WOW. A federal judge says he's going to issue a Temporary Restraining Order requiring ICE to make changes at the Broadview facility in Chicago, a facility that until January was only for stays under 12 hours "absent exceptional circumstances," but has become, in Judge Gettleman's words, "a prison."

They aren't complying with discovery because if they did, it would lead to disclosure of materials that establish beyond any doubt James' case on vindictive prosecution. The sanction for noncompliance is that the court accepts this inference. The case should then be dismissed, very quickly, too.

How Trump is Building a Violent, Shadowy Federal Police Force Trump’s DHS appointees have dismantled civil rights guardrails, protected agents’ anonymity and encouraged them to wear masks, threatened groups that stood in their way, and overwhelmed legal challeng...

Six months after ICE apprehended 47 people, including nine kids, in Hays County, Tex., County Judge Ruben Becerra says DHS has ignored his attempts to get answers:

β€œWe’re not told why they took them, and we’re not told where they took them. By definition, that’s a kidnapping.”

Dilbert creator taps Trump to get cancer drug. Others wish they could, too Like many Americans, Scott Adams had insurance problems. But unlike most people he has powerful friends on social media, and when he asked President Trump for help, he got the cancer drug he needed.

Teen Vogue Merges With Vogue.com Teen Vogue will keep its name and mission, with Vogue editorial content head Chloe Malle overseeing the site.

So upset about @teenvogue.com being absorbed into Vogue.

Teen Vogue’s political reporting has often been sharper than other mainstream outlets.

Now there will be no political staffers left.

No FBI agent or federal prosecutor will now ever dare to investigate a Republican, a MAGA figure, or anyone with any connection to Trump, his family, or his businesses. To even look in the direction of such a possible target would be career suicide.

Two of the media organizations that have really "met the moment" in national coverage are Teen Vogue and WIRED.

Along with student-run college newspapers in general. And scores of local start-ups.

The main hope for journalism (in its dark times) is the next wave of journalists.

BREAKING: Democrats just tried to pass a standalone bill to fund WIC & SNAP to make sure families don't go hungry during the Republican shutdown.

Republicans BLOCKED it. So Trump won't use emergency funds to keep SNAP running, and Republicans won't let any bills pass. Shameful.

DOJ places on leave 2 prosecutors who said 'mob' of 'rioters' carried out Jan. 6 attack Two federal prosecutors have been told they will be put on leave after filing a brief that described the Jan. 6, 2021, attackers a "mob of rioters," sources say.

Career prosecutors were put on leave, allegedly for stating the truth about J6. The Administration is working overtime to erase history. It’s incumbent upon all of us to document truth, preserve historical record, and stand firm against efforts to replace facts.

This isn’t a game. Some middle class families in Connecticut are going to get a $25,000 increase in health care premiums in a week. Democrats shouldn’t support a budget that does that to people - just as a means to pay for a giant tax cut for billionaires and corporations.

They want community members too afraid to resist out of fear that they might be next.

As ICE occupations worsen, communities have proven to be a lynchpin to resisting ICE. We must build up community solidarity.
