.@StephanieKelton is wonderful. Now reading her book “The Deficit Myth”
$1 trillion shows excessive restraint. The package should be several times larger. The "federal debt" is just dollar savings. Get over it.

Two former DHS Secretaries are now on record criticizing what’s happening in Portland.
NEWS: Michael Chertoff, former homeland security secretary under Bush, tells me Trump's law enforcement push is "very problematic" and "very unsettling." Operating on streets is "damaging" DHS and "raises issues under the 10th Amendment," he says. washingtonpost.com/opinions/…

Go Mayors!
The mayors of six large cities have signed a letter to the Trump administration slamming the deployment of federal forces to protests. Kansas City, Missouri, Mayor Quinton Lucas says he signed the letter because "federal involvement is pouring fuel on the fire" at the protests.

This whole thread. Hear hear.
Dear Portland, We are no longer merely living in uncertain times—navigating a global health pandemic and economic crisis—in Portland, we are now living through a violent federal paramilitary occupation.

Chad Wolf has no background in law enforcement and obviously no knowledge of or respect for the US Constitution. No Mr. Wolf, you can’t make “proactive” arrests!! That happens in a police state; it cannot happen here.

Notice, the courthouse had not burned down. What’s causing chaos among the people is the presence of these troops.

The citizens of Portland do not call what is happening there “sustained chaos.” And it is up to the governmental and law-enforcement leaders of Oregon to handle this. The president is not responding to chaos; the president is causing chaos.
