If the OK School Board wants to truly teach its students about critical thinking and analyzing alleged "discrepancies" in elections, I have some recommendations. Starting with the book "The Big Truth" I wrote with Major Garrett of @CBSNews. /1

This is terrifying in America. ICE agents are showing up masked—these abductions must stop. If you’re going to detain someone, show your face, present a warrant, and proper ID. Disappearing people from their families without evidence or accountability isn’t law enforcement—it’s state-sponsored fear.

It’s horrifying that it’s come to this, but as someone with a deep affinity for Europe I feel moved seeing that continent come together to try to save itself in the absence of any meaningful aid from the totalitarian regime that’s in the midst of taking over the United States through an illegal coup

Per Dr Atul Gawande, ex USAID: “All malaria supplies protecting 53 million people, mostly children, including bed nets, diagnostics, preventive drugs, and treatments – terminated.”
There are no words that sufficiently describe this level of cruelty and sadism.

Name one thing more disgusting than this:
The House GOP just passed a $4.5 trillion tax cut for ultra wealthy billionaires. They want to pay for it with hundreds of billions in cuts to Medicare, Medicaid, and SNAP.

This amounts to the most significant data leak in cyber history. Private individuals in the data business now have access to your Social Security information.
This violates privacy laws in every state. Hopefully, state AGs will file suit & pursue criminal charges.
