Pam Bondi just sent a letter to Minnesota officials saying ICE will leave if the state turns over its voter database to Trump. Guess what? This has never been about safety or immigration. It’s a pretext for Trump to take over elections in swing states.

The thing is, some people can make mistakes, get things wrong, be careless, etc. But that’s not what Jennings did here. Jennings knowingly, purposefully and intentionally lied to utterly distort what was said, which CNN pays him to do every day. CNN is the enabler of this.

Now that Trump says Venezuela will hand over 30-50 million barrels of oil, with proceeds of sales to be controlled by him, I want to reiterate: He's inviting our oligarchs to reap great riches by buying into his scheme of imperial hemispheric domination.

How is the evidence so far not clear enough that Trump is very likely provoking conflict within our nation's cities with intent; ostensibly to further a false narrative that even more force is necessary?

Trump could give Ghislaine Maxwell a pardon on his last day in office exchange for favorable testimony now (SCOTUS has already said he can’t be prosecuted for it). She knows he’s her only chance for release. That means any “new” testimony she offers is inherently unreliable unless backed by evidence

This is patently false. DHS has authority to question and search people coming into the country at points of entry. But ICE may not detain and question anyone without reasonable suspicion — and certainly not based on their physical appearance alone. This lawlessness must stop.
