Republicans in Congress have abandoned any pretense of leadership or accountability. Day after day, they allow Donald Trump and his administration to traffic in extremism, cruelty, and dangerous rhetoric without consequence.

The only POTUS worse than 45 is now, officially, 47.
The polling is THAT bad now.
That's why they want to rig the elections. They know it's gonna be a bloodbath on top of a massacre on top of a political genocide.
They're scared. We need to keep the pressure I n them & apply it even harder.

CONTEMPT FINDING: Matthew Isihara apologized for allowing the order in this habeas case to "fall through the cracks." Blamed situation on case overload & significant understaffing in US Attorney's office. Says he has picked up nearly 130 habeas cases in just last month.
@FOX9
1. DHS surges 3,000 officers to Minneapolis without doing anywhere near enough prep first.
2. Hundreds of habeas cases overwhelm local courts.
3. Dozens of DOJ lawyers quit in disgust/anger.
4. The DOJ brings in JAGs to cover.
5. A JAG was just held in contempt and fined $500/day for ICE's failures.
