I've been rewatching The Newsroom and have seen their Blackberries constantly throughout the series. The Minimal phone looked like it had potential but fails to fill that niche. I miss my Blackberry. www.howtogeek.com/minimal-phon...

Marco Rubio just announced 10 more people were sent to be imprisoned in CECOT. They were flown there from Gitmo to be imprisoned potentially for life based not on any crime for which they were convicted, but on unproven allegations of gang membership with no due process. This is not lawful.

Tomorrow’s going to be a good stress test of the press. El Salvadoran President Bukele will visit the White House. At the press availability, every Q ought to be about Abrego Garcia: where is he now? Did US ask you to return him? etc. WH will hate, maybe try to prevent, so all should band together.

OUTRAGEOUS: Trump’s Social Security Administration will be shifting its public communication exclusively to Twitter (gosh — I wonder whose idea that was?). This comes as the agency plans to cut its regional office workforce by roughly 90 percent.
