US group allegedly ran fake law firm and court proceedings to scam immigrants Federal prosecutors have arraigned four people in New Jersey, with a fifth at large in Colombia

You would think this would break some sort of law; that is if they cared about laws, which they’ve proven not to.

I just want to live in a country where the leader can’t enrich themselves with our tax dollars, the government does what the people want, and the wealthy have to follow the laws.

You know, like a democracy.

When there is a new president, there will be accountability. If I was a member of this administration and knowingly breaking the law/constitution…. I’d be planning my safe harbor home oversees.

Howard Lutnick continued his relationship with Jeffrey Epstein even AFTER Epstein was convicted of sex trafficking minors. Then, Lutnick lied about it. Why is he still in our government?

He should be held accountable.

Important thread from @davetroy.com:

"We have a real problem brewing with the “Board of Peace” and it needs much more attention.

1) There is no legal entity for “Board of Peace” organized under the laws of any country, meaning it is subject to NO country’s laws.

What an absolute buffoon

‘No one deserves this’: Beaverton father dies after deportation to Mexico A Beaverton family is grieving after the father, who was detained and deported by ICE, has now died.

This 53 year old man who lived in my neighborhood w/no criminal record & who had been in the US for 30 years, was detained and thrown into a cold cell for days, caught pneumonia and COVID there and deported.

He finally died.

I am so angry.

HERE'S THE ALTERNATE EVENT YOU SPOKE ABOUT THIS MORNING

A tariff “refund” mostly goes to whoever wrote the tariff check: the importer of record. That’s not the same person who paid more at the register. So refunds -- if they're offered -- might sound like consumer relief, but in reality, they're corporate windfalls.

With New Momentum, Republican States Push Broader Limits for Trans Americans In states that once focused mainly on health care and sports for transgender minors, debates now revolve around the validity of transgender identity.

The subheadline on this NYT piece is going to turn me into the Joker.

Like... this... is exactly what trans people have been saying was going to happen for years.

DoJ cases against protesters keep collapsing as officers’ lies are exposed in court String of embarrassing defeats for prosecutors as experts condemn DoJ effort to cast people as ‘violent perpetrators’

"In Chicago, of 92 people arrested for assaulting or impeding officers last fall, 74 cases have resulted in no charges; in 13 cases, charges were filed and dismissed; and five charged cases were still pending."

This, from the lawyer who successfully argued the tariff case before SCOTUS, casts huge doubt over the applicability of the statute the @POTUS is relying on to slap down a new 15 percent global tariff.
His own lawyers dismissed it in their arguments to the court.

From the Congressional Research Service: "Section 122 provides some contextual evidence that 'balance-of-payments deficits' does not refer to trade deficits." www.congress.gov/crs-product/...

Amazon's tax bill plunges after GOP tax cuts The 87 percent drop is largely due to a more generous depreciation break in the 'One Big Beautiful Bill Act.'

Trump is giving tax cuts to Bezos but none to you.

Why is Trump so desperate to revive conspiracy theories about the 2020 election?

Because he’s trying to create the pretext to interfere in 2026.

We see what he is doing and it will not work.

Ben Wallace is right. But note how Trump is doing in the US precisely what Putin did in Russia.

Wow — “The Kentucky Supreme Court struck down a law Thursday that would have allowed public funding to go to charter schools.”

Very different story here in Tennessee, where @GovBillLee and the privatizers attack public schools daily.

COVID-19 vaccination status during pregnancy and preeclampsia risk: the pandemic-era cohort of the INTERCOVID consortium COVID-19 vaccination with a booster reduces the odds of PE by 30% approaching 60% reduction among women with pre-existing morbidities.

Remember when RFK Jr. unilaterally decided that COVID19 vaccines should no longer be recommended during pregnancy?

Well, COVID19 increases the risk of preeclampsia.

And it turns out that getting boosted, either before or during pregnancy, significantly reduces the risk of preeclampsia.
