How in the hell did Laura Loomer find out about an “unpublicized, CLASSIFIED visit” in the first place?

How in the hell did Laura Loomer find out about an “unpublicized, CLASSIFIED visit” in the first place?
Laura Loomer has more power over your government than US Senators.
Here’s what’s going on with Laura Loomer. (1/5)
For years, I’ve conducted listening sessions for members of our Intel Community as a key part of my role on the Intel Committee. ...until conspiracy theorist Laura Loomer got involved and got one of my visits canceled. Who’s really calling the shots in this administration?

A Hoppy brewday yesterday! I brought the hops and Jerry delivered the tunes. Most of the hops went in after the boil, too. #homebrew #brewing #brewday #ipa #neipa #goodpeopledrinkgoodbeer
Remember when the church famously insisted we listen to Galileo and adopt a heliocentric model of the universe and then bad things happened?
Bouie ends the “real or a show?” debate by explaining that it’s both at once. It’s real, a show, and their vision for the future, one that isn’t in place though possibly could be if it keeps going. Don’t fall for the show and take the reality seriously, resisting the vision. All simultaneously.
But both sides seemed so sincere!
Trump/RFK are decapitating our public health system, a pillar of American greatness. So Dem Govs should scour every corner of the law for creative new ways to defend their people from this madness. Dems should polarize this debate to the max. Thoughts on this here: newrepublic.com/article/1998...
today was just practice for the real thing
OK, this one he wrote.
The reason Trump hasn't been seen the last three days is he was busy visiting the Epstein island.
Its pretty wild that the Trump administration effectively gave unprecedented power over the federal government to a drug addict and it was barely even a day long news story. In any other administration it would be an impeachment level scandal, but with Trump its just another day.
This is a poorly framed question. Lots of conservatives would cut off a family member for being LGBT, for example, but that doesn’t clock as a ‘political view’ to them. Also, the narrative that leftists cut off their conservative family members too easily is extremely widespread on the right.
Goodness, if the President has a serious health problem I certainly hope he follows the expert medical advice of his Secretary of Health and Human Services
when you die on the white house toilet you die in real life
Live your life in a way that millions of people don't spend their Saturday mornings endlessly refreshing their feed in hopes that you've died.
“…I am infuriated that the Air Force plans to grant military funeral honors to Ashli Babbitt. She did not die defending the Constitution. She died trying to overturn it.” My latest in @thebulwark.com www.thebulwark.com/p/honoring-a...
Good to see that some folks still adhere to traditional norms.
The real test is whether or not he golfs this weekend. If he doesn't, he died like a dog.
"Nobody has ever died so bigly"
What do you mean by "rumor?"
If these recent orders were doje using an auto-pen, its time to impeach!
guys please please don't jinx this
Should we all prepare very strong letters for the President?
It’s important that everyone act as if the federal government is occupied by a group of Nazi sympathizing, neo-Confederate insurrectionists who are opposed to multiracial democracy and at war with the constitution—because that’s exactly what’s happening.
Just watched The Gilded Age and there is a subplot at one point where the main Robber Baron is worried he might go to prison for corporate negligence that killed people and it was just completely unbelievable as a storyline.
As someone who lives in the DC region, I go to DC a lot and the weather this weekend would make it a fabulous weekend to go out and walk the Mall and patron some local restaurants. Unfortunately, with Trump's gestapo running around the city, I don't feel safe going there and am actively avoiding it.
Watching Beavis and Butthead and laughing my ass off like an idiot.
If this oleaginous haircut thinks local crime rates merit a federal military intervention, then he should be leading the armored column down to his home state of Louisiana, which is one of the worst in the nation.

I’ve seen a lot of fucked up shit in my day, but this might just take the cake.
Between RFK decimating the CDC, normalizing Ashli Babbitt & the umpteenth school shooting... I'm losing the will to post. #ReleaseTheEPSTEIN_Files
"Trump’s biggest reveal is what he shows about those around him; he is a mirror, and not a flattering one, for other people’s souls." @sbg1.bsky.social reviews the "longest, cringiest Trump Cabinet meeting yet." www.newyorker.com/news/letter-...
RFK Jr is driving this country towards an almost certain public health disaster. If Democrats can’t stop it, at the very least they can get it on the record now that they wanted him gone and the GOP wanted him kept in. Underline how they own the disasters to come. It’s Politics 101.
“The Biden administration was totally feckless when it came to holding the Netanyahu government to the standard of American law and the standards that we claim to apply to every other country in the world when it comes to the duty to provide humanitarian assistance.” Senator Chris Van Hollen.

wow. we’d heard rumors to this effect. now it’s more than rumor.
Worse, people who weren't part of the culture war will now boycott them for caving to these weirdos.
Donald Trump wants to be a dictator who ends freedom of speech and competitive elections. He's saying out loud. He's militarily occupying American cities. It would be great if Democrats in Congress started acting like it.
Today I spoke with Kilmar Abrego Garcia. The courts & public outcry forced Trump to return him to MD, but Trump’s cronies keep lying about his case & are engaged in a malicious abuse of power to try to deport him to Uganda. As I told Kilmar, I won’t stop fighting for justice & due process for all:
It's beyond outrageous what Trump has done to Kilmar Abrego Garcia. And it's all because he became the most prominent illustration of how the amoral, sadistic, lawless, mendacious, and authoritarian thugs who today control our federal government seek to destroy our constitutional order. ...
Tim Walz: "I always get in trouble for it and I'll continue to say it, I don't think we do any favors when we don't name it -- these are fascist policies."

Masterful gambit
Words/phrases Democrats should never use: * bipartisan * my Republican friends * real, valid, legitimate, serious, important (to describe issue raised by Republicans) * yea (when voting on Republican bills) * distraction (to describe bad thing Republicans did) * woke (in derogatory sense)
Trump and his Congressional Republicans have cut Medicaid — putting rural hospitals in Illinois at risk of closure. Here in Perry County, a fourth of residents rely on it for their health care coverage. Make no mistake: we're working and listening to find the best path forward.
Mississippi banned abortion and refused to expand Medicaid. This isn't complicated. This is a policy choice. 'Pro-life' politicians would rather babies die than their mothers receive health care. www.waaytv.com/news/nation-...
Exactly, and viewing this administrations actions through this lens is critical to dismantlung its pretextual claims.
This is good, but you need to just be more blunt: the administration isn't just "redefining who belongs in the United States." It is saying that the United States is for white people. It is a white supremacist administration.
what's interesting about this is that it serves the same purpose as trump's rallies — energizing potential supporters and interested people, creating a positive vibe that builds an affective relationship — but is so much more democratic in that it is participatory
You can entirely discount the “crime” narrative. It is bullshit. Domestic law enforcement is not a job for the military. Ordering the US military to do it is illegal, unamerican, and wrong. That’s true even if the White House weren’t lying about crime, which they blatantly are, making things worse.
Trump take egg Trump take rights Trump take Epstein Flights
my only criticism of zohran’s campaign rn is we’ve been working on a campaign scavenger hunt for months and now we look like copycats 😔
Watching The Gilded Age and I have gathered the era required people to devote a lot of effort to making up their mind.
“Papers, please”
I actually agree that Democrats should refrain from using most of these. And they already do! When was the last time a Senator said 'heteronormative'? The bigger problem is that orgs like Third Way are reinforcing this false, right-wing narrative. Dems can't stop doing something they're not doing!
The Tea Party is primarily about taxes and small govt v. The Tea Party is primarily about xenophobia and welfare chauvinism. That was a real debate for a time. As many of the same people cheer state economic intervention and rights-violating immigration crackdowns, it's clear the latter was right.

New in PN: Trump’s targeting of Black communities is not a coincidence "Trump has never even pretended he’s the president for the entire United States. He’s the ruler of an overwhelmingly white sub-nation that seeks to subdue the country’s racially diverse urban centers."
You would think
It is ridiculous that Donald Trump has ceded so much power to Laura Loomer—an ignorant bigot who’s constantly spreading conspiracy theories. by Elon Musk
The concern is he was mean to Trump.
In fact, executing a search warrant on the home and office of a target of the investigation is not the "very early stages" of a complex white collar investigation. Unless you're a total dipshit.
Everyone involved in this from the author of this order to the pilot who flies the plane should be prosecuted by the next administration to send a clear message.
this is little more than a vendetta being pursued by the federal government against a man it unlawfully removed from the country and was forced to bring back

There's plainly a major escalation underway as we speak: newrepublic.com/article/1994...
Let's keep focused on the broader pattern here. I've outlined it in six bullet points below. Viewed all in one place, it's quite ominous: newrepublic.com/article/1994...
Its easily the difference between a grand jury indictment and an actual jury.
Technically the statute specifies “national defense information” (it does not mention classification, though NDI likely would be) but agree that the wording is a little suss
Mississippi's new social media age-verification law has now forced BlueSky to block Mississippi IP addresses. Our Mississippi Free Press team is now urgently having to grapple with what that means for our audience—and for press freedom. My new editorial:
Twitter was never a very good platform for debate or persuasion even before it became a Nazi roachpit. Brief text snippets are terrible for conveying nuance and the public platform means it's hard to find common ground. It's always been a watercooler for people you generally agree with.
Worth noting that the description here itself is deeply suspicious. Disclosure of classified info is a criminal offense in many contexts. There’s no thing as “sensitive nat sec info” and damaging a persons reputation is not a crime.

I feel terrible for the kid, but this woman fucked around and found out. Fuck her and everyone like her.
Someone in comments (and now I can't find the actual comment, sorry) said the best Star Wars trilogy is now Andor, Rogue One and Star Wars Ep 4, and you know what, I'm here for that argument, call it the "Death Star Trilogy"
When I see people on here unknowingly join moral panics around child safety and technology, I think about how the future of this very platform hangs in the balance of this legislation that is designed to force us back onto big tech platforms. It’s not about the kids. It’s about all of us
The way I frequently saw it described is "there aren't different degrees of genocide." Any advice on how to respond to that, because clearly it is worse under Trump than Biden?
The number of people who told me last year that ‘it can’t get any worse for Gaza.’ But it always could get worse, things can always get worse- and they have. We are now witnessing an official, full-blown, US-approved famine in Gaza. Shameful.
He's making me defend people I hate so much and its making me really mad!
People need to understand what's happening today: Trump sent the FBI to investigate one of his most prominent critics, and then threatened to military occupy multiple US cities. He's trying to become a full dictator who makes it illegal to oppose him.
I can’t believe a party led by Chuck Schumer and Hakeem Jeffries is struggling to excite or motivate voters. They’ve tried nothing and they’re all out of ideas!

You do not have to like John Bolton to see this for what it is.
D.C. has more residents than two U.S. states. They pay more per capita in federal taxes than any other state. But they don’t get a serious seat at the table to decide how they’re governed. D.C. statehood now.
