Migrants have been held at Guantanamo before — most significantly Haitians who were fleeing a military dictatorship in 1991. Recently, too, a small number was held at Guantanamo (<40 bw 2020-2023 per Hamed Aleaziz’s reporting from last year). So this would be a massive expansion.
Trump announces an executive order authorizing a 30,000 capacity migrant detention center in Guantanamo.
"Some of them are so bad we don't even trust the countries to hold them because we don't want them coming back, so we're going to send them out to Guatanamo Bay."

FAA says a military helicopter collided with the American Airlines passenger jet from Wichita near DCA.
There must be immediate hearings on how the federal government/Department of Defense allowed this to happen and if removal of safety protocols and recent personnel changes led to this incident.

This new RFK Jr material on illegally taping the wife who went on to commit suicide is unlikely to make any more difference than the alleged sexual assault by Hegseth, but it still includes a lot of extremely disturbing behavior and alleged lawbreaking

Truly lawless statement from the WH PressSec: "He is the executive of the executive branch & therefore he has the power to fire anyone within the executive branch that he wishes to."
Nope. Civil servants have const due process rights. Can't be fired for political reasons or bc Trump feels like it.

This is insane: White House press secretary Karoline Leavitt is making it clear that Donald Trump is not a president but a king.

Worth noting that McConnell refusing to whip votes to convict Trump at his impeachment trial (or vote himself to convict) is *why* we’re now in a position where Hegseth is the Defense Secretary. If McConnell is looking for the person at fault, he might want to consult a mirror.
