Trump, the head of the new party of violence, says assault and battery by immigration agents hasn't gone far enough
“Have some of these raids gone too far?” O’Donnell asked.
“No, I think they haven’t gone far enough because we’ve been held back by the judges, by the liberal judges that were put in by Biden and by Obama,” Trump said.
“You’re OK with those tactics?” O’Donnell countered.
Yet another bad legal take from a Trump lawyer: The 2020 fake electors need federal pardons for fake state crimes

Vice President under George W. Bush, Dick Cheney has passed away at age 84
Cheney had had a heart transplant in 2012.
Maybe the best thing about him was that he was kicked out of Yale. Twice.

Trump is in big trouble with the voters on the economy and constitutional rights
Blue Wave incoming.
Poll: Frustration with Trump gives Democrats an opening a year before the midterms
Around
two-thirds of voters say Trump has not lived up to their expectations
on the economy and the cost of living, according to the new NBC News
poll.
... Meanwhile, protecting democracy
and constitutional rights is a top issue to voters, alongside costs, as
Trump continues an expansive agenda of executive actions on immigration
and other key policy areas. And a majority of voters believe he’s done
more to undermine the Constitution than defend it.
... The October 2025 results mirror NBC News’ polling in August 2010, months
before midterm elections that were seen as a repudiation of President
Barack Obama. At that time, two-thirds of Americans
said Obama and his administration had fallen short of their expectations
on the economy, as the country struggled through the aftermath of the
Great Recession. ...
At Rasmussen Reports Trump disapproval has been running at a record high 53% for five consecutive days
See for yourself, here.
I reckon the government shutdown and the 60 Minutes interview in which Trump doubled down on many bogus claims aren't going over so well.
Why isn't co-conspirator 1 charged in the crimes of Ali and Mahmoud? Why the discrepancy of 2 arrested in the one story, 3 in the other?
Is it because co-conspirator 1 is the FBI informant who suborned these two into plotting a terrorist act?
And how did these young men have all this money to buy, legally by the way, all the weapons and gear mentioned in the stories?
2 US citizens arrested in alleged ISIS-inspired Halloween plot: DOJ
Two men were arrested on Friday for allegedly plotting an ISIS-inspired Halloween attack in Michigan, according to court records unsealed on Monday. ...
The FBI was first alerted to the men after a 2024 review of one of the unnamed co-conspirator's phones. When that person returned to the United States, a Customs and Border Protection officer searched the phone and found "Google searches related to 'ISIS' and the 'Islamic State,' and pictures of what appear to be Co-conspirator 1 in military-style clothing with weapons," documents said.
While the co-conspirator was traveling abroad, Ali and Mahmoud participated in a group call "discussed traveling overseas to join Co-conspirator 1 and then later traveling together to Syria to join ISIS," the documents said. ...
Michigan terrorism suspects were plotting to attack Ferndale, feds say
Three days after announcing their arrests on social media, the federal government brought criminal charges against two metro Detroit men, alleging they plotted to carry out a terror attack over Halloween weekend in Ferndale, except the FBI got to them first.
According to a criminal complaint filed on Monday, Nov. 3, Mohmed Ali and Majed Mahmoud, both 20, are charged with having AR-style rifles, shotguns and handguns that would be used in a conspiracy to commit a terror attack and provide material support to the Islamic State (ISIS) terror organization. ...
According to the complaint, the investigation into the defendants goes back a year, and includes an undercover FBI informant who secretly recorded conversations involving a group of Michigan men who the government says planned and trained for months to carry out an attack in Michigan over the Halloween weekend. ...
Mahmoud and Ali are among five men initially encountered by law enforcement on Oct. 31. Three of the men were arrested and two were questioned and released. The men — ages 16-20 — were arrested in predawn raids in Dearborn and Inkster that drew praise from Michigan's governor, the state attorney general and the president of the United States. ...
OMG, speaking of 1984's holy trinity, lawyer Robert Barnes names the three stooges OG NeverTrumper Tucker Carlson, former client Alex Jones, and alt-right Steve Bannon the holy trinity of true MAGA lol
Just another Manic Monday.
Real Clear Politics platforming Barnes tells you it really is 1984.
Does Israel have a stronger supporter in the world than Donald Trump? Is he a political pariah, too?

So the FBI's great Michigan Halloween terror plot was a conspiracy among teenagers to get together to smash pumpkins?
BUT YOU SAID IT WAS ISLAMIC STATE EXTREMISM!
Michigan lawyer says a Halloween terror plot that FBI Director Kash Patel described never existed
A Michigan defense lawyer is disputing FBI Director Kash Patel’s allegations that his 20-year-old client and four other young suspects were planning to carry out a terror attack on Halloween weekend. ...
The investigation involved discussion in an online chat room involving at least some of the suspects who were taken into custody, according to two people briefed on the investigation who could not publicly discuss details. They spoke to The Associated Press on condition of anonymity. The group allegedly discussed carrying out an attack around Halloween, referring to “pumpkin day,” according to one of the people. The other person briefed on the investigation confirmed that there had been a “pumpkin” reference. ...
Since the 9/11 terror attacks, the FBI has foiled several alleged attacks through sting operations in which agents posed as terror supporters, supplying advice and equipment.
As usual with the fictions the FBI fabricates in Michigan and the Midwest, the so-called Halloween terror plot Kash Patel says the FBI stopped in Dearborn looks like another nothing burger
Reported by The Detroit Free Press:
A
lawyer representing one of five young men arrested in an alleged
Halloween terrorism plot says the suspects are merely video gamers who
engaged in tough talk online and recreational gun activities — not
radicalized terrorists, as the FBI has claimed.
"These kids are gamers, gamers are weird in the way they talk to each other," attorney Amir Makled said to the Free Press following a jail visit with his client on Saturday, Nov. 1.
According
to Makled, his client is one of five men ages 16 to 20, all born in the
United States, who were arrested in separate FBI raids on Halloween,
accused of plotting to carry out a terrorist attack over the weekend.
But
none of it is true, protested Makled, who said there was never any plot
to harm anyone, and that FBI Director Kash Patel jumped the gun in
annoucing on "X" that the "FBI thwarted a potential terrorist attack and
arrested multiple subjects in Michigan who were allegedly plotting a
violent attack over Halloween weekend."
"There is nothing here," Makled said. "What they did was jump the gun."
As for his 20-year-old client, who remains jailed without charges, Makled said:
"He
says they got it all wrong. ... There's no plan. There was no plot, and
there was no imminent threat of a terrorism event in the state of
Michigan at all. And I believe him."
None
of the five suspects have been charged. In federal cases, the
government typically has 48 hours to charge someone before letting them
go.
According to Makled, the five suspects landed on the FBI's radar over their recreational gun activity. ...
Makled
said this case reminds him of the failed 2012 Hutaree terrorism trial,
which involved a group of heavily armed militia members upset with the
government, and talking about committing all sorts of violence while
"playing army" in the woods.
The
defense in that case argued that it was all just talk. The judge
eventually agreed and acquitted seven of the Hutaree defendants, just as
the jury was about to go into deliberations. The defendants were free
to go and the jury was sent home.
"This
is like Hutaree 101," Makled said of the current case, adding: "I don't
know what the government has yet ... but it's giving me those Hutaree
vibes."

Nothing shows that Trump is still a Democrat at heart more than his restated support for ending the Senate filibuster
Imagine the ten worst things either side would pass with a simple majority as soon as it got it.
Republicans could repeal Obamacare right now without the filibuster, and the Civil Rights Act of 1964.
In the future Democrats could easily pass Medicare For All without it, and close the Department of Defense.
Elections would become even more desperate contests for power than they already are, and a deeply divided America would plunge into chaos.
Everything would become far less predictable, which would poison the economy.
Americans and their employers would become even more vulnerable to the federal pickpockets who populate the halls of Congress.
Just say No to Mad King Ludwig.

San Francisco Health Department finds out in October 2025 that the U.S. Navy discovered Plutonium 239 at the decommissioned and partly inhabited Hunters Point Naval Shipyard last November
... The plutonium levels were more than double the Environmental Protection Agency’s “action level,” when further steps must be taken to ensure public safety, according to the letter. ...
The story is here.
Irony alert: Masked ICE, DHS, CBP employees who get to hide their identities roam the streets with facial recognition capability to gather images and fingerprints of citizens
The right of the people to be secure in their persons, houses, papers, and effects against unreasonable searches and seizures, shall not be violated, and no Warrants shall issue, but upon probable cause, supported by Oath or affirmation, and particularly describing the place to be searched, and the persons or things to be seized.
You thought you were voting for deportations of illegals, and you got an Obama-style police state instead.
If you see ICE, CBP, DHS on the street, turn around and go the other way, and vote against these bastards.
You Can't Refuse To Be Scanned by ICE's Facial Recognition App, DHS Document Says
... On Wednesday 404 Media reported that both ICE and Customs and Border Protection (CBP) are scanning peoples’ faces in the streets to verify citizenship.
... The app can also scan peoples’ fingerprints and provide information based on those, and uploads location data “so ICE can identify where the encounter took place.”
“Although the intended purpose of the Mobile Fortify Application is to identify aliens who are removable from the United States, users may use Mobile Fortify to collect information in identifiable form about individuals regardless of citizenship or immigration status. It is conceivable that a photo taken by an agent using the Mobile Fortify mobile application could be that of someone other than an alien, including U.S. citizens or lawful permanent residents,” the document continues.
... “By using the Mobile Fortify app to provide real-time responses to biometric queries, ICE officers and agents can reduce the time and effort to identify targets compared to existing manual processes,” the document says.

In other news, our misinformed, out of touch, SAT verbal section flunker Mad King Ludwig thinks other countries are testing nuclear weapons and, by golly, we should too!
Trump directs nuclear weapons testing to resume for first time in over 30 years
... No country except North Korea has conducted a nuclear test explosion in this century, according to the Arms Control Association (ACA) - and even Pyongyang announced a moratorium in 2018.
... The US-based ACA ... estimates ... America's nuclear stockpile sits at about 5,225 warheads, while Russia has approximately 5,580.
... "Trump is misinformed and out of touch," Daryl G Kimball, executive director of the ACA, wrote on X. "The US has no technical, military, or political justification for resuming nuclear explosive testing for the first time since 1992."
"Trump will trigger strong public opposition in Nevada, from all US allies, and it could trigger a chain reaction of nuclear testing by US adversaries, and blow apart the nuclear Nonproliferation Treaty, " Mr Kimball added. ...
Trump keeps escalating the domestic militarism in order to foment unrest where none exists, so that he can justify federal martial law if unrest does occur
Trump wields the military like it's his own personal plaything, just itching to violate the Posse Comitatus Act.
Meanwhile those liberal fanatics at the American Enterprise Institute have really gone off the deep end in their Trump derangement.
... Trump has mobilized thousands of National Guard members in D.C., Los Angeles and Memphis, with deployments to Chicago and Portland, Oregon, delayed by court decisions. He has claimed unfettered authority to deploy military personnel onto American soil, including active-duty troops, which by law are prohibited from performing law enforcement duties except in extreme cases or if the president invokes the Insurrection Act.
... “They are increasing their ability to mobilize National Guard forces, federalize them and use them over the opposition of localities and governors,” said Kori Schake, director of foreign and defense policy studies at the American Enterprise Institute.
... While the courts have at times contested Trump’s domestic military deployments, Congress has abdicated its oversight responsibility, Schake said, prompting larger concerns of institutional decay.
“They’re behaving like a parliament, not like a presidential system,” she said. “And it’s going to break the American order, our constitutional order, if Congress and governors can’t check executive power.”
