oh so Now they care what a judge says
FOX: What is stopping the administration from just redacting any sensitive information in the Epstein files and putting out what is appropriate?
LEAVITT: A judge would have to approve it. That's out of the president's control.

“Alligator Alcatraz” is a concentration camp by every definition, and just like in Weimar Germany it is unlikely that immigrants are going to be the only group that end up in the camps. Anyone who studies history has seen where this train ends before.

What happened today is that a group of armed soldiers and federal officials walked across a park where a bunch of kids were playing until Bass asked them to leave.
Now listen to the DHS official ranting about how Bass is protecting "MS-13, child rapists, drug traffickers." Is is insane.

The CA movement is nothing more than denialism. Why would someone shoot kids leads to this never happened. If it "never happened," this dad doesn't have to deal w it. But his son does.
