Tom Cotton: Congress isn't notified when the FBI is going to arrest a drug trafficker or a cyber criminal here in the United States. Nor should Congress be notified when the executive branch is executing arrests on indicted persons.

When asked directly, Trump skirts an endorsement of María Corina Machado to take over Venezuela, says their 2024 election (and "Charlie" would agree with him) "wasn't a hell of a lot worse than what they did to us in 2020."

you don't need to add caveats agreeing that the head of state abducted is a bad guy before opposing abduction of a head of state by military force. If the rule was any head of government is fair game then the entire world would be a series of decapitation strikes and show trials in foreign courts.

Fox News anchors have already reached the natural point of international tension here: can Trump basically do this to any foreign leader he accuses of being involved in drug trafficking? Should allies like Mexico be worried?

The president says he’s giving members of the military $1,776. It doesn’t make up for all the damage to the VA.

Seems somewhat relevant as the trump admin promises people thousands of dollars in a “stipend” to leave during the holiday season: This article ends with an account - one of so many - of a family of three following the rules and orders, and after informed that ICE officers present had “our orders”…
In a profile of Stephen Miller with @swin24.bsky.social, we reported he’s privately laughed off immigrant families’ “sob stories.”

Speaking last night on Fox about the spiked CECOT story, Miller laughed about how ‘60 Minutes’ is “trying to tell sob stories."
