All I’m saying is that President Harris wouldn’t have us looking at the futures market on a Sunday night.

We’re going to annex Canada and invade Greenland but we can’t request return of an innocent man from El Salvador.

Voting Rights Act at 60: Congress Could Hit New Low with SAVE Act The new legislation would require American citizens to produce documents like a passport or birth certificate to register to vote.

More than 21 million Americans lack ready access to a birth certificate or passport, which could be required to register to vote if Congress passes the SAVE Act. Many more, such as women who changed their name when they got married, don’t have one of these documents with their current name on it.

Low salmon numbers in California could prompt shutdown of fishing for a record third straight year California's fishing fleet depends on catching Chinook salmon. Low population numbers could lead regulators to shut down or sharply limit fishing this year.

California’s salmon population has declined so severely that regulators banned fishing in 2023 and again in 2024. This year, state estimates show the number of Chinook salmon is still so low that fishing could again be prohibited β€” or if not, sharply limited. www.latimes.com/environment/... #CAwater

People need to understand that we are in an entirely new paradigm. It is now Russia the US against Ukraine and Europe. This is not a shift in US policy, it is a transformation of what kind of country the United States is in the world

DOJ has abruptly broadened its view of Trump’s Jan. 6 pardons. A judge wants answers. A Trump-appointed judge grilled a Justice Department prosecutor on the department's change in position.

Judge: If evidence emerged that connected a Jan. 6 defendant to a murder, would the defendant be pardoned of that crime under DOJ’s interpretation?

DOJ couldn’t answer.

Judge: "That’s just extraordinary,” remarking on the breadth of Trump’s pardon for offenses unrelated to January 6th.

Now read Sassoon's blistering Feb. 12 letter to Attorney General Bondi.

"Although Mr. Bove disclaimed any intention to exchange leniency in this case for Adams's assistance in enforcing federal law, that is the nature of the bargain laid bare in Mr. Bove's memo."
