Keep a VERY close watch on Zorro Ranch. Until warrants are in hand and every inch is searched, NOTHING leaves…no trucks, no trailers, no “deliveries.” Drones can document digging/excavation. There are legal ways to secure evidence and force accountability.

If you think there’s NOTHING in our heritage (or in any nation’s) to be unapologetic about, you’re a fool. A dangerous fool.

A child dying of cancer spent her final days fighting to free her wrongfully detained father from ICE custody.
 
This comes just weeks after a mother from Maryland was denied the right to be at her son’s side as he died from cancer.
 
Not one dime for this cruelty.

I think we are going to have a Democratic-controlled Senate.

And all we will need for the leadership of that Democratic Senate to do is hold actual, real, impeachment trials.

As the Constitution requires.

Not the bullshit fake trials like the ones that the Senate held in 2020 and 2021...

If you’ve ever wondered how Pam Bondi still has a law license after all this, you’re not alone. I lay out exactly why — and what it exposes about our accountability system.

TAPPER: There were prosecutors in Minnesota who were going to investigate the shooting Renee Good and then the word came down from DOJ to stop

HOMAN: That's a question for DOJ. That happened before I had my feet on the ground in Minnesota. That's a question for Pam Bondi or Todd Blanche

Tom Homan what Noem meant by saying DHS will "make sure we have the right people voting electing the right leaders": "I don't know. That'd be a question for the secretary ... I have not talked to her. That's something she'd have to answer."

Hey Siri, what’s a “Kavanaugh Stop?”
Homan: "When they say 'stop racial profiling' -- that's just not occurring. ICE will briefly detain and question somebody based on reasonable suspicion. It has nothing to do with racial profiling."

And what’s the US Constitution’s guidance?

HOMAN: That's not what federal law requires

O'KEEFE: As I recall, you previously said you thought judicial warrants were required

ABC: Do you still have confidence in Pam Bondi as AG?

MASSIE: I don't think Pam Bondi has confidence in Pam Bondi. She wasn't confident enough to engage in anything but name calling in a hearing. So no, I don't. She was responsible for the document production.

Massie: "The DOJ wants to say they're done w/ this Epstein document production. The problem is they've taken down documents before we were able to go over & look at unredacted versions. They took down some of the most significant ones. They can't keep those down after they've already produced them."

The Department of Homeland Security has had to correct information provided to at least five states after its SAVE voter tool misidentified some voters as noncitizens, according to correspondence between state and federal officials.

“Not Ready for Prime Time.” A Federal Tool to Check Voter Citizenship Keeps Making Mistakes.
The Department of Homeland Security pushed out the revamped tool while it was still adding data. That led to widespread misidentification, particularly for citizens born outside the U.S.
