This is an absolute scandal; the United States government is deliberately consolidating all deportation cases of an ethnic minority that the President has called "garbage" in front of a handpicked group of judges and with dramatically accelerated timeline. A lawsuit was filed yesterday against it.

Ground beef costs $7 per pound and millions can't afford health insurance.

Trump: "See, this pen right here. This pen is an interesting example. It's the same thing. So this pen is very inexpensive. But it writes well. I like it. But I can't have the pen the way it was. You know what it is. I don't want to give too much publicity but they do treat me well. Sharpie."

Trump: "The judges are really hurting this country. Justice Roberts doesn't like when I say it, but the judges are really hurting this country. And frankly, the justices. The Supreme Court has really hurt our country too."

Trump: "Actually, I'm the highest polling person. After the presidency, I may go to Venezuela and run against Delcy. I may run against Delcy. They like me in Venezuela."

"Seniors today are having a very hard time getting their benefits. Why? Social Security has pushed out 7,700 workers since Trump took office."

Donald Trump Jr. bought into a company. Three months later, his dad's Pentagon handed them $620 million in taxpayer dollars. Democrats forced a vote to subpoena Don Jr. today to come clean about this shady deal. But Republicans blocked it and even shut down the hearing to protect him.

If we're not affected by this, then why are gas prices through the roof, my dude? For the lulz?

I don’t envy the parents of dead servicemen listening to this.

Trump: I used a mail in ballot. You know why? Because I'm President of the United States, I did a mail in ballot for Florida because I felt I should be here. Reporter: But you were in Palm Beach

Fuel prices in two U.S. states have surged to an all-time high as the national average cost per gallon has risen in the weeks following the conflict in Iran.

Well alright then. He’s just admitting it.

hey republicans, answer for this blatant racism coming from you party

Trump’s outright bigotry against an entire ethnic minority continues to stain this country. It’s gutter racism with real consequences; the government itself has been ordered to target this minority group for special disfavor.

EXCLUSIVE: The Minnesota Secretary of State's Office has received a grand jury subpoena ordering it to turn over certain individual voter records, as part of a federal investigation into whether non-citizens are registered or have unlawfully cast ballots.

The news has moved on, but ICE is still in Minneapolis. My neighbors are still patrolling streets, driving strangers to work, and providing aid. As a photojournalist at @propublica.org, I wanted to know: What do they look like in their daily lives? So I picked up my camera 👇

Nearly half of Americans say it’s difficult to afford food, with 52% spending more than last year, according to LendingTree.

Despicable.

As a reminder: Flynn pleaded guilty in the first Trump term; was pardoned by Trump; he sued for politically motivated prosecution; and now Trump II admin settled and agreed to pay him an undisclosed sum of taxpayer $$$

@wilwheaton.net excellent kind sir

BREAKING: For the 11th time, Republicans have blocked Democrats from paying TSA. Republicans have been given ELEVEN chances to send TSA agents their paychecks, but they refuse.

Note that DOJ relied on a geofence to chase down the Cities Church protesters, then fucked up the analysis of it.

Breaking WaPo: Trump showed a classified map he retained from his first term in office to passengers on a 2022 private plane flight and retained another record so sensitive that only six high-ranking government officials had access to it, according to a prosecution memo released to Congress.

All of these tech companies are on the verge of imploding thanks to OpenAI. On top of that, they've destroyed all of their products by forcibly integrating them with AI, insulted their customers, and pushed people to adopt completely different platforms just to get away from their garbage.

The SAVE Act would affect my own personal ability to vote. It would require some extra work to get the documents I need, but not everyone has the time or motivation to do that. Just getting to the polling stations to vote can be challenging for people. May our presence be loud this Saturday #NoKings

Man, the effects of the ICE occupation are vast and ongoing. A family I am helping, like so many others, is trying to figure out how to rebuild their lives. Trying to make rent, needing to find work, adjusting to an existence without family members. There may be less ICE but these are huge wounds.

What this means is that Sora was losing so much money that the one billion from Disney was a rounding error. Staggering losses that would boggle one's mind on how OpenAI will ever find a business model that is profitable.

Which they may or may not receive. 🤡

The assault on the 14th Amendment is an assault on every freedom we have as Americans.

ICE violently detain father legally working in U.S.—injure daughter's leg & rip out her nose piercing. "I told them that I was a U.S. citizen," she said. "We don't care," agents retort. "That doesn't matter. Agents were "dressed in everyday clothing"—and refused to show ID. Lebanon, Tennessee

Fascinating! Remember, when Trump left office, he did not have any crypto interests and Trump Media did not exist. His businesses were mainly real estate and hospitality. And he was looking at a massive amount of debt coming due.

I repeatedly said in 2023 and 2024 that if that case ever made it to trial they had him dead to rights. History will forever judge us for allowing him to avoid accountability.

This case is a good reminder that even "smaller" Supreme Court decisions can have multi-billion-dollar consequences. The 2018 decision striking down the federal ban on sports betting was received as, at most, a medium-sized ruling that barely broke into the news cycle. And, well, here we are now.

The slowest and biggest smash-and-grab in the history of the world
