Now seems like a swell time to point out that Frontline just released this excellent 11-minute mini-documentary about what happened inside CECOT.

Is disbarring an option for Bondi?
“Any DOJ official who does not comply with this law will be subject to prosecution for obstruction of justice,” Ro Khanna said in a House speech this week. “If Pam Bondi does not comply with the law, she will be held either in inherent contempt of Congress or subject to impeachment.”

This is not a surprise to anyone who was closely following this case. It *ought* to be, however, a moment to reflect upon the responsibility (or not) of media outlets that, deliberately or not, led folks to believe that a grant was a serious possibility (which it never was).

This Reuters chart is pretty remarkable and I think it reveals Trump's true agenda, which is really all about just cashing in on his presidency.

There's a large convoy of about ten vehicles roaming around with seemingly no plan, far as I know they started somewhere around the Midway area by Cicero Ave two hours ago, went east to 47th/Western, went up to Bridgeport, then to north Pilsen through Ashland and are now going west on Roosevelt.

They list @chirla-org.bsky.social as one of the groups they’re going to go after. CHIRLA has been fighting for immigrant rights since the Reagan admin. I’ll be standing by them if the admin comes after them.
President Donald Trump's threatened crackdown on the finances and activities of liberal non-profits and groups opposed to his agenda is a multi-agency effort with top White House aide Stephen Miller playing a central role, according to officials.
