"Tonight #FoxNews allowed its host #TuckerCarlson, who has not served a day in uniform, whether military or law enforcement, to criticize the heroism and service of African-American U.S. Capitol Police Officer #HarryDunn.

3/USAGM was fed agency torn apart by Trump loyalists incl #MichaelPack, #MoraNamdar, #EmilyNewman & others. They were to "drain the swamp". They WERE the swamp. In 30 years practicing law in DC, I have never seen such arrogance & vitriolic from so many.
2/In July 2017, McConnell was detailed by Organized Crime and Drug Enforcement Task Forces (OCDETF) Executive Office to work at Joint Interagency Task Force South (JIATFS) at request of JIATFS leadership.
3/Primary reasons for detailing McConnell were to inject agency-agnostic prosecutor perspective into fed law enforcement agency interactions at JIATFS to try & smooth out unproductive competitive interagency law enforcement behaviors ...
