Kristi Noem is in Portland today. She should see the real Portland—a city that’s peaceful and filled with people who care for one another. Instead of feeding Trump’s political theater, she needs to rein in the federal agents brutalizing peaceful protesters.

SCHIFF: If a video exists of Homan taking $50k in bribe money from the FBI, will you support a request to provide it to the committee?

BONDI: You can talk to Director Patel about that

SCHIFF: I'm talking to you about it


BONDI: Will you apologize to Donald Trump?

It’s important to flood social media and news channels with news about how ICE lies, so that potential jurors see it.

Love this. Superbly done. Please send this far and wide. @donwinslow.bsky.social

Good news for Oregon:
Judge Immergut will issue a new TRO blocking relocation or deployment of federalized Guard statewide.
It protects local control,
lowers escalation risk, and
buys time for courts, oversight, and de-escalation to work.

Judge Immergut in Oregon v Trump now:

"I grant plaintiffs second motion for a TRO."

Federalized Texas and California Guard to Portland is a "DIRECT CONTRAVENTION" of court's TRO from Saturday.

Both on 12406 statute and Tenth Amendment grounds.

This is heavy.

My message to Kristi Noem is clear: Get out of Chicago.

ICE admits that up to 50% of arrests in its Chicago raids are "collateral.” These aren't statistics. They are parents taken from their children, neighbors taken from our communities. When does a "collateral" U.S. citizen child's trauma matter? This isn't law enforcement; it's a campaign of terror.

“It’s a big win for democracy.” Oregon Attorney General @agdanrayfield.bsky.social speaks out on the judge’s ruling temporarily blocking President Trump from deploying National Guard troops to Portland.

181. Courts and Domestic Use of the Military In response to adverse judicial rulings, the President's advisers and supporters are claiming courts lack the power to halt domestic use of the military. A critical early precedent is to the contrary.

Here’s the longer version of this thread:

www.stevevladeck.com/p/181-courts...

The specific provision is section 2 of the Calling Forth Act of 1792:

This victory supports what Oregonians already know: we don’t need or want Donald Trump to provoke violence by deploying federal troops in our state. I’ll keep working to stop Trump from fulfilling his perverse fantasy of making Portland the center of his assault on U.S. cities.

Well done Mr AG.

It'll never be lost on me that a particular subset of the liberal commentariat in both North America and Western Europe were deeply infatuated with this woman up until the very moment she decided to talk about that one issue you're still basically not allowed to talk about lol.

37 people arrested and American kids separated from parents after ICE raid at Chicago apartments | CNN Adults and children alike were pulled from their Chicago apartments, crying and screaming, during a large overnight raid that has left tenants and neighbors shaken.

Every moment of this is obscene starting with the ICE guy jumping out of the car with a gun pointed. ICE is out of control, too heavily armed, hostile and abusive.

Israel killed 66 Palestinians in Gaza TODAY.

I spoke to a Venezuelan woman who was arrested in this raid and later released with her 4yo son. She said agents broke down their door, pointed guns at them and made sexualized remarks about Venezuelan women. When she returned to her apartment it was boarded up and all her possessions were gone.

Asshole Trump.

In 2020, Biden won 509 counties and Trump won 2,500. But here’s the kicker: Biden’s counties generated 71% of America’s GDP. Trump won the dirt, Biden won the dollars.

A judge has recused from hearing the Portland troops case because his wife is a Democratic Congresswoman -- even though it is not "required under either federal law or the [judicial] Code of Conduct." The new judge was appointed by Trump.

We have a legal system with two different sets of rules.

Sorry we had to cancel your cancer treatment, but the Secretary of Defense had to fly all the generals in so he could call them fat.

Republicans are making YOUR doctor's visit more expensive.

Republicans are ripping health care away from 15 million Americans.

Republicans are making health care premiums skyrocket for 20 million people.

Now, they'd rather shut down the government than fix the mess they made.
