DOJ Admitted LaMonica McIver Didn't Assault ICE in Withheld Signal Chat
Plus, DOJ's ridiculous response to my Epstein FOIA, Trump's corrupt collusion with a hand-picked immigration judge to re-arrest Kilmar Abrego, and more embarrassing DOJ losses!

This is fucking grim. Somebody invented a white guy, an "IT professional" named Edward Crabtree, who stopped the Bondi shooting and spread it all over the internet, which was picked up by AI agents and slop aggregation sites.

Russia does not want peace and will always find a way to derail it.

Veteran detained by ICE: I identified myself as a US citizen and a veteran, but that didn't matter. Agents smashed my window, sprayed tear gas into my car, dragged me out. Even after I complied, I was held for 3 days without charges. No phone call, no lawyer, no medical care

As Zelensky’s plane was departing Ireland, four large drones were heading toward Dublin Airport, The Journal reports.
The UAVs reached the point where the presidential aircraft was supposed to pass around 11 p.m., but the plane landed ahead of schedule and missed them.
