    From Lawyers, Guns, & Money today: Trump administration 2026: Fascist dystopia or farcically incompetent clown show? (and yes, that is a trick question)

    Relatedly, left-wing journalist and ardent Trump opponent Laura Jedeed — I am told by the internet that Jedeed is an Arabic word that means “new,” “fresh,” or “innovative” — took her on its face terroristic name and flagrantly seditious Google history to an ICE recruiting event in Dallas last August, to see how far she could get in the recruiting process for what she has repeatedly called in cyberprint “America’s Gestapo.” Hilarity (of a sort) ensued:

    Yes, someone with a ‘foreign’ name, who has been actively reporting on how horrible Trump is, effectively got hired by ICE with no due diligence checks and at least some falsified paperwork on ICE’s part to pretend they had done the checks. (There were references to a physical fitness test that had supposedly already been done, but was actually listed as three days in the future.)

    Jedeed went on to suggest the “only thing ICE is screening for is a desire to work for ICE: a very specific kind of person perfectly suited for the kind of mission creep we are currently seeing.”
