The world asks us to be productive. Life asks us to be resilient. But sometimes what we need most is to simply be kind to ourselves. Rest is not weakness. Crying is not failure. Asking for help is not giving up. Take care of yourself. You deserve it!! #SheShed #SelfCare #Wellness #SelfCompassion

New: we've obtained a DHS document outlining ICE's plan to give potentially more than a thousand local law enforcement agencies a facial recognition app that would query a database of hundreds of millions of images to verify someone’s immigration status www.404media.co/ices-plan-to...

Donald Trump is fighting the BBC's effort to subpoena dozens of members of his inner circle as part of the news outlet’s defense in his $10 billion defamation lawsuit

At 4am, Senate Republicans gave the greenlight for the IRS to drop ALL investigations into Trump and his family. That means if Trump is evading taxes, we’ll never know. I have a bill to make this illegal. And I won’t stop fighting to get it done.

Here are the top 5 dogs of the week!

My question is why would the DoJ oppose an injunction against the slush fund that Blanche claims is dead?

JUST IN: Trump administration argues courts lack grounds to halt White House ballroom project even if it was clearly illegal. DOJ attorney also contends no lawsuit could stop Trump from tearing down Statue of Liberty if he wanted to. w/ @kyledcheney.bsky.social www.politico.com/news/2026/06...

Fourteen of the 27 known corporate donors to President Trump’s White House ballroom project have won new or expanded federal contracts worth more than $50 billion during the past six months, according to a report. Read more here: https://wapo.st/4o85ZCx

🚨 BIG NEWS. A federal court just declared unlawful and blocked a series of Trump admin policies heavily restricting legal immigration since last December. The judge overturns "pauses" on immigration benefits for nationals of disfavored countries, as well as related policies.

A Rhode Island judge has vacated Trump administration policies targeting people from 39 travel ban countries, including a freeze on work permits and other benefits for people already in the US.

🚨BREAKING: The Senate blocked another Republican attempt Thursday to attach the anti-voting SAVE America Act to an immigration funding package, marking the second failed GOP effort to move the sweeping voting restrictions bill through the chamber. www.democracydocket.com/news-alerts/...

RIP Anthony Head, 72. By all accounts, he was a total gent. www.bbc.co.uk/news/article...

Musk belongs in jail as do his minions behind schemes like this.

I've been searching for the official NASA comms on this, but nothing. Lots of sites reporting in the last hour the ISS crew got orders "to enter their Crew Dragon spacecraft...& don their spacesuits in case the air leak warranted an emergency evacuation". 🤞hoping they can fix this🤞🔭🧪⚛️🛰️

There’s been a lot of talk in this race about what makes a "real man." A man does what’s right when no one is watching. He upholds his commitments to his family and neighbors. He doesn’t lie, cheat, & steal his way through life. Real men serve others. Weak men serve themselves.

The Trump administration has quietly removed an array of floating ocean observatories from waters off the WA and OR coasts, KUOW has learned. Their removal is part of a national dismantling of a network of sophisticated data buoys in the Pacific and Atlantic oceans. www.kuow.org/stories/ocea...

I really do wonder if some of the Republican-appointed justices are growing irritated that a significant portion of their docket EVERY TERM now involves lopsidedly reversing insane 5th Circuit decisions. Or do they appreciate how it makes SCOTUS look sane and moderate by comparison?

The Trump regime has chosen to separate the same group of immigrant children from their families a SECOND time. Terrorizing children is just plain evil 😡🤬

NEW: WIRED analyzed Meta's AI app and found NameTag — a hidden facial recognition system designed to identify people via the wearer's smart glasses — has already shipped to over 50 million phones.

HUGE NEWS: Gov. Mikie Sherrill and leaders in the New Jersey Legislature announced a $12 million increase in funding for the Detention Deportation Defense Initiative (DDDI) In addition to more funding, Gov. Sherrill also announced a rapid legal response initiative to support detained New Jerseyans.

There you have it: Trump announces that he is going to nominate Blanche tomorrow. He already has shown himself to be perhaps the most unqualified, corrupt nominee in history just by virtue of his performance as Acting AG. The Dems need to really buck up and fight.

NEWS: A @lawfaremedia.org report finds that *97* Jan. 6ers who received clemency for their role in the attack were arrested, charged, or convicted of subsequent crimes—a number much higher than previously reported. Incredible work by @katherinepomps.bsky.social www.lawfaremedia.org/article/the-...

Senate Republicans just started a marathon voting session known as vote-a-rama in the Senate. Not to improve your life. Not to lower your costs. But to funnel $70 billion more to ICE and the abuses I saw at Delaney Hall. Not another dime.

NEW: Ballroom donors have won more than $50B in government contracts according to watchdog group @publiccitizen.bsky.social www.washingtonpost.com/politics/202...

A widespread screwworm outbreak in Texas could cause $1.8 billion in economic losses, according to the USDA.

NEW: No state has taken over as many public school districts as Texas. Since 2020, the Texas Education Agency has installed its own hand-picked leaders in eight districts. Four of those came just this spring. At least another 10 are at risk of takeover. w/ @texasobserver.org

Trump wants to use millions in national park entry fees to fund his vanity projects — including a $1.6M fireworks show and a $5M White House helipad. This comes after he made huge cuts to the NPS budget. We should be preserving our national treasures for future generations, not neglecting them.

🚨🚨 Huge breaking news from Brussels: Hungary has lifted its two-year-long veto on Ukraine's EU accession. Ukraine and Moldova will soon be able to open the first cluster of the accession process. The saga is over.

The Trump administration’s new regulations say having a medical condition alone isn’t enough to avoid Medicaid work requirements. “This is a recipe for disaster,” one patient advocate says. kffhealthnews.org/medicaid/tru...

Adults on Medicaid will be required to work 80 hours per month. The Trump administration says people who are sick will have to prove they are too sick to work to be exempt from the new work rules. n.pr/3RK4U7X

After ICE deported Wendy Hernandez Reyes, it turned her 3-year-old son Orlin over to her sister’s estranged partner, who tortured Orlin and beat him to death. I can’t say what I think should happen to those responsible without violating this website’s TOS. www.washingtonpost.com/immigration/...

This is so awful! #AbolishIce #PINKS

This is so outrageous. Roberts Court said in Callais finding of intentional discrimination could invalidate gerrymandered maps. Lower court found Alabama intentionally discriminated against Black voters. SCOTUS still allowed map eliminating majority Black district to go through

This is truly one of the worst things the court has done — both in terms of legitimacy and in terms of the law — since I have been covering the court.

BREAKING: CBS News has terminated 60 Minutes correspondent Scott Pelley's contract following his vocal disagreements with the new leadership under Bari Weiss.

Trump just named Bill Pulte the Acting Director of National Intelligence to replace Tulsi Gabbard. Pulte is a real estate developer whose grandfather is in the Epstein files for facilitating the laundering of Russian money to Donald Trump through a real estate deal apparently brokered by Epstein.

You sound unhinged if you say it out loud, but the acting Attorney General directed the IRS to stop all ongoing audits of Trump, but we know from leaked tax returns that Trump owes more than $100 million in unpaid taxes, so Trump is basically just giving himself a free hundred plus million dollars.

BREAKING: Blanche testifies that the Trump tax blanket immunity order portion of the slush fund “settlement” is NOT rescinded. Judge Williams, who has reopened the case, has said there IS NOT A SETTLEMENT. I imagine her probe into whether there was a fraud on the court will continue.

The heart of our constitutional crisis in one exchange between me and Sec. Mullin. When asked a simple question - if he will obey court orders - he says he will not because some court orders are "politicized". That's not how democracy works. And that's why we are in a crisis.
