The United Nations-backed security force in Haiti, which is staffed largely by police and military officers from Kenya, has been accused of four cases of sexual exploitation and abuse. U.N. investigators said all four of the allegations were “substantiated.” The U.N. report on the investigation was dated February 16, but it does not appear to have been disclosed to the public until an independent Haitian news site called AyiboPost obtained a copy and published an expose on Thursday.

On Thursday’s broadcast of MS NOW’s “Ana Cabrera Reports,” Rep. Mike Quigley (D-IL) said that “we held out” on funding all of DHS “because reforming ICE was extremely important to every American.” And stated that we’re still in a situation with Iran that is “very dangerous” to America’s homeland.

On Thursday’s broadcast of MS NOW’s “Ana Cabrera Reports,” Rep. Mike Quigley (D-IL) said that Republicans using reconciliation to fund ICE and CBP and other things is “a real blow to rule-making and the democratic process.” And Republicans want to fund ICE and CBP for years because “They know they’re going to lose the House, at least, so they want to get while the getting’s good, never mind the democratic process. And then we’re going to have to push back under a Republican president to pull back that funding for ICE until changes are made.” Quigley said, “They want to…

On Friday’s broadcast of the Fox News Channel’s “Ingraham Angle,” Sen. Tim Sheehy (R-MT) said that “we’ve largely established air superiority” in Iran and “largely debilitated their ability to control their airspace” but there are shoulder-carried systems and “vehicle-based systems that will always evade the ability for us to detect and destroy all of them.” Host Laura Ingraham asked, “Senator, we kept hearing throughout the day that, look, they claim — the administration claimed they had near complete air superiority, almost total air superiority, across Iran, we had knocked out all of their defenses, but we obviously have not. What…

Cassidy voted for…

And could Emanuel lead the party in 2028?”We lost the plot,” Emanuel said on ‘The Fifth Column’ podcast this week. “We as Democrats nationally, from ‘Latinx,’ to defunding the police, to ‘police organizations are all racist,’ to bringing a set of cultural wars to our schools.…
