No More Benefit Of The Doubt Last Sunday, we discussed a number of cases pending in front of federal district judges in Minneapolis.

Some judicial opinions have to be read in full, like the one I parse for you to night, from Judge Tunheim in Minneapolis.

CBS obtained video of the DHS killing of an unarmed man in Texas that DHS concealed for nearly a year, which clearly contradicts claims that he violently rammed anyone. He is shot with his brake lights on, car not moving or barely moving. Another DHS crime.

ICE Wants to Buy Warehouses for Mass Detention. Communities Are Fighting Back. People across the political spectrum are realizing these federal detention warehouses will harm their communities.

The overdue firing of Kristi Noem will have no bearing on the continued plans for unwanted warehousing of human beings across the country.
The spotlight should focus on these warehouses (de facto concentration camps) during Markwayne Mullin's confirmation hearing.

Never forget that people believed Trump when he said to vote for him because if Kamala wins: inflation would get worse; the deficit would explode; we’d be thrust into endless new wars; and pedophiles would be protected. πŸ€¦β€β™‚οΈ

White House: the witness’sΒ allegations are β€œcompletely baseless” and β€œbacked by zero credible evidence.”

Fact: FBI found her credible enough to interview repeatedly, and she received a financial settlement from the Epstein estate.

Nothing makes sense from this Trump-Epstein Regime.

Trump may appear to be sane at times, but his tweets alone prove that he’s psychotic.

There’s no such excuse for SCOTUS or Congress.

They're going to write books about all the big brain moves of this gang of imbeciles and among them will be "Spending a year trying to kill renewable energy and then launching a war that sends oil prices soaring"

It is offcially the "Department of Defense", but Trump/Hegseth wanted to call it the "Department of War." Now watch them decide to call it the "Department of Limited Military Action" because that's the what Trump has to say to justify the bombing under the War Measures Act.

Looking forward to finding out why this administration has started this war

Can’t wait for the Benghazi 2.0 hearings to happen over abandoning US Officials and Diplomats across the Middle East because a child rapist and money launderer is being blackmailed to start a war on behalf of Benjamin Netanyahu.

Investigators now say the U.S. likely bombed a girls’ school in Iran, killing over 160 people, mostly children. If confirmed, it would rank among the worst civilian massacres of America’s Middle East wars.

The Department of Justice has sued 30 states and DC for access to their unreacted sensitive voter data. My law firm is fighting them in all 30 cases.

We are dedicating so many resources because these are the most important legal fights and the future of free and fair elections is at stake.

This is not the best part of the firing, but it’s in the Top 10.

The largest U.S. immigration and customs enforcement facility is plagued with reports of attempted suicides, flights, disease and hunger. Dozens of calls to 911 and interviews with detainees offer a disturbing portrait of conditions.

DHS nominee Markwayne Mullin is one of the most active stock-traders in the Senate β€” and violated the STOCK Act against insider trading as recently as last August.

He currently holds stock in L3Harris, which has millions in contracts with ICE and FEMA.

The grift continues.

All of our living presidents who still have a sense of decency gathered to honor Rev. Jesse Jackson.

Well, gas is expensive, and food is expensive, and we’re doing a war nobody wants, but at least there are no jobs
