- DHS Secretary Says He’s ‘Drawing Up Plans’ To Halt International Flights T...
Secretary of Homeland Security Markwayne Mullin said his department is “drawing up” plans to prevent inbound international flights from landing in what he called “sanctuary cities.” The Trump administration has been waging an ongoing crackdown on undocumented immigrants across the U.S. Officials have railed against what they call “sanctuary cities,” where local law enforcement have been instructed not to cooperate with federal immigration agencies such as Immigration and Customs Enforcement. In response, President Donald Trump has deployed immigration agents and even the National Guard to Democratic-run cities. Mullin appeared on Tuesday’s edition of Hannity on Fox News, where he boasted that DHS has arrested “tens of thousands [of] gang members that are in categories of terrorists.” He provided no evidence for his claim that such an enormous number of “terrorists” have been apprehended. The secretary then explained that DHS has been floating the idea of preventing international flights from arriving in certain cities, especially Newark, New Jersey, because of the ongoing protests at Delaney Hall, a detention facility holding up to 1,000 immigrants. He said local law enforcement is not assisting federal agents there. “[T]he street, it belongs to the city, “Mullin said. “If it belonged to us, we would take care of it, but it belongs to the city, and they’re barricading our employees from coming in and out of the facility… Why are we processing international flights into the airport there? And we are currently, which we’re not initiating it yet, but we’re currently drawing up plans to say, listen, in these sanctuary cities where the local, radical left Democrats aren’t allowing us to do our job and enforce federal laws, then we shouldn’t be processing international flights into their cities either because they don’t want us to enforce immigration.” On Monday, ICE agents fired pepper spray at protesters and Sen. Andy Kim (D-NJ) outside Delaney Hall. Kim said he was trying to broker an agreement between protesters and the agents. Several inmates at the facility are on a hunger strike. On Tuesday, Border Czar Tom Homan said the inmates will be force-fed “if it gets bad enough.” Watch above via Fox News.The post DHS Secretary Says He’s ‘Drawing Up Plans’ To Halt International Flights To Cities That Don’t Cooperate With ICE first appeared on Mediaite.

(Rick Scuteri | Credit: AP) (Evan Vucci | Credit: AP) President Donald Trump responded to Joe Biden’s lawsuit against the Justice Department on Tuesday, calling the former president a ‘crooked politician’ in a Truth Social post. Biden sued the DOJ over the department’s announcement that it would release recordings and transcripts from Biden’s interviews with a ghostwriter for his memoir. The Justice Department claimed it would make the materials public on June 15. The 10-year-old conversations were part of Special Counsel Robert Hur’s 2023 investigation into Biden’s handling of classified documents, after which conservative group the Heritage Foundation requested the interview materials under the Freedom of Information Act. Heritage Foundation’s Oversight Project president Mike Howell told Politico in a statement that the tapes “will further prove the massive lie regarding Biden’s fitness for office and the fact Biden revealed classified information.” The Biden administration fought the 2024 request. Trump’s Justice Department claimed in court documents earlier this month they would fulfill the request, giving Biden’s legal team a deadline of Tuesday to take legal action. The former president’s suit asks the court to permanently bar the release of the material. “President Biden cooperated fully with Special Counsel Hur, and agreed to provide audiotapes of conversations with his biographer for a book about his deceased son on the condition that they would not be made public,” Biden spokesperson TJ Ducklo said in a statement earlier this month. “The DOJ themselves have said these tapes serve no public interest.” Trump responded to the move on Tuesday evening, reposting an article about the suit with his own added commentary. “A Crooked Politician!!!” the president wrote. Hur’s investigation did not culminate in criminal charges, though he did conclude that Biden read classified information to his ghostwriter. The special counsel’s description of Biden as a “sympathetic, well-meaning, elderly man with a poor memory” became a sticking point in the debate over the former president’s age.The post Trump Angrily Responds To Biden Suing His Administration: ‘Crooked Politician!’ first appeared on Mediaite.

Tom Williams/CQ Roll Call via AP Images Rep. Thomas Massie (R-KY) is coping with his primary loss last week by vacationing in Costa Rica with former Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene (R-GA), TMZ reported on Tuesday. Citing sources with direct knowledge, TMZ reported that Massie, his wife Carolyn Grace Moffa, Greene, and her fiancé Brian Glenn “are all chilling together in Costa Rica.” The report includes a photo of the four posing together on the beach. Massie lost a Republican primary challenge to former Navy SEAL Ed Gallrein last Tuesday after President Donald Trump endorsed Gallrein in what was the most expensive House primary ever. Massie had been a thorn in Trump’s side on several issues, including the Jeffrey Epstein files and the Iran war. On Monday, Massie announced he had filed to run again in 2028 so he can continue to fundraise while he decides his political future. He also vowed to release the names of powerful people who appear in the Epstein files, but who have not yet been exposed. Greene retired in January in the middle of her term after running afoul of Trump (and right after qualifying for her congressional pension) over the Epstein files and later, after leaving office, the Iran war. This month, Glenn announced during a live appearance from the White House that he is exiting Real America’s Voice. “This has been really the only life I’ve known, you know, chasing the news, being in front of the camera,” Glenn said at the time. His announcement came just nine days after Trump referenced Greene during a press gaggle in the Oval Office. “You know, you act so good,” the president told Glenn. “I love this guy. He’s a great guy, even though I don’t love his girlfriend too much.”The post Thomas Massie Vacations With Marjorie Taylor Greene in Costa Rica After Primary Defeat first appeared on Mediaite.

Earlier this month, the Department of Justice unsealed a superseding indictment charging former Cuban President Raúl Castro, the 94-year-old brother of the late dictator Fidel Castro, and five other members of the Castro regime. The indictment comes after months of escalating rhetoric from President Donald Trump’s administration against Cuba and other regime leaders. Raúl Castro led Cuba after his brother became ill and then turned over the position to current leader Miguel Díaz-Canel in 2021. The indictment of Raúl Castro and the other defendants was a rare topic of bipartisan agreement, especially in Florida where both Republican and Democratic elected officials and candidates in the state with a border 90 miles from Cuba’s shores loudly denounced the Castro regime and applauded the indictments as “long overdue.” Trump has repeatedly made threats to use military action against Cuba, suggesting the U.S. would take a similar approach as when it captured Venezuelan dictator Nicolás Maduro in early January. Thus far, the Cuban government remains defiant and has vowed they are ready to defend against any U.S. attacks. A recent report by Axios said “Cuba has acquired more than 300 military drones and recently began discussing plans to use them to attack the U.S. base at Guantanamo Bay, U.S. military vessels and possibly Key West.” Fox News anchor and senior foreign policy correspondent Gillian Turner interviewed Rodríguez, who replied in Spanish and his remarks were translated into English by an interpreter, about the latest developments in the relations between the U.S. and Cuba, including asking about recent comments by Trump and Rubio. Regarding Trump’s repeated comments that Cuba was a “failing nation,” Rodríguez said that if Cuba was such an “inefficient state,” and “if the Cuban economy would not be viable,” then “what would be the use” of Trump issuing the executive order declaring a complete energy blockade against Cuba, or other economic sanctions. And now the U.S. has “resorted to a military threat,” Rodríguez continued, arguing that the “difference” in the two countries’ “political system” or government should not be “the reason for provoking a war or to cause a bloodbath or a humanitarian catastrophe.” Turner said that Rubio had said to her… [TheTopNews] Read More.8 hours ago
