One refugee who HE approved commits a crime (under still-murky circumstances) and Trump talks of stripping legal immigrants, who had nothing to do with it, of their citizenship.

This is a perfectly reasonable question for voters to ask, but there are many answers Shaheen could give that don't involve capitulation.

Reminder about Axios.
Axios’ editorial comms director who is relentlessly pushing the Axios/Tapper book about Biden was a literal Republican operative who did comms for Ron Johnson, Kevin Cramer, the RNC, the ND Republican Party, and worked on Rand Paul’s 2016 campaign.

NEW: Pentagon officials are forcing staff to watch Pete Hegseth's "Warrior" speech he forced generals to listen to.
Officials are even "testing" staff to see if they watched — and are threatening consequences if they lie about watching it or if they mock it, sources tell @swin24.bsky.social and I.

Trump's scam of inventing "mortgage fraud" charges against his foes is failing. So he's set to fire a top prosecutor who is failing to bring charges, ABC reports.
Failing to bring corrupt prosecutions is now a firing offense. This is profound misconduct.
