1/ The Trump administration plans to use a fast-track deportation process to bypass immigration judges in order to quickly deport undocumented immigrants who have illegally entered the U.S. within the past two years. Previously, the policy for “expedited removal� had been limited to migrants caught within 100 miles of the U.S. border who had been in the country for less than two weeks. The Department of Homeland Security defended the shift, saying the new plan will ease the backlogged immigration courts by allowing ICE to deport unauthorized immigrants without placing them in “timeconsuming removal proceedings.� Expedited removals will take effect immediately. (Washington Post / CBS News / New York Times)
2/ House Judiciary Chairman Jerry Nadler said there is “very substantial evidence� in Robert Mueller’s report that Trump is “guilty of high crimes and misdemeanors.� House Intelligence Committee Chairman Adam Schiff added that it was “clear� that the Justice Department feels bound by an Office of Legal Counsel opinion that prevents indicting a sitting president, alleging that Trump “is an essentially unindicted co-conspirator.� The House Judiciary Committee would be in charge of leading impeachment proceedings if the House decided to move forward with articles of impeachment. Mueller is scheduled to testify on July 24th in front of both the House Judiciary and Intelligence Committees in back-to-back public hearings, where he will answer questions about the contents of his report and his 22-month-long investigation. (CNN / Politico / Washington Post)
3/ Trump doesn’t think Mueller should be allowed to testify before Congress about his ties to Russia and possible obstruction of justice. Trump tweeted that “Mueller should not be given another bite at the apple,� because “in the end it will be bad for him.� Trump also complained that the “phony Democrats� in Congress “have done nothing but waste time on this ridiculous Witch Hunt,� and again called for investigations into Hillary Clinton instead of himself and his campaign.
