Given repeated opportunities, AG Bondi repeatedly refuses to apologize for exposing the identities, sensitive information, and photographs of Epstein victims, attacking lawmakers for asking the question.

DM me? We used to get hundreds of highly qualified applicants for a single job posting. Good prosecutors are increasingly hesitant to work for this DOJ.

This isn’t about convicting Don Lemon. It’s unlikely that will happen. It’s about intimidating journalists & making them censure themselves out of fear of consequences. It’s about eroding the free press because the administration can’t afford the criticism.
This just in: "Don Lemon was taken into custody by federal agents last night in Los Angeles, where he was covering the Grammy awards," Lemon's attorney Abbe Lowell says.

Some members of the Trump administration painted Alex Pretti as a violent instigator because he was carrying a loaded gun while protesting. But licensed gun owners can do so under both Minnesota state law and federal law. www.snopes.com/fact-check/m...

I wrote this song on Saturday, recorded it yesterday and released it to you today in response to the state terror being visited on the city of Minneapolis. It’s dedicated to the people of Minneapolis, our innocent immigrant neighbors and in memory of Alex Pretti and Renee Good.

This is just misleading. There is a big difference between saying state resources can’t be used to enforce fed’l civil immigration policy & local cops refusing to assist fed’l partners in an emergency. Deliberately conflating the two is disingenuous.

This isn’t “Democrats’” job. Enforcing federal criminal law is DOJ’s job. ICE/ERO handles civil removals. This sounds like agencies Trump runs can’t perform the mission without putting people in harms way.
Trump’s demands of Minnesota and Minneapolis - still blaming Dem leadership in the state for the chaos and death his regime has caused. Doesn’t sound promising.

Genuinely interesting. Kristi Noem is snitching that Stephen Miller is the one who made up the bullshit about Alex Pretti.
It would be genuinely useful if Congress can get her to admit that he has been dictating ALL OF THIS just like he dictated the murderboats.

BREAKING: Trump doesn’t support the 2nd Amendment.
Q: Do you agree with the assessment from some of your own officials that Alex Pretti is a domestic terrorist or assassin?
TRUMP: Well, I haven't heard that, but he certainly shouldn't have been carrying a gun. I don't like that he had a gun.
