“The Intern in Charge”: Meet the 22-Year-Old Trump’s Team Picked to Lead Terrorism Prevention One year out of college and with no apparent national security expertise, Thomas Fugate is the Department of Homeland Security official tasked with overseeing the government’s main hub for combating v...

Before landing at DHS, 22-year-old Fugate worked on the Trump campaign and interned at The Heritage Foundation.

According to his LinkedIn, the bulk of his leadership experience comes from having served as secretary general of a Model UN club.

In a dramatic incident captured on video, U.S. Department of Homeland Security police Wednesday handcuffed one of Rep. Jerry Nadler aides in the congressmember's Manhattan office, which is in the same federal office building as an immigration courthouse. In the video, which was shared with Gothamist and filmed by a person who was monitoring activity in immigration court, DHS officers entered Nadler’s district office and accused staff members of “harboring rioters.” A Nadler staffer is seen crying and being handcuffed. Another officer is at a door trying to enter a private area of the office while a staffer asks for a warrant. DHS later said in a statement that “one individual” — the woman seen being handcuffed — had blocked police from performing a security check they intended to do based on information there were protesters in the lawmaker’s office. Later that day, protesters gathered outside of the federal building, demonstrating against U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement.

Department of Homeland Security officers invading a congressman's offices and arresting a staffer who tried to stop them is very, very bad. gothamist.com/news/homelan...

NEW: As the White House redirects counterterrorism personnel and funds toward mass deportations, a state-level scramble is on to preserve efforts once supported by Washington.

The result is a patchwork approach that leaves many areas uncovered.

On the Campaign Trail, Elon Musk Juggled Drugs and Family Drama

Interesting piece on the Nazi junkie, strung out on a huge array of drugs seemingly at all times, who effectively destroyed huge sectors of the US government and caused the deaths of hundreds of thousands of people so far. www.nytimes.com/2025/05/30/u...

State Department set to launch ‘Office of Remigration’ The concept of remigration has explicitly neo-Nazi roots and has been popularized in Europe.

SCOOP: The State Department's new reorganization plan includes the opening of an "Office for Remigration," a term popularized by far right extremists and neo-Nazis in Europe. The office will coordinate directly with DHS "to advance the President’s immigration agenda."

My report:

This and the realignment of DRL to "western values"

NPR published a story 5 days ago about three high ranking Trump officials with clear ties to Hitler-admiring antisemites and it barely made a ripple. These are the kind of stories that used to end political careers. Now the subjects of the stories just hold up a middle finger and keep plowing ahead.

Project 2025 Supporters Promote White Nationalist Great Replacement Theorists Individuals at several of the Project 2025-affiliated organizations, a 900+-page manifesto detailing plans to strip American citizens of their civil rights and radically restructure the U.S. governmen...

Project 2025 isn’t just a radical blueprint to dismantle democracy—it’s now aligning with white nationalist Great Replacement theorists. Heritage fellows are citing former neo-Nazis. Conferences are celebrating the ideology that inspired deadly attacks from Buffalo to Christchurch.

Multiple Trump White House officials have ties to antisemitic extremists NPR has identified three Trump administration officials with close ties to antisemitic extremists, including a prominent Holocaust denier.

I talked to NPR about seeing DHS White House liaison Paul Ingrassia at a Nick Fuentes rally last year.

Patriot Front is hidden hand behind dozen active clubs The white nationalist hate group is trying to boost recruitment by secretly controlling a large swath of the active clubs network.

The WHAT

The sword of doge-cles
Is hanging over my head
And I've got the feeling
Rubio's gonna cut the thread

Oh woe is me
No more CVE
Oh can't you see
This doesn't make America safer

A Commander’s Case for Women, Peace, and Security The program makes the military more effective. The secretary of defense thinks it’s “woke.”

"At first, our intelligence analysts didn’t fully understand the dynamics. We couldn’t figure out why women were now involved in this al Qaeda network of death." Women helped answer it. Which is to say, involving women saved American and Iraqi lives.

The State Department is changing its mind about what it calls human rights The agency's annual human rights reports are being purged of references to prison conditions, political corruption and other abuses.

In 2017, Senator Rubio blasted Rex Tillerson for not presenting the State Department human rights reports with a press conference.
What Secretary Rubio is doing is far worse, systematically editing out descriptions of human rights abuses and corruption.

Fired Govt Workers Are Pissed Off and Running for Office Could an army of dismissed feds deliver wins for Democrats up and down the ballot?

"There’s been so much interest from former federal employees that groups like Run for Something and Emerge have hosted information sessions on Zoom specifically to help former federal employees navigate being first-time candidates."

Public Statement on Supporting Science for the Benefit of All Citizens TO THE AMERICAN PEOPLE We all rely on science. Science gave us the smartphones in our pockets, the navigation systems in our cars, and life-saving medical care. We count on engineers when we drive acr...

Open letter from nearly 2000 NAS member scientists: "We see real danger in this moment. We hold diverse political beliefs, but we are united (...) in wanting to protect independent scientific inquiry. We are sending this SOS to sound a warning: the nation’s scientific enterprise is being decimated."

In Trump’s War on Federal Workers, Black Families Pay the Price Mass layoffs and the adjoining attack on DEI threaten to turn back some of the gains of a growing Black middle class.

"Many of us grew up watching our parents and grandparents build careers in federal service, whether it was in the U.S. Postal Service, where Black employees make up 27% of the workforce, or in other federal agencies."

Racism is also fueling the fervent federal union-busting we’re seeing.

This isn't anti-DEI - it's retelling history as a story with only white men in it. The tale of the Navajo Code Talkers is essential to understanding the Allies' victory in WWII. Removing it because the people involved were non-white is segregationism.

It's interesting they lead with "non ideological" and then immediately quote Kriner saying it's the "next step in far right terrorism". Calling a spade a spade has been a huge sticking point on this.
