Kash Patel wants to criminally charge groups who received EPA grants for climate change projects. You know, like those greedy bastards at Habitat for Humanity.

New from me: I spoke to some immigration attorneys about what they've seen so far, and what they anticipate is coming. Some crazy stuff in here, including the fact that these attorneys did not want to be named out of fear of retaliation. 1/2 [radleybalko.substack.com/p/a-q-and-a-...](
