The suit, which was filed by Democratic Representative Bennie Thompson of Mississippi and the NAACP, alleges that Trump incited the assault in violation of the Ku Klux Klan Act, a Reconstruction-era statute prohibiting interference with Congress’ constitutional duties, according to the NAACP.

“We need the Wall more than ever!” Trump tweeted on Tuesday. This isn’t about coronavirus. It’s about continuing to whip up fear toward immigrants, refugees and other people who hope to begin a new life in the U.S. It’s about sending a signal that, as the Trump administration officially declared in 2018, we are no longer a nation of immigrants. That’s bad news for our economy, and not only because Mexico is our nation’s largest trading partner....

The first two Black Ops games may have been some of the best Call of Duty titles ever, and Black Ops 3 was the highlight of a weak futuristic era, but Black Ops 4 and Black Ops Cold War each had some significant issues. Call of Duty 2024 needs to avoid these drawbacks, and if it succeeds in doing so, the Black Ops series could become just as popular as it was several years ago....

The main pillar of Saddam’s power–his family–was cracking. “It leaves a huge hole in the regime,” says a Western diplomat in Amman who watches Iraq closely. “This is the most dramatic development since the gulfwar–and the most threatening one to Saddam.” But does Hussein Kamel really command enough authority in Iraq to pull off a coup? And if so, why didn’t he do it while he was still in the country, instead of running away to Jordan?...

As breakthroughs go, this was a huge one. Trubisky threw a career-high six touchdown passes — one shy of the NFL record — and the NFC North-leading Bears pounded the Tampa Bay Buccaneers 48-10 on Sunday. The Bears (3-1) won their third straight with Trubisky delivering the sort of performance general manager Ryan Pace envisioned when he traded up a spot to draft the prized quarterback with the No. 2 overall pick last year....

Kinzinger, a staunch Trump critic, is one of two Republicans serving on the committee, the other being GOP Representative Liz Cheney of Wyoming. Kinzinger and Cheney voted with eight other Republican House members to impeach Trump for inciting his supporters to attack the federal legislative branch of government last year.

She noted that the hearings, which are being held by the House select committee investigating last year’s Capitol riot, are having a certain affect on the attitudes of those “who are on the margins and are not ultra MAGA,” The Washington Post reported Friday. “I think it’s weakened him in a massive way,” she said, according to the newspaper. “It reminds people of the drama and the four years of having to explain why they supported him…It’s not him versus Biden....

The House select committee investigating the January 6, 2021 attack against the U.S. Capitol this week received hundreds of pages of Trump administration documents after the Supreme Court allowed for their release, despite the former president’s lawyers arguing that they were protected by executive privilege.
