Journalist Katie Phang is suing the U.S. Justice Department over the Epstein files. Her lawsuit names acting Attorney General Todd Blanche and accuses the DOJ of failing to fully release the documents required under the Epstein Files Transparency Act.

A day after The Late Show ended, Colbert hosted an episode of public access program Only In Monroe, reviving his 11-year-old gag. How bad is CBS/Paramount taking it? They issued copyright complaints for a show they don't own. 🤣 CBS would hate it if you watch here: www.youtube.com/watch?v=7DlF...

Why the fuck are Dems not doing Hot Ones? Such a layup "person of the peope" hit for a couple days worth of gastrointestinal distress. Seems like a no-brainer for anyone serious.

Anyone else wonder if Michael Jackson would be a diehard Tump supporter?

When all the opinions are too trivial or myopic to respond to, you just have to post your own.

WATCH — @jamestalarico.bsky.social : “Every dollar we spend bombing people in the Middle East is one we’re not spending here at home. We’re always told we don’t have enough money for schools or healthcare or for veterans, but there’s always enough to bomb people on the other side of the world.”

This is a two way race.

@politics PLEASE, PLEASE STOP TELLING ME HOW TRUMP DID THE THING HE SAID HE WOULNDT. IT'S TOO LATE. I ALEADY KNOW HE'S A LIAR. FOR THE LOVE OF GOD, I ALREADY BELIEVE. PLEASE, PLEASE STOP TELLING ME HOW CLUTCHED YOUR PEARLS ARE. I can't. Fucking algorithmic bubble.

Here is my opening statement to the House Oversight and Government Reform Committee today.

Tax billionaires out of existence.

The half everyone knows: "Never ask a subordinate to do something you wouldn't do yourself". The part they leave out: "Never do yourself what you could ask a subordinate to do". Leadership is effective delegation.

So I was talking to Claude, and it urged me to post this everywhere I could.

Asking "AI" about how it works in clear, concise questions and hypotheticals is a fascinating use case for "AI" 🙄🤣

The Death Star is a planet-sized lightsaber. Damn, I was today years old...

I'm glad the "good guys" won the #Superbowl, for our country, as a life-long Pats fan. I didnt lose a bet, and no one is paying me to say this.

People tying politics into the #Superbowl are the reason our politics are so fucked up. Keep it on the field. You dont need to gamify EVERYTHING.

If you let Sam Darnold beat you, you deserve it. #Superbowl

So we stopped caring about "forward motion"? #Superbowl

As much as the "evil empire" storyline is fun, anyone who follows football knows this game was forgone. The Pats have made it fun, but it's time for reality to kick in. #Superbowl

Bold prediction. You're not going to win the #Superbowl with a negative turnover differential.

The White shirts beating down another Njigba. The optics guys

Yes, Drake and Mike, you're going to have put the offense on your VERY young quarterback. For better or worse, let it rip boys.

Seahawks D is better than the Pats O. That's your entire ballgame, seen ahead of time and fulfilled. #Superbowl

You know, considering they shouldnt even be there, the Pats are holding the line-ish, at least #Superbowl

I cant believe the Patriots are going to let Walker carry Darnold to win a #Superbowl

Anybody else just watch the ref swap out the coin in his pocket? #Superbowl

So just to be clear, we'll arest Don Lemon for busting into a church to ask questions, but not Nick Shirley for busting into schools with little children to ask questions? Yeah, actually, sounds about right.

This morning ICE attempted to enter into the Ecuadorian consulate on Central Ave but were barred from entering. I spoke with Ambassador Yanez this afternoon and they want to make sure the Ecuadorian community knows it’s still safe to come to the consulate.

After being held in two of them as a boy, I fought for decades urging America to never again build concentration camps and put human beings in them. It breaks my heart to watch this happen twice now in my own lifetime.

One of the best things I’ve read in a while:

Repost.

Alex Pretti, the man killed by federal agents today in Minneapolis, appears to have been a registered nurse, an athlete, a son and a brother, with ties to Colorado and Wisconsin. Here is a photo he used for several accounts.

If we're dumb enough to do this to ourselves, do we deserve it?

The unc who went viral a few weeks ago protesting in MN is back: "5 shots they put into that man's body. How do you look me in the eye and tell me you can justify this? I'm a veteran. I swore an oath back in 1969 to protect this country against all enemies foreign and domestic. This is unbelievable"

🚨 Breaking from the US Senator for Connecticut. 👇 There you have it. ICE has never been about immigration enforcement. It's a weapon used to brutalize Americans and stoke enough fear so that Trump can rig the elections and usher in dictatorship.

A video of Alex Pretti reading out the final salute of an unnamed veteran he cared for until the end of his life in the ICU, posted to Facebook by his son.

The budget deal in Congress will give ICE another $10 BILLION. Absolutely not. ICE is out of control. We must stop this rogue agency’s dangerous abuses of power, not bankroll it.

Hey, Cuban, politics-mixed-in-sports-guy, thoughts? Comments? I sincerely hope you will be more active and vocally opposed if/when ICE gets around to the your state. @lebatardshow.bsky.social www.forbes.com/sites/siladi...

every single successful general strike in US history has had union backing through the local AFL-CIO this is the first time it’s been called for since the 1940s
