our lawyers drafting this motion

New: the ex-defendants in the dropped Broadview Six case have filed a motion calling for payment of attorney fees & legal expenses. Earlier today, U.S. Attorney Andrew Boutros' office issued a "special report" over his grand jury appearances, incl. before the grand jury in the Broadview Six case.

This is a bit misleading. The $83/hour figure assumes a normal 40 hour/week work schedule. They make about $200/hour, when you break it down to actual hours in session. Often a hell of a lot more than that. Plus travel, per diem, diamond health insurance... Giving themselves raises is fucking insane

Couldn't agree more ...

My kids watched me cast my vote today — for myself — but really for them and every child in South Carolina. As a pediatrician and a mom, I’ve spent my career fighting for kids. Now I’m asking South Carolinians to trust me to take that fight to the Senate.

Either the art directors at these right wing outlets are secret DSA members or this man has simply never had a bad photo.

1. Billionaire and anti-trans activist Elon Musk has confirmed that he bought twitter, in part, because of his trans daughter Vivian. This is the first direct confirmation from Musk. He has since used it to wage war against transgender people. Subscribe to support our journalism.

Trump has named Bill Pulte, a private equity exec and the chair of the Federal Housing Finance Agency, to be his acting director of national intelligence. Pulte has no national security experience. His only experience is being loyal to Trump and going after his enemies. Be warned.

Brands during Pride Month: 🌈 Amazon: we abuse all of our warehouse workers equally, regardless of gender or sexual orientation 🌈 OpenAI: your gay AI companion may tell you to kill yourself, but it's not because you're a tranny don't worry 🌈 Raytheon: our Tomahawk missiles don't discriminate

Trump is dismantling the ocean monitoring system that tracked temperature and flooding. maritime-executive.com/article/trum...

Uninterested in leading a pile-on but no, AI does not “have access” to everything ever published. Not archival material, obviously, but not secondary material either. Nor across times nor languages. AI is not human knowledge personified. It’s exactly not that, in fact. It’s not even a search engine.

Let’s find an unqualified nepo-baby with zero experience in military, intelligence or government service who repeatedly says dumb things and has spent his time as housing finance director trying to prosecute Dems & make him DNI. What a joke this admin is.

#OTD Gilbert Baker was born. An LGBTQ+ activist and artist, he created the Pride flag, one of the most enduring symbols of visibility and liberation. #TheMarchContinues

That about sums it up!!!

Following reporting by KYUK, ProPublica and @npr.org, lawmakers tripled the funding Alaska would allocate toward school construction and maintenance. The budget increase would still only cover about 13% of what school districts requested.

Shoutout to @legaleagle.tv and the incredible @lizdye.bsky.social for covering our case and the corruption behind it: youtu.be/dx4NVLqSEoI?...

The fact that he both did this AND has the financial ability to do this shows you exactly why the rich assholes just giggle at the stupid shit trump does. They get their tax breaks and still have the ability to run away to protect themselves. It doesn't make a fucking bit of difference to them.

EXACTLY 👇 THIS.......

NJSP’s use of force at Delaney Hall was an unnecessary response to peaceful protest. New Jersey must prioritize the dignity and humanity of all people, including those detained by the mass deportation agenda – not mimic the dangerous and overly militarized tactics of the federal government.

Violence against women is really part of the MAGA brand.

A lot of people are noticing that Steyer has spent $200 million trying to destroy Becerra while leaving Hilton largely untouched. And it isn’t sitting well with folks. Spending a fortune to do the Republican’s job for him is starting to look like an epic miscalculation.

The internet sometimes can’t get enough of something. Telling Stephen Miller to shut the fuck up is one of those things. www.advocate.com/politics/dem...

Wow, Trump was declaring victory in Iran 2 months ago!

They made her a cake at work lmao

Katie Miller is beefing with my fiancée on twitter and it has backfired badly for Miller because — and this might not be popular to say on here, but — my fiancée is way hotter

Especially in this moment, a "private reprimand" "was not a remotely sufficient punishment for the subject judge’s misconduct—not because of the affair, but because of the subject judge’s dishonesty and their transparent attempt to throw one of their own law clerks under the bus." Me @ "One First":

I think Democrats should come out and say Blanche's "settlement" and the Slush Fund generally is one act in a continuing January 6 conspiracy, extending statutes of limitation for another 3 years.

RIP "The Late Show With Steven Colbert"!!! A great last show! Hoping CBS continues to experience even more loss of viewership after this!

Kat Abughazaleh carrying all that shit (because pockets for women’s dress pants are a joke) is all of us

You know I despise Trump with the fury of 1,000 suns. You know I left my whole life behind to stop him. And you know that when I get to Congress, I will file Articles of Impeachment on Day 1, and I will not stop until he is in a damn orange jumpsuit

Data Centers do NOT have a right to your water. ZERO. Thank you, @aoc.bsky.social

Exactly. #EpsteinFiles #EpsteinClass

1/3 The fact that trump wants something built that represents a thing designed warn against everything trump is doing, and how he's doing it, and no one seems to be pointing that out absolutely fucking astounds me. Even during the Roman Empire, which is EXACTLY where he thinks the meaning lies, they

Kat Abughazaleh has the chance to do the funniest thing

The first 20 seconds of AOC holding up a mason jar of filthy drinking water will become the image most Americans conjure up when they hear "data center." Tech is rekt!

To keep people up to date: six people who exercised their first amendment rights had their lives overturned and were forced to pay hundreds of thousands of dollars in attorneys fees because of clear prosecutorial misconduct.

The DOJ lawyers on this Broadview Six case here in Chicago need to be held accountable for what sure looks like another case of unethical, if not illegal behavior….

This is the best summary of Musk’s entire business empire that I can imagine.

If you watch one clip today, watch this one! As if you don't have enough to be outraged over! The decline of our public spending on things that benefit the majority of us is directly related to this chart.

Today May 2st marks 30 years since Soundgarden released their sixth studio album, and my favorite Soundgarden album, Down On the Upside.

Considering that this DNC "autopsy" didn't even address the issue of Gaza and how it impacted the 2024 race, let alone offer any solutions going forward, I can see why this thing was never released. www.cnn.com/2026/05/21/p...

i was asked recently if i thought clarence thomas saw himself as a villain. i said yes and this is a good example. he is totally bloodthirsty and loves the idea of the government executing people.
