Maybe someone could ask the president not to post the all-clear on mass shootings before the suspect is in custody.

the entire thing is a spectacle based on a professional provacateur who comically gut put in charge of CBS news interviewing the bereaved wife of a far right political rabble rouser. No big mystery why adverts are squeamish. anyone w a media background says no shit
Major advertisers appeared to sit out a new CBS News town hall telecast Saturday, moderated by Bari Weiss and featuring an interview with Erika Kirk.
Lack of Madison Avenue support could challenge the viability of the format, which Weiss wants to expand

In early November, reports circulated that a woman was arrested at an airport in Utah.
Then, later in the month, a 19-year-old college student was arrested at the airport in Boston.
We reveal how these arrests came to be.

UPDATE: I've heard from Jose's family. He's apparently been transferred to an ICE detention center in TX, but it's been days since they've been able to speak with him.
He needs medical care and to be able to speak with his family and lawyer. This obscene cruelty helps no one.

You can hear Jose scream in excruciating pain as an ICE vehicle runs over his foot while he's being detained.
His family says Jose is a good man, with no criminal record, who works in roofing.
He needs to be released from detention to receive appropriate medical care.

I don’t want to see “experts say Trump can’t pardon a state conviction.”
That’s like “experts say sun rises in east, and some scientists claim water is two hydrogen atoms attached to an oxygen atom.”
It’s just a fact.
He CANNOT do this.
And the media DAMN well better get their coverage right.

Trump has no jurisdiction over state-level cases to offer the pardon.

Sean Hecker, Kilmar's attorney, once hailed how much courage it took Kilmar to challenge what DOJ/DHS is doing to him. That stuck with me. Kilmar Abrego is just some guy, vulnerable in a way most of us are not.
But he has taken on Trump and ... thus far at least, prevailed.

"Today’s ruling is a powerful affirmation that the rule of law still matters," Sandoval-Moshenberg said. "The Court made … clear that the govt cannot detain a person indefinitely without legal authority, and that every agency involved must now comply fully and promptly with the Court’s directives."
