EXCLUSIVE: Senior DHS officials double down on arresting and detaining refugees in new memo. Hours after DOJ filed the new memo in court in Minnesota, a magistrate judge denied Law Dork's request for greater public access in the case — including remote electronic docket access.

BREAKING: The Department of Education has ended its directive that attempted to restrict diversity, equity, and inclusion efforts in schools nationwide. This is a victory for academic freedom and education equity.

New reporting by Democracy Docket suggests that Patriot Grassroots’ canvassers also crossed a line in Missouri, where volunteers gathering signatures to put a GOP-backed gerrymander to a statewide vote said they were harassed by out-of-state paid agitators. www.democracydocket.com/news-alerts/...

NEW — An obscure Navy contractor program is making Trump’s plans to quickly build out and supply immigrant concentration camps around the country a reality. Here I explain WEXMAC TITUS, an acronym you need to understand:

Voting rights groups contend in a new lawsuit that an Ohio law signed late last year relies on shaky data to remove voters from the rolls when federal law doesn’t allow it — and without providing notice to the voters facing removal ohiocapitaljournal.com/2026/02/17/v...

I don't think "invading a country, kidnapping its President, then stealing its oil" is what I would call "diplomacy." But perhaps I'm not a political science expert like some folks.

"And again I say unto you, It is easier for a camel to go through the eye of a needle, than for a rich man to enter into the kingdom of God."

JUDGE: ... and then Mr Manson didn't you order Susan Atkins to cut open Sharon Tate's body and rip the fetus from her womb? MANSON: Yer honor, The Dow is over 50,000 right now. The S&P at almost 7,000, and the NASDAQ is smashing records! That’s what we should be talkin' about!"

MAGAs are always like, "You think you're better than us!" I am. I don't support a rapist, and I don't celebrate lawless, masked thugs indiscriminately terrorizing entire communities all to distract from said rapist. This is a human test, and you're failing. I win.

Anyone else sensing a pattern here?

Protesters in Minneapolis. Survivors of Epstein’s sex crimes. A grand jury in Washington, D.C. These are the true leaders of the resistance to Trump’s authoritarian project. Surely it’s time for our elected officials to hurry to catch up.

Trump’s Military Spending By The Numbers

Planned Parenthood clinics in Utah resumed family planning services after the Trump administration unfroze millions in federal funds it had blocked for nine months ohiocapitaljournal.com/2026/01/15/r...

OK. The array of things Trump might try to do is incredibly broad, in a way that would seem very implausible just a year ago, because he is evil, demented, egotistical, and stupid: a comic-book tyrant. Similarly, the array of things his cultists would support is frighteningly broad. /1

Hi Ska friends. I know times are hard for everyone but if you could take a moment and read my story. Any amount you could donate would be greatly appreciated. If you are unable to donate just sharing my story would help. Thanks. -Matt Vest gofund.me/f09292842

We are far past the stage of permissiveness with white-supremacist violence inside DHS. We are witnessing ICE transition into a death squad. This cannot be reformed. The only question is who will fight to abolish it, and who will accommodate it instead.

Protests are spreading across the country as Trump's thugs reveal their unconstrained violence. We will not succumb to despair or doom, or become paralyzed with fear. We will win and we will rebuild an America that upholds democracy and the rule of law.

Commentary: Population decline in Ohio could be an indicator for quality of life problems. Ohio has a high poverty rate, low bachelor’s attainment and low life expectancy. It means Ohio looks more like Mississippi and West Virginia than Montana or Vermont. ohiocapitaljournal.com/2026/01/12/i...

We are NOT the same. Democrats are out protesting and fighting for our country and MAGA are licking boots.

According to the MAGA crowd, you aren’t supposed to protest. You aren’t supposed to “yell at” or “challenge” the militarized federal agents occupying your city. And anyone who wants to be “protected” should probably just stay “in their homes.”

I am, in fact, triggered by someone being murdered by the Gestapo and our government lying about it and celebrating the murder. It’s time for decent people to decide where they stand — with the Gestapo and its supporters, the juvenile shitposting government, or with America.

Decided to pick up Session for cheap on PSN. So far, this is anything but fun. Does it actually get better? Or is it pretty much just a slog the whole time?

In November, PUCO ordered FirstEnergy companies to pay roughly $250 million for violations linked to Ohio’s largest-ever utility corruption scandal, far short of the relief sought by consumer and industry groups that would've topped half a billion dollars ohiocapitaljournal.com/2026/01/07/a...

Khanna: "The problem here is there are rich and powerful people who either engaged in this abuse, covered it up, or we're on this island. What the American people want to know is who are these people? Instead of holding them accountable, Pam Bondi is breaking the law."

CBS News(max) is officially cooked. Bari Weiss killed a whole-ass network.

On a scale of “Bad Dad” to “DOTY”, how would I rank in introducing my 5 year old to Night of the Living Dead? And is it a bad sign that she’s obsessed with it now?

Minutes ago today the Trump regime abruptly cancelled citizenship ceremonies for several immigrants in Boston. THEY CANCELLED CITIZENSHIP CEREMONIES. These immigrants followed every rule & did everything right—Trump banned them anyway. All are from Black & brown majority nations. This Is Fascism.

Marjorie Taylor Greene is resigning from Congress. Now when people ask me to name one good thing Trump has done I FINALLY have an answer.

We spent a year investigating billionaires for @washingtonpost.com. We found: the wealthiest 100 Americans gave $1.1 billion to influence the 2024 elections — 140x more than they did in 2000. And almost all of that giving boosted Republicans. washingtonpost.com/politics/int...

How embarrassing for Chuck Schumer, Kirstin Gillibrand, Cory Booker, & NY Reps Grace Meng, Dan Goldman, Ritchie Torres, Greg Meeks, Tom Suozzi, & Laura Gillen, that even Donald Trump endorsed Zohran Mamdani before they did.😐 Corporate Democrats just love snatching defeat from the jaws of victory.

These images are a snapshot of the hate I receive regularly due to rising anti-Muslim and Islamophobic rhetoric from across the political spectrum. This endangers us all—and corporate media refuses to report on it. Here, I document what legacy media won’t: www.qasimrashid.com/p/anti-musli...
