GOP lawmakers say Obama DHS whistleblower Philip Haney was ‘murdered’ lifezette.com/2020/03/gop-la… via @LifeZette
Reps. Louie Gohmert (R-TX) and Steve King (R-IA) each gave speeches on the House floor to refute claims that Haney committed suicide.
“I’m standing on the floor here saying, Madame Speaker, I don’t believe that Phil Haney committed suicide,” King said.
“I expect that we’re going to get a thorough investigation. The evidence that is coming to me indicates that he was murdered.”

“Phil often said, ‘I would never commit suicide,'” King continued, adding that he had been close friends with Haney.

Trump Administration Deploying ‘Crisis Response Force’ At Southern Border In Wake Of Court Decision dailycaller.com/2020/03/06/cbp…
Customs and Border Protection (CBP) announced Friday that roughly 160 active duty soldiers will be deployed at two ports of entry along the southern border to assist the agency. Around 80 personnel will be sent to El Paso, while another 80 will be sent to California.
The administration’s decision to deploy military police support stems from the 9th Circuit Court of Appeals’ decision to block Migrant Protection Protocols — a program that keep thousands of asylum seekers in Mexico — in California and Arizona beginning March 12.

Chief Justice Roberts issues rare statement rebuking Schumer for his Gorsuch/Kavanaugh comments. “Justices know that criticism comes with the territory, but threatening statements of this sort from the highest levels of government are not only inappropriate, they are dangerous.”
Schumer spox: “For Justice Roberts to follow the right wing’s deliberate misinterpretation of what Sen. Schumer said, while remaining silent when President Trump attacked Justices Sotomayor and Ginsberg last week, shows Justice Roberts does not just call balls and strikes.”
Schumer initial comments: "I want to tell you Gorsuch. I want to tell you Kavanaugh. You have released the whirlwind and you will pay the price. You won't know what hit you if you go forward with these awful decisions.”

McConnell just said something about going to eat later and now the chief justice is being passed the question

The first question is by the house to the Chief Justice asking that the defense be reassured that reality does indeed exist
Zoe Lofgren makes fun of the childish defense of his anti-intellect by a Perverted Harvard professor and Pat Robertson's realdoll

she reminds them that hitting themselves in the face with a gigantic pipe wrench is not the best way to remove one bad tooth
