Plus, Ben Franklin on impeachment vs. assassination.
is the title of a classic short story by Stephen Vincent Benét, but it might also serve as an epitaph for my two favorite sports teams, soccer’s, each saddled with the worst record in their respective leagues, dead in the water with the calendar still reading April.
To paraphrase those modern poets,Donald Trump ’s inhumane mass-deportation agenda. It wasn’t only that some 2,000 masked marauders from U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement and Border PatrolIt was also because, from frigid New Hampshire to the Arizona desert, top officials with the Department of Homeland Security for any giant empty warehouse they could find.
Their scheme was to open — and there’s just no other word for it — massive, bleakto detain thousands of desperate immigrants arrested in raids like those in greater Minneapolis, and after that in an expanding list of American cities. Still, at a moment when the steel wheels of American dictatorship were rolling fast, the ICE warehouses felt like aTake a look at Williamsport, Md.
, a quaint rural community near Hagerstown in the western half of the state where Trump is popular — orof the county commission that had passed a resolution welcoming ICE. The warehouse neighbors soon found support from politicians like Maryland Attorney General Anthony Brown,on a main local highway reading: “ICE Camp is planned 5.6 miles ahead. Not in our community. ” Other protesters traveled to Baltimore tothe proposal from the original 1,500 beds to only 563.
But it’s possible now to wonder if this Maryland detention camp will ever open for business at all. Or, in the wake of dozens of nationwide protests last weekend under the banner “You may have heard that there’s new management at DHS, where Secretary Markwayne Mullin — the former Oklahoma senator who replaced the besieged Kristi Noem — has nowto buy 24 sites across the country, even as some of the dozen or so already purchased are either shrunk or face new scrutiny.
The unspoken but best part of this news is that the warehouse scheme hinged on an ever-increasing number of ICE detainees — which reached an all-time high of more than 70,000 during the Minnesota raids, but has been precipitously dropping at a time when the Trump regime had once expected those numbers to skyrocket.in early April was down to just over 60,000.
Some of those detainees were released while others have been deported, unfortunately, yet the decline means they aren’t being replaced with new arrests.after the Minnesota raids were scaled back, the tactics of grabbing landscapers or delivery drivers off the streets instead seem to have died down with the departure of Noem, herIt turns out that Trump and his MAGA minions are not able to defy the laws of political gravity after all. Citizen dissent — from Minnesota to Maryland to dozens of other locales — still matters, even in a fading democracy that is going to hold an election for November, with Trump seemingly too unpopular to suppressto buy those warehouses, with no public debate or approval process.
All of them are currently empty, and one hopes — given theat ICE’s current detention sites — that they stay that way. But...where’d all that taxpayer money go? Are we ever going to get a single dime of it back? , DHS — in one of Noem’s last official acts before her unceremonious departure — paid a whopping $145 million for a warehouse that had been tax-appraised the year before at just $97 million.
Something similar happened atdropped a bombshell report that several DHS contractors — including the nation’s best-known private prison company, the Geo Group — complained to the White House that Lewandowski demanded to be paid in return for awarding those contracts from the department. Those rather shocking allegations — which sure sound like straight-up bribery — have not been substantiated, and Lewandowski has branded them “absolutely false.
” But the reports, against a backdrop of known contracting irregularities and apparent overspending by DHS, scream out for an investigation. Like most seemingand possibly the Senate in January should promise voters they will haul Lewandowski, Noem, and some contractors before the bright lights of committee hearings. Over Trump’s 10 years in politics, his regime has increasingly blurred the line between crimes against humanity and more basic offenses against the U.S. Criminal Code.
Just look at Trump’s illegal war in Iran, which has resulted inabout this, but it bears repeating: This Friday, May 1, is the “No Kings”-sponsored May Day Strong event, which is now branded as “a day of disruption”the millions of us who don’t want America to be a dictatorship are asked not to shop, and — if possible — not to work or go to school.

You can find the action, reportedly, on TNT Network. note: this would be the annual White House Correspondents’ Dinner, interrupted this Saturday by a gunman: The short answer is “no” — this solid B-lister who’s never covered politics from inside Washington, or wanted to, has never been invited, and if I miraculously was invited now I would decline, maybe even politely. But there’s also an asterisk.
When I worked multiple stints for Newsday covering state legislature sessions in Albany at the end of the 1980s, there was a statehouse correspondents’ dinner attended by the governor at which the reporters actually did comedy skits! It was a different time. Groups that blended Democrats, Republicans, journalists, and lobbyists went out drinking every night. The partisan divide was a mountain creek, not the mighty Hudson River.
Was all this too chummy, and ethically wrong? Maybe, but this was also before large swaths of one political party went fascist, so... , which hits U.S. shores in about six weeks, shares my dismay and inner conflict over the corruption of the planet’s greatest sporting event. Janette McClelland says she’ll be watching baseball or the WNBA instead.

And mention Trump as much as possible. ” Anne Marie Pendergast is also aghast at the corruption and run-amok capitalism, but adds that “s lifelong soccer fans we will watch every minute, but from afar and with the hope that the players and fans enjoy the beautiful game we love in spite of all that.
” 📮 This week’s question: Three days later, the media still can’t stop talking about that shooting as the president attended the White House Correspondents’ Dinner. They plan to stage this bizarre elite so-called “nerd prom” all over again in less than a month. Really?
Should they? PleaseHistory lesson: The wild reason Ben Franklin argued for impeachment suddenly becomes relevant, could be brought back to life and introduced to the current House Minority Leader Hakeem Jeffries, he’d have a lot of questions. Like, what is that bizarre glowing object in your pocket that beeps occasionally? Also, what are you trying to do, get Donald Trump killed?
, when delegates arrived in Franklin’s hometown to debate a new constitution for the fledgling United States of America, and tinker with bold democratic ideas that were still being honed in a world largely ruled by kings.that one thing that would set the American Experiment apart would be a way to remove a corrupt leader from office — an impeachment process modeled after Franklin argued at the constitutional convention that impeachment is needed to deal with a president who had, in his immortal words, “.
” Without a constitutional process to remove such a tainted president, he argued, history had shown that citizens would find the only alternative for removal would be to take matters into their own hands: assassination.that killing government officials charged with misconduct meant the accused would “not only deprived of his life but of the opportunity of vindicating his character. ” That proved sage advice, since all three presidents who’ve been impeached so far But flash forward 239 years, and America has exactly what Franklin feared: a president, in Donald Trump, who has rendered himself obnoxious.
The president’s many high crimes and misdemeanors are rehashed in this space on a weekly basis, and, Trump’s impeachment by the House’s current slim GOP majority is all but impossible. But now Jeffries has shocked some political observers by declaring that“Of course not,” Jeffries said dismissively when asked this weekend about whether impeachment is on the Democratic agenda — appropriately during an interview on the conservative Fox News Channel.
“I’ve made clear from the very beginning that our top priority is going to be to drive down the high cost of living. ” This despite the fact thatof essentially being an obnoxious sexual predator and a corrupt president, decided to take matters into his own hands — exactly as the ancient Philadelphian once predicted.
— accused with attempting to assassinate the president after racing toward Saturday’s White House Correspondents’ Dinner with a long gun — was wrong and morally repugnant, and yet it’s right to fear that political violence will only become more commonplace when elected leaders refuse to do their constitutional duties. Franklin, famed for his wisdom, saw all of this coming. If Jeffries is serious about becoming House Speaker, he needs to start reading his history.
Just two years ago, I felt like I was howling into the wind when I urged readers to look more closely at the violent police response to the then-widespread campus protests over Israel’s increasingly deadly military campaign in Gaza. Beyond people’s emotional and often deep-seated feelings about Israel or Palestine, I argued that the willingness of college administrators and many governors — including some Democrats — to suppress campus speech could lead to disaster if Donald Trump won that year’s presidential election.
I wrote: “By the time a returned-to-the-White-House Trump makes good onand tanks to put down any Jan. 20, 2025, inauguration protesters, America might be numb to such images.
" Ponder how this all turned out when you read: “Last week, I sent out a Mayday alert, literally. My Sunday column previewed the next protest from the “No Kings” movement that is taking place on Friday —in which anti-Trump protesters are urged to avoid shopping, working, or going to school. I looked at both the challenges and the case for escalating the nationwide demonstrations.
