How are things going with respect to the discovery before Judge Xinis in Abrego García? Well, the government describes as a “false premise” that it “has been ordered to facilitate Abrego García’s release.” (That’s literally what #SCOTUS held.) pacer-documents.s3.amazonaws.com/84/578815/09...

Pete Hegseth is a pretty despicable human being, on top of the other, many deficits he brought to the Pentagon But you should be even madder at the 50 senators who knew Hegseth was an alcoholic, a serial abuser of women, and a poser massively unqualified for the post and yet voted for him anyway

Last week, DHS and Secretary Noem's staff and spokespeople suggested that because Mr. Abrego Garcia had $1,100 in cash on him when arrested outside Home Depot seeking day labor, that was strong evidence that he was a member of MS-13. I guess that raises a similar question about her $3,000.

Of course advance information on US combat operations is classified. Pretending otherwise is an insult to our troops, who all know this. The Secretary is unfit to lead.

It’s gotten so bad that Donald Trump has his own party members afraid of retaliation if they dare cross him. We need a Senator who stands up for Michigan, even if it means standing up to Trump. That’s exactly why this race, and holding on to this seat, matters so much.
