β€œThe motion failed in a vote of 47-53. Senators largely held to party loyalties, w/the exception of Kentucky Republican Rand Paul, who broke ranks to support the measure, and Pennsylvania Democrat John Fetterman, who opposed it…In the House, lawmakers will vote on a separate war powers effort Thurs”

I’m pretty sure arm breaking is not protected by the Speech or Debate clause of the Constitution. I wonder what @dcattorneygeneral.bsky.social thinks of the assault video?

This is sickening. That someone took the time to edit in "+100" hit points for each bomb strike is just the cherry on a shit sundae

Anne Frank died amongst tens of thousands of others during a massive typhus outbreak in Bergen-Belsen.

Camps like these turn treatable contagions and diseases into deadly epidemics.

BREAKING on MS NOW:

The House Oversight Committee just voted to subpoena Pam Bondi as part of the panel's Epstein investigation.

The vote was 24-19. 5 Republicans voted in favor.

Iran can still β€œgo nuclear” without resorting to nukes at all. Targeting each other’s desalination plants is the new Mutual Assured Destruction.🧡

Solar for me, but not for thee. That’s Tim Sheehy in a nutshell. Whatever legal authority Capitol Police have to remove protesters, I’m pretty sure those rights don’t extend to Senators to commit assault against people visiting the Capitol. I hope the Marine presses charges against Sheehy.

🚨🚨🚨Incredibly disturbing video. Senator Tim Sheehy (R-MT) joined Capitol Police in violently ejecting a Marine Corps veteran in uniform who protested the war against Iran. You can hear the bone in his arm snap around the 55 second mark.🚨🚨🚨

The US Navy could soon be escorting water tankers instead of oil tankers. People can live without oil, but they won’t last long without fresh water. If they start targeting each other’s water desalination plants, it’s all over for life as we’ve known it in the region.

Four people, with their hands up, standing behind 2 people sitting. 

The four people standing are US citizens who were detained, the two people are families whose family members were killed by migrants.

Jayapal is now introducing 4 US citizens who were detained for at least 6 hours merely for observing ICE.

Kristi Noem sent a much-delayed list of USCit detained by ICE yesterday. None of these four were on the list.

β€œThe tools the county would use are likely familiar to anyone in the county who has ever built or renovated a home. The bill would prohibit Montgomery County’s Department of Permitting Services from issuing a building or occupancy permit for a privately-owned immigration detention facility.”

America’s 20 Largest Low-Wage Employers and the Affordability Crisis - Institute for Policy Studies Low wages are a key driver of the affordability crisis. These 20 firms pay poverty wages while enriching CEOs.

NEW: Many of the largest low-wage U.S. companies pay their workers so little that they're forced to rely on public programs for basic needs. Yet their CEOs make, on average, 900x more than their median employees.

We need to crack down on this malfeasance, write IPS @inequality.org scholars. REPORT:

RASKIN: Is it lawful for federal agents to shoot and kill a person for engaging in peaceful protest?

NOEM: No

RASKIN: Is it lawful for agents to shoot someone just for driving away from them?

NOEM: No


RASKIN: Well, I'm glad you got the law right

Another pump and dump by Trump?

β€œTrump’s former Secretary of Defense Jim Mattis resigned in part because Trump moved to pull US forces out of Syria in his first term, which Mattis viewed as an unacceptable abandonment of the US’ Kurdish allies there.β€œ

Raskin: Based on what you know today, were Renee Good and Alex Pretti domestic terrorists?

Noem: What happened was an absolute tragedy.

Raskin: Were they domestic terrorists?

Noem: My condolences to their families

Raskin: You lied about them.
