Abrego Garcia's Lawyers: "This Case is Not Over." Lawyers for Abrego Garcia slam the government for trying to weasel their way out of contempt.

Did you know that when Pam Bondi said "We presented El Salvador with an arrest warrant and they agreed to return him," she was admitting she failed to follow the extradition process, proving he could have been returned at any time? My latest: www.muellershewrote.com/p/abrego-gar...

Confirming, as was obvious from context already, that this wasn’t a one-off. They are routinely using Signal to evade statutory record retention requirements.

The best time would have been before now, but this is now a really great time for some journalists to stop giving a shit about access and hold these assholes accountable for blatantly lying through their teeth about a national security breach.

Trudeau: "We're probably gonna keep booing the American anthem. But let me tell Americans: we're not booing you ... we're booing a policy that is designed to hurt us. And we're insulted ... we're gonna fight. And we're gonna win."

Evil has never been presented as evil. It always puts on the false cloak of goodness and morality, and does evil things

i think an important thing for people outside the US to understand is that elon musk seized control of the government today and most americans don’t even realize it happened.

This is what the government did with 120K+ Japanese Americans in 1942.

I know. I was there in those camps.

It’s important to know that a lot of productive activity is happening in person and offline, too.

Not all of it can be broadcast online, but we’ve had hundreds of people showing up to our trainings, mobilizations, and more.

Keep going. Tyranny is eroded by a sea of small acts. Everything matters.

Yes, this administration is dangerous and cruel, but they are also shockingly dim and incompetent.

Opportunities are everywhere.

Make everything as hard as possible. Resist every demand. Refuse entry without a warrant. Don’t take the buyout. Their problem solving skills are πŸ“‰

Wow. Caroline Kennedy breaks her silence on RFK Jr in a message to Senators: β€œWe grew up together. It’s no surprise that he keeps birds of prey as pets because Bobby himself is a predator. He enjoyed showing off by putting baby chickens & mice in a blender to feed to his hawks.”
