Breaking News: A senior Justice Department lawyer was put on leave after questioning the administration’s decision to deport a Maryland man to El Salvador.

Republicans say that judges blocking Trump’s illegal actions threaten judicial independence. You know what REALLY threatens judicial independence? When unelected billionaires try to buy court seats. Or when the Supreme Court has no enforceable ethics code.

The Senate voted Thursday to strike down a rule capping most bank overdraft fees at $5, a measure adopted late last year by the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau that had been expected to save Americans billions of dollars per year.

Incidents of travelers being denied entry into the U.S. in recent weeks have sparked concern over what to expect at airports and other border crossings. Here’s what to know.

Every time I read a story like this I recommit to be louder and more defiant.

Hanna Miller was NOAA’s 2023 employee of the year. Still, she was fired by Trump and Musk. DOGE is indiscriminately firing dedicated and hard-working people. www.kuow.org/stories/noaa...

Federal marshals forced entry into the US African Development Foundation and escorted Musk staffers inside, after agency employees resisted their entry. Once inside, they changed the federal agency’s locks. Musk staffers were seen plugging in an external hard drive and going through everything.
