DURBIN: How can we give hope to people across the country who are suffering from so many diseases when our government is cutting back on that research? RFK Jr: I do not know about any cuts to ALS research D: I just read them to you! R: I didn't know about them until you told me about them

Crockett: That’s why they hired everybody from Fox because all they’re trying to do is put on a show.. I want us to refocus our attention on the American people and stop demonizing every person that ends up in ICE custody… *Applause* Van Drew: *bangs gavel*

Just catching up on the news

MERKLEY: Are you gonna launch an investigation of the reported violation of the due process of several hundred people? P: It is not for me to call the balls & strikes M: You haven't read the Constitution? It says 'all persons'...it concerns me you're not familiar w/the core concept of due process

Welp, I guess the bare-bones letter from Rubio was determined to be “facially reasonable and bona fide.” Note that this was largely expected; the standard is exceptionally deferential. This decision will be appealable up to the Board of Immigration Appeals, and then again to the circuit courts.

NEW: 5,500 military voters stationed overseas have 30 days to “cure” their ballots — or their votes get tossed. North Carolina's Republican Supreme Court just sided with a MAGA loser trying to overturn his loss.

As a green card holder, I obviously have no thoughts, beliefs, opinions or critiques of this decision.

After massive public backlash, the Social Security Administration is rolling back its disastrous cuts to phone services. This is a huge victory for the public against DOGE's rampage. Keep up the fight.

The economy is cratering, the White House has fractured the country’s longest-standing global alliances, and foreign nations are marking the end of American dominance. And Donald Trump is focused on slandering his first-term enemies.

80th day of Trump's bribery scheme operating out in the open.

Media challenge: try writing headlines without using the word "antisemitism". Stop using Trump's framing for his authoritarian actions. "Trump administration now monitoring immigrant social media" would be shorter and more accurate, since no-one really believes this is about anti-semitism.

This is big: House Republicans tucked language into the budget res “rule” that bans the House from voting to terminate Trump’s emergency declaration used to impose tariffs. TL;DR lawmakers who vote for this are officially giving up their power to revoke his tariffs until October.

Sen. Jim Banks told a laid off U.S. Department of Health and Human Services (HHS) employee who approached him that they “probably deserved it” and they “seem like a clown.”

Florida: polls are open until 7 PM in congressional districts #1 and #6. Wisconsin: polls are open until 8 PM. Get out and vote, folks!

Hillary Clinton in a new NYT op-ed: “As a businessman, he bankrupted his Atlantic City casinos. Now he’s gambling with the national security of the United States. If this continues, a group chat foul will be the least of our concerns, and all the fist and flag emojis in the world won’t save us.” 🍿

John Keker of Keker, Van Nest & Peters’ message to big firms wavering or scared: Stand up. Don’t just be scared for yourself—be scared for the entire situation, for the rule of law, and for the role of lawyers in this democracy.

This is important. More than 700 Harvard faculty, with diverse views, have now signed a letter urging the university administration to "publicly condemn attacks on universities," "legally contest and refuse to comply with unlawful demands that threaten academic freedom" and +

A Skadden attorney resigned today, citing the firm’s decision to strike a deal with Trump amid pressure campaign on law firms. “[I]f my employer cannot stand up for the rule of law, then I cannot ethically continue to work for them,” the former Skadden lawyer, Brenna Trout Frey, wrote on LinkedIn.

Elon Musk is trying to buy the Wisconsin Supreme Court so he can continue to rig the system for Trump & the billionaire class. 2026 is huge, but 2025 is right now. Wisconsin votes on Tuesday & if we don’t show up, he wins. Support Judge Susan Crawford for Wisconsin Supreme Court #JudgeSusanCrawford

This executive order is bad — cartoonishly so. But it is also a wake-up call for those who believe the danger of election subversion has passed. To the contrary, it has only just begun. And so has our fight. www.democracydocket.com/opinion/trum...

Was Tulsi Gabbard lying today, or was she lying yesterday?

hey, Sen. Ernst and Sen. Tillis- proud of your votes for Hegseth? This is on your too as much as Hegseth. You knew he was not remotely qualified

Judge Chuang: The Trump admin's "actions harmed not only Plaintiffs, but also the public interest, because they deprived the public's elected representatives in Congress of their constitutional authority to decide whether, when, and how to close down an agency created by Congress."

Sen. Mark Kelly: "I think it's probably the worst 50 days of any presidency I can think of in my life. It's been, you know, pretty much a shit show since day one" Full interview on the MeidasTouch Podcast 👇 Apple: podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/s... Spotify: open.spotify.com/episode/4UCi...

The Left: We need our own Joe Rogan and liberal podcasts and shows Me: Here are a bunch of great shows including mine that could really use your support. The Left: ….yeah but we really need our own “Joe Rogan.”

NEW: Mahmoud Khalil's motion to force ICE to return him to New York: "His very arrest and detention were in retaliation for Mr. Khalil’s constitutionally protected advocacy on behalf of Palestinian human rights." www.documentcloud.org/documents/25...

Trump ordered the Army Corps to dump water from California dams. He claims to want to help LA. This action won’t. It’s just wasting water that we need to save for farmers. I’ll be asking the Army Corps why they abandoned their strict protocols for water management.

Though the Justice Dept has deleted information about its Jan 6 prosecutions from its website, a federal judge has issued an order listing and chronicling all of the cases and prison terms Here: storage.courtlistener.com/recap/gov.us...

The DOJ's January 6 cases database was taken down last week while I was on vacation. Fortunately, I backed up the table of all the sentences before they disappeared it. You can find it here. It's up to date as of Jan. 6 of this year: archive.org/details/janu...
