When exactly did Congress authorize Border Patrol to start occupying American cities with brute force because the federal government deemed its officials guilty of "collusion and corruption"?

Also, if that's what he's looking for, I have some staggering news about his bosses in Washington.
Bovino: "Choosing or making a choice is one of the only true freedoms any of us really have ... when as a politician you choose collusion & corruption as a choice, then there are consequences and actions that take place because of that. That's one reason CBP & ICE are here in Mpls by the thousands."

Remember the Bundy insanity during the Obama years? Armed guys occupied a federal office and one of their buddies took position with a sniper rifle aimed at federal agents?

Exactly how many of those guys were shot and killed?

Public executions will continue until the citizenry is silent.
Q: Between your agency and ICE, we've known seen 2 people shot and killed with 17 days. Do either of you plan to take any accountability?

BOVINO: You're correct. Two suspects have been shot. And suspects that assault or threaten a law enforcement officer's life, it goes back to poor choices.

Minneapolis Police Chief Brian O'Hara: "People have had enough. This is the third shooting in less than 3 weeks. The MPD went the entire year last year recovering about 900 guns from the street, arresting hundreds of violent offenders, and we didn't shoot anyone ... this is not sustainable."

Now that the TikTok deal is done, we've lifted a few articles out of the paywall for today in an effort to see how we got here.

First, here's @laurenfeiner.bsky.social on the TikTok ban that kind of wasn't.
Even the lawmakers behind the TikTok ban have no idea what’s going on
TikTok was supposed to be banned from the US 10 months ago.

Seriously, @people.com has been meeting the moment better than 90% of publications with direct reporting and crystal clear headlines.

This is a good way for the low-information voters who are usually detached from the news cycle to get turned around.

Repeat after me - the institutions of this economy depend on the institutions of this democracy, among which is the rule of law
Jack Smith: "My fear is that we have seen the rule of law function in our country for so long that many of us have come to take it for granted. The rule of law is not self-executing. It depends on our collective commitment to apply it."

Whatever is in the Epstein Files is so explosive that the leaders of the Department of Justice are openly breaking the law every day to keep us from seeing it. (Just a reminder amongst all the other stuff flying around.)

Did the United States really spend trillions of dollars on winning the Cold War, only for its president in 2025 take orders from a Russian dictator?

This is an earth-shattering humiliation for America of which its reputation may never recover.

A growing body of research indicates that Texas's restrictive abortion bans have negatively impacted the health and lives of Texas women and babies in multiple ways. Across the board, pregnancy outcomes and complications have worsened.
What researchers have discovered about maternal, infant health under Texas' abortion laws
In the more than four years since the state of Texas significantly restricted access to abortion, medical researchers have been studying the health effects of that policy change.

Poverty is a policy choice. Concentrated wealth is a policy choice. Inequality is a policy choice. None of it is natural or inevitable. Remember: We have the power to build a system that serves the many, not the powerful few.

Loser Mike Johnson hopes we forgot about extending ACA tax credits while he was on Christmas vacation.

Let’s make it very clear how wrong he is:
Tell Congress: Demand Speaker Johnson hold a vote IMMEDIATELY on the ACA tax credit extension
Contact Congress today!

Want to better understand the jury verdict in Judge Hannah Dugan’s criminal trial? And how can Congress hold Pamela Jo Bondi in inherent contempt over the Epstein Files?
