Donald Trump and Pam Bondi once again violated the Constitution.
They’re wasting your tax dollars arresting journalists — while protecting pedophiles and the murderers of Renée Good and Alex Pretti.
That’s authoritarian bullshit.

🚨 The Senate has agreed to a deal to vote on 5/6 full appropriations bills and replace the DHS funding measure with a 2-week stopgap bill, per multiple sources. That gives time to negotiate on the Dem demands for ICE and CBP restraints.

There's a lot of focus on Tulsi's involvement, which likely means Putin will get these ballots.
But it's also notable DD Andrew Bailey was present. He has done, AFAIK, just one thing since he was installed as a Hunger Game ploy last September, but I have suspected he was doing something like this.

Some things you should know about Fulton County, Georgia
The county has already seen numerous claims about election fraud — all debunked. There's no reason to think that Kash Patel's FBI will find something new.

Wow! This read-along of the NYT moment-by-moment leading to the murder of Alex Pretti should shake everyone awake. He was a Good Samaritan.
Agents fired at least ten shots in roughly five seconds. DHS and Pam Bondi claim Pretti approached them armed and intent on a “massacre.”

And what is happening inside ICE detention centers? 404 Media also learned that the federal government claimed that the day after it was sued for allegedly abusing detainees at an ICE detention center, a “system crash” deleted nearly two weeks of surveillance footage from inside the facility.
ICE Says Critical Evidence In Abuse Case Was Lost In 'System Crash' a Day After It Was Sued
The government also said "we don't have resources" to retain all footage and that plaintiffs could supply "endless hard drives that we could save things to."
