Good stuff, Jim. Also, when did each Fed agency get authorized to have its own weaponized enforcement arm; it’s own SWAT, SpecOps, whatever you call those armies they employ. I would really love to see the implementing legislation on that and the authors and supporters of that kind of bill within Congress.
I first learned of the militarization of various gov agencies during the Clinton regime and I learned it first from FR!
I don’t remember learning anything about what/who authorized this transgression. I do remember that skank Diane Sawyer doing a report on the scary patriots that were making the poor BLM guys feel so endangered...

It looks like National Journal is asking the same. Above is their article today on the subject.
