A 23-year-old Coast Guardsman goes missing at sea.
Search-and-rescue underway.
Kristi Noem allegedly tried to redirect an aircraft away from the rescue mission for migrant transport.
Nine days into her tenure as DHS Secretary, this is how it began. That tells you everything.

NEW: A page from Bondi's burn book. This is a list of the searches by Rep Jayapal of the unredacted Epstein files. That means the DOJ grabbed her search terms from the computers they set up for members of congress to view the Epstein files to use as ammunition. The photo is from Reuters.

Retiring Walmart CEO Doug McMillon made $27M last year, over 930 times the median Walmart worker's salary of just $29,469.
Walmart's wages are so low that its workers are among the most likely to rely on SNAP and Medicaid to get by.
