It also asked for a search for 32 right-wing buzzwords related to #abortion, #immigration, #ElectionDenial, & #Jan6, suggesting a determined effort to find #State Dept staff who even just discussed such matters.
Multiple sources say State Dept employees raised alarms internally about the records requests.

Trump's recent executive order to "unleash" police in America is actually a paint-by-numbers recipe for an authoritarian police state operating under a perpetual condition of martial law; and given the Swine Emperor's history, that should alarm Americans more than their media is letting on.
Nina-Bytes: A Road to Martial Law
https://www.ninaillingworth.com/2025/05/02/nina-bytes-a-road-to-martial-law/
"Even if we didn’t know Trump is an unhinged fascist with a penchant for punitive violence, the combination of material state support for police criminality, arming up and training to occupy American communities, and the unification of military, police, and national security assets, including personnel apparently, into a single ad-hoc domestic security force would all be ominous signs of an impending dictatorship under martial law. If I’m being honest I don’t think the author of this piece is being alarmist enough given the scope of this executive order."

#Trump nominee #EdMartin’s ties to #antisemitic rioter in question
Martin, Trump's nom for #USattorney for the #DC, is trying to distance himself from a #convicted #Jan6 Capitol rioter known for #racist & antisemitic rhetoric. Federal prosecutors have described Timothy Hale-Cusanelli as a "#Nazi sympathizer."

#FBI attys say #DOJ can’t be trusted in fight over #Jan6 list
The taste for retribution by Trump WH is undeniable & the Justice Department cannot be trusted not to give names of FBI agents who worked JAN6 cases to Trump so he can retaliate against them.

Question for #Trump: How does that apply to the law enforcement officers attacked on #Jan6 & your pardoning the perpetrators?

Defending Jan. 6 Rioters, Investigating Democrats: How Ed Martin Is Weaponizing the DOJ for Trump
—
Since becoming interim U.S. attorney, Ed Martin has launched controversial investigations, rushed to defend Elon Musk’s DOGE and vowed to change how his office prosecutes crime in D.C. These are some of his most contentious actions.

Probably the convicted felon Trump will pardon this motherfucker Santos, like he did with all the #jan6 criminals and his GOP-cronies.
And like this grifter earlier this week: Trump pardoned Michele Fiore, a former candidate for governor of Nevada after she was convicted of raising money for a memorial to slain police officers but spending the donations on plastic surgery, credit card payments and her daughter’s wedding.

#Police officers who joined #Jan6 rally ask #SupremeCourt for #anonymity
Four officers sued to prevent the disclosure of Seattle’s investigation into their attendance at the pro-Trump ‘Stop the Steal’ rally on Jan. 6, 2021.
#Trump #seattle #stopthesteal #j6 #maga #scotus
Four Seattle #police officers who attended #Trump's "Stop the Steal" rally on #Jan6, 2021, which preceded the attack on the United States Capitol that day, have petitioned the #SCOTUS to keep their names out of public records related to the #insurrection.

#SCOTUS this week:
The debate over #Religious #freedom & #ParentalRights is back at the #SupremeCourt.
Justices will consider whether #PublicSchools can stop parents removing students from lessons using #LGBTQ+ themed #books. The issue has divided a #Maryland community.
Justices will weigh the future of #free #PreventiveCare today.
And #police officers who joined the rally before the #Jan6, 2021, #insurrection asked justices for anonymity.
Some Jan. 6 rioters pardoned by Trump are now embraced as heroes and candidates for office
“It is, I think, a mainstreaming, a growing acceptance on the right of political violence, as long as it’s done in the service of Trump and his ongoing election lie,” Dallek said.
While it’s likely that clerks or cleaners working for Kroeger are likely to have no rights to privacy if they engage in political or union protest, these Seattle Police officers don’t seem to want those of us who pay their salaries to know they participated in the violent insurrection at the US Capitol.

'I'm in ruins!': Trump ditched his most loyal ally, now he's broke and desperate

LOL! Yeah, I have no sympathy for you. I hope you lose everything and end up in the gutter... but I'm sure the welfare system will help you --- whoops - your pal donnie is going to kill that too.
