Last week, one of Trump's senior DOJ appointees strongly attacked a South Carolina's judge's voting rights decision. Today her house was burned to the ground by suspected arsonists.

Court-watchers confirm this cruel ICE agent has been reinstated.
Last week, in the briefest moment of decency, violently throwing a woman to the floor was “beneath the men and women of ICE.”
This week, it’s back to business as usual. The cruelty, after all, is the point.

I was back at 26 Federal Plaza today, where an ICE agent violently threw this bereft woman to the ground in front of her kids. She had not touched him. She did not pose any threat. She had to be taken to the hospital. (🎥: Elias Eliahu)

An observation: As long as masked, unidentified ICE agents continue to violently abduct people off the street, beat people up, separate families abiding by the law (immigration court) etc. they will reap what they have sown.

Tom Homan was investigated for accepting $50,000 from undercover FBI agents. Trump's DOJ shut it down.
The FBI and Justice officials closed the investigation, which a Justice Department appointee had called a “deep state” probe in early 2025.
