It’s hard to overstate how grotesque is the prosecution of Letitia James. I hope John Roberts—who unleashed this malignant, vengeful career criminal on our beloved country—is enjoying Trump’s utter abuse of power and trashing of justice and the rule of law.

Donald Trump is not a king — and his administration is not above the law.
Today, the court confirmed what we all know: there is no credible evidence of a rebellion in the state of Illinois.
And no place for the National Guard in the streets of American cities like Chicago.

The last three government shutdowns have happened while Donald Trump was President.
This shutdown, like all recent shutdowns, is a REPUBLICAN SHUTDOWN.
Enough with the chaos. Time for Republican leadership to work with Democrats to reopen government and save your health care.

Surreal moment for America. Needless to say, if the normal police ever pulled something like this — pulling every single person out of an apartment building and handcuffing them to run warrant checks — they would be sued into oblivion.
Yet ICE is going to get away with it entirely.
