Lawfare does a lot of things of which I am fiercely proud--none more so than working with @Sleutert and the @StraussCenter on this project.

The sheriff of Brooks County Texas gave Leutert the death reports for all migrants who died in his county.
lawfareblog.com/one-county-650…
Today we published the first two of her analyses of those 650 reports. There is much more to come. lawfareblog.com/brush-brooks-c…
Stephanie and Sheriff Martinez will be discussing this work at #TribFest19 with @BobbyChesney. Lawfare will record and podcast that conversation.
This is an incredible piece of work. I urge everyone to spend some quality time with it.

And by the way, if you're not following @Sleutert, you really need to be.

I would also like to point out that when Pompeo wrote me this letter, he cc’d my boss.
John Allen, Brookings President, did not fire me...
But it comes to mind on an evening when three House committees wrote to warn the man about trying to intimidate potential impeachment inquirry witnesses. Remember: this is how he acted over a Christmas letter and a fudge recipe.

Listen to all of this, but if you don’t have the patience for 25 minutes, just start at the 9:12 minute mark and listen to the third song.

Initial thoughts on Isaac Kappy:

- I found his information extremely credible, lining with a whole lot of things I already knew and then some. He spoke for hours and hours in interviews and on his own periscope and it checked out. He also gave a lot of details on 8chan.
- Some people who have experienced ritual abuse in Hollywood did not like him or what he was doing, including some famous names who I'm in personal contact with. I can see their point of view - he wasn't part of the system any more but still shaped by it unfortunately.
He wasn't sued by any of the famous names he accused of being pedos in his initial carpet bombing AFAIK - Seth Green, Clare Grant, Tom Hanks, Steven Spielberg et al - but he was severely censored on social media.

🏆In the astonishingly corrupt world of politics in Washington today, it is important to acknowledge people that do the right thing no matter the consequences. I think we should acknowledge the 58 members of the 115th Congress who did the right thing.

#ImpeachTrump
🥇These members of the 115th Congress didn’t think about the political ramifications, their reputations or the timing; they just voted honorably not to table the measure to impeach a prez who is clearly not abiding by the law or representing our country the way it deserves to be.
🏆Most of these members of the 115th Congress are still in Congress, but some are Governors or in new positions. One member, Louise Slaughter D-NY, sadly died in 2018. More on her later.
