Trump will do whatever he can to monkey with the midterms, but he can't cancel them. And that's why people need to turn up to vote - in droves.
Hey Tom, do you think we have enough mechanisms in place to keep him from canceling the midterms? That's my biggest fear right now.

An ICE agent saying "I don't care" and preventing an innocent woman who's been shot from receiving medical care are not the words or actions of officers lawfully protecting themselves and the community. These are the words of sociopaths happy with murder.

Kristi Noem calling the victim’s actions “domestic terrorism” is propaganda. Full stop. I served as a White House homeland security advisor. I know what that designation means & when it’s misused. A U.S. citizen is dead. She was a mom. This is what ICE impunity looks like. It cannot be normalized.
This Was Inevitable. And It Is Unforgivable. ICE Owns This.
A warning ignored. A life lost. This cannot become routine.

According to my sources, the FBI was initially open to a concurrent investigation with the MN Bureau of Criminal Apprehension (the state agency that would do this investigation).
Trumpy U.S. Attorney Daniel Rosen heard about this and intervened, barring the FBI from cooperating with local police.
