Space Camp was my first PME job.

My guess is a pretty small intake every year. 16,000 total members (target), high % of that officers, and even for enlisted likely to aim for high % long-term, not 2 or 4 years. Might not be worth a truly independent pipeline for such small cohorts

Yes, through USAF BMT but possibly with some space force specific elements -- no real details yet beyond that. See pp 14-15

Bill Barr has said, 1) Since Presidents can't be indicted they should not be investigated 2) He personally gets to approve any investigation into presidential campaign finance crime. 1+2 = immunity for cheating on an election.

There is an inherent conflict of interest in an Attorney General, a political appointee, making the decision on whether a predicated case on the person who appointed him should be opened. This is EXACTLY why we have Special Counsel regulations 1/

Must-read thread on how NSC is evolving under O'Brien -- small, ad-hoc, secretive, action-oriented

This ensures that if Trump engages in wrongdoing again, the FBI can't investigate it without Barr's approval. Given Trump's treatment of the whistleblower, we might not find out the next time Trump abuses his power.

Disturbing but unsurprising # of GOP Senators saying, "well, one Fed governor can't do that much" to justify green-lighting Trump's extreme/wacky nominee. The central bank is not something you play around with, and Trump may well nominate her for Chair

Trump calls the "dirty cops" in the FBI "scum" and "sleazebags"--then points to Barr and says "we'll see what happens," implying future prosecution.

"The top scum." This is like Captain Queeg breaking down on the stand except it goes on for an hour and everybody claps and carries him around the room and makes him Admiral.

This is classic authoritarian stuff whether America wants to admit it or not. Exalt the loyalists. Punish any critics. Put their heads on a stick. Make all see what happens when you go against the leader. Promise retribution.

Welcome to Trump 2.0, folks. Meanwhile, Treasury has refused for a year to follow the black letter law which requires turning Trump's tax returns over to Congress.

I'm taking a stack of documents from my desk to the recycle bin and the shredder, just now, in case Gaetz or anyone else wants to alert the FBI to come pick me up

This article is something. Iowa voter on why she voted for Obama and Trump? “Just to shake up Washington, to be honest. We’ve been in a rut for so long." I cannot begin to express how much I *don't* respect that choice.

House Democrats have passed tons of bills. But conservative media, which denies the legitimacy of Dem power, has worked the "mainstream" media into treating Mitch's obstruction as a default, such that D legislation merits no acknowledgement unless it's "bipartisan" on R terms.

SCOOP: Trump's South Africa ambassador, a successful handbag designer, forced out her top career diplomat at the embassy as she tried to elevate her son to a senior embassy post, officials tell me. Part of a trend of Trump envoys pushing out their #2's
