It’s out in the open. Judge Young said the quiet part out loud.

“The big problem in this case is that the cabinet secretaries & ostensibly, the president of the US. are not honoring the First Amendment.”

Democratic politicians facing frivolous criminal investigations from Trump:

Kat Abughazaleh
Elissa Slotkin
Jason Crow
Tim Walz
Jacob Frey
Letitia James
Lisa Cook
Mark Kelly
Eric Swalwell
Adam Schiff
Two days ago it was Elissa Slotkin. Last week it was Jerome Powell. Before that, Mark Kelly. Weaponizing the justice system against your opponents is an authoritarian tactic.

The only person not being investigated for the shooting of Renee Good is the federal agent who shot her.

🚨 No accident they just announced a DOJ probe into Walz and Frey—potential pretext for Insurrection Act. Trump literally said this, as I detailed in my story

“We have an Insurrection Act for a reason...if governors or mayors were holding us up, sure, I’d do that” www.motherjones.com/politics/202...

Any DoJ attorney who participates in this investigation should suffer professional and social shunning that makes it effectively impossible to continue to work as an attorney.

Let’s call this what it is: a disgusting abuse of power and a farce.

As his agents terrorize Minnesotans, as prices rise, as he fails to deliver for Americans, he is also weaponizing the DOJ against his perceived enemies.

This is not a banana republic and justice will prevail.

Reporter: Francisco Longoria was stopped in his car with his son in the passenger seat. One of the Border Patrol agents smashes the glass, and then Longoria drives away. It's very clear that there were no federal agents in front of Longoria's vehicle, yet the agent discharged his firearm at him

The actual story is that a family of American citizens trying to evacuate from a neighborhood that ICE had made unsafe, and then ICE tossed munitions into the car, causing three kids to be hospitalized and a six month old to stop breathing. DHS called the family “radical agitators”
