From the article:
“And, indeed, the Daily Caller noted that the man — whoever he was — was standing in front of the banner of the Progressive Labor Party. On its website, the group said, it ‘fights to destroy capitalism and the dictatorship of the capitalist class’ and has called a recent ICE raid in Chicago a ‘pre-dawn fascist assault.’”
McCord is at the nexus of almost all the swamp’s evil schemes. LOTS more investigative attention should be focused on her, and how she came to be installed atop the National Security Division of the DoJ, which she pronounced to be immune from any form of oversight. Who brought her into the DoJ? Who was her political sponsor, etc.? I’m thinking it rhymes with Billary.

Interesting anecdote about the teacher encouraging the use of “that” in expository writing. My journalism instructors quickly marked through “that” as usually being wasted in news writing. Similar worlds using the same skill & language yet different.
I liked freshmen english when I went to college. We had to write a lot of essays. The most important thing that the teacher taught me is that the word “that” is not used often enough. “That” should be used more often.

Sure look like AWS isn't as secure and reliable as they want others to think. But, one observes that the phenomenon, though large, was "local" in the sense that web traffic which is not dependent on "big" went on as usual. For one, I noticed nothing. But then again AWS and I are not "family."
