Another instance of a center director acting unilaterally to overrule other staff (which here also involved ignoring FDA's previous statements to the company).
As @reshmagar.bsky.social and I have argued, the bar should be much higher for such unilateral action:

It keeps the link intact but makes for a cleaner visual and gives you more characters to write above it.

Exactly this 👇
The most offensive thing about the video is not about Trump himself—it is utterly expected at this point—but the fact that this will change absolutely nothing about the response to him. There won’t be anyone who will treat him as A Racist or incorporate this blatant hatred into how they think of him

I don’t believe Tom Homan. I think this is a ploy to get @democrats.senate.gov to fund DHS. They lied about deescalation last week and I don’t believe a word the Cava Czar says.
Trump 'border czar' Tom Homan says 700 immigration officers will be withdrawn from Minnesota immediately.
Roughly 3,000 officers are currently deployed in the state.

Speaking to WaPo employees, editor Matt Murray says cuts are about “positioning ourselves to become more essential to people's lives, and what is becoming a more crowded, competitive and complicated media landscape, and after some years when, candidly, the Post has had struggles to do that."

Floored by this story. A man wrote a pollite email to a federal prosecutor objecting to the deportation of an Afghan seeking asylum. DHS responded with an administrative warrant to get the man's info from Google, then visited his home to intimidate him.
