For months, we've sought details about the shadowy deal the Trump Admin made with the Salvadoran govt to imprison people in the notorious CECOT prison — where they faced torture & other human rights abuses.
Yesterday, I got the official who signed the deal to publicly admit it for the first time.

Elon Musk on Tuesday complained about the position of Andrew Cuomo’s name on the New York City ballot and the fact that it appeared only once, while Zohran Mamdani and Curtis Sliwa's names appeared twice. But the listings are in keeping with the normal rules of the city's elections. Here's why.

Border Patrol agent Lairmore testifies that he was not injured by the sandwich, but he felt the impact through his ballistic vest.
The sandwich came apart and "kind of exploded" on his chest upon impact, he says.
"I could smell the onions and mustard."

I recently reported on an ICE officer who was publicly reprimanded and “relieved of his duties” after shoving a woman to the ground in an NYC immigration court. Well, he’s back.
DHS did not respond to a request for comment.

A Marine veteran turned oyster farmer who is now a rising Democratic Senate candidate once called himself a “communist,” dismissed “all” police as bastards, and said rural White Americans “actually are” racist and stupid, according to deleted social media posts seen by CNN. https://cnn.it/47sXon6

Graham Platner, a Marine veteran turned oyster farmer, now disavows posts he made years ago, saying they came from a time when he felt disillusioned and angry and expressed those emotions online.

The safety of New Yorkers is worth so much more than two lines in a TV show. But that's what Mayor Adams' top adviser allegedly sold out McGuinness for — along with $2,500 cash and $10k of catering.
Today, activists and lawmakers made it clear: safety shouldn't have a price tag.
