DOJ attempts to evade state ethics oversight of its attorneys Legal groups swiftly denounced the department's latest attempt to avoid oversight.

The Department of Justice (DOJ) is attempting to short-circuit state bar ethics investigations into department attorneys through a new and unexpected proposed rule. www.democracydocket.com/news-alerts/...

"It is fraud" -- Neguse nails Kristi Noem for lying during her testimony yesterday when she told the Senate that DHS's $220m ad campaign starring her "went out to a competitive bid" (it did not), and tells her "I think there's gonna be accountability" (1/2)

NOEM: Our federal detention centers are held to the highest standards in comparison to other detaining facilities

McBATH: Did you just hear me? He has to crawl through mold and feces and bodily fluids just to take a shower. This is absolute lunacy and you know it.

One hundred and sixty-five children were killed in a U.S.-Israeli strike on their elementary school. This is an aerial image of the graves being prepared for their bodies.

I defy anyone to justify this.

Joe Neguse is just consistently better at this than anyone else, and it’s not really that close. bsky.app/profile/atru...

It’s looking increasingly likely that Kristi Noem and Lewandowski funneled almost 200 million in government money to a company that is run by her friend and that nobody can give an address for.

Oh, and it was 8 days old when it was awarded the contract.

Ted Lieu to Kristi Noem: “I just showed you a video with ICE officers at a school drop-off location — your refusal to commit to stopping these operations at or near schools & drop-off locations is why you're failing — so I'm going to show you this video that encapsulates why you're failing”

So vibes then.

Despite Promises, Veterans Affairs Department Cut Thousands of Roles for Doctors and Nurses

Got it. There's plenty of funding to send troops into harm’s way, but not to take care of their health afterwards. This is shameful.

“He had a feeling” is a crazy reason to start a war

Horrifying. Jesus Lord in heaven.

War is often discussed in maps and strategy.
But sometimes it becomes real in a single photograph.
That photograph showed four Americans who gave everything.

[WARNING: This is a bit graphic.]

A Marine Corps veteran protesting Trump’s War on Iran had his arm broken by Capitol Police and GOP Senator Tim Sheehy. It appears to be a compound fracture.

The White House just posted a video mixing real footage from the Iran strikes with a killstreak animation from Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 3

Johnson: US Must Wage War With Iran Because of Its “Misguided Religion” Johnson, Rubio, and Hegseth have made openly Islamophobic comments in remarks advocating for the war.

1/3

So now we’re fighting a religious war?

The Speaker of the House calls Iran’s faith “misguided” while officials frame bombs as moral destiny. That isn’t national security—it’s medieval thinking with modern missiles. I thought the Crusades ended in 1291 AD. #NoHolyWar #StopIslamophobia

NEWS: @robertgarcia.bsky.social announces that Pam Bondi has been subpoenaed by the Oversight Committee to testify regarding the Epstein files.

🔥 @jamestalarico.bsky.social : “The only minority destroying America is the billionaires. We are focused on the wrong 1%… it’s not left vs. right, it’s top vs. bottom.”

Spanish PM Sánchez responds to Trump:

"Spain is against this disaster... Govts are here to improve people's lives... It is absolutely unacceptable that those leaders who are unable to fulfill that mission use the smoke of war to hide their failure, and in the process, fill the pockets of a few."

Spain's leader with a message that should be adopted by every top Democrat

Statement from Jasmine Crockett.

He’s like a really bad actor in a 1980s B action movie that went straight to video.

Like they’re *investigating* ICE killing Alex Pretti & Renee Good?

JUST IN: Jasmine Crockett concedes and urges Democrats to rally around James Talarico, who is now officially the party’s nominee for U.S. Senate in Texas.

I'm not going to lie. I cried when I read this statement from Jasmine Crockett. These candidates worked their asses off. Ride Or Die baby!!!! RIDE OR DIE!!!

Democrats don’t have to agree on everything. We just have to agree on one thing:

It’s time to win the general.

Garcia: "The truth is that Donald Trump and Republicans have cut billions of dollars from healthcare and food assistance, and used that money to hire officers who are now terrorizing cities and killing Americans. That's where our taxpayer dollars have gone."

Let's be clear: the U.S. had a deal that could have prevented Iran from getting a nuclear weapon.

Trump ripped up that deal.

Then he started a war instead of doing the hard work of diplomacy to stop Iran from getting a nuclear weapon.

A cartoon from the 1950’s that’s more relevant than ever 💔

Governor JB Pritzker pressed the U.S. Secretary of State Marco Rubio and Assistant Secretary for Consular Affairs Mora Namdar to take immediate federal action to protect Americans stranded in the Middle East following recent U.S. military strikes and responses.

Governor JB Pritzker pressed the U.S. Secretary of State Marco Rubio and Assistant Secretary for Consular Affairs Mora Namdar to take immediate federal action to protect Americans stranded in the Middle East following recent U.S. military strikes and responses.

Americans are stranded abroad — we all have a responsibility to do everything in our power to safely get them home.

The federal government must immediately provide clear evacuation guidance and plans to leave the region.

I’m calling on the State Department to take action now.

Garcia: "I want to just show this image here. This is an image of some kids, including one of Liam Ramos's classmates. These are kids that are being held at detention facilities."
