Just absolutely pathetic of this joke of an administration.

    Arrest a bunch of random people with great fanfare in order to preserve the optics of his claim. Then quietly release them with no media attention because there’s obviously no evidence because it’s all clearly covering up for incompetence.

    Here’s where that’s troubling…

    It’s a very small step between releasing them and making them disappear so that they don’t talk to the media afterwards

      With how his cult is, making them disappear is probably just too much trouble. His audience is gullible enough they likely don’t even need to make arrests, though.
