Lest anyone think Judge Murphy selectively quoted Mary Larakers—the DOJ lawyer defending third-country deportations—here's the full exchange from the transcript. storage.courtlistener.com/recap/gov.us...

This is the best thing the Mets have done since 1986.

Incredibly proud of our massive win on behalf of tens of thousands of people detained by the GEO Group in Aurora, Colorado--a case I've been working on for more than a decade. Just claiming you're following the orders of the federal government doesn't put you above the law.

We are all in danger with Trump’s idiots in office.

Exactly right.

FBI Director Kash Patel was recorded on video partying with the USA men's hockey team in their locker room in Milan — just hours after a man armed with a shot gun and a gas can was shot and killed at Mar-a-Lago, prompting an FBI investigation.

Basically fucked doesn’t even begin to cover it.

Supplies have either already changed or are in the process. No way anyone in the rest of the world trusts us again.

America is headed to economic freefall thanks to Trump.

This is the thread to read for in-depth analysis of the Trump Tariff Takedown.

@mjsdc.bsky.social is my go-to for SCOTUS review.

Boy did you ever call it! Econ numbers, tariffs …

Maybe you should travel more for the sake of the country!

Love. Her.

I think 20-yr-old Alysa Lui celebrated the 17-yr-old Ami Nakai’s Bronze medal more than her own Gold.

What an absolute class act. Love her!!!

I was literally having this very conversation with a judge Tuesday night ...

I'm sure that @judgeluttig.bsky.social probably has an opinion on this worth hearing. ;)

In 2025, Trade Deficit in Goods Reached Record High

You're saying that Trump's tariffs not only (1) increased costs on Americans (2) crippled industries that lost export customers, but now also (3) did not work at all and only INCREASED the trade deficit (probably because of 2)?!?

It's almost like Trump is a moron.

This tracks. Also, congressional Republicans will now investigate the NY subway as the largest pedophile ring in history because they have found “zero” evidence of any powerful pedophiles in the millions of Epstein documents …

Is Kash incompetent or complicit?

BOTH.

NYT: “The British authorities have moved aggressively to investigate the possibility of crimes emerging from the three million pages of correspondence with Mr. Epstein, while police in the United States have not.”

I’ll remind you that two courts found Donald Trump engaged in insurrection.

SCOTUS did NOT overrule those factual findings, only that Sec 3 was imperative.

Facts do not matter to them. It is just about whatever story they can use to rationalize their beliefs.

For MAGA: Belief > Fact

One of the few Trump lawyers with Colorado connections (Ellis, Halligan) to not potentially lose his license.

White House ballroom donations should be disclosed on lobbying disclosure reports - CREW | Citizens for Responsibility and Ethics in Washington At least 23 reported contributors to the White House ballroom should have disclosed those donations as part of their regular lobbying disclosure filings.

At least 23 companies should have disclosed their donations to Trump's White House ballroom on their lobbying disclosure reports.

Only one did.

Why separate them?

In this country we have mass shooting survivors who go bankrupt due to the medical care they needed due to being shot in a mass shooting.

More Immigrants Are Challenging Their ICE Detention Than Ever Before Immigrants claiming their detention is illegal have filed more than 18,000 challenges in federal court. This total is more than were filed under the last three administrations combined — including Tru...

A ProPublica analysis of habeas cases shows that immigrants have filed more challenges to their detention in the first 13 months of Trump’s second term than in the last three administrations combined — and the number keeps rising.

We need a term for this. What should be call this willful blindness?

Thoughts?

Ordinary Americans are not Trump’s sycophants.

Pitch Perfect

Made me actually snort laugh.

How many MAGA who cannot “understand” Bad Bunny are now experts in the intricacies of ice temperature for the luge or wind resistance in ski jumping?

The best part from a great thread on the turmoil at the @washingtonpost.com

The clicks aren’t coming because they have nothing worth reading now. I say that as a FORMER WaPo subscriber who read and relied on it daily.
