They know they did it and they are responsible. Which is why they will continue to stonewall this. Good for the reporter to keep asking about it and not let this go, because they are counting on people just moving on.

If I’m looking for the most important character reference of my life, I probably wouldn’t reach out to someone who went to court to be able to not have to be around me. But, then, I have options.

OSSOFF: If there's one person who committed election fraud in Georgia, it's Donald Trump—when he dialed up our state's senior most election official, and tried to bully him in a recorded phone call to “find” the exact number of votes Donald Trump needed to win in a state

As private schools proliferate in Florida and across the country, fueled by taxpayer dollars, states are choosing not to closely regulate who is operating them or to oversee student safety and achievement, a ProPublica investigation found. Read this ⬇️⬇️ www.propublica.org/article/priv...

"For one hour each week, in a converted office building in New Haven, 5-year-old Camila got to see her mom." www.ctinsider.com/news/article...

a really gross piece that conflates platner being accused of rape with abdul al-sayed saying something snarky about haley stevens and AIPAC. it also includes a quote from a congresswoman claiming he has "a problematic record with women" with zero evidence.

What the actual fuck? Look, I'm sorry to keep saying this, but the president is clearly a dementia-ravaged necrotic husk of a man whose addled rants bear no actual resemblance to reality and I, for one, think that is concerning.

"During Duterte’s reign, people inside the Philippines thought they were experiencing quasi-normal political life. But the rest of the world was able to see the situation more clearly." This is about us:

@adriancarrasquillo.bsky.social on Trump overturning a DHS decision to pause vehicle stops: "That's how you end up with two dead dads."

On MSNOW with @chrislhayes.bsky.social last night, I shared how the fight to unrig Wisconsin gives us a roadmap for how to unrig the country. That's the plan in my book, This Is The Plan, out on Tuesday.

If the head of US intelligence isn't able to say who won the election in 2020, then maybe he shouldn't be head of US intelligence.

Clayton’s answer was disqualifying. After recounts, audits, and lawsuits, there is no evidence to support Trump’s fantasies of a stolen election in 2020. Our intelligence services must be above politics.

“The criminals this week were the ICE agents. The people they killed weren’t criminals...both were summarily executed in the street for existing while Hispanic.” @timmiller.bsky.social condemns the Trump administration after ICE agents shot and killed two men in one week.

An agent from HSI—the criminal investigation arm of ICE—shot and killed a young man in May while responding to a local 911 call as part of Trump’s ‘Memphis Safe Task Force.’ The call had nothing to do with immigration. Jonah Neal. Say his name.

Hochul: But why were they there in the first place? Is it just unsafe for people in this country to even be in their vehicles anymore—that you could get gunned down by rogue ICE agents? People have had enough.

“How is this not national news?” 🫡 @rawstory.com covers our reaction to Tennessee DA’s & police condemning MEMPHIS DA Steve Mulroy’s op-ed revealing Force Science is training cops to be violent and justify killings - even Floyd & Garner www.rawstory.com/police-26772...

DHS claims the ICE agent who killed a man in Maine yesterday was “fearing for public safety.” But shooting into a moving vehicle endangers the public & it's against policy. It's just like claims a driver weaponized his vehicle against ICE-a claim that's often made but never true in these situations.

“The vehicle attempted to flee the scene and, fearing for public safety, an officer discharged his weapon.” Fleeing. The vehicle was driving away. That’s murder. A legal resident of the United States is now dead. The threat to public safety is ICE. It must be eliminated.

the real story behind this viral photo is even more heartbreaking than the one the public created.

My latest about how earlier today, all of Trump's abuses — the abuse of the legal system, the politicization of the DOJ and the grift — came crashing down on Trump and his lawyers in a Florida federal court. newsletters.democracydocket.com/-trump-has-a...

“The obstacles aren’t physical, they’re not technological, they’re simply political; and political obstacles can be overcome. If we can move away rapidly enough from fossil fuel burning towards a clean energy economy, we can prevent a level of warming that would be truly catastrophic for humanity.”

Whew. Maggie Haberman confirms today that Trump was surprised by his *own* tariff numbers and rates: “At one point, he didn’t realize how high China’s tariffs burden had gotten. It was up to 145% & his reaction was holy shit…It’s not a formula. It’s a gut feeling.”

This is the most confounding aspect of this era

Ha. @crampell.bsky.social ftw. www.independent.co.uk/news/world/a...

“Those Trump signs are gone. People feel betrayed.”

WSJ EDITORIAL BOARD: “.. the President is right that his tariffs are at work — in destroying U.S. jobs .. The U.S. has lost some 75,000 manufacturing jobs since January 2025 .. “His trade oscillations and border taxes are a major reason .. why Americans are so unhappy.” www.wsj.com/opinion/how-...

It’s “rules for thee, but not for me” when it comes to Texas AG Ken Paxton. He used an address where he hasn’t lived since 2024 while voting in six elections in the past two years! I break down the allegations of how Paxton may have committed a second-degree felony. youtu.be/-5hieL8HRG4?...

"You don’t pressure witnesses to a shooting to self-deport if your goal is to get to the bottom of what happened." In the same way that the government did not investigate the Minnesota shootings, they will not investigate these shootings.

"Our current leaders talk endlessly about American exceptionalism, while turning us into an unexceptional country presided over by thuggish apparatchiks. I dare say Lorenzo Salgado Araujo was a better American than they are."

“ a crime against humanity that makes anyone who still has a functioning moral compass want to scream in outrage.”

Family members and local officials are calling for a full investigation into the shooting death of a man killed by ICE agents in Houston. https://to.pbs.org/3QJa4kz

ICE claims that Araujo drove into one of their SUVs with his van and then tried to run over an agent. There were no marks on the van and KHOU11's Jeremy Rogalski found surveillance footage showing ICE chasing Araujo and cutting him off. Renee Good all over again.

Juan Proaño on the killing of Lorenzo Salgado Araujo: The family is demanding the release of Lorenzo’s body. It has been complicated because they removed all of his personal identifying information before they put him in the ambulance. That required the hospital to admit him as a John Doe.

It's worth noting, explicitly, that the people our thuggish government is going after and even, in some cases, killing, are better Americans than they are. Today's Morning Shots from @billkristolbulwark.bsky.social and Ben Parker:

This is human trafficking not deportation

“This is not ok. We cannot normalize the National Guard killing American citizens. They shouldn’t be in Memphis at all. The family deserves answers.” Rep. @justinjpearson.bsky.social reacts to the news 2 National Guard troops shot and killed Tyrin Johnson in MEMPHIS.

Reduced media attention does not mean a less extreme approach to deportations. DHS has reminded us of that in the worst way possible. The latest edition of Huddled Masses from @adriancarrasquillo.bsky.social:
