Doug Emhoff with Sarah at tonight’s Bulwark LIVE at The Novo in DTLA.

Thomas Massie: “Today is the six month anniversary of the Epstein Transparency Act. We’ve taken out two dozen CEOs, an ambassador, a prince, a prime minister, a minister of culture, that was just six months. I’ve got seven months left in Congress.” video courtesy @acyn.bsky.social

GOOD. It would be ironic, given the events of the past 2.5 years, if the far-right Israeli government ends up collapsing because the ultra-far right wing is furious over having to actually SERVE IN THE ARMED FORCES.

Love this shot. I think this is a thermal infrared camera, showing how the bottom of the capsule is still glowing due to its warmth after hypersonically ramming the atmosphere — compressing a gas heats it up a LOT when you're moving at superorbital speeds. #ArtemisII

I need this, Mitch. Don't blackball me.

FWIW: Via the FEC, AIPAC has raised $34 million & spent $32 million so far this election cycle. www.fec.gov/data/committ... Via followthecrypto.org, the crypto industry has already RAISED between $220 - $320 million this election cycle so far & spent ~$25 million. (edited to correct per comments)

75% of Chicago precincts are in, 88% in the Suburbs. This will be close.

So our government prepared for the possible Iranian mining of the Strait of Hormuz by...decommissioning our minesweeper ships stationed in the Middle East *after* bombing Iran last year, and hassling our European allies who still have minesweepers ...

If this is airstrikes only, who are they supposed to surrender to, and who are the 'forces of liberation'?

In the months ahead we will be talking a lot about this. CNN + CBS will, I think, become the most heated site in the Orbánization of American media. On day one of the new boss those still working at CNN should expect to be treated as biased — liberal bias, of course. That's the signal: it's on.

4 of the 5 U.S. men's hockey players who turned down Trump's invite to the White House and to SOTU are from Minnesota www.huffpost.com/entry/latest...

Americans should understand that Trump has forward deployed a substantial fraction of US land-based aircraft out in the open within missile range of Iran. This is a war of choice that could wipe out combat power the US might wish it had husbanded for other scenarios. www.nytimes.com/2026/02/20/u...

Trump supporters who regretted their vote were a rarity in focus groups in his first term. But @margieomero.bsky.social is finding in her focus groups now that Trump regretters are "a real thing that is happening," just like @sarahlongwell25.bsky.social is as well.

Wild that a sitting member of Congress, a Republican no less, feels compelled to post this.

Apparently morale at DOJ is so low that line attorneys are asking to be held in contempt so they can get some sleep yikes

BREAKING: The two federal immigration agents who fired on Minneapolis protester Alex Pretti are identified in government records as Border Patrol agent Jesus Ochoa and Customs and Border Protection officer Raymundo Gutierrez.

There you go. That $35 mil marketing campaign brought out the usual suspects.

Breaking: Democrat Taylor Rehmet wins solidly red Texas Senate seat in stunning special election upset.

As seen on r/nursing Alex Pretti's coworkers taking a moment of silence to honor him

when the feds essentially abandoned the scene today after gassing us, we saw upon returning to the intersection this pile of what we were pretty sure was alex’s coat & some of his clothes, a lighter & a crampon, with crime scene tape in it we created the barrier to preserve likely evidence

Kristi Noem must be impeached. ICE must be abolished. Democrats in the Senate cannot fund DHS. Trump has created a militarized police force accountable only to him. These agents need to leave our cities NOW.

this is what it has come to for Mexican restaurants in the Twin Cities

Aftermath of ICE violence against a U.S. citizen

Apparently ICE goons in multi-car caravans are circling Spanish immersion preschools in the city taunting and photographing the parents and neighbors who are patrolling the school perimeter to keep kids safe.

Trump is seen flipping off Ford worker who appears to yell "pedophile protector" as he walks by

Loud and comforting boos tonight for the Melania trailer at the local AMC before Song Sung Blue.

It’s pretty wild that the most rabidly anti-immigrant administration in recent memory is comprised of a President married to an immigrant, a VP married to the daughter of immigrants, an assistant AG in charge of Civil Rights who’s an immigrant (Dhillon), & it was all funded by an immigrant (Musk).

It looks like it's been scrubbed from every official 60 Minutes page now. It's only a 30-second promo but here it is if you didn't get a chance to see it.

Schedule change at the Donald J. Trump and 60 Minutes Memorial Program

This is college in the United States. Video from inside a Brown University building shows the moment that police found a group of students who were sheltering after the shooting on campus. This isn't freedom.

Jared Kushner's involvement was "not mentioned in Paramount's press release on Monday morning about its $108 billion bid, nor were participating sovereign wealth funds from Saudi Arabia, Abu Dhabi and Qatar." fancy that

h/t @adamwren.bsky.social Michael Bohacek, a Republican state senator from Indiana who has a daughter with down syndrome, says he will vote against redistricting in Indiana after Trump used the word "retarded."

"Some of the Border Patrol teams dispatched to Chicago could be diverted to Charlotte, North Carolina for an operation that is expected to start there this month, the U.S. officials said." www.cbsnews.com/news/gregory...

UA flight from to Dulles to LAX is arriving 40 minutes early because the airspace is wide open. What utter bullshit.

After years of decline, 18–29-year-olds delivered a 35-point margin for @SpanbergerForVA — the biggest for Dems since 2017. Older voters barely moved, but young voters anchored the Democratic turnaround.

Historical perspective on Virginia election results- Abigail Spanberger is on track to win by the largest margin of any Democratic candidate for Governor since 1961, before the integration-era party realignment. Democrats will win their largest House of Delegates majority since 1987. A BIG night.

Los Angeles suffered tremendously because of the wildfires. The president of the United States has wanted to make the immigrants who make the city suffer and declared war on the city. But all throughout it, L.A. makes it work daily. It’s a place where people go to make it. LA deserves this.

The Democrats need to get a hell of a lot of cameras on the White House and plaster the photos everywhere. It's not just the brazen symbol of a megalomaniac destroying national heritage; it's happening during a government shutdown when ordinary people aren't getting paid. Make every American see it.

The name of the staffer who had the swastika behind him: Angelo Elia Graduated from a masters program at George Washington University this year and began working in Congress in January

RFK linking Tylenol to autism is doing a solid for the man crowd who think they’ll live until 150 making babies. While the science has focused on paternal age or chemical changes in sperm, RFK wants to blame women for taking the only med available to them to alleviate intense hip pain before birth.

Former counselor to RFK Jr’s predecessor:

NEW: Two men were found hanging from trees in Mississippi on Tuesday—a Black student at Delta State University in Cleveland and a homeless white man in Vicksburg. Police say the deaths aren't connected, but speculation has spread on social media like wildfire.

SCOTUS: considering race as one factor in a college applicant's file is blatantly unconstitutional ALSO SCOTUS: considering race as one factor in targeting whom to detain and deport is cool cool cool

The Aug employment report shows the strain from growth negative policies--restrictive immigration means construction job losses, trade war means mfg job losses, budget cuts mean state & local govts and health care sputter as job engines. The economy is v close to a tipping point

Job growth has been essentially zero since January in industries that rely more on immigrants.

Nine grafs deep into the article and we find out: "Pentagon officials were still working Wednesday on what legal authority they would tell the public was used to back up the extraordinary strike in international waters."
