In Case of Emergency: The Dubious Legality of Trump Allies' Draft EO
Conservative activists say that declaring a national emergency would allow Trump to assert sweeping authority over elections. They're wrong.
NEW: Right-wing activists are circulating a draft executive order that purports to give Trump sweeping power over federal elections.
@mollyroberts.bsky.social and I got new details on the activists, lawyers, and conspiracy theorists behind the proposed order:

Listen to the ages: 14m. 17m. 22m. 6y. Pregnant women unconscious. Seizing.
These are 911 calls from ICE’s Dilley detention center. When babies keep leaving in ambulances, that isn’t care. It’s a crisis behind fences.
Preserve evidence. protect families. demand review.

As Operation Metro Surge recedes, concern grows over tactics of Twin Cities bounty hunters
There are no licenses needed to become a bounty hunter in Minnesota, an issue that is raising concerns after highly public actions by bounty hunters in the Twin Cities this week.
Outside Minneapolis City Hall, two protesters blocked a van labeled with “Midwest Plumbing” decals advertising a disconnected phone number. The driver pointed a pistol at them. One of the armed men shot pepperballs into the crowd.
The men weren’t federal agents. They were bounty hunters.
