The White House is considering plans to halt processing of international travelers and cargo at major airports in sanctuary cities, a move that could disrupt air travel, commerce, and World Cup tourism across major Democratic-led states.

How can it be legal for the President to direct his AG (who is also his former personal defense attorney & who has publicly declared that he “loves” the President) to simply create a document stating that there can be no audits or investigations of him, his family, or his businesses? If he can do this, then any President could just order the AG to create a document stating that that President cannot be investigated for rape, murder, or treason. If the “settlement” Blanche has presented is permitted, then we do not live in a country in which the laws apply to everyone or in which there is a commitment to justice.

This is a tax amnesty worth potentially hundreds of millions of dollars, issued unilaterally, the day after the lawsuit it purports to implement was already dismissed. trib.al/DM5UCuu

Israeli FM Gideon Saar has blamed the Lebanese gov't for the “presence of Israeli forces in southern Lebanon”, a day after more than 30 people were killed and 40 wounded in a single day of Israeli attacks on Lebanese territory. 🔴 LIVE updates: aje.news/sslnch

@ChristopherHale @1EML33 People who assume that others must be writing with the aid of AI perhaps forget that those of us a little longer in the tooth have been writing without AI for our entire lives 😏.

I can confirm that this is 100% false. Not only was it written by hand, but the first drafts were literally written on paper with a pen.

A top doctor sounded the alarm on Trump’s habit of falling asleep during meetings, saying it could be evidence of a “severe illness.” thedailybeast.com/top-doctor-dia…

@Shana_Zen @FT @tRumpnado2016 C’est vrai 😖 Il est horrible 🤬

@amycoplan @FT @tRumpnado2016 N'espérez pas trop... Trump et sa bande ont pour seul objectif celui de plumer les US

FT Exclusive: Four months after its establishment, the organisation’s financial fund set up by the World Bank has received no money from donors, according to four people familiar with the matter. ft.trib.al/aqWkkaM

@NewsHour Pretty sure any non-disclosure doesn’t cover disclosure of unlawful activities. The criminal understanding of the law… you know!

One cannot help but wonder what it is fed employees are being asked to do that the administration is so worried about having revealed. If the administration isn’t doing anything wrong, why is this necessary? As for any classified or sensitive info., there are already laws against such info being revealed.

The Trump administration wants all current and future federal employees to sign non-disclosure agreements, part of a continuing crackdown on leaks to the media. to.pbs.org/4tXl6A4

@mehdirhasan @HariettCooper The same place God was when Paxton was bribing people, firing whistle blowers, & deciding that his friend who raped a little boy for years didn’t need to serve any time….

Where does he think God was while he was cheating on his wife?

You mean the 1.776 billion dollars that he “settled for” with himself bc of his taxes having been leaked during his last term? The one that is supposedly to be for those who feel they were the victims of weaponization by Biden’s DOJ? This 1.25 billion was supposedly transferred some time ago. I know that Trump was also originally suing the IRS for 10 billion before he settled. He also claimed that the US was going to donate 10 billion to his Board of Peace but it’s not at all clear that he’s entitled to spend any of our tax dollars on it (but seem to have already transferred 1.25 billion). I don’t have any special knowledge or anything. This is just what’s been reported.

@amycoplan @FT @ItsTheEnforcer It was 1.7 bil and no that's in another slush fund he plans to use for his friends not for this fund

Trump’s Board of Peace fund is empty ft.trib.al/dACVf5K

@thedailybeast Until very recently, one of the only labs capable of researching Ebola effectively was in the U.S.. RFK shut it down.

The plan comes nearly two weeks after the announcement of an outbreak in the Democratic Republic of the Congo, where more than 200 people have died in just 11 days. thedailybeast.com/donald-trump-t…

If we don't do a better job shutting down this Ebola outbreak in Congo, Uganda and South Sudan, we inevitably will be facing cases in many other parts of the world.

I absolutely agree, and we should all care even if the outbreak doesn’t move beyond Congo, South Sudan, & Uganda. Our country’s disastrous policies that many people warned would have serious repercussions played a role in what’s happening. And people are scared & suffering The suspected cases in Italy are reported to have come back negative for Ebola. msn.com/en-us/health/o…

Immigration and Customs Enforcement detainees are taking their own lives at a pace that’s unprecedented in the agency’s two-decade history, highlighting what experts call failures in care and oversight. abcnews.link/LAkNck1

I’m well aware of how different TX is from CA, but you all haven’t always been dark red. And you have had some excellent Dems in the House. I hear what you’re saying about TX not being about to become a haven for leftists, but Talarico isn’t exactly AOC. And seems like a lot of people all around the country are interested in new faces & pretty unhappy with both the Democratic & Republican establishments.

@amycoplan @A_Colker @DrewSav Leftists aren’t winning TX. We go through every two years. TX isn’t CA.

In heavily Hispanic Starr county which Trump flipped, the Dems got 6600 votes in the primary. Ken Paxton won that county tonight… with 60 votes. Add in Cornyn’s 30 and there were 90 GOP voters…

@Veronicaredmen2 @A_Colker @DrewSav Are all the votes counted? Maybe stuff is still coming in???

@amycoplan @A_Colker @DrewSav His numbers are way off. Dems only had 90 votes tonight in the state ag race. GOP actually had more votes in Starr county tonight
