The Supreme Court is facing a major corruption crisis. I'm proud to introduce the High Court Gift Ban Act, with @raskin.house.gov and @lujan.senate.gov, to remove the influence of dark money from our nation’s highest judicial body. We must safeguard the sanctity of our democracy.

Elias Law Group has defeated DOJ lawsuits to access state voter files in: California Maine Maryland Massachusetts Michigan New Hampshire New York Oregon Pennsylvania Rhode Island Wisconsin DOJ has not won a single case. It is 0-12.

🚨 ICE has officially issued a contract award to the GEO Group to re-open the Big Horn Contract Detention Facility in Hudson, Colorado. The contract will operate to the tune of $528.7M. The private jail has approximately 1,000 beds.

🚨🚨URGENT CALL TO ACTION: Calling ALL Yale Students, Alumni, Faculty, and Staff!!🚨🚨 According to The New York Times, Yale has reportedly entered settlement discussions with the U.S. Department of Justice over allegations involving admissions at the Yale School of Medicine.

People who are unfamiliar with the UCMJ may not realize that for an active duty major to do this in uniform, the consequence can be court martial and incarceration. All of it is prohibited, but the wearing of the uniform was an intentional choice, and a likely forfeit of both his career and freedom.

Kavanaugh really, really wants people to think that trans sports bans and his decision upholding them are strictly about sports None of that is true! ballsandstrikes.org/scotus/west-...

Remember when trump promised to lower prices, cut utility bills in half, and make life affordable? Now it's: "I love the inflation." "Affordability is a hoax." “No one gives a **** about housing.” Turns out the hoax was trump's whole campaign.

The candidates ran as Democrats and were nominated by Democratic voters. The only way her statement makes sense is if you don’t see the voters as the constituents of the party, but see the donors as that. Blowing up the party then equals giving the voters choices contrary to the donor class.

The "boat strikes" death toll now stands at 215. Since Tuesday, the United States has killed 8 people, and 6 survivors are somewhere in the Caribbean, still unrecovered.

What makes my heart heavy is that 13 servicemembers and a school full of girls died for no reason except to attempt to boost a sad old man’s ego

There were some ugly claims on X that Janeese was the candidate of white “transplants” while McDuffie was the choice of longtime Black residents. But it looks like McDuffie will only win ward 3 (wealthy, white) while Janeese will carry every other ward (including majority-Black wards 7 and 8).

🧵 Now that the UFC Freedom 250 event is over, next up is Freedom 250 Trump rally on June 24. Corporate sponsors of Trump's Freedom 250 include Mastercard and United Airlines. Eli Lilly says it's not a sponsor of Freedom 250, but Lilly CEO said Lilly is a "proud participant" in Freedom 250.

Mike Johnson knows nothing when it suits him and knows everything when it suits him. We call them Liars in the UK.

ICYMI: County officials are still working to help voters understand the process of receiving and completing their ballots after a printing error produced 500,000 ballots which contained errors. https://bit.ly/4vt0eBV

A reminder that DOJ has sued 30 states for access to their sensitive voter files. DOJ is currently 0-8 in decided cases. This is what I mean when I say the future of democracy is on the docket. www.democracydocket.com

Armed gangs roaming Ward 1 in DC as Election Day nears Note the earpiece #bigballsgoonshow #taxationwithoutrepresentatiom

on this day 105 years ago in 1921 the Tulsa Race Massacre began when white supremacists destroyed Tulsa's Greenwood district. This group of citizens destroyed 35 blocks of "Black Wall Street", killed 300, and left 10,000 Black citizens homeless.

Just in case you were wondering, our Bicentennial Celebration in 1976 was held in multiple venues, and the artists included: The Eagles Fleetwood Mac Loggins & Messina (Their final performance before splitting up) Dan Fogelberg Elton John The Beach Boys America Elvis Presley Bruce Springsteen 1/2

My quote of the day It's a victory when the weapons fall silent and people speak up. Volodymyr Zelensky

The J6ers claimed to support cops, then they assaulted cops. They whine about being treated so horribly by law enforcement, but they're fine with ICE treating brown people 100x worse. They preach "personal responsibility" and won't take any for their own actions, which they CHOSE to commit.

The U.S. Has Murdered More Than 190 Civilian in Boat Strikes. We’re Tracking Them All. SOUTHCOM is now counting the survivor of the last strike, on May 8, as another death. We have the running tally of strikes and deaths on our tracker @theintercept.com theintercept.com/2025/11/17/t...

Please America, don't pick a weird President at the next election.

America didn’t turn ugly because he became President. No. He became President because America was already this ugly. That’s the uncomfortable truth nobody wants to admit.

Child Protective Services in multiple states is opening up investigations and—in at least one case—taking teens from the mothers who help them seek out abortion

Trump has told the same lie about being close to a deal every week of the war, and the market still responds as if this is the first time he’s told this lie.

I question the mental stability of any person who was either themself or had a loved one be a victim of a gun massacre who comes out and argues that the guns are more important than the victims. These are broken people.

Now that the president is encouraging states to cancel their primary elections and redraw congressional district maps, can we agree that a constitutional crisis is now upon us?

I am honored to share the 2026 Pulitzer Prize for Best International Reporting with Dake Kang, Byron Tau, Aniruddha Ghosal and Garance Burke for our reporting revealing how Silicon Valley largely designed and built China's surveillance state and enabled human rights abuses.

Israelis have killed 75,000 Palestinians in Gaza since October 2023 with U.S.-supplied weapons. That’s twenty-five 9/11s.

Dear Republican Congress, Please help remove Trump.

In 1965, when the Voting Rights Act was passed, the ADL devoted considerable time and resources to supporting it, because they understood that a nation where minority rights are protected is safer for all of us. In 2026, when the Supreme Court destroyed the Voting Rights Act, the ADL said nothing.

Your periodic reminder that if you ask "frontier models" questions about something you actually know something about, you'll quickly realize that they're completely full of shit.

Reminder that Trump, Jeanine Pirro, and MAGA members of Congress are working to undo gun safety laws in DC every way they can. Last night's shooting in Ward 1 is a clear example of why those efforts are dangerous and wrong 🧵

All those politicians running for their lives during a shooting finally got to understand how kids in schools feel.

This photo should be on the front page of every single newspaper in America today.

One of the biggest problems with Zionism is they care more about the views of other Zionists who may not even be Jewish than they care about the views of actual Jewish people. Then of course there’s a Genocide to consider.

Ghislaine Maxwell abused young women & girls alongside Epstein for years. As young as 14. In multiple states. Convicted in a federal court. She belongs behind bars. I’m beyond disgusted that any of our colleagues would suggest a pardon. The real question is why has no one else been convicted?

No law enforcement officer operating in Connecticut—federal, state, or local—can wear a mask on duty. ICE and CBP agents have to show their faces and badges. And when an officer assaults someone recording them, commits false imprisonment, false arrest, or malicious prosecution, they lose immunity.

Jerusalem Post: Despite a “ceasefire” the IDF is giving orders to open fire on everyone in Southern Lebanon trying to go home — “Even if the person is unarmed… based on the idea that there are no civilians left in Southern Lebanon.” www.jpost.com/middle-east/...

Time for Mamdani and Obama to go to a baseball game with the Pope. Let’s just blow this whole thing wide open.

Trump acts like he is the master of the world. He cannot control Israel. He cannot defeat Iran. He has no support in Europe. His "allies" like Putin and Netanyahu merely control and use him. He is hated by the majority of Americans. Even his cult is breaking up. Does not sound like mastery to me.

It's the 7th month of the US bombing random ships in Latin American waters they claim are drug smugglers (reminder that two survivors who were rescued were repatriated, not charged), and the death toll is 150+, and it barely gets discussed.

Good news! We’re ending this week with a day of discussion & collaboration about how we “navigate this nadir” & use the 14th Amendment as a guide for re-founding our country. Again. All day Friday at @howardlawschool.bsky.social. Learn more here: 14thamendmentctr.org/news/second-...

It’s not a ceasefire if the killing continues on one side. Mass atrocities are being carried out by Netanyahu in Lebanon with U.S. backing. (1/3)

@mocomikee.bsky.social Mike, do you know Peter Norton's work of several decades?

The more I think about the 70,000 ICE incarcerated without due process the more I think we are underreacting. People are literally trapped inside for profit prisons. We need to do something.
