  1. Combating #DomesticViolentExtremism Is No Longer a #FEMA Priority

    Documents obtained by WIRED show FEMA plans to direct states and tribes to halt activities intended to combat domestic violent #extremism so as to align with "current administration priorities."

    — Disrupted public service “by causing widespread bomb & other threats that resulted in massive disruptions” to #Springfield’s public services;

  4. Chandra said #SCOTUS’ July ruling granting ex-presidents broad #immunity from #criminal prosecution doesn’t apply in this case because #Trump is currently a private citizen & #JDVance did not amplify the rumors that members of #Springfield’s 15m-member #Haitian community were eating people’s pets in his capacity as a senator.

  6. Trump has returned to the courtroom

  7. #SpecialCounsel #JackSmith & his team have requested a federal judge in Washington, D.C., impose a "narrowly tailored" order restricting #Trump from making public statements that they argue could "present a serious & substantial #danger of #prejudicing" his 2020 federal #ElectionInterference case citing 'disparaging & inflammatory attacks'

  8. It’s part of a dramatic uptick in #violent #threats against #FBI agents that has coincided w/attacks on the FBI & the #DOJ by congressional #Republicans & #Trump, who have accused both agencies of participating in a #conspiracy to subvert #justice amid 2 federal #indictments of Trump.

  9. #TuckerCarlson spoke in Macomb County, a county that flipped to #Trump in 2016, remained w/him in 2020 & likely will play a role in 2024 presidential politics. Carlson advised the crowd to organize & to “speak w/total *honesty*, clarity & #aggression.”

    He also falsely stated that the 2020 presidential election was “rigged,” which drew enthusiastic applause from the crowd.

  10. Agents went to Floyd’s apartment in Rockville, #Maryland, on Feb 23 to serve a #GrandJury #subpoena, acc/to an #affidavit filed in US District Court of MD. The #FBI agents were delivering the #subpoena as part of #JackSmith’s investigation….

  11. #Floyd, 39, aka #WillieLewisFloyd III, is a little-known player who helped run #Trump’s 2020 campaign outreach to #BlackVoters. An online member profile & Q-and-A posted by the University Club of Washington in Nov 2021 describes him as a U.S. #Marine Corps #veteran whose assignments included roles as a machine gunner, combat marksmanship trainer & martial arts instructor.

  12. The #arrest of #HarrisonWilliamPrescottFloyd III, which has not been previously reported, offers new information about the breadth of the federal probe led by #SpecialCounsel #JackSmith….
    
It could also complicate any #bail agreement for #Floyd in #FultonCounty, where DA #FaniWillis has said he & the 18 others #indicted on state-level charges last week — a group that includes Trump — must #surrender by Fri or risk being #arrested.

  13. The main driver of all these efforts & their concurrent expenses is #Trump’s own behavior — his unwillingness to accept the results of an election as every one of his predecessors has done, his refusal to heed his own lawyers’ advice & a grand jury’s order to return govt documents & his lashing out at prosecutors in personal terms.

  29. U.S. officials were worried because #Taranto had made threats during recent livestreams on social media against a public figure. He also had an open warrant on charges related to the #Jan6, 2021 assault on the U.S. Capitol. He wasn't in Obama's neighborhood by mistake, a U.S. official noted.

    The man has been charged with being a fugitive from justice, according to the Metropolitan Police Department.

  30. #Taranto's van was parked close to where he was arrested. There were multiple #weapons & the materials to make some kind of explosive device akin to a Molotov cocktail, but it was not assembled, according to law enforcement officials familiar w/the details. He had said he had explosives, but first responders only found the materials to make them.

  31. They also show that #Twitter’s ldrs were reluctant to take action against #Trump’s a/c 2 days after the #insurrection, even as lawyers inside the co argued that his cont’d praise of the #Capitol #rioters amounted to “glorification of violence,” an offense punishable then by #suspension under Twitter’s #rules.

  32. But the recs reveal a co that fought until the end to give some of #Trump’s most belligerent supporters the benefit of the doubt, even as its internal teams faced an overwhelming volume of tweets #threatening #retribution in line w/Trump’s #lies that the #election had been #stolen.

  33. #Twitter’s current owner, #ElonMusk, commissioned a series of reports intended to reveal how the company had previously sought to squelch #conservative speech, & a #Republican-led cmte in the #House of Reps is working to build the case that the tech giants have been digitally #weaponized against #conservative ideas.

  34. The message, called a #chyron, read in full: “Wannabe dictator speaks at the White House after having his political rival arrested.”

  35. In arguing for his confinement, prosecutors described a panicky, feckless effort by Airman #Teixeira to #CoverUp his actions as #law enforcement closed in, including telling a member of a chat group to “delete all messages,” & instructing a user to stonewall investigators.

    He also tried to #DestroyEvidence, prosecutors said.

  36. This behavior — so disturbing it was #flagged by local #police when he applied for #firearms identification card — is certain to raise new questions about how Airman #Teixeira obtained a #TopSecret security #clearance that gave him access to some of the country’s most sensitive #intelligence reports. (ya think? How about how he was let into the Guard in the first place?)

  37. He engaged in “regular discussions about #violence & #murder” on the same social media platform, #Discord, that he used to post #classified information, the filing said, and he surrounded his bed at his parents’ house with #firearms & #TacticalGear.
