Remarkable how brutal the ruling against Trump on Abrego Garcia truly is: It details flagrant and malicious abuses of power all throughout. Trump and Stephen Miller were testing their ability to spread lawless state terror. But the court held the line. 1/

A thing that I feel is underappreciated about Trumpism - and this a perspective informed in particular by reporting from Michigan and Wisconsin but maybe now applies to Indiana - is that it has hollowed out the actual Republican Party with infighting in a way that could totally screw them
Indiana Lt. Gov. Micah Beckwith (R) tells NewsNation's Blake Burman that he endorses the Trump administration's plan to primary the state senators that voted against a gerrymandering plan.
