Wyden and Kennedy introduced a bill to modernize PACER

PACER absolutely should be free. There’s no legitimate reason why members of the press and public should be charged for access to public records they themselves look up online.

Let this radicalize you

Lawfare got copies of the grand jury transcripts from the panel that indicted Trump and his co-conspirators in Georgia. www.lawfaremedia.org/projects-ser...

its only a matter of time before this happens to one of those annual The Nation cruises. www.wsj.com/world/the-33...

I can't fucking believe this actually happened

To sum up, Bearstar Strategies, which has owned the seat of power in California for nearly two decades, thought Swalwell was an empty suit they could control but they couldn't control his pants, so they found another suit. (Who isn't exactly full either) nypost.com/2026/04/19/u...

He started a war, didn’t know how to win it, was immediately over his head, became quickly overpowered by an enemy he vastly underestimated, and now is trying to sue for peace and then convince you that this was a victory. Dying empires produce leaders like this

My issue with this change is that it feels like it removes the connection to the broader labor movement. Of course since Newsom is desperate to stop his own farm workers from unionizing that doesn't surprise me. I'm sure he is eager to de-politicize the day however possible.

The contradictions? Yep they are contradicting.

"Iran believes there can be no end to the conflict until it believes Trump has been shown the economic, political and military cost is so high that it is not worth repeating."

NEW: Kristi Noem's exit doesn’t undo the massive deals that DHS struck with a vast array of contractors - incl. one where DHS acknowledged "an appearance of favoritism" the latest @pogo.org/@motherjones.com collab by me & @dfriedman.bsky.social www.motherjones.com/politics/202...

Kristi Noem is (almost) out at DHS but her luxury jet remains in government hands, leased from a company linked to a Noem campaign donor who has other big DHS contracts despite a lack of experience. By @schwellenbach.bsky.social and @dfriedman.bsky.social www.pogo.org/investigates...

This puts me at 10 people released. I filed my 1st habeas petition 29 days ago. I am an incredibly small-time, nobody lawyer who knew nothing about immigration law the day I submitted that case. I barely know any more today. I had never sued the federal government and now I've beaten them 10 times.

Having some of the most thoroughly redacted thoughts of my life.

yeah but

Exclusive: US military investigators believe it is likely that US forces were responsible for an apparent strike on an Iranian girls' school that killed scores of children on February 28 but have not yet reached a final conclusion or completed their investigation reut.rs/40b19JN

as it happens, i wrote about the AI/crypto comparison! a little outdated now, but directionally correct www.citationneeded.news/ai-isnt-usel...

We have some genuinely anti-war Democrats but Democratic leadership has been pro-war for as long as I can remember. It's genuinely depressing and horrifying.

Today sucks. Fuck everything.

Gojira was pretty much the highlight of the Paris Olympic Opening Ceremony; I would not be opposed to seeing some of Milan's own Lacuna Coil tonight.

Trump mocks the idea of praying during a meal at the National Prayer Breakfast: “Mike Johnson is a very religious person... He’ll say to me sometimes at lunch, ‘Sir, may we pray?’ I say, ‘Excuse me?’ You know, we’re having lunch.”

inspiring as hell. We are going to win

sorry this is incredibly funny to me. he's just walking a wheelbarrow into the treasury now. great work everyone. that's a fuckin' wrap on the united states of america.

The USA, where the summary execution of an unarmed man can now be justified by the actual president, because on a separate occasion he kicked the tail light of a "very expensive government vehicle."

"I'm coming to Boston and I'm bringing hell with me." --Homan in February "Do I expect violence to escalate? Absolutely." -- Tom Homan in March "I actually thought about getting up and throwing that man a beating right there in the middle of the room" -- Homan in July, referring to a D congressman

New ad in #IL09 from Kat Abughazaleh's campaign, shifting the tone from "abolish ICE" to "prosecute ICE" She says the ad will begin running today

Even when there’s no accountability, the record matters. Credit to the Wikipedia editors maintaining this page.

The DHS funding bill is effectively dead in the Senate.

UPDATE: @dropsitenews.com has obtained the very graphic video from the lady in the pink coat, which shows ICE executing yet another person in broad daylight:

these are the 7 house democrats who voted to give ICE another $10 billion on thursday btw

this is some fox's book of martyrs shit. jesus christ.

It's annoying that we already had so many existing problems to solve before these assholes created a bunch of new ones for no reason

Voted for ICE funding

Something happened on that plane

Our city has been over-run by Nazi ghouls kidnapping people to traffic them to concentration camps and other countries. Did you ever think you'd see the day when masked gunmen jump out of moving vehicles and chase families down the street in your own neighborhood? FUCK ICE forever and ever.
