Tom Homan didn’t say much on “The Sunday Briefing.” What he did say was enough. Asked point-blank about Ilhan Omar, the White House border czar confirmed there’s an active criminal investigation. He wouldn’t say what evidence they have, or don’t. But he wasn’t backing away from it, either. “I know things are going on, but I can’t give specifics of what’s happening,” he said — then added, for good measure, that congressman or not, “no one’s above the law.” Pushed again on whether he was confirming a probe into Omar specifically, Homan didn’t dodge. “I’m confirming that ICE is, yeah,”

Welles Crowther was 24 years old, and he worked in finance, and he wore a red bandana under his work shirt because his father, a volunteer firefighter, had given it to him when he was six. He used to say it was going to help him change the world. He said it, apparently, more than once. He was a kid who meant it. On September 11, 2001, he was on the 78th floor of the South Tower when the second plane hit. He could have gone down. He went the other way. He found people in the smoke — burned,
