The pair have lately been using a luxury 737 MAX jet, with a private cabin in back, for their travel around the country, according to people familiar with the matter. DHS is leasing the plane but is in the process of acquiring it for approximately $70 million. DHS has previously used other planes through the Coast Guard or other agencies for the secretary's use. The purchase would be double the cost of each of seven other commercial planes the department is also buying at the pair's direction to carry out deportations. In official documents, the luxury plane is earmarked for "high-profile deportations," the people said. Staff have jokingly started referring to it as the secretary's "big, beautiful jet," after the bill that provided the funding for it.

The DHS spokeswoman said the plane was used for both deportations and cabinet-level travel. She said it was cheaper than military aircraft for deportations and saved American taxpayers hundreds of millions of dollars. The department rarely uses military flights for deportations because they are instead using chartered planes.

the scuttlebutt about noem and lewandowski’s relationship is fun, but don’t miss that they used OBBA money to lease/buy an expensive private plane that said was for deportations but are instead using to jet around the country

I'd thought they reopened it already?

Relatedly, re: the DCA crash investigation…

To sum up: The only people acting rationally regarding the deployment of an anti-drone laser at a party balloon over El Paso was the person at the FAA who shutdown air traffic.

But the FAA did the right thing, homeland security is blasting away at random stuff, better shut down everything before they get an airliner.

HAYES: “The target turned out to be 4 party balloons… No Mexican cartel drones. Just Border Patrol agents with a borrowed experimental space laser shooting at (party balloons).”🎪

The Trump regime, folks 🤦🏼- Bondi, Duffy etc all lied about why El Paso airport shut down.🎈

But, you're forgetting, he got it covered with a Nordic wolf, which is, while not a Nazi symbol, very popular with Nazis. I'm sure it's fine.

incredible how white men are given the benefit of the doubt when anything coming from marginalized groups are treated with utmost suspicion and distorted beyond recognition

He got it in Croatia, so as a drunk soldier, it's not impossible. But he's known about it for a very long time, and covered it with a Nordic wolf, not a Nazi symbol, but very popular with them. 🙄

"Moderna's CEO announced the company will no longer invest in new Phase 3 vaccine trials for infectious diseases: 'You cannot make a return on investment if you don't have access to the U.S. market.

In terms of what cures are being lost:

- Epstein-Barr virus is perhaps the major trigger for multiple sclerosis
- herpes simplex virus causes cold sores, genital herpes, infections in babies, deadly meningitis
- shingles virus causes an intensely painful disease

Remember what I said about how when Trump falters, the media inserts a fake, imaginary version of Trump into the news instead?

This is the third time Ring has backed off of some Orwellian practice because of public outcry; in the two previous cases it went right back to the evil as soon as the uproar died down. There is no reason to suspect this will be any different.

This is so much worse than what took down Nixon, difference was that then the media did not like Nixon and wasn't trying to help him and today the media is controlled by the Epstein-Oligarch class and so is part of the same conspiracy that Trump is and buries it

random reminder that Brett Kavanaugh was accused of rape by multiple women and Clarence Thomas was accused of sexual harassment by multiple women.

Neither is in the epstein files afaik, but it seems like sexual violence against women should matter even so. 1

What Happened in El Paso? The MAGA clown show takes to the skies. In a dangerous way.

Cook County State’s Attorney has “taken no action whatsoever” against feds, new lawsuit alleges The suit seeks the appointment of a special prosecutor to investigate potentially unlawful conduct by federal agents in Illinois.

I'm suing Cook County State's Attorney Eileen O'Neill Burke for appointment of a Special Prosecutor who will investigate and prosecute crimes committed by ICE and CBP agents during Operation Midway Blitz. Federal agents do not have immunity for plainly unlawful acts.

Trump nominated a legit white nationalist to a top post at the State Department. I asked him some basic questions about his belief in the “erasure of white culture”. Watch this embarrassing, fumbling answer. Like he has never before been asked to explain his views.

The New York Times just launched a new "newsletter about the law and the courts." They are calling it "The Docket."

The Times may not care that Democracy Docket has been publishing "On the Docket" and "Daily Docket" for years, but I believe our 400,000 subscribers might.

More on this tomorrow.
