not sure there's a more embarrassing profession than ICE agent. Oh, you dress like a soldier to abduct sous chefs and throw flashbangs at protesters? Get a real job you loser

I loathe Musk as much as anyone else but for a sitting president to openly threaten a private citizen over what political donations he or she chooses to make is a reminder of how authoritarian this country is becoming by the day - by the hour even!

The Trump administration's spending cuts and restrictions on foreign students are triggering a brain drain — and American scientists are panicking. U.S. researchers' fears are coming true. America's science pipeline is drying up, and countries like China are seizing the opportunity to surge ahead.

In an act of integrity and resistance, a supervisor in the Nashville federal prosecutor’s office resigned over how the Abrego Garcia case was being handled. The charges are bogus, pure political theater meant to justify a wrongful abduction.

If Barrack Obama had given a crackhead with multiple baby mamas access to the IRS secure records he would have been impeached and removed by midnight.

This is who put USAID “in a wood chipper,” slashed jobs across the govt to leave our health services, our national parks, our education system, Social Security & Medicaid in shambles. Oh, and he and his minions have all your private data. Well done, Speaker Johnson. Folks it’s all about 2026.

While normally a fan of fiction, even outlandish fiction like this, I find this particular fiction author, while certainly prolific, rather dull as he lacks both imagination and craft, leading him to publish relentless repetition.

Raskin: This is a gangster state. This is not basically a legitimate government that is sometimes doing corrupt things. This is an essentially corrupt enterprise. It's like watching The Sopranos. Every day, they get up and they try to figure out how to plunder and pillage the people

A drug addict usurped congressional power, and unilaterally gutted US soft power. Members of the administration knew about, and were disturbed by, his drug use (WSJ). Isn’t this a cover-up?

Phang: If you see claims that those convictions have been overturned on appeal — it’s bullshit. They have not been overturned on appeal. I have no idea—strike that—I have every idea where that comes from. It comes from stupid, far-right people who don’t know how to read and don’t know the law.

Elon Musk is leaving his government position after weeks of declining influence and increasing friction with both President Trump and shareholders of his own private companies. He created disruption and fear before giving up on revamping government. But his companies will now face less oversight.

RFK & Dr. Oz want to relocate ostriches w/bird flu to Florida. They say it's an opportunity to study infected birds in a natural environment. Biosecurity, anyone? I remember when that was their stated reason for closing the top BSL4 lab studying dangerous pathogens. www.nytimes.com/2025/05/28/w...

Today the Supreme Court cleared the way for the federal government to transfer thousands of acres of national forestland including a Native American sacred site, to Resolution Copper a mining company owned by Rio Tinto and BHP. The land holds deep spiritual significance for the Western Apache tribe.

It’s now hour 15 of the Rules Committee hearing and we’ve had enough of Republicans’ “magic math.” So, let me put this plainly — the Republican budget will increase the national deficit by trillions of dollars. Period.

They say it can’t be done, but here we are, California is generated 106% of California’s entire state electricity demand from renewables. California has a population bigger that 154 other countries around the world. It’s the 4th largest economy, in the world. Let that sink in. #energysky #greensky

This odd, dangerous provision in House-passed budget bill is being overlooked. It'd apparently let admin. defendants avoid contempt enforcement stemming from any disobeying by them of preliminary injunctions & temp. restraining orders in instances where plaintiffs didn't provide security bond [1/2]

Hard not to notice that ICE isn't breaking up drug rings or gangs (because we would ABSOLUTELY hear about it if they were), but instead are dressing up like bank robbers and doing the laziest shit possible, like hanging out at immigration court or grabbing people for busted taillights. Worthless
