RIP to civil rights leader and icon Reverend Jesse Jackson. Another sad loss for the world. 🙏
Everything about this story should fill you with horror and fury.
That's not the way it works. Again, it's a political move with midterms not based on any sort of financial or legal reality.

History teaches us that the greatest harms often begin with the quiet acceptance of the unacceptable. I have seen where that road leads, and I will not walk it again without resistance.
Right-wing influencers like Johnson were primarily taking aim at homeless and transitional housing — and exaggerating their “findings.” It’s a strategy state election officials have long been aware of. www.democracydocket.com/analysis/rig...
Every story out of Dilley makes me think of Rep. McIver asking DHS officials:
"Do you think you're going to hell?"
“As the airplane took off, Epstein started touching me forcibly in between my legs, and I freaked out. I realized, this is not a modeling opportunity, I've been kidnapped. They whisked me away to the island. I was stuck there. They never arranged any modeling opportunities, I was completely conned."
Warnock: "Jesus is a victim of identity theft in American politics and culture"
“I don’t want to be in this place I want to go to my school.”

Today, after @propublica.org published this story, the camp was raided to confiscate letters from the children.

Trump discovers the word "Whole" has a "W" in it.
Canada’s new Defence Industrial Strategy will transform our military and defence supply chains — creating good careers at home, opening new markets for our businesses, and equipping the Canadian Armed Forces with the world-class equipment they need to protect Canada and our Allies.
CBS pulling @jamestalarico.bsky.social’s interview from The Late Show with Stephen Colbert is alarming and nothing short of censorship. Full breakdown on my Substack page (link below).

Today the Minnesota House gaveled into session for the first time since we lost Speaker Hortman, Mark, and Gilbert.
In the spirit of Melissa, we commit to doing our work with humility, grace, and compassion.
I spent my childhood inside of American concentration camps. I know one when I see one. And that is what ICE is building.
Under Sec. Noem, search and rescue operations (which used to be the Coast Guard’s core mission) now have diminished priority. She's created an "atmosphere of ‘keep your head down; you don’t want to be on the firing line,'" a Coast Guard official said. trib.al/UNYQslf
A new U.S.-Argentina agreement could undermine protections for European food names included in the EU-Mercosur trade accord.
The question is: Which deal will be ratified first?

How is it possible that Kristi Noem still has this job. Imagine if you’re a family member or a shipmate of this guardsman.

ABC: Do you still have confidence in Pam Bondi as AG?
MASSIE: I don't think Pam Bondi has confidence in Pam Bondi. She wasn't confident enough to engage in anything but name calling in a hearing. So no, I don't. She was responsible for the document production.
Just days after Commerce Secretary Howard Lutnick was exposed for his complete lie about cutting off contact with sexual predator Jeffrey Epstein, yet another Trump official was discovered to be in the Epstein files. trib.al/Q6lCrD8
For those unaware, a quick primer on perhaps the most dangerous of the oligarchs.
Peter Thiel.
Moskowitz: By the president’s own metrics, what accomplishments does Noem have?
• She’s holding up 200 miles of border wall.
• She’s deported fewer people than Obama.
• She’s not helping any of these red-state governors with their disasters.
Why hasn’t he fired her?
Trump is saying that he will disregard Congress and issue an Excutive order that will violate the Constitution.
Here is my promise: If he does that, we will sue and we will win. Just like we did the last time. www.democracydocket.com/news-alerts/...
The conservative Democrats are in charge of Congress. What's a conservative? Someone who protects the status quo, the hierarchy, the old way of doing things.
There are some genuinely thoughtful, empathetic communicators in the Democratic Party, and the fact that this guy and Schumer are somehow “leaders” is not only absurd, but downright insulting.
It’s really @hakeem-jeffries.bsky.social who’s being unclear not @wajali.bsky.social tho
Raskin: What makes somebody a good lawyer?
You have to identify with the people who are the victims of injustice — not with their perpetrators.
So I would say to Pam Bondi: If you’re going to stand with the victimizers and not the victims, then you’re not a real lawyer.
“I’ve never protested before - but I just watched 4th & 5th grade kids run away from our own government.” 😕🇺🇸💔
(From @crindivisible.bsky.social )
Wow! This is some top-notch investigative journalism. The report claims the 3 million Epstein files released are only 2% of the total.
The massive scale of what’s still missing is hard to comprehend.
Never stop talking about the Epstein Files.
Never stop talking about the violence, chaos and murders committed by ICE-Gestapo killers.
