This is out of hand. These agents are there to cause trouble and violence, not to keep people safe. These are the scenes that play out in war torn, destitute countries - not America.

The condescension of two-bit Attorney General Pamela Jo Bondi today underscores that the only thing this administration excels at is a complete lack of self-awareness.

Reuters photographer Jonathan Ernst noticed that Bondi flipped open a file during the Senate hearing and he zoomed in.

Inside were her crib notes for attacking the senators.

The GOP now practicing Cliff's Notes Fascism

In other words, under oath Bondi was purely a performance.

Pam Bondi won't say if Tom Homan kept the $50,000 in the Cava bag, so it's safe to assume he did.

The Yankees’ ability to barrage a team with home runs always keeps them in the game. And if they can hold the lead, which they now have after a Jazz Chisholm homer, Toronto is facing a bullpen game tomorrow, a day after their RP needed to cover 5+ innings. Not ideal for the Jays.

Historically, the Insurrection Act has only been used in response to genuine emergencies. Some experts believe that if President Trump invokes the Insurrection Act simply as a pretext for a military invasion and occupation of multiple blue cities, it would represent a possible violation of norms.

Murray: I talked to a family that’s paying about $300 a month for their health insurance. It’s going to jump to over $1,800 per month.

Many people will turn away and not pay for itβ€”obviously, they’ll lose their health insurance. The fewer people who have insurance, the more everybody pays.

By all means, indict Jack Smith on bullshit allegations and give him the trial that SCOTUS denied him.

Massive immigration raid on Chicago apartment building leaves residents reeling: 'I feel defeated' The Department of Homeland Security said federal agents with Border Patrol, the FBI and the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives arrested 37 people in the raid.

Not for nothing, Daniel: the Chicago Sun Times was reporting writhing 48 hours of the raid, confirming that residents of the building were segregated by race while they were detained. chicago.suntimes.com/immigration/...

Federal Agents Storm South Shore Building, Detaining Families and Children Families were woken by flashbangs and helicopters as hundreds of federal agents raided their homes. Days later, neighbors are still searching for the missing.

Good reporting on the South Shore raid from South Side weekly here.

Confirms one thing I was told but didn't put in my own piece because I didn't have a second source and it seemed too insane: border agents segregated arrested residents by race
