The people of Chicago won Trump, Kristi Noem and ICE lost Not only did Greg Bovino and his agents leave the city in disgrace A judge ruled that they must release as many as 615 unjustly detained immigrants Plus-they must stop pressuring immigrants to voluntarily leave Never Stop Resisting

It’s just… a really bizzare story - and not the first time a decision by this boneheaded administration led to a VP security detail accident! Trump’s Live I-5 Bombing hit Vance’s motorcade.

Apparently JD Vance’s team ran over and nearly killed a police officer? While they were on their way to a fundraiser? And it’s receiving barely any national coverage? What the hell happened?

Happy Monday Watchdogs! Here’s your weekly reminder that NO ONE is above the law… not even the president.

Instead of “blitz,” this might be better described by other military terms—FUBAR or SNAFU. The cost and human toll can be tallied in numbers of disrupted lives, of families torn apart, of wrongfully detained and terrorized people, and of traumatized children. contrarian.substack.com/p/the-chicag...

"Avelo’s ICE flights appear to be a fiasco, defined by the poor planning, cruel treatment, and serious safety lapses endemic to “ICE Air,” the network of charters and military planes that transport shackled migrants. Just last week, a mid-flight loss of cabin pressure left six people injured."

It turns out the real criminals are our government officials.

The City Bar condemns recent remarks by the Deputy Attorney General in which he described the Administration as being at “war” with the federal judiciary and invited young lawyers to “join the fight” against purported “activist judges.” Read the statement here: bit.ly/4nWdoDd

Your daily reminder that the fossil fuel industry is propped up by billions of dollars in U.S. government subsidies and a multimillion dollar campaign to spread climate disinformation. 💵

This is what America looks like without an Attorney General. This is what America looks like when the Justice Department is the President’s private law firm.

SNAP is a lifeline for workers in low-wage jobs. Meanwhile, CEOs are paid 280x as much as the typical worker. Don’t be angry at workers for using food stamps. Be angry at the corporations paying them so little that they need them.

There has never been a clearer example of the fact that we do not have a legislature in the United States right now. Trump tells them to vote no, so they all vote no. Then Trump changes his mind and they all change their votes. That is autocracy. Vote them out!

"Trump ran by by dangling these carrots in front of poor people in America. But once he actually took power, the the optics, the gold, the opulence that he surrounds himself in puts on full display that this guy does not give a flying fuck about the people that he pandered to on the campaign trail."

Donald Trump’s crypto legislation promises to make stablecoins the basis of the next financial catastrophe, @davidfrum.bsky.social argues.

Trump is blatantly weaponizing the justice system to attack his political enemies while handing out pardons to his crooked allies and those who will commit violence on his behalf. So much for “law and order.” [Cartoon by Mike Luckovich]

A must read from @nycbarassociation.bsky.social www.nycbar.org/press-releas... "... such language escalates rhetorical attacks on the judiciary into direct delegitimization, increasing risks to norms of separation of powers, judicial independence, and public confidence in the courts."

Excellent. Trump and his thugs are acting unlawfully in order to make everyone fearful. Worth listening to Governor Stein!

Service ends, the oath doesn’t. See why NSL4A members are speaking out to protect our democracy. Watch the full video here: youtu.be/6AN6fAfvz2I?...

A counterproductive and unlawful U.S. policy: Several States have now curtailed counter-narcotics intelligence support and/or called out U.S. boat strikes as illegal: Canada Colombia EU France Mexico Netherlands? UK We discuss their legal obligations that forbid support for boat strikes.

Disgusting *Trump is a vengeful SOB *Trump cares nothing about wasting American tax payers money on frivolous law suits *Trump continues to leech off of American society by enriching himself w insider trading *Get Trump out of our WH *Trump is a ________ *Trump does not make America great at all

Trumpers/GOP really do want to destroy everything, don’t they? They want to do whatever the hell they want with no regard to whether it would be a smart move.

Trump is trying to gaslight us into thinking costs going down—but Americans can plainly see the price of their groceries are skyrocketing.

Kavanaugh and Coney-Barrett never argued a case in court either. 😒

They’re so cooked. As in…the files…they’re juiced, baked, stripped, squeezed, cleansed. www.wsj.com/politics/pol...

The man President Trump wanted to be attorney general was allegedly paying for sex with a 17-year old girl who was working at a McDonald’s, saving up for braces, and partly living at a homeless shelter. trib.al/JekxdoT

The Big Beautiful Boycott is a nonpartisan nationwide movement reclaiming the power of the people through collective action. Every dollar is a choice, and by withholding our spending we are taking a stand for fairness, democracy, and human dignity – one dollar at a time.

Are we great again yet?

Billionaires are raking in the money while Trump and Republicans turn away from everyday Americans struggling to cover expenses. It doesn’t have to be this way and we should not allow it.

As the FBI’s deputy director, Bongino receives some of the country’s most sensitive secrets, including the President’s Daily Brief. His ascent to that position without passing a standard bureau background check is unprecedented, insiders say. By @williamturton.bsky.social @chrisbing.bsky.social

Working Families Party We’re building a multiracial party of working people to transform our country.

All veterans need to continue to speak up about what ICE and CBP are doing. We did not fight for our country to see masked federal agents driving around in unmarked vans terrorizing our communities. This is authoritarianism and it must be called out. Take off your masks you cowards!

“A democracy whose citizens operate with fundamentally different understandings of the past and its implications cannot sustain itself,” @clintsmithiii.bsky.social writes:

Folks who have experience being around the elderly with dementia will find this familiar. Belligerence and aggression are common symptoms.

This has been one of the biggest misuses of the National Guard in our nation’s history.

Schumer reached out to leading presidential contenders to try and mute criticism of the deal, calling Josh Shapiro, Andy Beshear, JB Pritzker, and Gavin Newsom While Schumer voted against it, the Dems behind the shutdown deal said the minority leader was aware of their plan. trib.al/MZu6eBQ

We have to make it abundantly clear that racists, bigots and conspiracy theorists have no place in our party. Don’t be fooled by her.

A big tent is fine. Great, even. But there still needs to be a sign at the entrance that reads "no bigots, no racists, no nazis"

This is outrageous. We cannot tolerate the racism that is being spread by Hatred-filled Trump and his ilk. Nobody wins when there’s racism.

White students shouted racial slurs and carried a confederate flag leading up to Homecoming at a Georgia school They faced no repercussions Their Black classmates-along with white allies-planned to protest the following day The Black students-alone-were suspended thehill.com/changing-ame...

Leger Fernandez: They’re going to get a million dollars because you were related to or somehow connected with conspirators? And that’s what people should be outraged about — they are treating themselves to the trough of corruption that Trump is laying out.

As the Administration continues its war on American citizens, military personnel needs to think carefully what their values and responsibilities are.

If the GOP Congress abdicates their responsibilities, why should they receive salaries and benefits while the rest of us are suffering from Trump/GOP budget cuts?

It would be great if our own government officials were law abiding if they expect citizens to act accordingly.

It’s pretty simple. When you do a huge armed midnight raid on an apartment building rounding up and terrorizing children and later find out there were no criminals there everyone involved resigns in shame and we have loud showy Congressional hearings.

ICE is not acting as a law enforcement agency. To do that, you must follow the law. It’s been clear for a long time…they’re not.

Agents rappelled from a Black Hawk helicopter in a massive show of force. Authorities said Tren de Aragua “terrorists” had taken over the building. But after the cameras were gone, federal prosecutors did not charge anyone. With @frontlinepbs.bsky.social & @blockclubchi.bsky.social
