White House to seek billions of dollars in new funds for border crisis
The White House is expected to soon ask Congress for billions of dollars in emergency funding to deal with the humanitarian crisis at the U.S.-Mexico border, according to multiple sources, although none of these funds will be used for a border wall.

If Mike Pence was actually a Christian he’d be at the border embracing and welcoming migrants.

Rod Rosenstein resigning effective 5/11. A recent exchange I had with him: 
Me: You quoted Donald Trump on respecting the rule of law. Seriously? 
RR: It was a good quote. 
Me: Do you think he believed it? 
RR: [Pause] 
Me: Do you? 
RR: Those were good words. - David Corn, Mother Jones


Rosenstein May Be Called Before The House
Deputy Attorney General Rod Rosenstein is resigning, but Democrats are already talking about calling him to testify before the House Judiciary Committee.
Rep. Karen Bass (D-CA) said on MSNBC’s The Beat With Ari Melber, “Well, it’s very interesting. I think that he was very disappointing, especially the way that he handled things at the end with Barr standing behind him as he had the press conference. So it will be interesting to see whether he comes before our committee and what he has to say now that he will not be an employee of the Department of Justice.”
