The President of the United States tells Rolling Stone magazine:
[...] I have been able to make sure that our intelligence agencies and our military operate under a core set of principles and rules that are true to our traditions of due process. People will say, “I don’t know — you’ve got your Justice Department out there that’s still using the state-secrets doctrine to defend against some of these previous actions.” Well, I gave very specific instructions to the Department of Justice.

You sure did, Barry. We're getting the message loud and clear.
[...] Two Philadelphia police officers joined at least four TSA officers who had gathered around her. After conferring with the TSA screeners, one of the Philadelphia officers told her he was there because her checks were numbered sequentially, which she says they were not.
"It's an indication you've embezzled these checks," she says the police officer told her. He also told her she appeared nervous. She hadn't before that moment, she says.
She protested when the officer started to walk away with the checks. "That's my money," she remembers saying. The officer's reply? "It's not your money." [...]
Americans clearly need to familiarize themselves with the concept of impunity so they can put on the appropriate happy face in these times when it would be "inexcusable" for Democrats and progressives to sit on their hands while the President is working so hard to keep all those dangerous enemies of the people from ruining everything.
As our Vice President says, "Buck up, people." They can have you disappeared with impunity, you know... so do try to keep up a positive attitude.
