Harvard Law School’s Jack Goldsmith: “In short, if the Post’s facts are correct, it appears that Special Operations Forces committed murder when the ‘two men were blown apart in the water, as the Post put it.’” open.substack.com/pub/executiv...

A chapter in Hegseth’s book is literally titled “More Lethality, Less Lawyers.” It’s almost as if there were signs!

Hey, @bennet.senate.gov @reptedlieu.bsky.social you were quick to condemn the violence yesterday. Good. Can you do so today?

Straight-up sociopath. Asked about a Guard member who’s dead because of his bullshit and it takes him 30 seconds to make it all about how great he is.

Q: You said this suspect was flown in under the Biden admin. But was he granted asylum under your administration? TRUMP: Uh, when it comes to asylum, when they're flown in, it's very hard to get them out no matter how you want to do it. But we're gonna be getting them all out now. *slams table*

This is the scandal. Trump isn’t targeting dangerous people. He’s targeting peaceful immigrants. Almost exclusively.

“You’re a stupid person” — Trump lashes out at a reporter who presses him on the fact that the suspected DC shooter was actually thoroughly vetted before he was let in the US from Afghanistan

They're going after green card holders. They will come after citizens next. www-nbcnews-com.cdn.ampproject.org/c/s/www.nbcn...

Oh snap

Oh our troops and their families will love this. Who wanted a war for Xmas? www.telegraph.co.uk/us/news/2025...

Trump didn’t read before posting: “OUR AMERICAN CODE OF MILITARY OBEDIENCE REQUIRES THAT, SHOULD ORDERS AND THE LAW EVER CONFLICT, OUR OFFICERS MUST OBEY THE LAW.”

You can tell who has the upper hand here since Trump is kissing his a—!

Sure is telling that the President considers it punishable by death for people to restate the law.

A client’s backdoor neighbor was here legally on a work visa. He always helps her with her car. She says he’s one of the kindest, most generous people you would meet…

NEW: As New York braces for a potential surge in ICE activity, Tom Homan renewed his threat to send more agents to New York. That and more with @la-ley.bsky.social: www.nytimes.com/2025/11/18/n...

Sounds like he thought he had a get out of jail free card on the underage sex charge since he was ICE www.cbsnews.com/minnesota/ne...

Trump’s plan risks worsening educational opportunities for rural families and the poor, creates needless opportunities for the further enrichment of the wealthy, and drastically cuts support for public education. www.thebulwark.com/p/the-republ...

I urge members of the legal profession to realize that prosecuting individuals who seek to overturn the constitutional order is not "retaliation" in any normatively significant sense.

Loving this so much. Just soaking it in. Next week SCOTUS might fk it all up again.

This is something I keep being reminded of. Mango Mussolini might have immunity, but anyone beneath him doesn’t … until he pardons them.

I think the level of sexual abuse that is going to be coming out of ICE would put the Boston archdiocese and Penn State to shame

He created his own trap

NEWS: This is a 2-1 decision of a three-judge district court blocking the mid-decade Texas redistricting map as a racial gerrymander. It will (undoubtedly) be appealed, and it goes directly to the Supreme Court.

lmao. reading the opinion on the Texas gerrymander, the court, reasonably, ruled that (a) the Trump admin had sent Texas a letter demanding that it dismantle districts based entirely on their racial makeup; (b) that Texas acknowledged this as their motivation when they did this; (c) this is racist.

Seriously - if any of your social media companies informs you that stuff from your accounts has been turned over in compliance with a federal grand jury subpoena, SHUT THE FUCK UP IMMEDIATELY and stay shut up until you consult an attorney. Who will also tell you to stfu, but professionally.

This is a really strong piece by @mjsdc.bsky.social on how Trump's DOJ really messed up in how they tried to finagle Texas's re-redistricting. And now that measure was put on hold by a federal district court. A mess in Texas!

"Twitter didn't...!" Yes. Yes it did. Like, I assure you, yes it did.

Y'all know that websites comply with subpoenas, right? That's why it's called a court *order*. And if you think they don't, yeah they do. They often don't have to tell you they've even done so.

He’s dismantling this nation from its core in so many ways. www.npr.org/2025/11/18/n...

So one of the hosts of one of my favorite podcasts just got subpoenaed, former deputy FBI director, Andrew McCabe. He’s not talking about that, but still covering other cases: podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/u...

Didn't know we'd have to quickly test the limits of Trump v. U.S. on what evidence of official acts might be relied upon by a prosecutor--consistent with the Court's newly-concocted theory of criminal presidential immunity--to prove that the President took a bribe.

This Netflix documentary series about Epstein is good! Testimonials of the victims, law enforcement and legal interviews, records. Just horrific abuse! & Trump palled around with that guy. Predator buddies. Remember the 🐈‍⬛ tape. www.imdb.com/title/tt1231...

Just a reminder that In a 2002 interview with New York Magazine, Donald Trump said the following about Epstein: “I've known Jeff for fifteen years. Terrific guy. He's a lot of fun to be with. It is even said that he likes beautiful women as much as I do, and many of them are on the younger side."

It's going to be modestly unpopular. The moderates are going to feel real queasy about it. But the next Democratic admin needs to come in ready, not just to investigate, but to punish legally. People have to go to prison. There's no argumen that nonconsenusal surgery and med abuse is LE activity.

Stacey Williams: "Jeffrey Epstein's survivors, and survivors like me deserve justice, it's so enraging - that they have to come out and tell these stories, and the abusers remain in the shadows. I don't know how Karoline Leavitt can look in the mirror when she's allowing this to go on."

😡 Adjudged Sexual Abuser TRUMP continues to DIVERT the MSM from the EPSTEIN FILES & his "close relationship" with Pedophile/Sex Trafficker, Jeffrey Epstein! Former model Stacey Williams reveals how Trump GROPED her WHILE Epstein WATCHED, in Trump Tower! www.thedailybeast.com/stacey-willi...

Stacey Williams: "Donald Trump proceeded to grope me right outside of his office door while Jeffrey Epstein just stood there and watched, smiling, carrying on with their conversation as if it wasn't happening. The whole thing was coordinated."

Stacey Williams: "Karoline Leavitt said the White House is being fully transparent, but they strongarmed Lauren Boebert to pull back her Epstein Files vote. To call this kabuki theatre transparent is incredibly damaging to Jeffrey Epstein's survivors. If there's nothing to hide, just do it."

Just getting around to watching Mamdani’s acceptance speech in full. Wow! youtube.com/watch?v=nfdU...

If you’re trying to catch up on what went down with #SNAP late last night at #SCOTUS, here’s my attempt to read the breadcrumbs on the “administrative stay” issued by Justice Jackson—and why a justice so critical of the Court’s grants of emergency relief to Trump still granted temporary relief here:

BREAKING: The full Ninth Circuit vacates last week’s 2-1 order granting DOJ a stay of the district court’s TRO in the case over Trump’s National Guard effort in Oregon. The court will rehear DOJ’s stay request w an 11-judge panel. Today’s order means Judge Immergut’s TRO remains in effect for now.

A U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement agent arrested in August on suspicion of driving drunk questioned the nationality of a sheriff’s deputy and threatened to check the deputy’s immigration status, according to newly released body-camera footage.

I will vote for any Democrat who promises to hold Stephen Miller accountable for his many, many crimes.

it's hard to Nazi what's going on here

Your regular reminder that we desperately need to overturn Citizens United and get big money out of politics. It is among the worst Supreme Court decisions in history. It corrupts our political system every day.

There’s an emotional loss felt when seeing the destruction of the White House. These are images that sink deep into a sense of mourning. That is emotion might even be more powerful than fear. But does it motivate?
