New York Mayor Zohran Mamdani is calling to abolish Immigration and Customs Enforcement based on a shooting in Texas about which he knows nothing.

David Axelrod warned on Friday of possible election interference in the midterms after President Trump fired the remaining Democratic members of the Election Assistance Commission on Thursday. “All the signals are flashing red, the latest being @POTUS's summary dismissal of the remaining Federal Election Assistance Commission members,” the Democratic strategist wrote in a social media...
