    Around 12:12AM CST, the drugs began to take hold:

    Prosecutors allege Taherzadeh and Ali had falsely claimed to work for the Department of Homeland Security and work on a special task force investigating gang and violence connected to the Jan. 6 insurrection at the U.S. Capitol. They allege the two posed as law enforcement officers to integrate with actual federal agents.

    Taherzadeh is accused of providing Secret Service officers and agents with rent-free apartments — including a penthouse worth over $40,000 a year — along with iPhones, surveillance systems, a drone, flat screen television, a generator, gun case and other policing tools, according to court documents.

    He also offered to let them use a black GMC SUV that he identified as an “official government vehicle,” prosecutors say. In one instance, Taherzadeh offered to purchase a $2,000 assault rifle for a Secret Service agent who is assigned to protect the first lady.

    Prosecutors said four Secret Service employees were placed on leave earlier this week as part of the investigation.

    Mid-April always freaks me out - too many tragic anniversaries around that time.

    The circled part says Marines. The name is on the person's right side. I can't make out whether even that says Mandel or not, but the circled part says Marines.

    Why don't the other uniforms have the same words on the them? Are there different uniforms? This is kind of dumb, either way. Mandel did serve and it's impossible that he was never around Black guys in the service. But he's an terrible person whether he has Black friends or not.

    I don't have the slightest idea why the others don't have them on there. I was just calling attention to the tweet circling the word Marines and calling it a name.
