BREAKING: The chief federal judge in Minnesota has just ORDERED the Acting Director of ICE, Todd Lyons, to appear personally in court, UNDER OATH, this Friday and warned that he could be held in CONTEMPT for the agency’s repeated violations of court orders.

“The court’s patience is at an end.”

Creating a military conflict with Venezuela gives this administration a legal "hook" to invoke the Alien Enemies Act. In other words, the foreign war is being manufactured in order to facilitate court deference for its domestic mass deportation policy. It's a Stephen Miller Special.

Video shows Department of Justice official urging Jan. 6 rioters to 'kill' cops The Department of Justice hired a former Jan. 6 defendant who was caught on tape urging rioters to "kill" police. The department calls him a "valued member" of the administration.

You spit at cops, they can hit you, Trump brags. I assume the DOJ official in charge of setting those boundaries is this guy?

While the Department of Justice is meeting in secret with Ghislaine Maxwell to coach her on testimony, it is hiding from us three discs containing court-authorized recordings of her phone calls. [Source: ABC News] That is the REAL evidence. And this is a cover-up.

This is truly insane. We are witnessing one of the most corrupt cover-up schemes in history—and it's all playing out in plain view.
