Lawyers: ICE detainee with brain tumor removed from hospital

An undocumented immigrant diagnosed with a brain tumor while in Immigrations and Customs Enforcement (ICE) custody was returned to a detention center from a Texas hospital, her lawyers said.

 

The woman, a Salvadoran national identified only as Sara, was released from Huguley Hospital in Fort Worth, Texas, and taken to Prairieland Detention Center against her will, according to her lawyers.

 

"She told us they tied her hands and ankles in her condition," Melissa Zuniga, a member of Sara's legal team, told The Hill. "She's complaining of a lot of pain."

DeVos: Critics want to ‘make my life a living hell’

In her first full week as U.S. education secretary, Betsy DeVos wasted no time in getting to work to try to explain her vision for education and the U.S. Education Department — and to go after her critics, saying they want to make her life “a living hell.” She also said she has identified people in the department who want her to fail, but vowed not to let them.

Her nomination by President Trump sparked an unprecedented backlash, and she was confirmed on Feb. 7 in the Senate only after Vice President Pence cast the first-ever vote to break a tie for a Cabinet nominee. Her backers see her as a champion of school choice and alternatives to traditional public schools, while opponents say her decades of advocacy work show that she wants to privatize the public education system.

Congresswoman Waters And Senator McCain Prank Called By Russian Comedians Pretending To Be Ukrainian Prime Minister

There’s no way these prank calls could be real right? Right? RIGHT!?!? I mean Rep. Maxine Waters, a California Democrat, and Sen. John McCain, a Republican from Arizona, two distinguished politicians who have 62 years of being federal statespersons between them. Plus McCain and Waters have been adamant about the allegations of Russians interfering with the election of President Donald J. Trump, so I’m sure that they would be super weary of being hacked by Russians themselves. However, if these videos are authentic then it appears that these two powerful politicians are the Americans who were hacked by the Russians.

Two Russian comedians, Vladimir Krasnov and Aleksey Stolyarov, somehow managed to infiltrate the camps of the U.S. politicians. The pranksters pretended to be Ukranian Prime Minster Volodymyr Groysman, successfully discussed Hillary Clinton’s health, Vladimir Putin, Russian sanctions, and a fictitious country.

The comedians have had success in prank calling luminaries in the past. In 2015, the duo prank called Elton John and pretended to be Vladimir Putin. The jokesters told Waters that there were Putin aides who were hackers only known on the internet as “Vovan” and “Lexus,” which is actually the online names of Krasnov and Aleksey Stolyarov. That moment when you’re so worried about Russian hacking that you, yourself, get hacked by Russians.

Democrats Want An Investigation Into Donald Trump’s Whistleblower Threats

WASHINGTON ― With President Donald Trump and congressional Republicans threatening to go after the people who leaked classified material about Trump’s ties to Russia, Democrats are asking the Justice Department to investigate the potential intimidation of whistleblowers ― and they want Attorney General Jeff Sessions to recuse himself.

In a particularly stern letter, Democrats on the House Judiciary Committee asked DOJ Inspector General Michael Horowitz to look into whether the Trump administration has engaged in any “improper effort to intimidate or threaten whistleblowers.” Democrats also asked the inspector general to determine whether Sessions should sit out that sort of investigation, considering his personal ties to former National Security Adviser Michael Flynn, who was also involved with the Trump campaign.

Dan Rather says Flynn’s resignation could lead to scandal worse than Watergate

Former CBS News anchorman Dan Rather has some ominous predictions about the larger implications of the resignation of former national security adviser Michael Flynn.

“Watergate is the biggest political scandal of my lifetime, until maybe now,” Rather wrote in a Facebook post on Tuesday, that continued with the following:

It was the closest we came to a debilitating Constitutional crisis, until maybe now. On a 10 scale of armageddon for our form of government, I would put Watergate at a 9. This Russia scandal is currently somewhere around a 5 or 6, in my opinion, but it is cascading in intensity seemingly by the hour. And we may look back and see, in the end, that it is at least as big as Watergate. It may become the measure by which all future scandals are judged. It has all the necessary ingredients, and that is chilling.
