Exactly right, and therefore important not to give credit for an investigation of an obvious atrocity. Appropriate responses are apologies, resignations, firings, impeachments. The individuals who killed people should be tried before a judge and jury.
Okay, so this is an authoritarian playbook trick, once the evidence is overwhelming say everyone needs to wait for the official investigation then either fix it or attack it when its completed. Same shit Russian pulled with MH17 and chemical attacks in Syria, very predictable.
Reporter: Will Stephen Miller be apologizing to the family of Alex Pretti for calling him an assassin?
Leavitt: This incident remains under investigation.

Sounds about right 😢
UN Secretary-General Guterres warns the “law of the jungle” is replacing international rules, urging world leaders to recommit to the rule of law as the foundation of peace, justice and global security.

WHY is this surprising to anyone?! 🤨
As we await Senate action on the remaining spending bills, remember that Susan Collins could make a difference by stripping out DHS from the rest of the government funding bills. But she won't because she is just as MAGA as the rest of them.

It's taking a LONG TIME to get the camera footage from Alex Pretti's phone, which was last seen in the possession of federal immigration, and this makes me think it is worse than we thought, if that's possible.

The president should be impeached and convicted, as should everyone responsible for these outrages. ICE should be disbanded. So should the Department of Homeland Security. And the people who have killed should be investigated and brought before judges and juries.
We have to see the logic of the killings as well as the killings themselves. The horror is a truth in itself. But it is also a sign of a political logic, one known from the totalitarian regimes of the twentieth century.

All it would take is for a bunch of these CEOs to confront Trump in front of the world and tell him he's unfit to run a hot-dog stand, and his presidency would be over. Seriously.
But none of them has the balls to do it.

CNN: Can you rule out US taking Greenland by force?
Miller: Greenland should be part of US. By what right does Denmark assert control over Greenland? US is the power of NATO.
CNN: So you can't take military force off the table?
Miller: Nobody is gonna fight US militarily over future of Greenland.
