrong to investigate. Third, unusual to get toll records of people instigators called. Fourth, wrong to suspend notice while investigation ongoing.

Cherry on top: vote yourself $500k as victim of nothing wrong.

Courage is not the absence of fear; it is acting despite it. And for those who dedicate their lives to service through combat, through exploration, through governance intimidation will never be enough to silence them.

Setting aside for a second the lunacy and authoritarianism surrounding the Trump/Hegseth threat to court martial Mark Kelly, it is also politically moronic. No military court or jury would uphold this, and you only do Kelly a tremendous favor by making him more popular than ever.

Reminder: It’s really not normal for a senior DOJ official to publicly confirm that DOJ is getting ready to indict someone!

(Not to mention that Mizelle no longer works at DOJ — how exactly does he know “of what he speaks”?)
