I don’t think people will ever let him forget that. But I don’t see anyone else engaging the far right extremists with a 10th of his passion, smarts and strength.

He’s ruthless and he doesn’t look back.
We need ruthless defenders of human rights, the constitution and the rule of law.
We need people with his commitment, but without his bigoted psychosis.

Brazil's Justice Moraes ignores US sanctions, says he will continue doing his job Brazilian Supreme Court Justice Alexandre de Moraes, who is overseeing a criminal case against an ally of President Donald Trump, told a court session on Friday that he will continue to do his job and "ignore the sanctions" imposed by the United States that effectively block him from the country's wide-reaching financial system.

The Brazilian Supreme Court is fearless in the face of sanctions -and will ensure that the trial of Bolsonaro stays on track. Trump is once again attempting to obstruct justice when it comes to holding former presidents accountable. www.reuters.com/world/americ...

Vast supplies of U.S. aid remain stranded, despite State Department promises More than 60,000 metric tons of food have languished in warehouses in the United States and around the world β€” with expiration dates nearing on some items.

Trump and Musk are killing people. As is the Muskite that Ross Douthat interviewed.

Any security professional - military, government or otherwise - would be fired on the spot for this type of conduct and criminally prosecuted for being so reckless with this kind of information.

Firing all of the JAGs (Judge Advocates General)β€”the top lawyers in each service branchβ€”is just as bad as, if not worse than, firing (most of) the Joint Chiefs.

He’s looked like he’s been in declining health for a while, but now he looks positively ghastly.
His eyes are pinned, like a person on opioids.

Question:
Are there any independent journalists on this Rick Caruso story about how he saved his little Pacific Palisades mall, and how much he spent doing so?
Did his private firefighters sign NDA’s?
I heard he had a little water leftover and saved a house, is that proven?

I smell smoke.

There’s no city or county in America that has the resources or technology to fight a firestorm with 80 mph winds.
It doesn’t exist.
We’re in a new climate crisis territory.

Don’t let them gaslight you into believing differently.

If an Informant Narcs on a Riot But No FBI Agent Asks about It, Did It Really Happen? - emptywheel In spite of the fact that the FBI got key warnings about Stewart Rhodes and Enrique Tarrio that never got shared with FBI's Washington Field Office, in spite of the fact that the FBI had 26 informants...

My report on DOJ IG's Jan6 report notes that after FBI missed a phone call involving Osama Bin Laden in advance of 9/11 FBI created a dragnet aspiring to include ALL US phone calls.

After missing multiple warnings abt Stewart Rhodes & Enrique Tarrio, they yawned.

Elon, here you go again making false and completely unfounded accusations without providing any specifics. That’s the kind of response one would expect from a conspiracy theorist. What oligarch? What treason?

We need to beat them at all media.
The problem isn’t the message. The problem is distribution of the message IMO. People aren’t getting the truth.

HOUSE UPDATE

Republicans: 220 seats
Democrats: 214 seats

TBD: 1 seat (CA13, Dems lead)

Could be a 220-215 majority, which shrinks to 217-215 early 2025 when you subtract Gaetz, Stefanik, Waltz.

The GOP gerrymander in North Carolina (flipped 3 Dem seats) saved their majority.
