They sure are desperate to deport him before they have to present their evidence in their criminal case against him in court.

Oops, found the answer. Federal Rules of Criminal Procedure Rule 6 says that “A grand jury may indict only if at least 12 jurors concur.”

Genuine question for the experts, is there precedent/is it common for just two federal grand jurors to review and approve an indictment? Is this similar to a panel of judges hearing a case rather than the whole court?

Would love for a journalist to compile a list of all lawmakers from both parties who took out loans to buy second homes in the DC area.

Don’t the states also track unemployment?

Just a hint of the #aurora visible in Roseville, CA. Used my iPhone and turned up the tint.

Screenshot of a tweet from Joyce Carol Oates posted on Sunday, November 9th that reads "so curious that such a wealthy man never posts anything that indicates that he enjoys or is even aware of what virtually everyone appreciates--scenes from nature, pet dog or cat, praise for a movie, music, a book (but doubt that he reads); pride in a friend's or relative's accomplishment; condolences for someone who has died; pleasure in sports, acclaim for a favorite team; references to history. in fact he seems totally uneducated, uncultured. the poorest persons on Twitter may have access to more beauty & meaning in life than the "most wealthy person in the world."

Found the tweet that Joyce Carol Oates bodied Elon Musk with and it's so beautiful in its eloquent, simple take down. So much so he's crashing out trying to prove he reads books now. Put this in the Louvre.

World Central Kitchen was founded in 2011 by Jose Andres to help Haiti post-earthquake, Puerto Rico after Hurricane Maria, then Ukraine. They set up a kitchen in Gaza but 6 cooks were killed by Israeli army, forcing WCK to leave.
Now they are in Jamaica.
A great thing if you can donate.

For context, she was answering a question about whether the President was considering any other renovation projects around the White House grounds, besides the Rose Garden and the ballroom. It was a narrowly focused question, not a global one.

C’mon, guys.

Opinion | Six surgeons general: RFK Jr. is a threat to the health of Americans It was our duty in office to warn of dangers when we found them. We’re doing that again today.

“Secretary Kennedy is entitled to his views. But he is not entitled to put people’s health at risk.”

Six former surgeons general condemn RFK Jr.

This evening, President Trump is ordering 400 members of the Texas National Guard for deployments to Illinois, Oregon, and other locations within the United States. No officials from the federal government called me directly to discuss or coordinate.

I see @SecKennedy was able to attend Charlie Kirk's memorial. It's unfortunate the Secretary of HHS was not able to attend the funeral of Officer David Rose who was killed in the senseless attack on the CDC, one of the agencies within @hhs.

Of the two boys with smallpox, the one who had been vaccinated has very few pox while the other is horribly disfigured.

1901, photograph by Dr. Allan Warner of two 13 year old boys both infected with smallpox on the same day, one vaccinated as an infant and one not.

Immigration Raid on Hyundai-LG Plant in Georgia Rattles South Korea

Will definitely encourage investment in the US.

“When they were arrested, the LG employees were on business trips with various visas or under a visa waiver program to provide technical guidance for building the battery factory, according to industry officials familiar with the project.”
