Kristi Noem less than a month ago: "There is no scenario where Abrego Garcia will be in the United States again."

(No matter what happens, bringing him back to the US is a climbdown for the administration)

Two weeks ago, Ben Schrader - the highly respected chief of the criminal division for the U.S. Attorney's Office in Nashville - announced he had resigned.
According to LinkedIn data, that was May 21 - the same day as Abrego Garcia's indictment. 1/2

Bannon is going for it. Calling for Musk's deportation on grounds of immigration fraud.
Stephen K. Bannon, who has been one of the most vocal critics of Musk for months, said he is advising the president to cancel all of Musk’s contracts and launch several investigations into the world’s richest man. “They should initiate a formal investigation of his immigration status because I am of the strong belief that he is an illegal alien, and he should be deported from the country immediately,” he said in a phone interview with me. Bannon said the Trump administration should also investigate Musk’s drug use, as reported by The Times, and his effort to get a classified briefing on China from the Pentagon, which was also reported by The Times. Bannon said Musk’s security clearance should be suspended during these investigations.

BREAKING: Second Circuit panel, one day after arguments, unanimously rejects government's arguments and orders that Rumeysa Ozturk be transferred to Vermont no later than May 14. ww3.ca2.uscourts.gov/decisions/is...
For the reasons stated above, the government's motion for a stay of the transfer order requiring Öztürk's transportation from immigration custody in Louisiana to immigration custody in the District of Vermont is DENIED. The government's request for a writ of mandamus is also DENIED. The administrative stay entered by this Court is hereby VACATED. Recognizing both that the district court's original transfer deadline has passed, along with the practical and legal consequences of our decision for the parties, the government is hereby ORDERED to comply with the district court's transfer order within one week of the date of this opinion. Accordingly, the district court's April 18, 2025 Order is hereby amended as follows: "To support the Court's resolution of these issues, the Court orders that Ms. Öztürk be physically transferred to ICE custody within the District of Vermont no later than May 14, 2025." The district court may amend its hearing schedule as it deems necessary in light of this order.

Don’t look away. This is what Libya’s migrant detention facilities look like. This is what Trump is doing.

Amnesty International called Libya’s migrant detention centers a “hellscape,” where beatings and sexual violence are rampant and there are many reports of trafficking and even slavery.

JD Vance broke the National Championship trophy, then visited the Pope who died the next day, then visited India and a terrorist attack happened and war broke out, then endorsed his brother for mayor who lost 83-11%.

What’s next on the agenda?

Thank you to President Trump for inviting me to the White House.

Our meeting today marks the beginning of a new relationship between Canada and the United States — based on respect, built on common interests, and to the transformational benefit of both our nations.

On this Resurrection Sunday, I’m holding tight to faith, to purpose, and to the power of second chances.

Let this day be a reminder: there’s nothing more powerful than grace.

Happy Resurrection Sunday, y’all.

👂LISTEN: @RepHarshbarger backs sending people to foreign prisons without due process, calls believing everyone has constitutional rights “nuts”

Can someone tell her what she’s describing isn’t “common sense”, it’s authoritarianism?
