An attorney representing victims of Jeffrey Epstein accused the government of holding back information on his associates. She said the government has yet to disclose information collected from Epsteinโ€™s computers and said thereโ€™s been a lack of accountability for the financierโ€™s lawyer & accountant.

HAPPENING NOW: Judge Xinis comes in hot this morning after DOJ fails to produce the ICE detainer to keep Kilmar Abrego Garcia locked up.

She won't take DOJ's word for it that it exists.

"You have taken the presumption of regularity and youโ€™ve destroyed it in my view," she says.

I hate when I go to bed early on a Saturday night and wake up Sunday morning only to discover weโ€™ve gone to war in the Middle East without the consent of Congress. ๐Ÿ˜ก

Wow so youโ€™re telling me everyone who cheered on the Iraq war is on board with this now too? And so are the people who opposed the Iran nuclear deal and killed it?

Youโ€™re kidding.

If Democrats truly want to appeal to young men, they should probably start presenting themselves as the party that definitively *wonโ€™t* draft you into an illegal war.

BREAKING: DOJ Files Anti-Voter Lawsuit in North Carolina
YouTube video by Democracy Docket BREAKING: DOJ Files Anti-Voter Lawsuit in North Carolina

The Dept. of Justice has filed its first voter suppression lawsuit aimed at disenfranchising voters. This is a critical juncture for democracy.

Paige and I discuss the implications and how it echoes claims made by failed state Supreme Court candidate Jefferson Griffin. youtu.be/8XEW-Ga428M

I donโ€™t know how many times we have to say this, but the U.S. government is not a business and shouldnโ€™t be run like one. Itโ€™s a serviceโ€”for the people.

Is this a case of one death being murder but 300,000 being a statistic? It's hard to contemplate murder on that scale but if you know your actions are going to lead to the deaths of hundreds of thousands but you do it anyway, what else can you credibly call it?

There is one place, however, where Musk, with the help of his minions, achieved his goals. He did indeed shred U.S.A.I.D. Though a rump operation is now operating inside the State Department, the administration says that it has terminated more than 80 percent of U.S.A.I.D. grants. Brooke Nichols, an associate professor of global health at Boston University, has estimated that these cuts have already resulted in about 300,000 deaths, most of them of children, and will most likely lead to significantly more by the end of the year. That is what Muskโ€™s foray into politics accomplished.

Musk should be asked about this in every interview he does now and forever. To ignore it is a dereliction of duty.

Every year on Memorial Day, I share this video of French caretakers who take sand from Omaha Beach in Normandy, and scrub them into the letters to give them the gold coloring.

They do this for all 9,386 US soldiers who died.

France also gave us this land as American soil.
