CNN's Dana Bash does not appear to be prepared to interview the Secretary of the Treasury, and certainly does not push back when he makes questionable comments about previous

Democracy American-style.
Senator Alex Padilla is forcibly removed from Homeland Secretary Kristi Noem's press conference in LA.

"Hands off!," Padilla can be heard yelling.

Never seen a US senator handled this way.

On 6/12, DHS Sec’y Kristi Noem said “We are staying here to liberate [LA] from the socialists and the burdensome leadership this governor and mayor have placed on this country and this city.” This use of military force to displace a democratically elected is the very definition of a coup.

Worried it wil, huh? That's pretty equivocal. I guess we should try harder so they know for sure it will do so.

I am almost at a loss for words to describe the current leadership's actions. I finally settled on two words to describe the actions: irrational and reckless. Maybe you have two better words that you would use. Share.

Decades before President Trump canceled $400 million in funding for Columbia University, he tried to sell property to the school — for $400 million.

A quarter century ago, the university was looking to expand. It considered, and rejected, property owned by Donald Trump. He did not forget it.

The DHS Civil Rights and Civil Liberties Office did some of the most extensive oversight work of immigration/border policies that I’ve seen in recent years.

Staff were told today they were fired.
