Prosecutors Began Investigating Renee Goodโ€™s Killing. Washington Told Them to Stop.

NYT confirming MS NOW reporting:

Prosecutors began investigating Renee Good's killing, then Washington told them to stop.

Federal prosecutors had a warrant to collect evidence from Good's vehicle, but Trump leaders said to drop it. About a dozen prosecutors have since departed.

Catholic brothers are making a Kansas City ICE facility possible. Will institutions they support care? Two Kansas City brothers are big Catholic donors. But now that they're also making a vast ICE detention facility possible, will the institutions they support look away?

From jump, the moment Jasmine Crockett entered the race, I saw some deeply ugly, coded, and at times outright racist attacks. And not just from the right. A lot of it came from the far left, who suddenly discovered a set of โ€œstandardsโ€ they never seemed to apply to her opponent.

Jasmine Crockett and James Talarico are both strong Democrats that we can be proud of. Debate is healthy. Competition is healthy. Thatโ€™s how primaries are supposed to work.

But whatโ€™s happened here hasnโ€™t felt very healthy.

Iโ€™m not a Texan, but itโ€™s hard to ignore whatโ€™s happening in the Democratic Senate primary in the state. Weโ€™re all clocking it, right?

Letโ€™s start with what should be obvious: whoever wins the Democratic nomination, we Dems should support him or her.

Trumpโ€™s New โ€œPrison Campโ€ Threat Unleashes Fury Even in MAGA Country The next phase of ICEโ€™s big ramp-up: a nationwide network of vast detention facilities. But guess what? Even parts of Red America are saying no.

Great work by Greg Sargent. We are, right now, deciding whether we want to be a land of giant concentration camps and ethnic cleanings.

No Joy in Cooking Secretary of agriculture Brooke Rollins recently suggested Americans can get the nutrition they need on $3 meals. Hereโ€™s what happened when I tried to follow her plan.

"Three days on the three-dollar meal plan had helped me realize something important: The diet had taken not only a physical toll, but a mental one." @jaredpoland.bsky.social did it so you don't have to:

Ethnic Cleansing in Ohio? Nazi Lies in Vance's America

In Springfield, Ohio, people are preparing in advance of a โ€œlarge deportationโ€ promised by the president. To all appearances, the city is 2 or 3 days from a federal ethnic cleansing, grounded in a hate campaign organized by the vice-president and American Nazis.
