NEW: Footage of a US citizen in Chicago being rammed then dragged from her car on her way to work.
Abducted, with no warrant, her family couldn’t find her for hours.
She was later released with NO CHARGE.
A DHS statement said she “violently resisted arrest, injuring two officers”.
You decide…

Attorney General Pam Bondi says she has retroactively appointed former Trump attorney Lindsey Halligan as a "special attorney" for DOJ and has "ratified" all of her actions to date, including her presentations to the grand juries that indicted Trump's foes.

I'll preface what I'm about to say by acknowledging that I am not an expert in appointment issues or DOJ's rules around Special Attorneys.
That said, I have no clue how Pam Bondi can legally go back in time and appoint Halligan to a position as of six weeks ago.

The number in new Trump polling that’s most worth watching
Even by the standards of Donald Trump's poorly reviewed second term in office, the poll numbers that have come out over the past week are miserable. An NBC poll found that two-thirds of Americans thin...

60 Minutes Edits Donald Trump Telling Them 60 Minutes Should Edit Donald Trump Talking About How 60 Minutes Paid Him For Editing Kamala Harris
60 Minutes is under new management and things are getting stupid faster than you might expect. Last night’s episode featured President Trump, which is currently being described as “nuts.” There are all sorts of crazy moments to call out, but let’s start with the recursively meta nonsense. 60 Minutes edited out a segment where Donald Trump tells them to edit out a segment in which he brags about getting CBS to pay him because of them editing out part of an answer by Kamala Harris, and he notes that CBS clearly did the wrong thing in editing Harris in the same fucking sentence he tells them to edit out what he’s saying.

Rewatching a few of the classic Granada episodes in his honor today. For my money still THE definitive screen Holmes, and it's not even particularly close.

Trump says there 'could be' US troops on the ground in Nigeria, or air strikes

Trump knows regime change wars are unpopular so he has sold it as a counternarcotics operation, figuring that executing people on boats he alleges are narco terrorists is popular with the US public. Only 27% approve.

SecDef announcing another illegal strike in the Caribbean against “narco-terrorists.”
Says the Pentagon will treat these alleged drug smugglers “EXACTLY how we treated Al-Qaeda.”
I can think of a few relevant differences between the two, eg 9/11, etc.
