Dem #110, overall #111 -->
The official announcement:
Rep. Serrano becomes Dem #111 to back an impeachment inquiry. He’s the third of the day.
Dem #112 backs an impeachment innquiry:
Eleanor Holmes Norton, D.C.'s delegate, backs an impeachment inquiry. Her support doesn't matter to the overall math because she doesn't get a floor vote -- but she does inside the Democratic caucus.

norton.house.gov/media-center/p…
Dem #113 and a big one: Rep. Jennifer Wexton, frmo a tough swing district.
Wexton is from the VA district previously held by Republican Rep. Barbara Comstock. She's one of a small group of other Dem freshmen who won GOP-held districts to call for an inquiry

The others: Porter, Mike Levin, Rouda, Casten, Malinowski, Pappas, Mucarsel-Powell, Schrier.
ANOTHER BIG ONE: Rep. Engel backs an impeachment inquiry. He’s one of the six chairmen Pelosi tasked with investigating Trump. Dem #114
That means two of the six — Engel and Waters — are publicly advocating for an impeachment inquiry. And Nadler has privately advocated. The others are Schiff, Neal and Cummings.
Engel is also an outsize voice in the NY delegation, which includes a few Dems who haven’t backed an inquiry yet — including Reps. Jeffries, Lowey and Meeks.
DEM #115 is another swing district freshman. Rep. Jason Crow: medium.com/@Rep.JasonCrow…
Judy CHU is the 116th House Democrat to back an impeachment inquiry.

BREAKING: Judge Immergut has called a 10PM (ET) hearing on Trump's effort to circumvent her National Guard order by calling up California troops.
NEW: Judge Immergut could quickly halt Trump's deployment of CA guard troops to Portland, a workaround that tested her warning that Trump's initial callup was illegal and based on false claims about the unrest facing ICE.

@joshgerstein @jonesblakej UPDATE: Hegseth today called up 400 members of the Texas National Guard, with Gov. Abbott's apparent permission, to be deployed "where needed, including in the cities of Portland and Chicago." politico.com/news/2025/10/0…Image

BREAKING: A federal judge has granted a restraining order blocking President Trump's call-up of the National Guard in Portland.

storage.courtlistener.com/recap/gov.usco…Image
Judge IMMERGUT, a Trump appointee to the bench, ruled that Trump's call-up was based on false claims about unrest in Portland and that Trump's own statements were "simply untethered to the facts." storage.courtlistener.com/recap/gov.usco…Image
MORE: Immergut issued a stark warning that the efforts by Trump to make a bad-faith justification to call up the guard risked plunging the country into a form of unconstitutional military rule.

Trump now going after the rank-and-file FBI agents who responded to help restore order to an overrun Capitol on Jan. 6 — falsely accusing them based on inaccurate/misleading reports yesterday of being agitators in the crowd. Image
The reporting Trump claims supports this allegation … simply doesn’t.
NEW: Trump falsely suggested today that rank-and-file FBI agents fomented the Jan. 6 attack that a mob of his supporters unleashed on the Capitol, leaning into conspiracy theories as he accuses a second FBI director of committing crimes.

Over the weekend, we wrote about how dozens of judges have found ICE's new detention policy — seeking to lock up millions of people facing deportation without a chance for bond — is illegal.

Last night, four more judges added to the growing list: politico.com/news/2025/09/2…
One detainend man has lived in the US for 32 years with no criminal record. Judge Sherriff ordered his release yesterday: storage.courtlistener.com/recap/gov.usco…Image
Judge Boulware found that another man — who does have a criminal history of driving infractions and a DUI — nevertheless should receive a bond hearing rather than mandatory detention, in part because of some extreme factors in his case. storage.courtlistener.com/recap/gov.usco…Image

Trump criticizes Pam Bondi for not charging his adversaries quickly enough, in a Truth Social post that looks a lot like a DM. truthsocial.com/@realDonaldTru…Image
Trump reposted the message makes explicit he's referring to Lindsey Halligan, his onetime personal lawyer who now works in the WH. truthsocial.com/@realDonaldTru…Image
Most logical read of this: Trump wants Pam Bondi to name Lindsey Halligan interim U.S. attorney in EDVA so she can charge Letitia James, which he says is a "great case" and that the delay in charging her is hurting his reputation.

NEW: In a break from decades of history, the Trump administration has started detaining virtually everyone facing deportation — even if they’ve lived in the U.S. for decades.

Dozens of judges, with increasing alarm, have ruled the policy shift illegal.

politico.com/news/2025/09/2…
At issue is an interpretation of immigration law that requires detention for “applicants for admission” — long interpreted to mean people who are trying to come into the U.S.

Those already in the U.S. have been allowed to seek bond from an immigration judge.

But on July 8, ICE reinterpreted these laws to say that the millions of people inside U.S. borders are still “applicants for admission” and must be detained.

politico.com/news/2025/09/2…
This has led to indiscriminate arrests of immigrants in courthouses, routine ICE check-ins and at their jobs, even if they’ve followed every requirement imposed by judges and ICE, even if they’d previously won release from custody, and even if they are pursuing forms of legal status like asylum — and have U.S. citizen spouses, children and family members.
