After Lindsay Halligan’s first indictment against Letitia James was declared void on Nov. 24 when a judge found Halligan’s appointment was unlawful, a New York jury refused to indict James for a second time yesterday. www.nbcnews.com/news/amp/rcn...

Grand jury declines to indict N.Y. Attorney General Letitia James, less than two weeks after the first case was dismissed
Federal officials failed to secure the new indictment against James, whom Trump has targeted, after a judge said the previous one was secured by an unlawfully appointed prosecutor.

What a line from the Pope! I am so pleased he is carrying on Pope Francis’ advocacy for immigrants.
More pointedly, the pope said, "Someone who says, I'm against abortion, but is in favor of the death penalty is not really pro-life. Someone who says, I'm against abortion but I'm in agreement with the inhuman treatment of immigrants in the United States, I don't know if that's pro-life."

Why would the DOJ scrub the fact that right-wing extremism is the #1 domestic terror threat in America? Why not acknowledge and confront it? Also why haven't they released the Epstein Files? Also why did Ghislaine Maxwell get a sweetheart deal transfer? These problems won't go away.

You might have missed this GOOD NEWS! After a week in detention, ICE released 300 Korean Nationals & Trump asked them to STAY & GO BACK TO WORK at Hyundai. They declined & went home, but were assured they would have no problems on re-entry. ICE really fucked up. m-en.yna.co.kr/view/AEN2025...
Regarding the delayed departure, Rubio told Cho during the talks that it was largely due to the fact that President Donald Trump told his officials to "encourage" the Koreans to stay in the country to continue their work, a foreign ministry official said.

"That led to a halt in the departure process, in order to first hear Korea's position on whether the detained nationals, all of whom are skilled workers, want to return home or stay in the U.S. to continue working and help train American personnel," he said.

"It didn't have anything to do with handcuffing, although that issue had not been resolved at the time," the official added.

Cho explained to Rubio that the detainees are "extremely shocked and exhausted," and it would be better for them to return home first and come back to the U.S. later.

Trump's remarks suggest that there will be no disadvantages for the Korean nationals when reentering the U.S., and South Korea understands this as confirmation that no records of illegal stay will be kept and that their return will be treated as a voluntary departure, the official said.

The official also noted that the government believes the detainees did not carry out work beyond the scope of their visas and did not admit to overstaying in the U.S.
