I admire her for many reasons, but I especially appreciate what she’s done for MANY thousands of American children by establishing the Imagination Library.

You can joke about Pam Bondi’s ridiculous unprofessionalism all you want, but I’m deeply shocked by it: She acts as if she fears absolutely no consequences, convinced that there will be no more political power transfers. β€” This should shake everyone to their core.

This is Adelita Grijalva.

She was elected to Congress two weeks ago, officially making her the final vote needed to force the release of the Epstein files.

She has still not been sworn in because Mike Johnson refuses to do so.

What's happening in Chicago is not normal.

The arrest of Alderperson Fuentes is just the latest example of how far Noem and Bovino are willing to go to ignore the rule of law. We must all speak up.

Oh look the party that screams β€œfamily values” every five minutes is silent when one of their megachurch darlings pleads guilty to child sex abuse. But they’ll trip over themselves to ban books and attack drag shows. Tells you everything you need to know.

I Refuse to Stay Silent. Will You? Read more here.

I refuse to let hopelessness prevail. This may just be one essay, by a lawyer few have heard of, in a newsletter read by a fraction of the public. But I will not stay silent.

Will you?

Attorney for woman shot by Border Patrol claims officer said 'Do something b-----' before shooting Body-camera video appears to contradict the government's claim that Marimar Martinez, 30, drove toward officers before one of them opened fire at her late Saturday morning in Brighton Park, her attorney claimed. A judge ordered Martinez and a co-defendant released pending trial.

Bad Bunny was absolutely GREAT (and hilarious) hosting SNL this past Saturday! And the SNL Cold Open as well as Weekend Update were among the best they’ve done in years! I was afraid SNL might be intimidated about mockingly portraying the truth, but they went all in!!

David Ellison, the head of Paramount/CBS, is a Nepo Baby son of billionaire psycho Larry Ellison, who just bought TikTok and wants to buy Warner Bros/Discovery (CNN, HBO).

He's the biggest private donor to Israel, hard core right wing Zionist and Trump supporter.

Bari Weiss is their Luca Brasi.

We covered this on today's @dailybeanspod.com. Extremely dangerous and these ICE agents should be charged with felonies.

Beachfront home of South Carolina judge, ex-senator burned to ground, injuring 3 Ex-senator Arnold Goodstein, along with two additional people, were rescued by several neighbors and paramedics from a marshy, remote area behind the home after jumping from the fist floor.

No indication yet from major media that the FBI has any interest whatsoever in investigating this apparent attempted assassination of a well-known judge openly targeted on social media by the far-right activistβ€”Harmeet Dhillonβ€”currently calling herself Assistant Attorney General of the United States

I was a skeptic about the import of the Epstein files.

But 3 invasions of cities, one military buildup outside Venezuela, a government shutdown, and so many other things meant to distract have me convinced whatever’s in there is the biggest presidential scandal in U.S. history.

I hope her home and family are protected. There was an explosion this weekend of a circuit court judges home in S.C. who tried to protect our voting info from the feds. Her husband and children and grandchildren had to jump out the windows to survive the fire.
