BREAKING: Trump doesn’t support the 2nd Amendment.
Q: Do you agree with the assessment from some of your own officials that Alex Pretti is a domestic terrorist or assassin?
TRUMP: Well, I haven't heard that, but he certainly shouldn't have been carrying a gun. I don't like that he had a gun.

Now he thinks we need to have gun legislation? Let’s see what his base says about that!
Trump: "With that being said, you can't have guns. You can't walk in with guns. You just can't. You can't walk in with guns. You can't do that. But it's just a very unfortunate incident."

If you’re Dems, please coalesce around Stephen Miller not having a job anymore.
Dems coalescing around 5 restrictions on ICE, I'm told:
DHS required to cooperate with state probes (big)
CBP stays at border
warrants for arrests
IDs, bodycams
ICE out of churches, schools
"That package unites a lot of Dems," Sen Chris Murphy tells me on the pod:

It's not quite the most pressing issue at the moment, but the American people absolutely have a right to know the names of the federal officials who shot and killed a man peacefully protesting, who was on his knees, prone in the street when they shot him in the back.

There are rumors in MAGAland that not only is Bovino being removed from Minneapolis, he’s being relieved of duty as the commander at large.
Unverified at this time, but with watching.

Had Republicans had just stuck to hammering Democrats on fraud they would've had a potent political weapon. Instead they turned it into a hate campaign against Somalis and an orgy of violence against Minnesotans and now we're getting statements like this 👇
pretty wild statement re: Republican Chris Madel drop from race for MN governor:
"Saying he cannot support the national GOP's 'stated retribution on citizens of our state, nor can I count myself a member of a party that would do so."
