The DOJ seized Don Lemon after a court refused a warrant. That isn’t an arrest, it’s an abduction. A kidnapping.
Under a regime that treats dissent as criminal, the danger is real and unknowable. When power abandons due process, there are no honest answers and no clear limits.

Latest intel: The 5 govt funding bills will pass, & the 6th, the DHS bill, will get a continuing resolution to buy time to negotiate whatever these conditions in ICE are. The fight right now btwn Schumer & the White House is how long that CR will be. The WH wants 3 months; Schumer wants 1-2 weeks.

I’m in France, I love grocery shopping here and feel accomplished. I know what I bought, did my list in French. I deflected a man hitting on me by playing stupid American. I made an older man laugh at a joke I made in French and only had to say pardon once to the cashier.

Warren: "I know there are Republicans right now who are seeing what we're seeing in MN, and they know it's wrong. It's time to speak out. Silence is complicity. Grow a spine, show some backbone. Being 'disturbed' doesn't change anything and the ICE agents who are waving around loaded guns know it."
