Yet another video that shows that these masked thugs aren't after criminals. The man in the truck refused to get out. When the public swarmed in, the masked thugs left. Border Patrol or not, if they were after legitimate criminals they wouldn't just leave. Quotas. That's what they're after.

Is this legal?

Emil Bove was Donald Trump’s personal lawyer and at the Department of Justice, he has served as Trump’s chief enforcer. Most importantly to Trump, Bove is also a true believer in the Big Lie, which is exactly why Trump wants him on the 3rd Circuit. Paige and I discuss. youtube.com/watch?v=kCb9...

After cutting $1B from vital USDA programs that help food banks across the country, Trump and the GOP are gearing up to gut food assistance in their budget bill. Meanwhile, food insecurity is at its highest rate in a decade. But at least their rich donors will get a tax cut...

I remember when the “business” people swore up and down that if we banned smoking inside of restaurants, business would close down and commerce would be devastated. They were 100% certain of it. And they were 200% WRONG! These are the same people who are 100% certain that all rich people and

I love how the right is trying to scare us by saying the United States is turning into one of those European countries with great mass transit and free healthcare.

10 years ago, a Supreme Court that was starkly different from our current one made marriage equality the law of the land. Today it seems like a no-brainer that people should be allowed to marry the person they love. But not long ago, this was seen as a radical idea. www.youtube.com/watch?v=ho4Y...

"Donald Trump’s loyalty test for judges has reached new — and concerning — heights. As Trump prepares to appoint new judges, he’s made it clear that he expects loyalty to him over the constitution." - Rachel Rossi www.democracydocket.com/opinion/trum...

NEW: Congress Is Pushing for a Medicaid Work Requirement. Here’s What Happened When Georgia Tried It.

Just want to underscore that yes, on top of all the other batshit crazy components of this post, the President of the United States is also attacking the looks of a woman journalist

Corporate journalism must change or die. The first changes need to be small—or change won't start at all. A good first step: correctly report that Mamdani is a democratic socialist and REFUSE TO PUBLISH any claim that he's a Socialist or Communist because that's false and therefore not newsworthy.

Phang: Did it ever occur to the Trump administration that the reason more nationwide injunctions have been entered during President Trump’s term is because the shit he’s doing is illegal and unconstitutional?

I cannot believe I have to say this. We should not be confirming judges who advocate for disobeying court orders that are inconvenient for Donald Trump.

Floating around with mum!

Phang: You do not do the bidding of Donald Trump simply because that’s what he wants. You do not want somebody like Emil Bove as a Third Circuit Court of Appeals judge. You don’t even want him to be—I don’t know—a parking garage or strip mall lawyer, do you? That’s an Alina Habba job.

This is criminal. Shut these facilities down and prosecute the owners

This is criminal. These centers need to be shut down and the owners tried for torture and murder

This won’t succeed but it is not normal. This is very dangerous. www.democracydocket.com/news-alerts/...

Very cool

‘They’ll get over it,’ McConnell reportedly assures GOP colleagues about Medicaid cuts. “You’ll have hospitals closed, services eliminated and 20,000 jobs eliminated" if Senate proposals become law, says Kentucky Hospital Association CEO Nancy Galvagni. kentuckylantern.com/2025/06/24/t...

Boyle: For every American household that makes under $55,000 a year, they will be poorer as a result of this bill. So it's quite clear under this Republican betrayal— the poor get poorer, the rich get richer, and the middle class falling further behind. This is wrong.

This is an easy one. Disbar him.
