  • Along with the printed out search histories were summaries of the items that were viewed.

    Remember how, I think just two days ago, it came out that there was an email referencing a 9-year-old Brazilian girl? And the administration’s response was that it was obviously a typo and it was a 19-year-old girl (nevermind that other emails reference 10-, 11-year-olds)?

    The “summary” of that email was an exact quote of the line with the 9-year-old girl except edited to say 19. I haven’t seen this mentioned by anybody else, but you can see it in a photo from at least one article that was released earlier today about Bondi having Pramila Jayapal’s search history.

    They’re not even honest to themselves.

    There are growing concerns that the DHS effort is more about creating fear and less about successfully stripping citizenship. Even if Americans swept up in investigations aren’t prosecuted or convicted, the process takes a financial and emotional toll; they’d have to hire lawyers and produce documents.

    Margy O’Herron, a senior fellow in the liberty and national security program at the Brennan Center for Justice at New York University Law School, said the mere threat of denaturalization creates real terror.

    “Citizens are afraid that if they do or say something the government doesn’t like — even if those things are lawful and protected by the Constitution — they will be a target,” she said.

    Sounds likely to me.
