Federal judge, appointed by Reagan, in 161-page opinion today in deportation matter:

"There’s the issue of masks... To us, masks are associated with cowardly desperados and the despised Ku Klux Klan. In all our history we have never tolerated an armed masked secret police"

790 out of 800 generals and admirals cite relapsing bone spurs of the wrist for their refusal to applaud Mad King Donald. The other 10 would just as soon be bucked down to mess sergeant. <<satire>>

Donald Trump's unhinged speech in Quantico, Virginia, was met by an unwelcome response from the highest military officials which he assembled for an urgent meeting. Francis Maxwell reacts.

These women deserve a medal for coming forward amidst a sea of hate and death threats. POTUS and the other perps want to silence them. The fighter jet flyover was a nice touch, Mad King Donald. Every moment of silence by lawmakers delays (and denies) justice. #BelieveTheWomen

NEWS: Annie Farmer, an Epstein survivor who testified against Ghislaine Maxwell, just revealed on CNN that she wrote a letter with her concerns to Deputy AG Blanche — and received no response.

She says neither she nor other survivors have heard a word from the DOJ.

15 years ago, after Wall Street’s reckless bets crashed our economy, we enacted the Dodd-Frank Act—a step to rein in big banks and prevent working families from once again paying the price.

Dodd-Frank was clear—consumers first, not Wall Street. But the Trump Admin disagrees.

Trump Appointee Fails to Answer Basic Questions
YouTube video by Senator Kaine Trump Appointee Fails to Answer Basic Questions

I asked a Trump health appointee if he believes in Long COVID.

Couldn’t get a direct answer.

I asked if he’d recommend the COVID vaccine.

Couldn’t get a direct answer.

Let’s set the record straight: Long COVID is real and vaccines work. Claiming otherwise is dangerous.

This was my favorite part of closing arguments. But the government brought this ridicule on themselves. If you’re going to wax historic or literary with an 84-year-old judge, you best not miss.

They want to create enough unrest that the cops will spark real violence. The 47 regime wants a pretext for martial law.

That’s right. The billionaire bailout bill forces your tax dollars to pay for concentration camps and masked thugs to disappear your neighbors without due process. 16M people will be thrown off healthcare to pay for that, along with tax breaks for the rich.

A photograph of a New York Times article entitled “City Food Banks Are Bracing for Gaps in the Safety Net,” with a photo of workers at a food bank packing fruits and vegetables and another photo of two elderly Black sisters, one of whom has Alzheimer’s, who have only a few dollars a day for food after social security, and who rely on SNAP and food banks to survive.

This article doesn’t appear to be available online yet, but let me just tell you it is galling.

Elders are starving because DOGE cut $1b in food bank grants.

And now, cuts to the Agriculture Department in the looming budget bill along with SNAP cuts are destroying what funding was left.

One of the great blunders of 2017-2021 was US Courts’ collective failure to enforce the Foreign Emoluments Clause and the Domestic Emoluments Clause of the Constitution. 🤨⚖️👎🏻

Kash Patel's new way of leading the FBI: Fewer morning intel briefings, more pro sports events Supporters of the new director say he is bringing needed change. Some current and former FBI and DOJ officials worry he is not taking the job seriously enough.

"Two current FBI officials said Patel sometimes seemed uninterested and his intelligence briefers are struggling to craft a briefing that captures his attention..."

Has anyone asked the Department of Homeland Security why the agents it hires for ICE, HSI, etc. are so cowardly, weak and out-of-shape that a) they won't even show their faces in public and b) they need to pretend they were "assaulted" by two woman members of Congress, one of whom is 80 years old?

Trump's crypto venture is fleecing his supporters.

80% of the new or small-time crypto investors in Trump’s coin have been hit with big losses.

Meanwhile, his team is making millions off the coin’s trading fees, which stay stable even when its value goes down.

It’s a grift.
