1. Many large media outlets are reporting that Trump "pivoted" his strategy in Minnesota and has "changed course."

This is what the White House WANTS YOU TO BELIEVE

The only problem is it is not true

[. @GregTSargent]

The media narrative that Trump is "pivoting" and "deescalating" on his ICE raids. is wildly overstated. As long as the military occupations and the treatment of US cities as enemy territory continue, there's no pivot. It's that simple. 1/

Ray Dalio just said the quiet part out loud.

"If you depreciate the money, it makes everything look like it's going up."

The Stock Market boom is a lie…

We are witnessing the death of the Dollar, not the growth of the economy.

99% of people have no idea.

Bari laid out her vision to all CBS News employees this morning (leaked to CNN's Brian Stelter immediately): We will no longer tell viewers what happened. We present argument and opinion about what happened. We expect that to offend many of our viewers, and we don't care. 4/

This is quite an exchange with @DavidAFrench about whether we are witnessing the emergence of a "dual state."

@jules_su Watch out! Dems might bring back firebrand Garland again for several years of investigations and general dithering.

The American Way is the rule of law. That means a choice, a battle, a commitment to apply the law. I encourage every American to make this choice. Prepare, as so many have done before, to stand in the arena for your own sake and others.

A man is only defeated when he quits.

[Adam Klasfeld @KlasfeldReports]

Blanche confirms reports that DHS, not FBI, is leading the "investigation."

An "investigation" led by agencies that repeatedly and publicly injected self-interested lies in the public record is a cover story.

The murder of Alex Pretti is seen in at least 5 videos. The incident unfolded over less than a minute. One agent instigated. One shot. Pretti held only a camera. He had a gun, but never touched. it. The shooter saw him get disarmed, then shot him in the back, point blank. 1/

ICE is a paramilitary organization sent to blue states for the purpose of terrorizing Americans as punishment for voting against Trump. Understand that. Texas has 3 million illegals, Minnesota 130,000 at most. When you start from that understanding, the rest falls into place.

In Edina,Minnesota protesters lined up to buy salt and then return it over and over again and there were 70 to 110 in line doing it to make a statement to Target to stop allowing ICE on their property to detain their employees and customers! “Buy salt melt the ICE”!

Tis analysis shapes all my thinking about the future of the US right now, and it explains why Trump and the GOP are behaving the way they do.

There is a near zero chance a Democrat will be sworn in as President in 2029, no matter how people vote.

@DerekCressman @GuntherEagleman None—because they won’t work very well and will be expensive.

@samswey Dems are controlled opposition. What other conclusion makes sense? When confronted with an existential crisis they fumble unintentionally? They know better; they know the stakes. So: it’s intentional, it’s complicit.

Country after country demonstrating they have a better and more accountable system of government, and more informed voters, than the United States of America.

This is what historian Robert Kagan on what it means for the world.

We’re responding to this crisis as if it’s just another crisis. It’s not. This is it. It’s the political crisis of our lifetimes. And how we respond in the US & UK & Europe is critical.

@bryan_johnson What if AGI is not going to happen? What if it’s just a lie pushed by a group of charlatans? What if AI collapses because it’s unprofitable and always will be? Write that essay as well, if you dare.
