ICYMI, The Trump administration is using the claim that immigrants have “invaded” the country to justify possibly suspending habeas corpus, part of the constitutional right to due process. A faction of the far right has been building this case for years. @mtredden.bsky.social

Pete Hegseth is obsessed with the keeping media from discovering his bumbling incompetence. His solution to that is a new order seeking to deny press access to DOD and hunt down employees talking to the media. The Pentagon Press Assn is fighting back. open.substack.com/pub/meidasto...

Foreigners should really approach visiting the US as we approach visiting Iran. Beautiful country, many friendly people, but the regime—the regime is lawless, and if you go you take your life into your own hands

Scores of staffers at the White House National Security Council have been abruptly dismissed as part of a sweeping overhaul that slashes the staff from over 300 to just 50. The move shifts the NSC’s role from policymaking to simply carrying out the president’s directives.
