Fmr FBI Agent Michael Feinberg: "Something that absolutely chilled my blood was when both JD Vance and Stephen Miller told ICE officers and agents, 'You have absolute immunity in what you need to do.' That is the exact opposite of how I was trained."
On December 31, 2020, US Rep. Jamie Raskin announced that his 25-year-old son Tommy, a second-year student at Harvard Law School, had died.
Four days later, Raskin posted a tribute that revealed, after a prolonged battle with depression, Tommy had died by suicide.
In a farewell note, the 25-year-old said, "Please forgive me. My illness won today. Look after each other, the animals, and the global poor. All my love, Tommy."
Tommy was buried on January 5, 2021.
The next day, Raskin was in the Capitol with his daughter and son-in-law during the Capitol attack.
Hours later, he started drafting an article of impeachment against Trump, and six days later, House Speaker Nancy Pelosi named Raskin the lead manager of Trump's second impeachment.
Today, Raskin is still one of the loudest critics of the current president, one of the most progressive leaders in Congress, and one of the strongest people — period.
Our current president bullies him on social media weekly.

Trump left the White House around noon on Friday; he is just now returning, we have been paying for a geriatric drug addict to abuse reporters, attend basketball games and hang out at his shitty NJ golf club for four days in the middle of a war he has no idea how to finish.
