Michael Flynn got paid by the Russian government to do anti-American propaganda, got paid by the Turkish government to conspire to break US laws, and now got paid by the US government for helping cover up a hostile anti-American foreign intelligence operation, ensuring perpetrators got away with it.

🧵🧵🧵 A scandal that hardly anyone knows happened is Trump giving traitor Michael Flynn $1.25 million in your tax money. Flynn, Trump’s 1st national security adviser, pleaded guilty twice to lying to the FBI but was pardoned by Trump. He sued, alleging "weaponization," and DOJ paid him in March. 1/4🧵

OUTRAGEOUS! DHS officers in Portland detained an Indigenous activist wearing the MMIW handprint outside the ICE facility. Suppressing peaceful demonstrators exposes the deep disregard for native lives. Indigenous sovereignty and human rights cannot be silenced.

Can I just say, posting their statement IN KOREAN is such KING behavior. Imagine the Grammys committee waking up, seeing it everywhere, and scrambling for a translation. Yep. I wonder how many seconds it'd take them to pick their jaws up off the floor. (Namjoon using that pic is King of Kings shit)

BTS members on the upcoming Grammys: “We have decided not to submit our work for the Grammys this year. We hope that music can be heard and loved for what it is, rather than being divided by region or language. Thank you always to ARMY and to everyone who continues to be with us.”

Officials said losing out on the ability to do vital prevention work at a perilous time for the region hindered them from being as prepared as they could have been.

As a side project, I listed every congressperson or viable House candidate this cycle that’s part of the left flank that I could think of off the top of my head, & I got a total of 40. 40! That’s massive, & it reflects the growing wave of popularity for New Deal/progressive & socialist policies

Our Founding Fathers Gave Congress Spending Powers, Not Trump Trump Is Cutting Funding For Programs Americans Need Congress voted the cuts down. Trump made them anyway. The Constitution has a word for that: ILLEGAL thehill.com/opinion/cong...

Congress rejected some of Trump’s proposed budget cuts. OMB is making them anyway.

President Trump and the Office of Management and Budget are accused of violating the separation of powers by attempting to unilaterally withhold funds that Congress specifically appropriated.

“David Brouillette has a history of terrifying and violent behavior … They accuse him of attacking women in his life over the years, and one shared a voicemail with the AP from last winter in which he told her that he thought someone should slit her throat.” #AbuseofPowerWatch

📍 𝐌𝐀𝐈𝐍𝐄: An investigation found the ICE agent who fatally shot Johan Sebastián had a documented history of alleged violent behavior and serious mental health struggles. The revelations have prompted lawmakers to demand answers about ICE's vetting, hiring, and training practices. #AbuseOfPowerWatch

WOW. The ex-wife of the ICE officer who shot a 26-year-old Colombian man in Maine has come forward to say that he had mental health issues and was abusive in their relationship. She says after the shooting he called asking her to vouch for him — instead, she went to the press.

Ashley Brouillette told the Portland Press Herald in a phone interview Thursday afternoon that her ex-husband called admitting to the shooting and defending his actions. The Press Herald reviewed a screenshot of incoming calls Ashley Brouillette received from her ex-husband’s current wife’s Facebook account on Wednesday. “He was asking me to lie for him and to cover for his character,” Ashley Brouillette said. “I told him that I was not going to lie for him. And then he tried to say that it was a justified shooting because the guy tried to hit him with his car.” She said she has seen videos of Brouillette on the scene of the shooting and confirmed that was him on scene, telling him: “nowhere in there does it show that this man charged at you with a car.” “In his head it’s justified. He’s unusually calm about it,” she said.Ashley Brouillette told a reporter that she wanted to speak publicly because she had previously reported concerns to his superiors in the military about his mental health. She said he was abusive in their relationship. She said that she’s been inundated with calls, since reports of Brouillette’s involvement began circulating online, threatening her and her family.
