It’s a great life if it doesn’t kill you. Four university degrees. Deep reading of history and law. Small business burn out. No fucks left to give.

Democrats and a federal union argue that Trump administration language posted on federal agency websites and some emails blaming a shutdown on the "Radical Left Democrats" violates a 1939 federal law.

Is Ben okay?
And release the Epstein files.
Obviously not the main point here, but it's interesting how this is framed as content rather than policy.
"BREAKING" is typically what journalists or influencers say when they have a big story -- not what government officials say when they launch "undercover" operations
Someone should start asking why we’re hearing and seeing Stephen Miller so much all of a sudden.

“Our members have a right, protected by the First Amendment, to do their jobs and report the news. They should not be targeted, injured or arrested for doing their jobs.”
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.

djt: "We have certain things in common, Jeffrey."
Epstein: "Yes we do, come to think of it."
djt: "A pal is a wonderful thing. Happy Birthday- and may every day be another wonderful secret."
And by "wonderful secret", he means raping children.

Reuters photographer Jonathan Ernst noticed that Bondi flipped open a file during the Senate hearing and he zoomed in.
Inside were her crib notes for attacking the senators.

In other words, under oath Bondi was purely a performance.
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. — This should shake everyone to their core.
