It is a basic principle of American democracy that the government can’t selectively target individuals simply because of their political beliefs or what they say. But that’s exactly what the Trump Administration is doing to Congresswoman Ilhan Omar of Minnesota. To understand why this is so appalling, it’s important to know the facts. Congresswoman Omar came to this country with her father when she was 12 years old. Five years later, her father became a naturalized citizen. If Ilhan had been 18 at the time, she would have had to apply for citizenship separately. But because she was 17, she became a naturalized citizen automatically. Congresswoman Omar went on to graduate from college, work as a community organizer, become the first Somali-American legislator elected to public office in the U.S., and win a seat in Congress. There, she has been one of the Trump Administration’s fiercest critics, which has led the president to repeatedly single her out as someone who he believes does not belong in this country. Now the Administration is actively trying to deport Congresswoman Omar, seemingly based solely on the unsubstantiated theory that she was actually 18 when her father was naturalized, and therefore is not a citizen. Federal agents have raided her home, confiscated personal records, and seized her phone — all to try and uncover a nonexistent smoking gun from 20 years ago that will somehow make their case. Think about that. The full weight of the federal government is being brought down on a law-abiding elected official because she has dared to criticize the president. And it’s not the first time this has happened. Under President Trump, the Justice Department has repeatedly gone after those he considers his political enemies — from the Attorney General of New York, to the former head of the FBI, to members of the Federal Reserve. In those cases, the prosecutions either stalled or were dismissed for having no basis in law, and the same is likely to happen in this case. But not before Congresswoman Omar’s life has been turned upside down, her legal bills have piled up, and she’s been forced to spend time fighting unsubstantiated charges instead of serving the people of Minnesota. The fact that any president, or any administration, is willing to engage in such transparent efforts to intimidate someone should outrage all Americans, regardless of how they feel about Congresswoman Omar’s political views. Because if this becomes the new normal, there’s no reason to believe it will stop with her — or that future presidents, in either party, won’t do the same.

Leah, I chose not to release your episode because I personally had serious concerns about the truthfulness of your statements. I take what I put out on my platform seriously for myself and for my listeners. For the sake of transparency, here's the full interview so everyone can watch and draw their own conclusions. As for my investments, I've intentionally made them public, as you see on my LinkedIn. I invest in Shield AI and Anduril for no other reason than I believe in their ability to develop technology that equips and protects the American warfighter. That's something deeply personal to me that I believe in. @leahfiles

OMG Letters from the USCIS and DHS appear to verify that citizenship records for Ilhan Omar's father DO NOT EXIST. No record of his naturalization exists. Ilhan Omar claimed citizenship through her father. If no record exists, how can she be a U.S. citizen?

I don’t see many talking about the 4 Roadster versions. Franz very carefully described: 1. Roadster. 2. Performance Roadster. 3. Thrust Roadster. 4. Rocket Roadster. Looks like there will be a base model the referral winners will get. The $50k deposit goes toward the performance version with the suction system, and the $250k founders is the thrust version with the rear facing cold gas rockets. Could the standard model come in at less than $100k?

A casino got hacked through a fish tank. It has sensors. automated feeding, temperature control, remote monitoring. connected to the internet. isolated on its own VPN. segregated from everything else. Hackers still found it anyway, compromised it, pivoted to the main network. started pulling data. nobody monitors fish tank outbound traffic, why would they it's a fish tank. Darktrace caught it, anomalous transfers to an external destination nobody in the building had ever talked to. the casino had done everything right. separate network. isolated device. proper segmentation. Still didn't matter. The fish tank was still online, still running software, still had an attack surface. Every device you connect is a door you didn't know you opened.

I am getting inundated with people who moved out of Washington state telling me they are still getting ballots in other states. I always ask if they told elections they moved, and the majority say "yes." Why are they still on the voter rolls?
