"Trump has not implemented a meaningful change in policy, nor even really a meaningful change in tone. He and his goons are still committed to ethnic cleansing and the violent subjugation of partisan opponents."

"Other than a personnel shuffle, nothing has substantively changed. Five days after a second American was gunned down in the street by agents of the federal government, heads should be rolling. People should be held to account and fired. Agents should have been marched out of the city. The Department of Justice & the FBI should have opened an investigation.
Instead, the president is still playing the bully."
~ Dan Rather
"If you were wondering if that 'draw down' is at all real, know that literally as Homan’s press conference was occurring, ICE agents abducted one person in Minneapolis from their vehicle, and, in trying to abduct an additional person, hit their car. Much kinder and gentler and definitely lowering the temperature, right?"

"(As this newsletter was being finalized Thursday evening, Trump did a gaggle where he admitted there is no draw down in Minnesota, telling reporters he’s not pulling back and 'nothing is going to change.')"
