I would like to amplify this post by 1000x because Reuters f'd up this story to start with -- by falsely reporting that Costco would no longer carry mifepristone, when it never did -- and other news outlets ran with it and far-right legal groups are taking credit for something that didn't happen.

Inslee: If you need more energy, the dumbest thing you can do is disallow access to wind, solar, and advanced batteries—three of the most productive ways of producing new energy. And yet, that’s exactly what he’s done.

Trump orders homeless he passed en route to golf course to leave Washington DC President demands unhoused residents leave US capital or face eviction and vowed to use officers to make arrests

The phrase "en route to golf course" adds so much to the headline.

I see.

Missouri Democratic lawmakers are in such a superminority that they don’t even need to show up for laws to be passed in this state.

An even sadder statement? A piece of legislation can go from the House to the Senate to becoming a law on the Governor’s desk while never being signed by a woman.

Speaking as a DC resident: statehood now. It is absurd that Trump can do this in our city.

Veterans’ Care at Risk Under Trump as Hundreds of Doctors and Nurses Reject Working at VA Hospitals Amid concerns about the stability of the agency, records show nearly 40% of the doctors offered jobs at the VA from January through March of this year turned them down — quadruple the rate of…

The VA is down 600 doctors and about 1,900 nurses so far this year, the first time the agency has seen net losses in years.

At several facilities, more than a third of the positions for doctors are unfilled.

FBI agents are not trained to patrol streets. And every agent that is assigned to do that is NOT investigating:

*foreign spies stealing gov’t and trade secrets
*foreign and domestic terrorist threats
*crimes like fraud, corruption, trafficking, and violent crimes (among others)

Do you feel safer?

How’s it going to work when Boasberg finds Bove ordered planes to land “no matter what,” ie disobey the court?

Don't. Print. Lies. In. The. Newspapers 🤷‍♂️🤦‍♂️😡

It's not a "trade agreement", bc POTUS can't make "trade agreements" on his own, & every media outlet should stop being lazy by using "deal" or "agreement" & instead do journalism & explain to readers that all of this is wildly illegal & not how it works.

The Trump Administration Is About to Incinerate 500 Tons of Emergency Food Federal workers warned for months that the high-energy biscuits would go to waste.

"Five months into its unprecedented dismantling of foreign-aid programs, the Trump administration has given the order to incinerate food instead of sending it to people who need it"

What a maroon.

Six minutes.

Evil.

Just got a call about a FOIA request I filed in 2017.

By the time they got to my request, 8 years later, the records I was asking about have been deleted.

#FOIA

And the Qatari royal family has been unsuccessfully trying to sell it for five years.

The plaque honoring the heroes of January 6 is finished, but the GOP refuses to hang it in the Capitol.

Not one Republican has offered a reason why.

If they can’t respect the officers who defended our democracy, the very least they can do is respect the law.

Cutting SNAP funding and giving the money to billionaires. That's not beautiful, that's betrayal.

JUST IN: Former pardon attorney Liz Oyer is suing the Justice Department for her communications with the deputy attorney general's office about restoring Mel Gibson's gun rights.

This is basically unitary executive theory being translated into practice: the president cannot be questioned because his will is that of the American people.

Trump's brain is gone It really should be a bigger story.

I do my part! www.publicnotice.co/p/trump-cogn...

Trump, who is set to accept a $400M floating palace airplane from Qatar, tweeted this about Obama in 2012:

Trump accepting the plane is Good, Actually™️ because Trump traveling around in a tangible, visual giant bribe makes it easier for most people to understand it as corrupt and a security risk than the crypto/meme/social media stuff.

You morons I’m taking a *public* bribe

Not that this needs to be said, but bribery out in the open is still bribery.

"The firing of Register of Copyrights Shira Perlmutter came after Perlmutter and her office earlier this week issued part three of a lengthy report about artificial intelligence and expressed some concerns and questions about the usage of copyrighted materials by AI technology."

THIS is the most devastating constitutional crisis.

I can't wait for the day when a lawyer argues in court that Trump accepted a bribe in an official act as chief executive and is therefore immune from prosecution.

And it just might work.
