NEW: A data broker owned by the country’s major airlines, including Delta, American Airlines, and United, collected US travelers’ domestic flight records, sold access to them to Customs and Border Protection (CBP). www.wired.com/story/airlin...

My thoughts on what’s going on in Los Angeles:

Jeffries: "We will not be lectured by Donald Trump and anyone in the Republican Party about issues of law and order ... he pardoned hundreds of violent felons, criminals, who brutally assaulted police officers and attacked the Capitol on January 6. That's what Donald Trump did on day one."

He lost by 82 points (91%-9%).

My latest in Joy’s House: I’m in L.A. So I can tell you firsthand that the only crises here are ICE, Stephen Miller, Tom Homan, the Fox weekend guy that’s running the Pentagon, and Donald Trump. open.substack.com/pub/joyannre...

BREAKING: Federal agents in plain clothes and unmarked cars tried to snatch 1st graders from LA elementary schools—told staff they had “parental consent.” They lied. When pressed, they HID THEIR IDS. DHS admits they sent them. This wasn’t a welfare check. It was a test run for a police state.

How now-DHS Secretary Kristi Noem felt about a president potentially federalizing the National Guard one year ago:

The resistance to the E-Verify system isn’t just about Texas Republicans’ reluctance to regulate business, a former adviser to U.S. Sen. John Cornyn said. It’s about how such a system could impact the state’s labor supply and economy. With @texastribune.org‬

NEW: Conservatives on SCOTUS give DOGE the go-ahead. A one-two punch: DOGE gets access to your data, but the public is restricted from getting information about DOGE. Today, at Law Dork:

Trump’s attacks on civil society won’t stop with Harvard and big law firms. Once a government agency is weaponized, it can target a wider range of entities for smaller and smaller acts of defiance. Here’s how we’re fighting back: americanoversight.org/investigatio...

This unprecedented Supreme Court ruling gives DOGE the green light to rifle through our most sensitive data — including our Social Security numbers, bank accounts, and medical records. The government should protect our personal information, not leave it open for misuse.

"It is up to us to get him back. It is up to us to free him because the US is a government still, for this moment, of by and for the people!" Watch @timmiller.bsky.social's speech from the Supreme Court demanding that Andry is freed now. Donate to help at freeandry.org

"It's really hard to fathom that the guy making my pizza for 25 years is a gangster and a terrorist, and the person who shows up in an unmarked car wearing a mask and body armor comes to take him away is somehow the good guy” www.wnep.com/article/news...

You can argue the merits of deporting Marcelo—a young man brought here at age 5—if you want to. But this is someone we should be proud to call American. He’s solid on every level. And if you’re really a Christian, you should be lifting him up, not casting him out. Listen w/an open mind—and heart.

The President of California’s largest union, David Huerta, was targeted and kidnapped by ICE during their illegal raids in Los Angeles. Huerta is a US citizen. He stood his ground against the regime troops terrorizing the city. #3E

Wellman: When I served in Iraq.. I heard about how Saddam Hussein divided them. Different sects fought each other. But you know -- Saddam and his family sat laughing at all of them. They divided them against each other and kept their power for 35 years. Does this sound familiar to anybody?

By the way a military parade when we’re not celebrating a war victory is something a dude who never served would do.

Proud Boys leader Enrique Tarrio tried to give a press conference to announce his lawsuit against DOJ. Much to my surprise it turned out to be the greatest press conference of all-time.

💥 @repdangoldman.bsky.social speaks out about his confrontation with “plain-clothes ICE agents” wearing masks. “You can’t require Columbia University to ban masks in order to get federal funding while you turn around and have federal government enforcement law enforcement agents wearing masks.”

ICE raids hit across Los Angeles today—and locals are rising up. This is what resistance looks like. ✊🏾 This was about an hour ago…
