SAY IT PLAIN: Federal “ICE officers” should not be anonymous. And this shouldn’t be a controversial thing to say.

The Dodgers announce they are donating $1 million toward direct financial assistance for families of immigrants impacted by recent events in the region, with more announcements to come.

JDVance is a despicable racist liar just like his handler Trump! It is so disgusting that he mocked Senator Padilla! No doubt he felt he had a license to make this unexpected visit to LA after the 9th circuit ruled with Trump on his appeal! #USDemocracy apple.news/AsteT26-rSnu...

Six former CDC vaccine chairs are sounding the alarm—and we better listen. The U.S. is on the brink of losing access to life-saving immunizations. When science is attacked and trust is eroded, lives will be lost. This is not a drill. This is a national emergency.

He never tells us what the plan is on anything because there is no plan. But two things we know for sure: 1. Whatever happens that is good news will always be a result of the master plan we were not told about. 2. Whatever happens that is bad news will be Biden’s fault.

Russ Vought keeps threatening "pocket rescissions” — an illegal scheme to withhold funds approved by Congress. Republicans in Congress might as well tear up Article 1 and go home if they don't fight back, but they can’t claim surprise. Here's Vought telling me he's willing to break the law:

Hard pass.

Things are pretty fucked up if a mom‘s two sons — both members of the National Guard — had to accompany her to her immigration hearing to make sure she wouldn’t be detained by ICE.

KAINE: “You didn’t call any of the families. They learned about it from the press.” @sentimkaine calls out @petehegseth for not having the courtesy to call the families of the 🇺🇸 soldiers whose names he’s stripping from military bases to put the names of Confederate generals back.

Just some creepy armed Mad Max guys trying to gain entry to Dodgers Stadium. ICE says it wasn’t them. DHS says they were Border Patrol. But honestly who the hell knows? They’ve given permission for any psycho to put on a ski mask, point a gun, grab people & throw them into an unmarked vehicle.

Shouldn’t the NY Times headline note that this new policy breaks the law?

NEW: ProPublica has sued the FDA, accusing the agency of withholding information about the safety and availability of generic drugs critical to millions of Americans.

Tucker Carlson, of all people, showing how easy it can be to pop the bullshit bubble if you don’t mind making a liar angry should shame every White House reporter.

No baby formula has entered Gaza for four months because of Israel’s genocidal blockades. There is nothing left to feed babies and their mothers can not produce milk as they themselves are starving. There is no defending what Israel is doing. No justification.

Good morning bluesky!

The other day, The Washington Post condescendingly mocked me for stating that President Obama should speak out about what Trump is up to. Apparently, Barack Obama's thinking aligned more with mine than The Washington Post's.

ICE denied U.S. Reps. Raja Krishnamoorthi (D-IL) and Jonathan Jackson (D-IL) entry into it’s facility in Chicago.

The Tucker-Ted Cruz interview goes off the rails when Ted calls Tucker an anti-Semite and Tucker calls Ted a “sleazy feline.”

The Senate’s proposed version of the budget bill challenges the House version on several key tax measures, including a lower SALT deduction cap, a smaller boost to the child tax credit, and smaller tax breaks for tips and overtime pay. The Senate version also adds much deeper cuts to Medicaid.

OMG YES… say that‼️ @tarasetmayer.bsky.social nails it. Honestly, we’ve been waiting for politicians to catch up to where the people are—and it’s getting damn late!

🤨

Israel attacking Iran while STILL being committed to a daily slaughter of starving women and children is pure barbarism. And meanwhile western news media continues to ignore.

Actual advice from an actual lawyer. You can tell because it doesn't include molotov cocktails, satisfying as those might be.

🚨🚨The White House is pissed off about this ad so you know what to do, share it everywhere! ICE is disappearing people just because of the color of their skin! No Warrant! No Due Process! This is not who we are as Americans! #MAGAKidnappers want an all white America, fuck that‼️

It should be illegal for law enforcement to wear masks and not show ID. This makes it too easy to impersonate law enforcement and murder people in their homes.

You had me at backed by Lindsey Graham

Victor Avila, a 66-year-old legal assistant — and a green card holder for 58 years — was detained after visiting his son, who is a member of the U.S. Air Force.

You lose healthcare. They gain yachts. Keep spreading the word.

Republicans just elected a neocon who's stripping healthcare from 14 million Americans and exploding the deficit by $4 trillion to pay for another war in the middle east.

New in PN: Judge rules that anti-woke is just racism “'I’ve never seen a record where racial discrimination was so palpable,' Judge Young fumed. 'I’ve sat on this bench now for 40 years. I’ve never seen government racial discrimination like this.' *More of this, please*"

I wrote this four days ago. Today, they arrested the NYC Comptroller.

Hi, this is Meg Barnette, Brad's wife. While escorting a defendant out of immigration court at 26 Federal Plaza, Brad was taken by masked agents and detained by ICE. This is still developing, and our team is monitoring the situation closely.

It never ceases to amaze me the way people can lament the death of innocent people in one location and justify or even celebrate it in another.
