CCTV footage appears to show DHS agents posing as people having car trouble in order to lure a target out of his house before arresting them. The target comes out and starts helping them before 3 vehicles surround the scene. The car "experiencing" trouble then drives off with them.

Yikes. That is a lot of expertise to lose in a short time.

Exclusive: Key US infectious-diseases centre to drop pandemic preparation Staff members have been instructed to scrub this topic and ‘biodefense’ from the agency’s website.

Scoop: The NIH infectious-diseases institute (NIAID) will soon scrub “pandemic preparedness” and “biodefense” from its web pages, according to e-mails I obtained.

The directive is the start of a broader shake-up at NIAID, which has long been attacked by Republicans.

Trump posted a video depicting the first Black president and his wife as apes and his excuse for this is that it's a riff on The Lion King, a movie that does not feature any apes. Somehow this was a one-day story and we've already moved on.

No surprises here.

Horrific conditions discovered as lawmaker makes unannounced drop-in at ICE facility A Democrat revealed on Thursday that he witnessed horrific conditions for immigrants detained at a local Immigration and Customs Enforcement holding facility. Rep. Jamie Raskin (D-MD) posted on X that...

"Noem has a budget of $75 billion she could use to ensure humane conditions, but we saw 60 men packed into a room shoulder-to-shoulder, 24-hours-a-day, with a single toilet in the room and no shower facilities. They sleep like sardines with aluminum foil blankets."

It's the reality TV presidency admin, and screen time is what counts.

Tremendous, timeless words to meditate upon, composed a thousand years ago:

‘do not see the faults of others, keep secret their wrongdoings, and advise them only when no one can hear.

Pray for the sinners and pardon their wrongdoings.’

No appointee of this administration even bothers to create the appearance of doing their job anymore, just openly serving as the president's personal apologist and attack dog. Completely illegitimate government

Bondi lies shamelessly: "When he was elected overwhelmingly by the American people -- the majority of the American people wanted Donald Trump."

(Trump of course has never gotten a majority of the vote.)

Swalwell plays Bondi a clip of Kash Patel *lying under oath* about how many times Trump's name appears in the Epstein files

Very good idea to make sure all the children left with him

Is parapsychology (ESP etc) the only research area rigorous enough to tolerate explicit reference to the likelihood of fraud?

Remember this…

The US deficit is approaching ww2 levels as a percent of GDP.

Because of the “Big Beautiful Bill” that GOP voted for.

We are spending more on INTEREST than on anything else including the military.

This is a time bomb, and the GOP is responsible. Fiscal conservative my ass

-Saved us from Covidflation faster than any other industrialized economy
-Brought back more jobs than Trump with the Inflation reduction act and Infastructure bill and chips and science act
-Refused to give Israel cluster bombs because he values human life
-And oh yeah…NOT IN THE EPSTEIN FILES!!!!

NSA detected phone call between foreign intelligence and a person close to Trump Whistleblower says that Tulsi Gabbard blocked agency from sharing report and delivered it to White House chief of staff

Gosh I wonder who the mutual acquaintances of Epstein and Putin might be. www.reuters.com/world/poland...

Lutnick and Epstein were in business together, Epstein files show Though the commerce secretary has called his interactions with Epstein as "limited," the two were in business together four years after Epstein's 2008 guilty plea.

Uh oh. Howard Lutnick & Epstein were IN BUSINESS TOGETHER as recently as 2014. Lying Lutnick caught again.

Yet ANOTHER revelation of the Lutnick-Epstein friendship.

(Lying Lutnick said he met Epstein once in 2005 and never had contact with him again.)

Seems like it should be a bigger story that a witness swore under penalty of perjury that Donald Trump threatened a young girl, saying she would “disappear like another 12-year-old.”

The media is basically ignoring that and, if the witness is lying, why isn't the DOJ prosecuting them?

Yes, the SCOTUS HAS BECOME ILLEGIT. But it is the partisan politicians (who nominate and confirm SCOTUS justices) who over time have neutered ALL checks and balances on the presidency. And it is the desperation of one party, based on obvious demographics, that caused these corruptions to our govt.👇

In Bay Area, Felony Charges Against Student Protesters Prompt Free Speech Concerns Local prosecutors are seeking felony-level charges against pro-Palestine demonstrators. Even if they don’t stick, critics say the response is harsh and could chill protests.

The decision by two Bay Area DAs to pursue felony conspiracy charges against student protesters has critics concerned about the growing push to suppress protest. “That’s really concerning for the health of our democracy.”

If you hear someone saying that they hope lawyers are ready to go to court to protect free and fair elections, I suggest you let them know that my law firm is already litigating more than 80 voting and election cases in 40 states.

Gabe Fleisher (@gabefleisher) How many Republicans willing to break with Trump are left in Congress? I ran the numbers. Out of the 493 GOP lawmakers since 2017, only 94 have ever broken with Trump on a key vote. By 2025, only 4...
