Lawyers for Luigi Mangione claim he wasn't read his rights before he was questioned by law enforcement officers, and they failed to obtain a warrant before searching his backpack.

Delay. Deny. Depose.

JD Vance blames Chuck Schumer for the fact that the White House mistakenly laid off key public health officials, including those dealing with measles and ebola.
The Trump regime's message is: We demand total power, but we're not responsible for anything.

BRENNAN: CBS confirmed the Trump administration rescinded the layoffs of CDC scientists. Some were involved with the federal measles response. How does a mistake like this happen?

VANCE: The govt shutdown inevitably leads to some chaos. It happened because of Schumer

B: But this was a WH decision

JORDAN: Comey is where weaponization all started. 9 years ago he took the dossier--

BASH: But that's not what he's being prosecuted for

JORDAN: I'm just saying, you want to talk about weaponization, that's where it started

BASH: So this is retribution then

Update: After WGN-TV producer Debbie Brockman was thrown to the ground, arrested by ICE, and accused of throwing objects at them, she was released without charges. It's all about intimidation, and Brockman did not relent. Thanks for being brave!

Apart from helping Comey's selective prosecution defense, this also means the president of the United States uses direct messages on Truth Social to communicate with cabinet officials.

I didn't know that, but we can be sure intelligence agencies all over the planet already did.

I did a brief search of Google and the major news websites for "Judge Diane Goodstein" and none of the corporate US news have this story.
⁉️ Why are the media silent about this horrific attack on a circuit court judge and her family, who had recently ruled against the Trump admin about voter data?

Judge Goodstein issued a TRO on September 3 blocking the State of South Carolina from handing over its full voter registration database.

I'm sure that's coincidence, though.

The Tennessee Holler @thetnholler.bsky.social · 6d

SOUTH CAROLINA… “Judge Goodstein was walking on the beach when the fire started. Her husband, Arnie, was in the house with children and perhaps grandchildren. The family had to escape by jumping from a window or balcony...” www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article...
