ABQJournal.com Home • 9 hours ago
WASHINGTON - Three Senate Democrats filed a lawsuit Monday arguing that Acting Attorney General Matthew Whitaker's appointment is unconstitutional and asking a federal judge to remove him.

My San Antonio • cached • 9 hours ago
WASHINGTON (AP) - In an echo of his campaign rhetoric, President Donald Trump is back to portraying himself as the Paul Revere of the terrorism age - the one who told the country Osama bin Laden was coming. Trump did not explicitly tie that threat to al-Qaida and thought an attack might come through the use of a miniaturized weapon of mass destruction, like a nuclear device in a suitcase or anthrax. There was less to his foreshadowing than he states.

Trump sets off storm by criticizing retired Navy admiral | Albuquerque Journal
ABQJournal.com Home • cached • 8 hours ago
WASHINGTON - President Donald Trump has ignited a firestorm of criticism and charges that he is politicizing the military by faulting a war hero for not capturing al-Qaida leader Osama bin Laden sooner. McRaven previously had drawn widespread attention for lambasting Trump for repeatedly calling the news media the “enemy of the people.”. Leon Panetta, who was CIA director during the bin Laden raid and later served as secretary of defense, said Trump owed an apology to McRaven and to all of those in the military and intelligence agencies who played a role in tracking down bin Laden and carrying out the risky raid into Pakistan.
