I say again, why are we bailing out Milei and why aren’t more Democrats in Congress talking about it?

People detained in Kristi Noem’s concentration camps have a strange habit of winding up dead. Deaths occurring in the custody of US Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) have reached at least 16 since January amid increasing mass detention across the country and growing concerns over conditions.

Here is my report at Law Dork on tonight’s shadow docket order: www.lawdork.com/p/scotus-imp...

Much more to come, but here is some background: www.lawdork.com/p/the-dc-cir... And here is a conversation I had with a federal funding expert: www.lawdork.com/p/impoundmen...

BREAKING: The Supreme Court allows the Trump administration to withhold $4 billion in foreign aid funds b/c of Trump’s “pocket rescission” argument and b/c enforcing the injunction would affect foreign affairs. The Democratic appointees dissent. More to come at Law Dork: www.lawdork.com

So much for the Impoundment Act! What else will Trump do now that he can refuse to spend Congressional appropriations?

The United Nations has added more companies to a blacklist of firms from 11 countries that it says are complicit in violating Palestinian human rights through their business ties to Israeli settlements in the occupied West Bank. https://to.pbs.org/46sr5EI

Now we know who Sinclair & Nexstar are, we know giant media network will curry favor with FCC for mergers and caps - ALL THE MORE REASON TO SUPPORT PUBLIC MEDIA!

Do you feel safer?

As a former U.S. Public Delegate to the UN, I watched Donald Trump’s speech with profound concern. He treats alliances as transactions and diplomacy as a reality show. This isn't strength; it's a reckless retreat from the world stage. My thoughts:

You can go directly to ABC.com or Kimmel’s YouTube channel if Nexstar or Sinclair owns your local ABC station that refuses to air Kimmel.

You can go directly to ABC.com or Kimmel’s YouTube channel if Nexstar or Sinclair owns your local ABC station that refuses to air Kimmel.

We are fast becoming a banana republic, with two standards of justice. If you oppose the leader, you go to jail just for speech. If you're a loyalist, you get immunity for your crimes. That's what happens in Iran - not the United States. This is a decision moment for America.

Trump Administration is erasing history and data it doesn’t like in our national parks. www.washingtonpost.com/climate-envi...

It’s a new kind of Saturday Night Massacre as Trump removes an experienced prosecutor he himself put in place in hopes he can find one who will prosecute a case based on politics, not the evidence. open.substack.com/pub/joycevan...

RFK Jr’s hand-picked committee just restricted Americans’ access to safe and effective vaccines—for the sake of politics, not science. Ignoring data and science is absurd, and these reckless decisions could put millions of Americans at risk. www.latimes.com/science/stor...

Sinclair aired it on YouTube instead on National News Desk page. You know what to do in the comment section, internet! youtu.be/qXOcpkdFgCI?si

Great day to look up Sinclair affiliate stations, see who their advertisers are, call the advertisers and tell them what you think of Sinclair. Same for Nexstar. They pulled Kimmel Sinclair affiliate list: en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of... Nexstar affiliate list: en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of...

Yesterday, we launched Unrig Washington and 80+ members of Congress and congressional candidates are already on board. This new campaign is centered around three critical reforms that voters across the ideological spectrum are demanding.

The attack on Jimmy Kimmel is yet another page in the dictator's playbook. When will my more of my Republicans colleagues recognize that traveling down this road does not end well for any of us? youtu.be/uXeMb2xAsrk?...

"The goal is to make it uncomfortable for Trump and Republicans to continue pushing to take away Dreamers’ protections as they continue to pillage immigrant communities nationwide." It has worked before. www.thebulwark.com/p/dreamers-f...

UCS Western states senior policy manager Daniel Barad, pictured above at the signing, said, “Today, Governor Newsom affirmed California’s indelible commitment to improving energy affordability while bolstering the state’s clean energy future." Learn more: act.ucsusa.org/4mt2IeC

Great news after a long week! Gov. Newsom signed 3 new bills into law today that will reduce energy costs across California while continuing to invest in the state’s clean energy future. (Pic of UCS, @nrdc.org, @envdefensefund.bsky.social, Asm. Irwin & Asm. Petrie-Norris with @governor.ca.gov)

This database is incredibly important for understanding trends related to natural disasters. Understanding trends can be used to more efficiently target funding and other resources to protect life and property. It also gives a hint about impacts from climate change. www.yahoo.com/news/article...

The Senate has confirmed 48 of President Donald Trump’s nominees at once, voting for the first time under new rules to begin clearing a backlog of executive branch positions that had been delayed by Democrats. https://to.pbs.org/4nFl11f

Yesterday, UCS staff joined Members of Congress and climate, public health, and clean vehicles advocates at the Capitol to hand deliver a letter signed by over 1,000 scientists objecting to the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency’s outrageous proposal to rescind the 2009 Endangerment Finding.🧵

They are going to target social media platforms too. When they do, censorship will rapidly escalate. Prepare to inform your followers to move to alternatives (Bluesky, Mastodon, Pixelfed, Flashes, Skylight Social). Share why you’re leaving and where you’re going. This will be vital for resistance.

🧵 The most effective way to let ABC know you’re unhappy with #JimmyKimmel Live! being pulled is to go directly through their official feedback channels. Here’s how you can do it: 1. Boycott Disney. Boycott Nexstar. Boycott their advertisers. Hit them where it hurts: the $$$.

This is an excellent piece! Must watch

It’s Constitution Day. So, of course, Jimmy Kimmel’s show got canceled over comments he made that the administration didn’t like. And DHS Sec’y Noem went on an ICE raid where American citizens were detained. Read on for the update you need tonight: open.substack.com/pub/joycevan...

NEW: ProPublica and seven other news organizations — including @kutnews.bsky.social and @texastribune.org — are arguing that the records in Texas Attorney General Ken Paxton’s divorce case are of the public interest, especially in light of his bid for a U.S. Senate seat.

“Nearly every agent on Baltimore’s domestic terrorism squad was reassigned this year to work full time on immigration enforcement, forcing them to walk away from investigations of a network of violent predators that targets and exploits children online.” www.msnbc.com/msnbc/news/t...

WOW -- a screaming Patel crashes out in response to Schiff's questions about Epstein and Ghislaine Maxwell and calls him "the biggest fraud to ever sit in the United States Senate" and "an utter coward" and "political buffoon"

Trump’s approval rating is underwater in 39 states, including 20 states that voted for him last year.

Good morning. Speaking truth to power is never free - it can cost reputation, comfort, even safety. But silence costs more: it corrodes integrity, enables harm, and leaves others alone in the dark. Thank you @karenattiah.bsky.social for showing why truth, though costly, is still worth it.

Ken Paxton's Ten Commandments do not, of course, apply to Paxton. (Not to be found in Texas papers, of course).
