Yesterday, Maurene Comey, who prosecuted the Epstein case, was summarily fired from SDNY. Her letter to colleagues pulls no punches. "Fear is the tool of a tyrant, wielded to suppress independent thought."

From this new WSJ article about Epstein's bestie, Donald.

Donald: We have certain things in common, Jeffrey.
Jeffrey: Yes we do, come to think of it.

What might that be Mr. President??????????

SCOOP: While OK AG Gentner Drummond has been blustering about retrying Richard Glossip for murder a third time, behind the scenes he long ago -- and in writing -- cut a deal to release Glossip

Pam Bondi is breaking the DOJ And will take generations to put it back together.

New in PN: Pam Bondi is breaking the DOJ

"The Department of Justice is no longer in the business of justice at all, and has squandered the presumption of regularity it once enjoyed with judges. One of the bulwarks of American civil society is functionally MIA β€” a massive blow to state capacity."

We need to start pushing backβ€”legally

If they’re masked, unmarked, and flashing Amazon gear, report it for what it is: an attempted kidnapping by law enforcement impersonators.

πŸŽ₯ Record.

πŸ“ž Call the police.

β€œICE vest” is not an ID.

We are a proud member of the National Coalition for Public Education. The big budget bill would divert billions of tax dollars for public education into private hands. Equal access to quality education for all is a cornerstone of a democratic society. Tax dollar grabs are not. @lwvus.bsky.social

He knew the court would order the planes turned around, and told his DoJ lawyers to tell the court to fuck off. This letter has already shown up in the South Sudan DVD case in a motion filed by the Plaintiffs at SCOTUS today.

Why Are Federal Agents Wearing Masks? It’s a Threat to American Democracy Masked Federal Agents Are Undermining Trustβ€”and Democracy

If you need a mask to enforce the law, you don’t deserve a badge.
Federal agents are snatching people off the streetsβ€”faces covered, names hidden.
This isn’t safety. It’s secrecy.
It’s not America.

KELLY: Does HHS's vaccine webpage reflects the department's view on covid vaccines?

RFK JR: I haven't seen the website

KELLY: It's kind of troubling that you're unaware of what your own department's website states. It says they're safe and effective.
