More like "Operation Epstein Fury."

Dispatches from MN: it's getting really hard, guys. The media has left, the donations are drying up, and ICE is still here kidnapping people. It's hard not to be resentful that other people have the option of setting this aside for.other things.

the rest were buried before they died; you sail upon their tomb

The fabulous full line-up of "Daughters of Fire"! Online on 17th March, 7pm UK time #PoetryReading #WomensWriting Including some remarkable #PoetsOnBluesky: @kymminbarcelona.bsky.social @mariellisdunning.bsky.social @jirobb.bsky.social @gillcresearch.bsky.social @saraswatinagpal.bsky.social 🔥

What problem is Trump's new global 10% tariff meant to solve? If it's about leverage, ask: How much leverage do you get from a tariff that disappears in 150 days? If it's onshoring: Who builds new factories based on tariff that disappear before the factory is built? It's a tax. That's all it is.

Democrats can now credibly call for the repeal of the Trump tax cuts and the clawing back of the additional ICE funding as a way of offsetting the revenue loss from the ending of the illegal tariffs.

In most democracies Trump’s reckless and wild abuse of power through his tariffs would cause the government to fall or the leader to be removed. The imposition of these tariffs against the will of Congress, the courts, our allies, and the American people. It’s clear grounds for removal.

Among the most important signs of how SCOTUS might rein in a President's claim to emergency powers is: Chief Justice Roberts with Justices Gorsuch and Barrett on the 'major questions' doctrine. The three express deep skepticism of claims to open-ended emergency powers: 1/

NEW: Natasha Korecki at NBC reports that in light of the SCOTUS tariff ruling, Gov. Pritzker sent President Donald Trump an invoice of $8.6 billion.

BREAKING: Andrew Mountbatten-Windsor Arrested in Jeffrey Epstein Probe Mediaite

I'd prefer it not have taken decades but personally I like blows being struck against elite impunity and would like that for us in the US very much

I never saw such a sight in my life.

Absolutely amazing!

I told you they’d come after Veterans’ benefits. www.stripes.com/veterans/202...

There is nothing surprising in this.

“.. We could spend the whole day reacting to every buffoonish spectacle coming out of the White House, but that's exactly what they want: for us to lose focus … Don't be distracted by the noise; watch what they are doing to your rights while you stare at the screen.”

Towards thee I roll, thou all-destroying but unconquering whale; to the last I grapple with thee

I spent my childhood inside of American concentration camps. I know one when I see one. And that is what ICE is building.

Tomorrow, the Oversight Committee will have the opportunity to question Les Wexner about his ties to Jeffrey Epstein. Survivors told us from day one: follow the money. That is exactly what we intend to do.

The last three numbers I’ve seen put The Late Show somewhere between 2.1 and 2.5 million viewers a night. As of this writing, this upload has counted 3.7 million views.

What I heard in Munich? "Europe needs to emancipate itself from the US as fast as possible"

GOLDMAN: “.. the S&P 500 is off to its worst year of relative performance versus ACWI ex. US since 1995.” #$VEU (via Schwab)

As an attorney with occasional experience with the Equal Time rule, I can explain what's going on here and how the FCC's Brandon Carr is leveraging his position to force late night and daytime talk show hosts to exclude Democratic candidates. First I need to explain the Equal Time rule itself. 1/

Just FYI, @jimmykimmel.com trademarked it last week. Credit where it's due! youtu.be/4hrOPAstXns?...

Donald Trump is so focused on putting his name on everything, so let's grant him his wish by calling them the Trump-Epstein files. This is a massive cover-up by Trump and his cronies, and I won’t stop until we hold them accountable.

We can't fall into right-wing populism’s lie that the most vulnerable in society are to blame for wealth inequality in our countries. We need to build movements that tell the truth: the story of wealth inequality is not a cultural one, but a class one.

Giving this type of weapon system to CBP to use is like giving a kindergartner an RPG. It was always going to end badly. We’re just lucky that all that happened was a confirmed kill on a party balloon & a lot of embarrassment. This could’ve been much worse. 5/

House Democrats have been clear: ICE should operate just like any other law enforcement agency. Reform ICE now!

Even the GOP understands that Bondi is toxic, and that any appearance of being chummy with or enabling a pedophile protector is electoral death.

CNN: "Another photograph - these are notes AG Bondi brought to the hearing today. This shows a list of Rep. Jayapal's search history. Lawmakers are allowed to go to a DOJ facility to search unredacted files. We learned from this photo that the searches are apparently being tracked & read by the DOJ"

“Judge Edith Jones and Judge Kyle Duncan of the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Fifth Circuit okayed the Trump administration’s new rule denying detained immigrants the right to release on bond. Those detainees include children.” From HCR Letters

Highlighting the speaker who stood in front of the Surprise mayor and told him to consider what the Mayor of Ohrdruf must’ve thought before he died by suicide: “He might have thought ‘how is this my fault I had no jurisdiction over this’ maybe he said ‘this site was not subject to local zoning.’”

NEW: This isn't about "training." The two agents who murdered Alex Pretti - Jesus Ochoa and Raymundo Gutierrez - have been with Border Patrol for 8 and 12 years respectively. You can't reform CBP. Abolish ICE/CBP. www.propublica.org/article/alex...

That unsounded ocean you gasp in, is Life; those sharks, your foes; those spades, your friends

BREAKING: The two federal immigration agents who fired on Minneapolis protester Alex Pretti are identified in government records as Border Patrol agent Jesus Ochoa and Customs and Border Protection officer Raymundo Gutierrez.

BREAKING: A U.S. official has filed a bombshell complaint accusing Tulsi Gabbard of serious wrongdoing, so explosive and deeply classified they’ve triggered months of behind-the-scenes chaos over how (or whether) Congress should even be allowed to see them, according to the WSJ.

Billie Eilish: "No one is illegal on stolen land"

Reports are circulating about Craigslist ads offering $50 for people to watch the Melania movie 😂 and Snopes has confirmed the ad existed.

Happy Black History Month, Illinois.
