Federal forest officials began clearing thousands of acres of forest just outside of Bend, Oregon, where more than 100 people live in R.V.s and cars — a move that one advocacy group called “the largest eviction of a homeless camp in recent history.”

🚨BREAKING: Federal Court DISMISSES purge lawsuit brought by rightwing group in Pennsylvania. A victory for our clients and the voters of Pennsylvania! www.democracydocket.com/cases/pennsy...

This isn't hypothetical. The coming days are bringing higher prices and disrupted supply chains, this time not because of a pandemic or a war, but self-inflicted by our country's government under this president.

If those ICE thugs were snatching dogs…

I find this shocking! No one should be removed from the US without due process, and now Turnip also is removing US citizens. Sign the petition: www.thepetitionsite.com/493/400/629/...

Tommy Tuberville says his wife's homestead exemption established his residency in Alabama, but election records show both of them voted in Florida after that. And that's only the beginning.

Do you know how much CEO pay has skyrocketed since 1978? 100%? 500%? Try 1,085% Meanwhile, the $7.25/hr fed. minimum wage hasn't budged in 15 years and the tipped min. wage has been $2.13/hr since 1991. This is what I mean when I say the system is rigged.

Mike Waltz was fired. Further, Waltz was caught using Signal in photos taken during Wednesday's Cabinet meeting. Both before and after the Signalgate scandals, security experts at the Pentagon have warned government officials against the use of Signal — whether or not classified information is…

Trump's post is a federal crime. 26 USC § 7217.

I spoke with UN Secretary-General António Guterres today. In this time of rising conflict, Canada is ready to lead. We will build coalitions, defend democracy, and stand up for our values on the world stage. As others step back from global leadership, Canada is stepping up.

Romania detained and denied entry to russian propagandists Chay Bowes Can I just point out again how much I adore Romania in a totally unrelated statement😍

Harvard Law professor Michael Klarman gave an inspiring lecture about the need for lawyers to protect democracy. I was honored that he noted the attacks and threats aimed at me. His words serve to steel my spine and make me more committed than ever to fighting for democracy. Thank you professor.🙏

Meanwhile, in Canada…

Seems a little triggered by this story.

This is petty. The FBI has reassigned several agents simply for being photographed kneeling in solidarity with racial justice protesters in D.C. during the 2020 demonstrations after George Floyd’s murder.

These are the accomplishments?

For those curious to learn more about me… this is written from the perspective of a friend that has known me for more than 20 years. Enjoy! open.substack.com/pub/tashabur...

This is the best 100-day recap I’ve seen — and it begs the damn question: Why is his approval rating still 39%? Are folks in a coma?

@gallego.senate.gov newrepublic.com/post/194575/... This is unacceptable! We do not want Democrats to support any of Trump’s nominees! The message has been sent to them loudly & clearly! Tell them to shove their donation appeals up where the sun don’t shine until they act like an opposition party!

Jamie Raskin with the "We shall fight on the beaches..." energy that smart Dems are taking into the second 100 days. Whole (short!) statement is here, and worth reading: democrats-judiciary.house.gov/news/documen...

The American people can see the writing on the wall: trade wars increase prices and discourage spending across the board. This is NOT how you make America great. This is how you cause a recession.

AOC: We heard that we should take your word that Medicaid will be protected — that we should trust you that no one is going to be affected by this. But as a woman, the word was given that my rights would not be taken away by the Supreme Court — and that wasn’t true.

My law firm is currently litigation 47 voting and election cases in 20 states. Democracy is still on the docket and it is winning.

He was arrested for praying. Actually I think he was arrested because he shamed all those so-called Christians in the GOP.

It really takes a lot for me to say this, but the Graham tweet is genuinely a pretty offensive thing to say.

Liberal party wins.. just 4 seats short of a full majority!! (99% of vote counted) BRAVO CANADA!!💪🏼🍁🇨🇦🍁🇨🇦 www.bbc.com/news/article...

Walz: You have a situation where the Secretary of Health basically said it and was speaking with the language of eugenics, that some people just don't matter. People like Deanna's son or my son or those of you listening tonight. So look, this is a fight we must win.

Yes, this is a real tweet.

Carney: We are over the shock of the American betrayal, but we should never forget the lessons. We have to look out for ourselves and above all, we have to take care of each other.

Hey Paul Weiss associates—meet your new pro bono clients. It’s ok, the Skadden associates are getting the coal companies.

MEMPHIS — The historic Clayton Temple Church, a centerpiece of the civil rights movement, burned down early this morning… “unknown what caused the fire”…. The iconic “I AM A MAN” signs were printed in the basement

Rep. Jasmine Crockett—is the Vice Ranking Member of the Oversight Committee and she is next in line, y’all. 🔥 Let’s rally behind her because she’s the fierce fighter we need. @repjasmine.bsky.social

Sitting here inspired by what Canada did tonight. Shoutout to Mark Carney!!! Man’s a legend! Can’t wait to throw out these pathetic Republicans so we can work TOGETHER to build the strongest economies in the history of mankind!

Canada’s brand-new Liberal Prime Minister Mark Carney: “Trump is attacking Canadian families, workers, and businesses, and we cannot let him succeed.” We must all take a page from their book and stop Trump from doing the same in our country. This could be us next year, America. Let’s be ready!

Seconding everyone else: listen to the Bryan Stevenson segment of this. (It gets better and better as it goes, listen to the whole thing) www.wnycstudios.org/podcasts/otm...

I am saddened to hear about the passing of Secretary Alexis Herman—my Soror, a trailblazer, and the first Black woman to lead the Dept. of Labor. Her impact on this country and the fight for working people runs deep. Rest in power, Madam Secretary.

Judge Hannah Dugan, the Wisconsin judge who was arrested on Friday morning on charges of obstructing immigration enforcement, spent most of her legal career working on behalf of low-income people and marginalized groups. Here's what to know.

NEW: Abrego Garcia is getting a lot of attention, but many people are asking about the rest of the men being unlawfully held in CECOT. Here's what's going on with them. My latest: www.muellershewrote.com/p/so-what-ab...

On this day in 1966, my father was in Atlanta, GA, and delivered his sermon "Making the Best of a Bad Mess," which ignited hope and offered powerful advice to those facing challenges.
