How Ableist.

It's unacceptable.

People with tourettes - and John Davidson in particular - don't deserve to be the butt of anyone's joke.

"Assemble the Board of Peace - I'm starting a war".

Welp

So does this mean he’s only stopped SEVEN and a half wars now?

Here’s a thought for James Comer.

There IS a First Lady who has had a relationship with Jeffrey Epstein. And it’s not Hillary Clinton.

It might be worthwhile for Comer to subpoena the First Lady who actually knows Epstein.

You know, just to see what she knows.

Those who live in glass concentration camps shouldn’t throw stones.

I think we need to take a step back and acknowledge the absurdity of House Republicans targeting their Epstein investigation on HILLARY CLINTON (who says she never met him!) while ignoring DONALD TRUMP (who Epstein described as his best friend!)

These are not serious people or good faith actors.

MAGA Activists Pitch Trump on Chilling “National Emergency” Plot Pro-Trump activists say they’re in close contact about an executive order that would expand the president’s powers to intervene in elections.

This election plot is being pushed by Peter Ticktin, Donald Trump's friend from "boarding school"? You mean the New York Military academy Donald attended from age 13 - 18? Peter Ticktin who was once disbarred in Florida for professional misconduct?

Peter Ticktin, who was born and raised in Canada.

I presume he's a Naturalized US citizen, but like Musk and Tiel he's another foreign-born American who is not abiding his Oath to protect and defend the Constitution.

Indeed, he, Musk, and Tiel are attacking our Constitution and Democracy.

Why is Ticktin, a guy who was born and raised in Canada, trying to destroy our democratic way of life?

If he's a Naturalized US citizen, then he's failing to abide his Oath to protect and defend the Constitution.

Indeed, he's attacking our Constitution on specious grounds.

The real national emergency is Naturalized US citizens like Ticktin, Elon Musk, and Peter Thiel trying to destroy our democratic way of life.

They are not only abusing their Oaths to protect and defend our Constitution, they are foreign-born "enemies domestic" who are attacking it.

So Attorney Peter Ticktin the guy pushing Trump to federalize national US elections on the bases of a spurious national emergency was born and raised in Canada.

I presume he's a Naturalized US citizen, but what's the deal with foreign-born American trying to destroy our democracy? (1/)

Elizabeth Warren: "This one is to me not even open or arguable. How would the US government keep money that the Supreme Court said it did not legally collect from American businesses, that it did not legally take away from American families that ultimately paid this?"

Good piece, Jess. It's a sad story all around.

I feel bad for Michael B. Jordan, Delroy Lindo, and others who were hurt by the slurs, and I feel awful for Mr. Davidson.

Their list of "politically exposed persons" in the files is a bit crazy - it includes Marilyn Monroe, who died when Epstein was 9, but leaves out Thorbjorn Jagland, the former Prime Minister of Norway who was so "politically exposed" that he was just arrested for his Epstein ties! 3/

NEW: A page from Bondi's burn book. This is a list of the searches by Rep Jayapal of the unredacted Epstein files. That means the DOJ grabbed her search terms from the computers they set up for members of congress to view the Epstein files to use as ammunition. The photo is from Reuters.

Obama: "The rogue behavior of agents of the federal government is deeply concerning and dangerous ... the sort of behavior that we've seen in authoritarian countries and we've seen in dictatorships, but we have not seen in America."

"The right people voting..."

No, he's not.

YouTube just recommended randomly one of the best awards moments ever: the night Susan Lucci won after seventeen nominations for Erica Kane.

Please bring Hakeem Jeffries and the entire Democratic Delegation with you.

There's strength in numbers, and let them tell the House Minority Leader he can't come in.

He should tell them to their faces that any further funding is on the line and that they will all be held accountable.

Gladys Mae West obituary: mathematician who pioneered GPS technology She made key contributions to US cold-war science despite facing huge barriers as a Black woman.

No joke: I got angry hate mail today for writing an obituary of a Black woman scientist—because the person felt she did didn’t deserve the recognition.

We didn't say body cams on ICE. Their murders are already on video. We said no more ICE.

You just voted to keep funding them for two weeks with no conditions after ICE and CBP had murdered two American citizens.

You're a disgrace, and you need to resign.

The delay from SCOTUS on tariffs makes sense. The conservative justices are trying to solve a three-body problem: give Trump kingly powers, keep corporations safe from tariffs, and make sure no Democrat ever gets to use the same toys.

ICE claim that a man shattered his skull running into wall triggers tension at a Minnesota hospital Nurses in Minneapolis doubted federal immigration officers' claims about a Mexican immigrant's severe injuries.

Law enforcement cannot be lawless.

Thousands of aggressive, untrained agents of the federal government continue to injure and terrorize Minnesotans. This must end.
