Wild how the Trump admin says you can’t investigate an ICE agent for shooting a woman in the head at point-blank range — but the president can have the DOJ target his political enemies with bullshit charges anytime he wants.

This is precisely how you should respond to a bullshit investigation.
“This new threat is not about my testimony last June, or the renovation of the Federal Reserve Buildings… this is a consequence of not following the preference of the President”

I don’t think this new angle changed anyone’s mind, because everyone is already dug into their partisan foxholes, but it should very clearly at least show you that she wasn’t trying to run over this officer. That narrative was bullshit.
ICE agent should be charged with murder.

I had fun reading to some Burke Elementary students at the Chicago Public Library today. When the Obama Presidential Center opens next year, we’ll have a new branch of the library for the community to enjoy.

Because a large chunk of them cares more about access than actually doing their jobs.
If they lose the access, they lose their book deals, etc.
There are very few out there who actually want to hold politicians feet to the fire anymore - Trump’s most pointed questions come from foreign journos.

I’m pretty convinced that Trump’s lawyers hate him. That entire complaint read like it was copied over from a Stephen Miller speech.
Either way, judge struck this down and told the Trump lawyers to try acting like lawyers
