Thanks, New Yorker

RAJU: You swore in 2 GOP members during pro forma session. Why not swear in Grijalva? Does it have to do w/her signature on Epstein petition?

JOHNSON: It has nothing to do with that. We'll swear her in when everybody is back

R: Why not now?

J: Uh - we'll schedule it, I guess, as soon as she wants

This is Adelita Grijalva.

She was elected to Congress two weeks ago, officially making her the final vote needed to force the release of the Epstein files.

She has still not been sworn in because Mike Johnson refuses to do so.

24 hours at ICE: Is this what ‘lawless mayhem’ looks like? President Donald Trump said conditions continue to deteriorate. Here’s what the newsroom saw.

The Oregonian is covering the situation in Portland

ABC, NBC, CBS, and CNN have left the building.

Harmeet Dhillon (DOJ) publicly targeted this judge on Twitter a couple weeks ago.

Federal agents hurled tear gas at people on a busy Logan Square street, outside a grocery store and near an elementary school.

Reckless, undertrained ICE hires are a danger to everyone. This is terrorism against US citizens.

Nothing says America First like bailing out Argentina while making healthcare unaffordable for 20+ million Americans.

Or signing an Article 5 protection treaty with Qatar coz they bribed you with a plane, while screwing over longstanding NATO allies.

Folks, I think America First might be a scam.

Scott Jennings is either lying or wildly misinformed about what happened in Chicago. He keeps claiming 37 Tren de Aragua gang members were arrested. As if it excuses zip tying kids.

DHS says 37 were arrested, and only 2 were suspected gang members.

Van Lathan gets it. We can’t lose our humanity.

Folks: I am not on TikTok. Any account there is not me. And I will NEVER ask for money!

I’m running for office in my native Oregon precisely because of the ugliness in our politics. When things get ugly, more people need to stand up — not step back. I’m standing up for decency, for hope, and for the future we deserve.

In Nineteen Eighty-Four, the "memory hole" is a small chute leading to a large incinerator used for censorship. The Treasury deleted this statement from its website:

Oregon AG Rayfield: The first thing that might’ve told you the federal government wasn’t doing so hot was when they started off some of their arguments by talking about Truth Social as their source of facts.

Actually got a comment from the judge: “Is this really how you’re going to move forward?”

Dear fellow Canadians (and Danes, Scots, Czechs, Spaniards, Japanese -- the full roster of NATO and G7 members),

Look out your windows right now. Do you see anything resembling this going on in your country?

They literally only know how to be victims

Oregon AG Rayfield: Huge win at this moment in our democracy right now.

This is the president that is normalizing the use of the United States military in our country.

So to get this strong of a ruling out today for the public to see—it’s incredibly important.

Texas school district yanks YA Holocaust novel ‘The Devil’s Arithmetic’ after using AI to detect ‘DEI content’ - Jewish Telegraphic Agency The 1988 novel by Jewish author Jane Yolen is about a young Jewish American girl who travels back in time to World War II-era Poland and is sent to a Nazi death camp.

I read this article from JTA and immediately borrowed the book on Libby from my county library. Read banned books.

ICE Wants to Build Out a 24/7 Social Media Surveillance Team Documents show that ICE plans to hire dozens of contractors to scan X, Facebook, TikTok, and other platforms to target people for deportation.

Anyone who thinks this massive surveillance regime will be limited to immigration enforcement (and it’s bad enough that they’re using it for immigration enforcement) should try reading a little history sometime.

Federal Agents Handcuff Chicago Alderperson At Hospital ER In another incident caught on video Friday, federal agents inside a car randomly threw tear gas into a Logan Square street while people — including a 2-year-old — were outside nearby.

Federal agents are overtly abusing their power to try to intimidate advocates and elected officials. We need ICE out of Illinois immediately and justice for people like Ald. Jessie Fuentes who are defending their communities.

Let us in. Hold ICE accountable. Tear down the fence.

This is what we are demanding from the Broadview ICE facility, and nothing less.

Our leaders can decide whether they stand with the people or with ICE. There is no middle ground.
