Weiser: Antitrust laws aren’t enforced only by the federal government β€” they’re also enforced by state attorneys general. So whatever corrupt dealings or presidential whims might occur, we still have the authority to review mergers

β€˜No one deserves this’: Beaverton father dies after deportation to Mexico A Beaverton family is grieving after the father, who was detained and deported by ICE, has now died.

This 53 year old man who lived in my neighborhood w/no criminal record & who had been in the US for 30 years, was detained and thrown into a cold cell for days, caught pneumonia and COVID there and deported.

He finally died.

I am so angry.

DoJ cases against protesters keep collapsing as officers’ lies are exposed in court String of embarrassing defeats for prosecutors as experts condemn DoJ effort to cast people as β€˜violent perpetrators’

A MN protester accused of assaulting ICE officer had case dropped after vids showed no assault.

LA protester accused of assaulting ICE w/ β€œhat” had case dropped; judge said govt acted in β€œbad faith”

In Chicago, 92 ppl were arrested for assault/impeding ICE; 0 convicted

DOJ keeps lying and losing:

US farmers are about to learn that their small town strong arm politics keep outsiders in check in their rural counties, but they don’t work that way with international politics. The world doesn’t need them, and with how farmers keep voting Republican the world doesn’t want them.

The press has reported on yesterday’s Supreme Court decision as if it were only about tariffs. Wrong. It’s far bigger and even more important. Let me explain. https://robertreich.substack.com/p/the-supreme-courts-tariff-decision

I just want to live in a country where the leader can’t enrich themselves with our tax dollars, the government does what the people want, and the wealthy have to follow the laws.

You know, like a democracy.

He’s in dementia tantrum territory. That dangerous scenario where he’s been told like necessary, but not removed from power so he’s still capable of unpredictable harm. But none of it will make sense.

If you want to freak out Republicans start telling them you’re excited about what ICE is going to do when a Democrat is President and they control Congress

I’ve written about this multiple times, but MOST countries aren’t prepared for this kind of war.

I don’t think folks understand how much combat has evolved during the Russo-Ukrainian war.

It’s unrecognizable from other modern conflicts.

The President had literally months to prepare his response to the Supreme Court ruling, yet couldn't even stick with his decision on the s.122 (temporary) tariff from Friday to Saturday, raising it from 10% to 15%.

The condition of the White House matters when it’s being illegally torn down for a bribery-funded palatial ballroom with the sole purpose of cringing the Epstein class in there for a den of corruption. You don’t care about that.

We also need two more courts of appeal. The 9th circuit is absurdly large.

That’s what the $40 billion to Argentina was for. They better pray Argentina doesn’t swing back to the center or left.

Won’t save him from the hate of the People. They were able to walk down 5th Avenue, now they will need to fortify their homes, and they will miss the freedom they gave away for power.

The EU, UK, Norway, and Canada should issue an ultimatum to Republicans: Remove him from office immediately, or all economic ties get cut immediately.
The Republicans have ransacked the entire world for 45 years, including in the US. They need to be told it’s over both in the US and abroad.

New polling says Jasmine Crockett has the best chances to beat Ken Paxton in Texas.

The β€œshe can’t win” crowd might want to start updating their talking points because the voters know what’s up.

This message is for anyone involved in the administration or working for them directly or indirectly

Just stop doing what he tells you to do :)

It’s just that simply.

Disobey. Deny.

Slow things down.

Act confused.

Sabotage things.

Make a mess of the paperwork.

By the time he’s done, I’ll bet that at least a quarter of the national debt will just be money he stole.

Measles cases this year near 1,000. That we know of. Many of the current cases stem from the outbreak in South Carolina, which the administration told Mother Jones they weren’t especially concerned about in December.

As Americans face another widespread public health crisis, the pinned post on Kennedy’s X account is a video of himself working out in a sauna, shirtless, with Kid Rock.
