Has Pam Bondi charged anyone for fraud yet from all those “fraud, waste, and abuse” claims by DOGE or nah?

Stephen Miller's career is dismantling the very foundation of American liberty. He treated the Writ of Habeas Corpus the bedrock of due process as a nuisance, not a right. This isn’t “national security.” It’s fascism in a tailored suit. #StephenMiller #AbolishICE #HabeasCorpus #ConstitutionalCrisis

Rep. Don Bacon, a retired Air Force general who once commanded the nearby Offutt Air Force Base, last month became the first — and to date only — GOP lawmaker to gamble with his political future by demanding the ouster of Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth.

Good morning 💙💛

Breaking news: A federal judge ruled the Trump administration exceeded its authority when it dismantled the U.S. Institute of Peace, an independent nonprofit created by Congress.

Police are reselling their SIG Sauer P320 pistols — alleged in multiple lawsuits to fire without the trigger being pulled — to the public. The latest from our friends at the @thetrace.org:

Make it make sense....

Russian invaders will talk about a ceasefire until hell freezes over. But they will never observe one. Ukrainian defenders are the real peacemakers. Russians and Western leaders who pretend the war can end without defeating the invaders are the real warmongers.

Ending protections for Venezuelans fleeing Maduro’s regime is cruel, short-sighted, and destabilizing. I’ve fought to extend TPS so families in Colorado can stay safe and rebuild their lives. Stripping it away abandons American values and weakens our communities.

Kicking millions of people off Medicaid will not make America great. Cutting SNAP benefits which feed kids will not make America great. Canceling funding for health research will not make America great.

It’s still hard for me to believe that after so many years of deranged posts like this, we’ve still never had a serious national conversation about this man’s mental health.

The man on the left is Colin Kaepernick, the man on the right needs no introduction. They both have one thing in common, they sacrificed their careers to call out injustices suffered by marginalised people. In a world full of hatred, be more like Colin and Gary.

Willing to bet a very large amount that most of that 413% rise in “assaults” on ICE agents represent unarmed people attacking ICE fists with their faces and boots with their kidneys. Because these people are lying scum.

🚨Trump is willing to cut suicide prevention research for Veterans—because it's based at Harvard. He despises those who’ve served with such a passion, he’s willing to bury the science that could save lives. All while spending $45 million on a birthday parade. Deplorable.

These same people criticize Biden for memory lapses while they are 100% delusional.

Let’s be clear. This isn’t law enforcement. It’s regime enforcement. Charging a sitting Congresswoman for doing her oversight job at an ICE facility is a calculated intimidation tactic. This is how police states are built. Criminalize scrutiny. Punish dissent. Dare others to speak up.

Good morning 🌞. 👇🏼👇🏽👇🏾👇🏼👇🏽👇🏾

This White House doesn’t care about our word, our reputation, or our safety.

Cato has published my comprehensive review of the ~240 Venezuelans the US government renditioned 2 months ago to Salvador’s notorious prison. We identified FIFTY who came legally, never violated any immigration law, but are imprisoned at the US government’s request and at US taxpayer expense.

What a disgrace by our "Justice" Dept. The family of Ashli Babbit to recieve nearly 5 million dollars.

“Sesame Street” has signed a new distribution deal with Netflix, as well as a separate deal with PBS, the show announced on Monday. This gives the children’s show a much needed-boost as it battles a financial crisis. nyti.ms/3Zswh7l

The Supreme Court has only now begun to rein him in, but it may be too little too late.

In today's edition of we f*cking told you so... The GOP’s latest budget proposal does not cut the deficit. The plan would add TRILLIONS to the deficit by 2034, locking in tax cuts for the wealthy while slashing Medicaid and nutrition assistance. 1/

Staff of the Tennessee Human Rights Commission (THRC) were informed last week that they will be laid off rather than reassigned ahead of the dissolution of the 60-year-old commission, despite being told that their jobs would transfer to a new department. Story: @sarahgracetaylor.bsky.social

#WakeUpAmerica 🇺🇸❣️🇺🇸 Everything they’re doing is either distracting from #Project2025 or enacting #P2025. Are you still calling, emailing, and writing? They are listening, there isn’t enough response yet. Don’t stop! It’s working. Keep going. Organize your neighborhood!

It is disgusting; the news outlets including the NYT, are quoting oncologists stating given the ongoing tests a president receives, it’s unlikely President Biden wasn't aware of the cancer diagnosis when he was in office. Pardon our French, that’s bullshit.

Do you know who Brad Smith is? Republicans who are dismantling healthcare right now are counting on you not to. Rep. Auchincloss breaks down who Smith is and how he stands to profit as the GOP guts healthcare.

None of the 278 men sent to CECOT have been returned. Meanwhile their lawyer has been arrested and "disappeared" in El Salvador.

But South Africans who "happen to be white" are being given the immigration red carpet. 🤬 When, not if, one of them commits a crime, will they be sent to El Salvador? 🤨 #Maddow

NEW: As Hurricane Helene barreled toward Yancey County in North Carolina, communities along the Cane River in the Black Mountains were particularly vulnerable. But there were no evacuation orders, and few grasped what was coming. By @jenniferberryhawes.bsky.social and @cgaribay.bsky.social

DEMOCRATS WOULD BE WISE TO PAY ATTENTION TO THIS… There’s a new alignment happening and it’s not about left or center. Rank-and-file Dems want two things: 📌Leaders who stand with workers 📌And who stand up to Trump If you’re not doing either, expect to get primaried. Watch…
