Schiff asks if there are notes over the meeting about defying court orders, whether Bove will provide them to the committee, and Bove says he will defer to trump and the DoJ on whether he can. He KNOWS he's caught. Same with the notes from the Eric Adams case. Schiff is doing really well here.

Ghoulish federal court nominee and current DOJ henchman, Emil Bove, is now the subject of a federal whistleblower complaint: thehill.com/homenews/adm...

BREAKING: Jasmine Crockett just completely destroyed Melania Trump while calling out Trump’s immigration policies:

And right there is one of the reasons we bombed Iran. Pretext to get Netanyahu off the hook for his crimes.

This is very bad. cc @dreanyc123.bsky.social share.inquirer.com/TlioRI [gift link]

AOC nails it: " We'll rally every corner of the United States of America until we save Medicaid and Medicare for every American until we defend social security. And we tell them who's really in charge in this country." #DontBombMedicaid

This bill is not something Americans will just “get over.” But a message to anyone who votes for this — there’s a good chance people WILL get over YOU.

A full investigation must be done into Pam Bondi and Emil Bove And who gave them their marching orders.

😳

In Washington protesters fighting to save their #Medicaid were arrested today. Story in next post/

Both Senators Blumenthal and Whitehouse make a point of order that deliberative process and attorney client privileges don't apply in judicial nominee hearings. Whitehouse points that Bove is using the privileges selectively, and doesn't even have the right to invoke it.

BREAKING: DOJ sues Orange County, CA, accusing its top election official of withholding voter records. The county offered the DOJ a path to share data while protecting voter privacy. The DOJ sued anyway. From: @yuniorarivas.bsky.social

Translation: We’re gonna make shit up, blast it out fast, and by the time the press catches on, it won’t matter. The lie will be everywhere, swallowed and weaponized by the right, locked in before the truth even gets a chance.

And then this shit just came out. When you’re making over $700k a year, gaining $12k is nothing. It’s a nice vacation, redoing the garage, giving a niece/nephew a car. When you’re making $23k a year, losing $1600 is “are we paying for food or for the house or for medical bills” territory.

🚨 #WeWontGetOverLosingMedicaid Please contact your 2 senators and 1 representative in Congress. Tell them that we will not get over losing Medicaid. Medicaid is literally life jacket for so many of us. Call 202-224-3121 Or use 5calls.org Ask everyone you know to do so as well. REPOST PLEASE.

We’re in the second Gilded Age just like the first — when America’s wealth was in the hands of a few, money corrupted politics, and working people were abused and exploited. It can be easy to feel discouraged, but the first Gilded Age teaches us lessons on how we can fight back.

Federal and local law enforcement wearing masks is just plain unamerican. It’s a cowards move, and shows the fact that the kinds of deportations happening and the methods are, shameful and unpopular. adamkinzinger.substack.com/p/why-are-fe...

Budzinski: Families making over $700,000 a year will see a boost of $12,000 almost entirely from tax cuts. Shockingly, households making $23,000 a year or less are set to lose about $1600 a year, mostly due to deep cuts to Medicaid and food assistance

Yet another example of how important grassroots battles are in building clean energy, particularly programs that directly benefit rank-and-file Americans. www.canarymedia.com/articles/sol...

Big Balls dropped.

As Trump keeps publicly bashing Jerome Powell, the Wall Street Journal reports that the president might name his replacement early in a move to undermine the Federal Reserve chair. www.huffpost.com/entry/trump-...

Mike Flynn, 8 years after bragging about stealing his 1st election for the Russians, does it again using the same ‘16 speech in which he admitted to forming an American “insurgency” by using “irregular warfare” against civilians. This time he had the richest man to help. —per x.com/jimstewartso...

I mean, it was highly irregular that Trump supporters launched baseless challenges to the election results in a number of states, and even more irregular that they attempted to overthrow the government by force after those challenges failed. Students deserve to know that!

There’s a weird thing on this website and lots of left-wing subcultures, where people love to throw around “liberal” as an insult, but from what I can tell liberals voted overwhelmingly against Cuomo and are rallying behind Zohran now.

You don't "not recall" telling DOJ lawyers to say "fuck you" to court orders. You either remember saying it, or you remember that you definitely didn't say it. Emil Bove saying he doesn't recall means he definitely said it, and there's a roomful of people that can testify to it.

Nothing screams 'freedom' quite like arresting people in wheelchairs protesting Medicaid cuts.

“The soft power suicide of the U.S. will be incomprehensible to future historians who will be dumbfounded in their attempts to explain why the global leader voluntarily wrecked one of its greatest national assets...” www.nytimes.com/2025/06/24/b...

You must read this. This is the way. open.substack.com/pub/robertre...

Under grilling by Jon Ossoff, Russ Vought repeatedly refuses to admit that it was a mistake to fire the federal employees who oversaw the safety of the nuclear stockpile (a mistake the administration acknowledged when they had to scramble to hire them back)

I hope he stays kind. I hope he stays brave. I hope he has a ton of bodyguards.

Time to pick a side, America. Is this the future you want for us?

#GVerse #BreakingNews - At the Russel Senate Office building Medicaid activists in wheelchairs were arrested by Capitol police for staging a sit in. Their banner was snatched and their wrists tied with zip ties. #WeWontGetOverLosingMedicaid

Call your Reps Shut it down

Peters: "Mr. Vought -- Can you show a little bit of respect here? I don't need you to answer questions I'm not asking. Please. I'm trying to be as civil as I can."

It’s been about 30 years since I was an Assistant U.S. Attorney. And maybe it’s just me, but I think I would remember telling my fellow prosecutors that we should ignore a court order and tell the court “fuck you.”

No, they don’t.

I have been receiving a ton of emails about the ethics report showing Stephen Miller owning stock in Palantir - lining his pockets off his unlawful mass-deportation agenda. Tomorrow I'll be interviewing the author of that report. Subscribe for free: podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/t...

The BBB is “Robinhood in reverse.” Make sure your reps have heard from you on this regardless of party. 🙏🏼 @ellecordova.bsky.social

This won’t succeed but it is not normal. This is very dangerous. www.democracydocket.com/news-alerts/...
