NEW: Abigail Spanberger this afternoon ordered that all state agencies leave ICE's 287(g) program.

This means that the state police (and some other agencies) will no longer be empowered to detain and arrest people for ICE.

Big, big move by the governor within weeks of coming into office.

Abigail Spanberger left the 287(g) program, which empowered state law enforcement to detain immigrants. Will Democrats also bar local police and sheriffs from the program?

"The Kremlin continues to reject the parts of the initial US-proposed 28-point peace plan as well as the latest US-Ukrainian-European 20-point peace plan as insufficient to address Russia’s demands about minority rights in Ukraine."

Russia is still negotiating for control over Ukraine to agree to end the war:

"Lavrov’s insistence that post-war Ukraine be “friendly” and “benevolent” implies that Russia will only be satisfied with a Ukraine led by a pro-Russian government that makes pro-Russian policies."

Often during the Ukraine war the news media has promoted the idea that the situation for Ukraine is hopeless. Relentless Russian advances.

The war has nearly destroyed the Russian economy and significantly depleted Russia's ability to wage war.

My counterpart at the RNC seems to think that ICE is “doing the right thing” in Minneapolis.

Is it right for masked federal agents to execute U.S. citizens in cold blood and then face no real investigation?
