I used to select Dem primary candidates based on policy. Now I will aggressively try to destroy any Dem who says "we need to look forward not backward" and fervently support anyone who says "I will see these motherfuckers prosecuted and jailed if it's the last thing I do."

HAPPENING NOW: The Justice Department has missed a 5pm deadline to file details about Kilmar Abrego Garcia's whereabouts and efforts to comply with a judge's otder to facilitate his return. Still waiting to see if they're just a few minutes behind or not planning to file at all

I'm not saying journalists should never interview admitted propagandists. There are journalistic reasons to do so. But if we do, we must be prepared to -- in fact it is our duty to -- challenge vociferously all unsubstantiated claims. Otherwise, we ourselves become propagandists.

UPDATE: The government has not, as of 5:03 pm, filed the required daily status report. It missed the deadline. But Garcia’s counsel has filed a motion for the government to show cause as to why it should not be held in contempt: storage.courtlistener.com/recap/gov.us...

Imagine being a small business with debt, that you used to import products you had manufactured in china. In the time it took to make the products, tariffs were added, that more than doubled your cost. They are crushed Are there any states offering support for their businesses ?

So all the White House political reporters are spending the weekend getting up to speed on the Abrego Garcia case and litigation related to the gulag in El Salvador so that they can prep good questions for Bukele’s visit on Monday, right? Right????????

there’s a style of reporting that’s basically like “the left hasn’t been duped by the transparently bad faith framing of the right, but I, the reporter, very much have.”

The four law firms that it was announced are now Trump collaborators -- Kirkland & Ellis, Latham & Watkins, Simpson Thacher, and A&O Shearman Sterling -- ALSO agreed today to "Disavow DEI" as part of a settlement with EEOC. Why would any new associate join such a place? Why would any partner stay?

Here's the reality: they've backed themselves into a corner. If they bring him home there will be hell to pay. It's clear that they believe that the lesser hell is not bringing him home. So we need to make that hell the worse hell. Start calling and screaming at all of your representatives now! 1/2

It’s surreal how fast the United States has fallen into a dictatorial regime. Checks and balances are gone, the president disappears innocent people into foreign prison camps, words get banned, and the Overton window shifts at light speed. I honestly wonder these days when they will come for me.
