Continued thread

A snr #MikeWaltz aide used the commercial email service for highly technical conversations w/colleagues at other govt agencies involving sensitive #military positions & powerful #weapons systems relating to an ongoing conflict, acc/to emails reviewed by WaPo. While the #NSC official used his #Gmail account, his interagency colleagues used govt-issued accounts, headers from the email correspondence show.

Don't slip on the I.C.E.

Here's a thought - every time this administration makes "a mistake" in it's zeal to deport someone, one member of Trump's cabinet gets randomly selected and deported to the same Salvadoran prison.

And just to add a cherry of justice on top - they may only return to the United States when the person they've "mistakenly" deported, is returned.

Seems fair, right?
