In a lengthy exchange, with ICE Deputy Field Director Bill Joyce, Reps Nadler and Goldman are denied the ability to visit the 10th floor. Joyce says it's not a detention facility it's just a place ppl are housed for several days w/out beds.

So if you work at ICE, you don't have to wear a mask if you do wear the shirt you won at the Royal Caribbean Limbo Contest?

Aside from the masks did ICE have to canabilize its budget for unfiroms?Are they buying them these bro clothes get-ups for work? I jest but it's not just the masks and lack of badges where are their uniforms?

Manipulative neocons exploited Trump’s jealous hatred of Obama to convince him to rip up the JCPOA, precisely so we’d arrive at the crossroads we’ve reached today. He’s giving them what they used him for, because he’s exactly the mark they thought he was. www.offmessage.net/p/18-thought...

It's wild to realize that Trump's announcement that he's just bombed Iran could come moments after he posts an inane diatribe about something like flagpoles.

NEW: A far-right ‘Appeal to Heaven’ flag was flown above the Small Business Administration's headquarters in DC. The flag, a popular symbol for Christian nationalists, was waved by January 6 rioters and spotted at Justice Samuel Alito's vacation home. from me and @telliotter.bsky.social:

Apart from all the other outrageousness, certainly the assault charge is demonstrably false. We see the video. What Lander was doing was pretty textbook civil disobedience. He didn't hit anyone. The Trump White House theory is that physical contact with a police officer (in the broad sense) ...

Important to remember that the President does not have constitutional push back powers. I believe the law allowed the president one delay if there was an ongoing negotiation. this is just the law is voluntary now.

If you were wondering why Vance's Twitter essay read more like a pundit than a vice president, here's your answer:

This is not normal. A sitting president refusing to call the governor of a state after two elected officials were shot, one fatally, is beyond words. A typical president, regardless of politics, would pick up the phone. Offer condolences.

The regime has posted signs at Manzanar, the WWII concentration camp for Japanese Americans, asking visitors to report "negative" historical interpretations. Hard to imagine a positive interpretation but it's probably just an excuse to shut down the park. www.sfgate.com/california-p...

Everything that is happening and will happen with Iran is a direct consequence of Trump’s first-term decision to shit on American diplomatic credibility by impulsively shredding a hard-won nuclear agreement.

An Afghan man who worked as a translator for the U.S. military during the war was detained by ICE after showing up for a hearing inside of a federal courthouse in San Diego, his attorney says. He fears that if he returns to Afghanistan, he would be tortured or even killed, @nbcsandiego.com reports.

Trump's new focus on "remigration"—an idea borrowed from the European ultra-right that means forcing non-white people, even legal citizens, out of the country—portends something sinister. I discuss with @gregsargent.bsky.social on the Daily Blast podcast: newrepublic.com/article/1968...
