To be clear, this should be one of the biggest scandals to ever reach the presidency.
DOJ - after illegally scrubbing Trump from the Epstein files - is retroactively removing files they missed that would be embarrassing to the President.
It’s a complete affront to Justice.

This is a very astute observation. I hadn't thought about Keith Kellogg, he just disappeared from the scene. It makes perfect sense that Putin would want to fainthearted guy like Witkoff doing the negotiations. 🗽

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

The story is insane. The acting head of cyber security, a Noem crony, repeatedly demanded to see highly classified information he didn’t need access to, and when staff set up a lie detector test as a condition to grant him access, he failed it. So DHS suspended the staffers.
Acting CISA director failed a polygraph. Career staff are now under investigation.

At least six career staff were placed on leave after DHS opened an investigation into whether they misled the agency’s acting director, Madhu Gottumukkala, into taking the test.

It’s the “season of love and giving”…but this year, doesn’t it seem more like a “season of fear and taking”? Like many of you, I’ve been saddened by the human impact of draconian government budget cuts and how angry many housed Americans are at unhoused Americans.

I don’t think the law passed by Congress said that DOJ has to release less than 1% of the materials by Dec 19.

Hello Thriends! I hate asking for things On Here, but here goes.
With the ICE raids and spike in immigration based evictions in Illinois, the simple truth is that I can't keep up with the demand for my services. There are way more people who need a name-your-own-price lawyer than there are Sheryls.
