So now ICE & Border patrol thugs are going to go incognito in a fancy suit. They need to wear a uniform that indicates what their so-called job is. Police officers on duty have to wear a police outfit; the National Guard, their outfit. The Trump crew constantly creates various forms of camouflage.

Exclusive: Secret Service will offer tailored suits to new protective detail agents | CNN Politics New Secret Service protective detail agents are about to get a wardrobe upgrade, courtesy of taxpayers.

What a waste of our money.

What problem is Trump's new global 10% tariff meant to solve?

If it's about leverage, ask: How much leverage do you get from a tariff that disappears in 150 days?

If it's onshoring: Who builds new factories based on tariff that disappear before the factory is built?

It's a tax. That's all it is.

Yes! And it can't come soon enough!

Judge Goodwin: "An anonymous government is no government at all. It cannot be held accountable. A masked agent freely uses force without justifying his actions, and the public cannot name him to challenge his conduct. A regime of secret policing has no place in our society."

👀The federal judges in West Virginia, where ICE has been pulling over and detaining people on the freeway, are literally screaming about ICE's tactics.

"It is an assault on the constitutional order," Judge Goodwin says. storage.courtlistener.com/recap/gov.us...

A war foretold: how the CIA and MI6 got hold of Putin’s Ukraine plans and why nobody believed them Drawing on more than 100 interviews with senior intelligence officials and other insiders in multiple countries, this exclusive account details how the US and Britain uncovered Vladimir Putin’s plans ...

Shaun Walker gives us an invaluable second draft of history here, reviewing the months before Putin green lit the Russian invasion of Ukraine. How did US intel gain such remarkably clear insight into what was happening? What strategy did they settle on? www.theguardian.com/world/ng-int...

I’m shocked.

Mind-boggling that the same day South Korea's former leader is sentenced to life in prison for leading an insurrection

—and the same day British police arrest a prominent royal over allegations of sick Epstein predation

—our own insurrectionist-leading predator is thus mocking the rule of law:

We know that Trump is going to repeat the “I’ve been exonerated on Epstein” line every single day forever because that’s what he does.

Would it be totally outrageous for someone then to simply ask him who it was that exonerated him so we can get some clarification on that?

Utenriksminister Espen Barth Eide - Radio Mørch - NRK Radio – Ville du backa meg, utenriksminister? Espen må svare på mye forskjellig, også om han ville utlevert Erlend om ham gjorde det Assange gjorde.

Near the conclusion of the initial meeting of Trump's Peace Council, he stated that Norway had agreed to host the next session. A few minutes later, during an interview with NRK, Norwegian foreign minister Espen Barth Eide, was asked about this. Untrue, he said.

You are spot on the "entire Ukraine-Russia negotiations" are a sham, a blatant sham & have been since way back. Their "negotiations" can be described better as a strong-armed, bullying, belittling tactic meant to totally demean, ignore the wishes of Zelensky & Ukrainians to be a sovereign nation.

Only once people admit that the entire Ukraine-Russia negotiations process being orchestrated by the USA/Trump is first and last a sham designed to help Putin as much as possible (and provide massive payoffs to the administration), will people be able to discuss it honestly.

Trump has given us no case for this war. What is it to accomplish? What are its objectives? How will we know if it is a success or a failure? But Rupert Murdoch and the usual MAGA talking heads, like Canadian-born Ted Cruz, are all in for this war, and indeed, any war.

For ICE to build concentration camps quickly, they're leaning on this Dept. of War program WEXMAC TITUS helps contractors bypass the traditionally lengthy government contract bidding process

NEW — An obscure Navy contractor program is making Trump’s plans to quickly build out and supply immigrant concentration camps around the country a reality.

Here I explain WEXMAC TITUS, an acronym you need to understand:

Pope Leo Rejects Trump’s Gaza “Peace Board” Invitation After his top Middle East envoy denounced the plan as a “colonialist operation,” the Vatican formally declined to participate in Trump’s pay-to-play Gaza “Peace Board.”

Pope Leo XIV has formally declined President Trump’s invitation to pay $1 bn and join Trump's Gaza “Peace Board” — the explanation for this decision was furnished by Cardinal Pizzaballa, who condemned the initiative as a pay-to-play exercise in neocolonialism.

By explicitly mentioning and siding with the mayor and city leadership, this statement is also a nice little fuck you to DHS

Of course they won't, because ICE targeted him after he stood up to them previously. It was a premeditated murder.

Followed up with "not even a lawyer" which is the part that stuck with Raskin.

And "not even a lawyer" Raskin said the "not even a lawyer" part is the comment he heard.

I'm at their second benefit show right now. (They just opened their 3rd set with "American Idiot.) These white suburban parents are wearing t-shirts with slogans like "RADICALIZED BY BASIC HUMAN DECENCY" and "NO ONE IS ILLEGAL ON STOLEN LAND BUILT BY STOLEN HANDS." (4/?)

Epstein victim Virginia Giuffre: “I was trafficked to a lot of types of different men — billionaires, royalty… he used me as a form of blackmail so these people would owe him favors.”

Bondi told Raskin he was a washed up lawyer, not even a lawyer. When Raskin talked about it later he said he didn't catch the first part, but he heard the last part "not even a lawyer."

The pace at which US wealth concentration is rising is simply staggering

The concentration of AI wealth into the hands of a few tech barons + plutocratic capture ==> unchartered territory

"In one exchange, Rep. Raskin bellowed at her to stop overtalking members of the committee. and Bondi muttered. "You washed-up loser lawyer! Not even a lawyer."

That’s kinda ominous.
