Wow — listen to these new comments from Trump. Thanking Putin, trashing Zelenskyy, characterizing Russia as eager for peace and Ukraine as intransigent. The mask is totally off.

Sample “revelation”: FBI agents expressed doubts over probable cause to search Mar-a-Lago. But docs were not new &, more important, predated FBI seeing surveillance footage showing Trump aide removing boxes before his atty came to search them for subpoenaed classified files, resolving doubts.. 2/2
Mr. Solomon's presentation, both times, also omitted key context:
The field office's legal doubts came before Mar-a-Lago surveillance footage emerged that showed a Trump aide moving boxes from a storage area before a lawyer came to search it for subpoenaed classified files. The additional evidence resolved legal concerns about probable cause.

When Trump launched “the largest deportation operation in the history of our country” without ICE facilities to accommodate it, inhumane overcrowding was inevitable. Judge Kaplan’s 9/24 ruling shows the results. Diagrams simulating a NYC holding cell in Aug 2025 look like slave ships. 1/5
