Everyone — regardless of political party — should be outraged by the dramatic overreach from Trump’s DOJ.

They are spying on and surveilling Members of Congress as we conduct oversight.

A Reuters photographer captured this image of a page from Pam Bondi's "burn book," which she used to counter any questions from Democratic lawmakers during an unhinged hearing today.

It looks like the DOJ monitored members of Congress’s searches of the unredacted Epstein files.

Just wow.

The introduction would be a requirement for carrying a weapon on board. Though as someone who flies out of DCA a lot, I’m pretty sure they could do it before they board, if they wanted to.

Source tells me roughly 30 passengers on their flight from Minneapolis to Dallas this morning appeared to be federal agents of some kind, with each stopping to introduce themselves to crew and pilot while boarding.

I really feel like: Donald Trump is building a prison camp system on the scale of Hitler, Stalin, and Mao … would be a good and true headline to run every day. Advertisements across media. Speeches on the Senate. Everywhere.
When I got the contract to write a history of concentration camps in 2014, I hoped to keep the US from ending up here. That didn't work out! But now it's critical to understand how much is already in process and the enormity of what's coming. The sooner we act to stop it, the more people we'll save.

This is the second time an ICE employee has been arrested in in a Bloomington, MN underage sex trafficking sting www.cbsnews.com/minnesota/ne...
Police in Bloomington, MN just announced that one of the guys they arrested in an underage sex trafficking sting was a **background checker for ICE agents.**

He had a high security clearance in the Trump administration... and he was caught trying to abuse children. Sickening.
