In a sign of how explosive ICE knew this secret memo would be, one whistleblower says he was only allowed to read the memo and was barred from taking written notes, and warned that employees had been punished for disagreeing.
At least one ICE instructor resigned rather than teach the illegal memo!

Indiana was the worst team in college football for 150 years and then they let you start paying players and they immediately became No. 1 and the only conclusion one can draw is they were the only ones who didn’t realize you could pay players under the table for the first 150 years.

It is a fire alarm fire when career prosecutors who investigated and won convictions on the Minnesota fraud that is provoking the Trump Administration’s actions in the first place quit because they don’t want to investigate a widow whose wife was shot in the face by the government.

Available to download Friday, some Epstein files no longer there Saturday afternoon
An NPR analysis of the Epstein files shows some documents, originally available on Friday, are no longer on the Department of Justice's "Epstein Library" website as the DOJ releases more files.
