Rep Goldman raises the obvious point, which is that if ICE doesn’t "want to be called a fascist regime or secret police, then stop acting like one."
Goldman to Lyons: "You said in your opening statement that references to ICE as 'the Gestapo' or 'secret police' encourages threats against ICE agents. The problem is you have it backwards. People are simply making valid observations about your tactics, which are un-American and outright fascist."

Rep. Jamie Raskin said a 2009 email exchange between Trump and Epstein lawyers contradicts Trump's narrative that he kicked Epstein out of Mar-a-Lago in the early 2000s. The exchange was redacted in the public release of the files, but an unredacted version was shown to members of Congress.
