It has been proven that Putin killed his political rival Alexei Navalny with Ecuadorian dart frog poison.

My law firm is now litigating 85 voting and election cases in 40 states. This is the largest number of cases in the most states we have ever handled at one time. And, while Big Law firms mostly sit idly by, the need to protect elections in court is only growing.

None of this is normal

Moskowitz: By the president’s own metrics, what accomplishments does Noem have? • She’s holding up 200 miles of border wall. • She’s deported fewer people than Obama. • She’s not helping any of these red-state governors with their disasters. Why hasn’t he fired her?

Will it be national news? Will it cause performative outrage? Will he be censured? Nope. Forgotten by tomorrow.

Trump admin &their media allies embrace Great Replacemt theory that says Brown &Black migr to Europe &U.S. destroying “western civiliz.”…end of equal rts for migrants will enabl white Christian men to domin soc & pass laws that reinforc relig patriarch hierarchies. open.substack.com/pub/heatherc...

The SAVE America Act requires ID to vote. If you have a passport no problem you can vote but now the GOP are making it more difficult to get a passport...see the trend here? Call your senators everyday to tell them to vote no on the SAVE America Act voter suppression bill. bsky.app/profile/lmar...

NC5: “Criminal cases involving undocumented immigrants make up 2% of the overall crime in Tennessee — vast majority are traffic violations.” Undocumented violent crimes = two-tenths of 1% of the overall crime in TN. Remember that as Republicans paint this as our biggest issue.

second claim against Trump on slide — that “Epstein introduced [a victim] to Trump saying ‘This is a good one, huh’ &Trump responded ‘Yes’” —would appear to carry substant credibility within DOJ, bec it came from an Epstein-Maxwell victim whose testimony helped government convict Maxwell at trial.

President Zelensky has a +14% net favorability rating among Americans. Putin has a -72% net favorability rating among Americans. Guess which person Trump hangs a picture of in The White House...

After an @wired.com article listed a building owned by Freeman Webb among those leased to ICE, the @nashvillescene.com posts a statement from FW (their publisher) - now run by Rep. Bob Freeman (D) - saying they “actively concealed” that ICE is involved www.nashvillescene.com/news/pithint...

A child dying of cancer spent her final days fighting to free her wrongfully detained father from ICE custody.   This comes just weeks after a mother from Maryland was denied the right to be at her son’s side as he died from cancer.   Not one dime for this cruelty. www.cbsnews.com/amp/chicago/...

For months, ICE has made our state less safe. We’ve seen horrific shootings and repeated violations of Minnesotans’ constitutional rights. Anyone who believes in the 1st, 2nd, or 4th Amendments can’t stand by what ICE has done in Minnesota

They have members of the Miss Teen USA pageant confirm that Trump would come backstage while contestants as young as 15-years-old were undressed, then it gets into the “Calendar Parties” in New York at about 23:00 in the video. www.dailykos.com/stories/2026...

On top of the constitutional issues, this is obviously a department that (a) has lost its way and (b) has way too much money. Any law enforcement agency that has the inclination or time to do this, much less both, needs to be obliterated and replaced by something else with entirely different staff.

‘A deliberate policy to harm children’: Attorney on conditions children face in ICE detention - MS NOW

Shameful stuff

"officials in the Trump-Vance administration and others close to the White House paint a stark portrait of a president attempting to save face and declare “Mission Accomplished,” as one Trump adviser ironically puts it, after starting a war that Team Trump knows it’s losing badly."

“The renovation project is estimated to cost nearly $300 million in taxpayer funds, according to an overview of the construction costs from last year reviewed by the Journal. That figure is larger than the $200 million estimate Trump laid out last week” apple.news/A6SryaXl9RX-...

Despite ample funding, the agency halted payments in October. They may not resume for several months.

Massie: "The DOJ wants to say they're done w/ this Epstein document production. The problem is they've taken down documents before we were able to go over & look at unredacted versions. They took down some of the most significant ones. They can't keep those down after they've already produced them."

The impact, thus far, in Minneapolis: This corrupt administration and Fake Law Enforcement have done enough damage. To date: $203 Million Dollars.

The enduring wisdom of @djrothkopf.bsky.social : we must batten down the hatches of democracy. The next transition in Washington will not be a normal one.

would it be possible for Congress to make the shadow docket illegal, how are the designs for these interfaces controlled

Conservatives seem intent on repeatedly proving that their "law and order" is anything but

Despicable: …”Their lawyers said none of the deportees had any history of violent crime.” Trump is on an unyielding path to not only circumvention U.S. court orders, but to also rewrite the rule of law. I believe he believes be can dissolve the U.S. Constitution. Thanks for sharing this, Chris.

Subscribe to Law Dork, where I wrote this five months ago: “The Trump administration again appears to be ignoring federal and international law in an effort to send people to countries that the U.S. could not deport them to directly.” www.lawdork.com/p/ghana-refo...

That’s not to say the reporting isn’t important—it is. And it’s obviously not to defend the administration. This is, however, the way they have been doing this. The main news here is (1) they still are doing this, and (2) they’ve reached some sort of sketchy deal with Cameroon to send people there.

This is what an authoritarian police state does

NYT: Trump secretly deported 9 migrants despite court orders to not remove them to their home nations. So, he sent them to prison in Cameroon: www.nytimes.com/2026/02/14/w...

SCOTUS effectively OK’ed third-country removals as the Trump admin is using them on the shadow docket, staying lower court orders reining them in. Further, the specific questions raised here — about refoulement — have come up before, like in this case: www.lawdork.com/p/ghana-refo...

Almost every deformity of our politics, economy and culture are downstream of this essential problem. A key element of our great elite impunity problem is that the ultrawealthy avoid taxation, in simple and legal fashion. (Because we have the wrong definition of income in our obsolete tax code.)

Our society is broken.

Also, note that even other huge waves of European immigrants aren’t included in Musk’s monocultural vision, such as Italian, German and Jewish immigrants from the 19th and 20th centuries. The American Multiculture > The MAGA Monoculture.

We must speak plainly about the agenda Elon Musk & other MAGA leaders are pushing. It’s white nationalism. There’s no room for Black, Hispanic/Latino, Asian, Native, Jewish or all other Americans in Musk’s monocultural vision. Multiculturalism is superior. We can’t allow Musk & others to end it.

Musk is a malevolent force in American life, driven by white nationalism and incredibly influential given his obscene wealth. He's a supervillain. But people get that. He's deeply unpopular, with an approval rating in the mid-30s with Trump. We just need political leaders willing to take him on.

Musk is a white supremacist, friend of our enemies, a liar, a lunatic and a threat to the US. No company owned or controlled by him should be permitted to do business with the US government.

Elon Musk, a pro-apartheid South African, may have come here believing the US was a bastion of English-Scots-Irish culture. (By the way, were the Irish welcomed by the English?) My grandparents and so many others came here because of the promise of freedom, tolerance, equal rights, and opportunity.

Put most bluntly: If you want nice things, and if you want to keep our constitutional republic, then we must all work together to 𝐈𝐌𝐏𝐄𝐀𝐂𝐇. 𝐓𝐇𝐄𝐌. 𝐀𝐋𝐋. There is simply no alternative. (7/7)

... Real trials of charges against Bondi and Noem and Vance and Trump. With real evidence and witnesses. Make clear to that jury of 100 that the world will forever remember their votes and whether they were faithful to the Constitution they've sworn to uphold.

I think we are going to have a Democratic-controlled Senate. And all we will need for the leadership of that Democratic Senate to do is hold actual, real, impeachment trials. As the Constitution requires. Not the bullshit fake trials like the ones that the Senate held in 2020 and 2021...
