wow -- Bondi throws a fit in response to Nadler's question about how many of Epstein's co-conspirators, if any, she's investigating, aggressively pointing at him and yelling. The hearing then devolves into chaos and Raskin and Bondi start yelling at each other.

ICE has now spent over half a BILLION dollars just on purchasing warehouses around the country to convert into detention camps.
If these mega-camps are utilized to the full capacity ICE intends, they'll be the largest prisons in the country, with little real oversight. www.ajc.com/politics/202...

The first storm will arrive Tuesday and continue Wednesday. A moderate amount of coastal and valley rain (about 0.5-1 inch) and mountain snow (generally <1.5) is expected. Breezy wind also expected, strongest along Central Coast.
