Also, one of my favorite business movies

The 60 Minutes segment on CECOT provides graphic testimony of the systemic torture suffered by migrants forcibly deported there. This Administration lacks humanity and flaunts the rule of law. Congress must stop funding this shameful policy and hold hearings on the abuse.

Big ups to Marty Lederman @martylederman.bsky.social who flagged this argument that SCOTUS relied on (that regular forces refer to military forces, not federal law enforcement).

This map shows the states with the highest student loan delinquency rates

Update: Speaking of student loan defaults, apparently the majority of the top 10 states experiencing the highest SPIKES in delinquency rates are either red or swing states.

Big mistake

No matter what, January 20, 2029 is the latest day of his presidency. I am planning my outfit now. Perhaps a festive hat to have at the ready should the finale air earlier than that.

On the Larry Nassar letter from Epstein. FBI did request handwriting analysis of it suggesting they were not convinced it was actually from Epstein. That is in the files I believe. But what is NOT available (as far as I have seen as I post this) is what the analysis found.

Winning, for now! “The justices’ order is preliminary, but it blocks the Trump administration for now from ordering the state-based military force to the Chicago area” “Clarence Thomas, Samuel A. Alito Jr. and Neil M. Gorsuch — noted their dissents.” www.nytimes.com/2025/12/23/u...

*DEPARTMENT OF JEN: SURE, JAN. *DEPARTMENT OF JEN: SHOW US THE DECLINATION MEMO.

Among the newly-released Epstein files. This Justice Dept email from Jan 2020 'I wanted to let you know that the flight records we received yesterday reflect that Donald Trump traveled on Epstein's private jet many more times than previously has been reported"

Julie has been covering this longer than most. The DOJ is not following the law. #TrumpEpsteinCoverUp

The future of the Heritage Foundation looks more like Project Veritas than a thinktank.

Important

It's time to leave your lucrative office job and go work at a factory, where the robots have taken all of the jobs

uhhhhhh

*DEPARTMENT OF JEN: SURE, JAN. *DEPARTMENT OF JEN: SHOW US THE DECLINATION MEMO.

A funny thing about the Epstein law is that if there's actually a prosecutorial memo exonerating Trump, DOJ is required to disclose it without redactions except for the names of victims.

Time to revisit that law journal article by Kathleen Sullivan on unconstitutional conditions. Unconstitutional Conditions, 102 Harv. L. Rev. 1415 (1989)

It’s interesting that the administration wants you to know that Bari Weiss is in league with them.

Welcome to my New York nightmare. May she rest in peace “A woman was killed when scaffolding collapsed on her in East Harlem Tuesday morning after it was struck by a van in a chain-reaction crash sparked by a private sanitation truck driver, police said.” www.nydailynews.com/2025/12/23/w...

I love @jentaub.bsky.social's legal analysis, and her YouTube show is a great way to get sharp framing on the legal morass of our current political moment. Definitely subscribe. It's free.

I am so sick of this deranged and evil blowhard.

Everything is working smoothly, I see.

NEW — Based on the aired ‘60 Minutes’ CECOT segment, several of Bari Weiss’s stated reasons to stop the story are inaccurate. She said the segment did not present the admin’s argument for deporting people to CECOT. It does. She said the segment did not detail deportee criminal histories. It does.

(Ahem) CharlesGaba.substack.com

This could wind up being the most-watched newsmagazine segment in television history!! Congratulations to the Ellisons and Bari Weiss!!!

I highly recommend watching this segment, not just because the CBS News execs and the White House didn’t want you to, but because these men were tortured and they deserved to have their voices heard.

ooooops

Oh, FFS

The redactions in the Epstein files are not consistent. In one place it looks like victim names are redacted including redacting the name of an Epstein girlfriend and then in other documents victim names are everywhere. ⚖️🤨◼️◼️◼️

Even BILL CLINTON is saying he doesn’t care if the full release of the files implicates Bill Clinton. Amazing.

There's always a Tweet.

Cool how we are smuggling domestic news in over the border from canada and people having to share it on bulletproof hosting providers to stop the government and media owners taking it down

I don’t mean to sound extreme, but I don’t think we should have torture camps for people with criminal records either.

All of these bootlegged copies of the 60 Minutes segment flooding my feed (saying, ‘Watch it quick! Before it disappears!’) makes me feel like I’m in the Soviet Union and just got some black market foreign newspaper I need to hide under a floorboard in my house. This is where America is now

Needed this today!

Dumb & dumber with their idiotic war plans will not save this presidency. We will not rally around the flag for this racist, moronic, mendacious, wanna be fascist www.youtube.com/live/Q-a8sbz...

This is so ridiculous, even for this absurd administration.

Who needs "Fat Leonard" when you have Dumb Donald?

Why aren't the CEOs complaining? Perhaps the tax cuts that personally benefit them are worth their shareholders taking a hit

3/ On left, Bari Weiss states that she spiked the 60 Minutes piece because: "The admin has argued in court that detainees are due 'judicial review.'" On right, Pam Bondi Memorandum states: "An alien determined to be an Alien Enemy and ordered removed ... is not entitled to ... judicial review."
