Neil deGrass Tyson: "How sad it must be believing that scientists, historians, scholars, economists, journalists devoted their entire lives to deceiving you, but a reality-TV star proven in court to be a lying felon is your beacon of truth & honesty"
"Newsomβs threat to retaliate in kind is not a divisive attack on good governance. It is, instead, the only hope for democracy. Bipartisanship right now is appeasement. Democrats cannot and should not hide behind neutrality and fairness as MAGA incinerates the remaining tatters of our republic."

So true.
Lallemand said he borrowed his friendβs boat and was fishing near Venise-en-QuΓ©bec, which is roughly 15 kilometres north of the U.S. border at the northern tip of Lake Champlain. He says he has been fishing for decades and is adamant that he was in Canadian waters when the Coast Guard showed up and told him to turn off his engine, to which he complied. The three officers told him he was in U.S. territory. βI said, βNo, Iβm very sorry, Iβm in Canada.β And I said Iβm polite enough to talk to you guys but you cannot arrest me. βYou canβt come across the border and pick me upβ but they did,β he recalled. Lallemand started his engine and said he wanted to talk with the officers by the shore, but the Coast Guard followed and tried to push him into the U.S., which is what caused him to go overboard. βTheyβre tying my boat to their boat. Theyβre not even taking care of me. The third time I went down, coming out with water in my mouth, spitting it out, I said throw me a buoy,β he said. Once on their vessel, he said he was aggressively put in handcuffs. βI never saw somebody so angry,β he said. He was then handed over to U.S. Customs and Border Protection officers, who fingerprinted him, put him in a jail cell with his clothes soaking wet, and gave him a βdirtyβ blanket.
A Quebec fisherman who was fishing 15 kilometers north of the US border was essentially kidnapped by US Border Patrol, who capsized his boat and dragged him to an American prison cell.
In any normal time this'd be quite the international incident, y'know?

To be clear, this now a massive cover up involving the President, the Attorney General, the FBI Director, and the GOP Congress.
You totally did!
Let that sink in for a sec.
It's become clear that this administration is just a protracted war on anybody who's read a book without pictures in it. It's a miracle we're all still getting up and going to work every morning. The psychological drain is the point, and I'm increasingly grateful to the people who are still decent.

Swalwell: Democratic attorneys general in these states have their own law enforcement abilities. And I would recommend, and I have recommended to them use those capabilities.
