    From HCR's letter of 1/25/26

    "Trump spent last night at the White House at a black-tie private screening of a documentary about First Lady Melania Trump.  Amazon paid $40 million for the rights to the film just weeks after executive chair Jeff Bezos dined with Trump at Mar-a-Lago following the former president’s reelection and is spending another $35 million to promote the film."

    Where do you suppose that money came from?  Hint: how many people do you know- especially people who rant and rave about the current admin.- buy good through Amazon?  That's more than a bit ironic, I'd say.  I know and love a few people who do that.  But I don't get it.  
    I really
    just
    don't
    get it.

    What was that about turning down the heat and the rhetoric, again?

    Minneapolis Live Updates: Ilhan Omar Is Attacked During Town Hall on Immigration Crackdown

    A man sprayed the Democratic representative, a frequent target of President Trump’s, with a strong-smelling substance before being removed by security. Mr. Trump suggested he might look to “de-escalate” the operations in Minneapolis.

    A man attacked Representative Ilhan Omar during a town hall in Minneapolis on Tuesday evening, hours after President Trump suggested that he might “de-escalate” the aggressive immigration crackdown in Minnesota that has rattled the community and left two protesters dead.

    The man sprayed Ms. Omar with a strong-smelling liquid from a syringe before being tackled by security. He was arrested and booked into jail on suspicion of assault, said Trevor Folke, a spokesman for the Minneapolis police.

    Ms. Omar, a Democrat who represents part of Minneapolis and has been a frequent target of Mr. Trump, was visibly shaken by the attack. But she continued speaking after a brief pause. As she was escorted out of the town hall by a pair of security guards, she told reporters, “I’ve survived war, and I’m definitely going to survive intimidation and whatever these people think they can throw at me, because I’m built that way.”

    Just before the man attacked, Ms. Omar had called for abolishing U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement and impeaching the homeland security secretary, Kristi Noem, who has come under fire for making false statements about the killing of Alex Pretti by federal agents in Minneapolis.

    Earlier, Mr. Trump promised a “very honorable and honest investigation” into Mr. Pretti’s killing despite federal agencies’ unwillingness to cooperate with state investigators and indications in court records that they were conducting only a minimal inquiry.

    Though Mr. Trump has taken less of a hard line about the killing than Ms. Noem and some other members of his administration, on Tuesday he again cast blame on Mr. Pretti for carrying a legally permitted weapon, which had been seized from him by federal agents who restrained him before he was fatally shot. “You can’t walk in with guns,” Mr. Trump told reporters, while also calling Mr. Pretti’s death “a very unfortunate incident.”

    In the three days after Mr. Pretti’s death, Mr. Trump has had to reckon with a broad backlash over the encounter and his administration’s immediate moves to blame the victim, including by labeling him a “domestic terrorist” and “an assassin.” On Tuesday, Customs and Border Protection officials said two agents fired the shots: a Border Patrol agent and a C.B.P. officer.

    Mr. Trump promised he was “watching over” the investigation into Mr. Pretti’s death but did not offer details. He also noted that he had dispatched his border czar, Tom Homan, to take over the immigration crackdown in Minneapolis.

    State officials have asked a judge to compel federal cooperation with their investigation into Mr. Pretti’s death. And nine progressive prosecutors from around the country announced the start of a coalition to assist in prosecuting federal law enforcement officersaccused of wrongdoing.

    sounds about right.

    wait until she takes a photo of the event and starts slapping it on shirts, coins, flags, and any other cheap ass merch she can think of to grift her supporters over. that will be the tell.
