Barr says, if voters are unhappy with the political considerations driving his conduct at the Justice Department, they can always throw the president and any senators who voted to confirm him out of office. Voters will get that chance in seven weeks. https://t.co/BhdPZCGPuO — PolitiTweet.org

“I have been driven many times upon my knees by the overwhelming conviction that I had nowhere else to go,” Abraham Lincoln said during the Civil War. Jim Mattis felt the same way in the summer of 2017, when the risk of war with North Korea was greater than the public realized. — PolitiTweet.org

A stash of M4 carbines was transferred from Fort Belvoir to the D.C. Armory on June 1 and transfers of ammunition from states such as Missouri and Tennessee arrived in subsequent days. About 7,000 rounds of 5.56 mm and 7.62 mm ammunition rounds was transferred to D.C.’s Armory! — PolitiTweet.org

U.S. Park Police Chief Gregory Monahan has testified that protesters were given clear warnings to disperse via a Long Range Acoustic Device. But DeMarco told lawmakers that is impossible because there was no such device on the scene at the time. https://t.co/4jV0gpoGHy — PolitiTweet.org

DeMarco’s account contradicts the administration’s claims that protesters were violent, tear gas was never used and demonstrators were given ample warning to disperse — a legal requirement before police move to clear a crowd. https://t.co/4jV0gpoGHy — PolitiTweet.org

D.C. National Guard Maj. Adam D. DeMarco told lawmakers that defense officials were searching for crowd control technology deemed too unpredictable to use in war zones and had authorized the transfer of about 7,000 rounds of ammunition to the D.C. Armory. https://t.co/4jV0gpoGHy — PolitiTweet.org

Hours before officials forcibly cleared protesters from Lafayette Square in early June, a whistleblower says feds began to stockpile ammunition and seek devices that could emit deafening sounds and make anyone within range feel like their skin is on fire. https://t.co/4jV0gpoGHy — PolitiTweet.org
