A federal judge has taken an "extraordinary step" and ordered the head of ICE to appear in court later this week.

At issue is alleged violations of court orders related to immigration cases, including not releasing detainees despite a judge's ruling.

Last year, I reported on a problematic NYPD unit led by a particularly problematic commander.

The commander once pointed a gun at a motorcyclist and threatened to kill him.

Well, that commander, Kaz Daughtry, has a new job.

He now works for Trump's DHS.

For those who live in states that have banned abortion, their options are now severely limited.
