NEW: A neo-nazi who left the Marines last month and a porn actor have been arrested in Idaho on federal weapons charges. Here’s a story with @letsgomathias that lays out what we know so far: huffpost.com/entry/camp-lej…
The feds are really hiding the ball on this one, but we do know it appears they were working to keep their weapons hidden from the government: huffpost.com/entry/camp-lej…
“I have a lot of Fascist friends in the Army,” Collins allegedly wrote. “They say there are a lot of “Red-pilled” Soldiers due to the fact that major bases like Fort Bragg are infested with N****rs.” huffpost.com/entry/camp-lej…
Started tracking this case on Friday after Black Lives Matter co-founder Alicia Garza tweeted that the FBI told her they’d arrested a man in Idaho with ties to white supremacist groups who had her name on a list. huffpost.com/entry/camp-lej…
Didn’t start the week imagining I’d get into detailed discussions with editors about particular sub-genres of violent pornography, but that’s the life of a reporter I guess. huffpost.com/entry/camp-lej…
“Collins’ premature discharge is indicative of the fact that the character of his service was incongruent with Marine Corps’ expectations and standards. Due to the associated administrative processes, further details are not releasable.”

There's a bit of a discrepancy here.

The FOP says this child was “lost” and “wondering around barefoot” in Philly.

But the Inquirer included photos of the pair (since removed) in a story about cops smashing windows, beating a driver, and seizing a kid.

“Was there kids in there? Somebody just hopped out with a baby!” inquirer.com/news/philadelp… Image
It certainly seems like the FOP is serving up a particularly awful piece of propaganda that suggests this child’s parent/guardian left him wondering around the streets, when it seems like he was forcibly ripped from them.

Hoping the @PhillyInquirer can clear this one up.

One of the most political U.S. Attorneys in the county is holding a press conference five days before Election Day to announce indictments related to unrest in Philadelphia, a frequent target of the Trump administration in a critical swing state. Image
McSwain, who has made several appearances on Tucker Carlson’s program, is in an ongoing war of words with Philadelphia’s elected district attorney. Last year, he issued an inflammatory statement slamming the DA after a suspect shot several Philly cops: huffpost.com/entry/larry-kr…
Plenty of politically-appointed U.S. Attorneys use their position as a stepping stone to elected office, but you’d be hard pressed to find someone who has been as obvious about it as Bill McSwain. phillymag.com/news/2020/09/2…

Responding to Trump’s executive order on policing, DOJ has rolled out Standards of Certification for LEOs.

Mandates that LEOs adopt duty to intervene policies, but leaves a lot of flexibility on shooting at vehicles, warning shots, and no-knock warrants.

“...when it is objectively reasonable that a subject is fully in law enforcement’s control, then the force must terminate.” huffpost.com/entry/trump-po…
"The applying agency should maintain policies and procedures that include the duty and obligation to intervene to prevent or stop the known and apparent use of excessive force by another officer when it is objectively reasonable to do so.” huffpost.com/entry/frank-nu…

In case you missed it: our scoop on the arrest of a new-nazi ex-Marine in a case that appears to be linked to threats against one of the co-founders of the Black Lives Matter movement: huffpost.com/entry/camp-lej…
A senior law enforcement official told NBC News that Jordan Duncan, the other former Marine, had ties to extremist groups and a “list” of names: nbcnews.com/news/all/3-acc…
“Authorities kept the affidavit against Duncan under seal, and U.S. District Judge Ronald E. Bush did not allow it to be read during Duncan’s hearing...” huffpost.com/entry/camp-lej…

Sure this despicable conduct by the Trump campaign — taking Joe Biden out of conduct while he’s quoting Pope Francis’ latest encyclical — will summon all the defenders of the Roman Catholic faith who have been so vocal on this website over the past month!
The human being who did this REALLY NEEDS TO READ FRATELLI TUTTI and think long and hard about the path they are taking in life.
“Even as forms of fanaticism, closedmindedness and social and cultural fragmentation proliferate in present-day society, a good politician will take the first step and insist that different voices be heard... May we not be content with being enclosed in one fragment of reality.”

“…She opined to the OIG that perhaps this cable was being used to 'tap' her house. Further investigation by the OIG revealed that the cable was a common cable used by the provider…” washingtonpost.com/blogs/erik-wem…
We laugh, but this stuff works!
