Wellman: When I served in Iraq.. I heard about how Saddam Hussein divided them. Different sects fought each other. But you know -- Saddam and his family sat laughing at all of them. They divided them against each other and kept their power for 35 years. Does this sound familiar to anybody?

In the coming days you’ll see headlines like, “ICE Can Now Come Into Your House Without a Warrant.”
They will be false.
Trump’s Attorney General, who once accepted a bribe from him when she was FL AG, instructed her agents to ignore the 4th Amendment of the US Constitution.
That’s the story.

Trump does care about the pain, chaos, and turmoil he’s causing—in the following sense:
He loves it. It makes him feel powerful.

So classified documents going back into the Mar a Lago toilet?
Pool report from Air Force One:
"The FBl is giving the President his property back that was taken during the unlawful and illegal raids. We are taking possession of the boxes today and loading them onto Air Force One" - Steven Cheung, spokes
Boxes were loaded onto the plane ahead of takeoff

Wait. It gets worse: "The new document states that the revenues will be directed to a fund in which the United States holds 100 percent financial interest, and that Ukraine should contribute to the fund until it reaches $500 billion....The US has allocated $119 billion for aid to Ukraine."
This is extortion of an ally: “The terms of the new proposal … call for Ukraine to relinquish half of its revenues from natural resources, including minerals, gas and oil, as well as earnings from ports and other infrastructure.” www.nytimes.com/2025/02/22/w...
U.S. Pressing Tough Demands in Revised Deal for Ukraine’s Minerals
The Trump administration appears to be insisting that Ukraine relinquish half of its revenues from natural resource extraction, with no security guarantee in exchange.

2 days ago Donald demanded our nationhood as the price of peace.
Then we hit with $125bil in counter tariffs and pulled American products off the shelf.
So now he settles for a fentanyl czar.
Canada shows the world how to stand up.
But this is ain't over.
Don't drop your guard.

Bryan MacCormack, the executive director of a New York-based immigrant rights group, was pulled over by CBP with two undocumented passengers in the vehicle. He knew his rights, refused to acknowledge their "warrant", and despite CBP threatening him, the agents eventually were forced to let him go.

Jeffries: It is unconscionable that Republicans are suggesting imposing right wing partisan conditions in order for California taxpayers to receive their tax dollars. California is one of those states that sends about five times as much to the federal government every year than they get back
