The PEOC, the underground White House command bunker used on 9/11, still relies on infrastructure dating back to the 1940s.
After unprecedented threats against the President and senior officials, modernizing America’s most critical security facility is not optional. It’s overdue!
When supervision takes a one-size-fits-none approach, we are all less safe.
Right now, federal probation officers are working within a system that has tripled in size over the last few decades, while resources haven’t kept pace. That means individuals who pose a greater risk to public safety are falling through the cracks.
The Safer Supervision Act fixes that by taking an individualized approach to risks and needs; creating earned pathways to early termination for those who are rehabilitated and have done the work to rebuild their lives; and giving officers the capacity to focus their attention where it matters most.
Our coalition partners @JGKoufos and @GregGlod explain how structural flaws in federal supervision can lead to tragedy — and why these reforms make us all safer. Read it in @DailyCaller.

@GregGlod, Senior Policy Fellow with @AFPhq, gets it: Supervision shouldn’t make it harder for someone to hold down a job.
In a recent appearance on the @jfradioshow, he outlined how supervision conditions make it exceedingly difficult for people to get and keep jobs. This doesn’t work for anyone: not for the people on supervision, not for the employers who are denied quality workers, and not for communities as a whole.
It’s time to STOP criminalizing people after they’ve paid their debt to society, and start taking real steps to build safer, stronger communities for everyone.
The Safer Supervision Act is legislation that would help people trapped in one of America's largest supervision systems get back on track and back to work. Join the movement today. 🔗 https://t.co/WUf0BT3awU
States are beginning to strengthen their bail laws, but more need to follow. The best laws focus on public safety & flight risk, while providing transparency & accountability, like Texas has done under @GregAbbott_TX’s leadership. My latest oped in @realclearpolicy. @A4PublicSafety

Following the news that Kalani Sitake was staying at BYU, @GJMcClintock got Cougs fans together and generously donated to the State College Food Bank @StateColle5073.
Users at @PennStateOn3 have started to do the same for @FoodAtFirst in Ames.
@ChuckDeVore Chuck, I don’t think you’ve ever mentioned to me you were a Captain during the L.A. Riots… this month ;)
Hope you’re doing well, my friend!
We know there is a lot happening on Capitol Hill, but we must always prioritize protecting personal freedoms. 🇺🇸
During the @JudiciaryGOP hearing on FISA, @JamesCz19 explains why vigilance is essential in safeguarding our liberties. 🔍
@adamcarolla My good colleague and friend @ChuckDeVore was a CA Assemblyman when Prop 1A passed and was against this disaster from the start. He'd be a great guest on the Pod! @chrislaxamana

Public defenders stand between ordinary people and the power of Big Government. Louisiana needs to maintain public defender independence. #LouisianaRepublicans who care about the Constitution should vote NO on SB8. If passed, could this law be used by a progressive Dem administration to release violent felons? Who would get blamed?
