I saw a video of Don Lemmon saying that Hakeem Jeffries isn’t endorsing Mamdani because Mamdani didn’t endorse him in his reelection campaign. If that is true, that’s just infantile bullshit. Mamdani was a local politician with no national voice. He was NOT one of the LEADERS OF THE PARTY!!

you're really burying the lede by failing to mention that said reign involved lamberth ordering the severing of the internet connections of parts of the interior department *more than once* www.govexec.com/federal-news...

previously on “judge lamberth threatens contempt proceedings”:

It’s official: AIPAC is trying to buy my election to keep me out of Congress. Apparently, I’m a “dangerous detractor”... by believing Palestinians (like myself and my family) deserve basic human rights. But we’re not going to let AIPAC win.

NEW: Rachel Maddow drops unseen bodycam footage of feds coordinating the arrest of Newark Mayor Baraka. I REPEAT: the feds ordered his arrest even though he wasn’t breaking any laws. Federal agent: “We are arresting the mayor right now per the Deputy Attorney General of the United States.”

People of Illinois, we need your help. Get your cell phones out – record what you see. Put it on social media. Peacefully ask for badge numbers and identification. Speak up for your neighbors. We need to let the world know this is happening – and that we won’t stand for it.

they know they’re screwing our farmers with the tariffs, the bailout of Argentina, etc 👇🏽🧑‍🌾

In November, I am voting yes on Prop 50 and making sure my friends and family do too. This was legit my commute this morning. If you zoom in, there are buzzards flying overhead. TRUMP • REVENGE • CHAOS • CORRUPTION

GOFOpalooza predictions: - they make a show of having the service chiefs report in - Pete speaks first, lethality, woke is done, rehash of SOCOM rant - the rapid response nazis will have already posted a hits clip of him saluting or some shit to stirring music on the everything app before he's done

"Inhumane conditions." The Resurrection Project says that's what immigrants are facing inside Broadview's ICE facility.

NEW: In a pointed ruling, Judge Lamberth pasued a 500-person cut at Voice of America and said USAGM had shown a "concerning disrespect" for court orders. w/ @joshgerstein www.politico.com/news/2025/09...

A big fuck no to this.

The DOGE team was acting like “a bunch of people who didn’t know what they were doing, with ideas of how government should run — thinking it should work like a McDonald’s or a bank — screaming all the time,” former SSA Commissioner Leland Dudek said.

There’s more… It was a set up.

We absolutely cannot take NJ Gov race for granted. If you are interested -- esp if you live in the NJ/NJ/PA/DE/CT area -- and want to help in southern Cape May County, message me here!

@maddow.msnbc.com just showed some truly insane body cam footage that shows that the orders to arrest the Newark major for doing nothing came from the Deputy AG-told to cuff him in front of press.

Amazing. Where has this person been. Put her in charge of something now.

It is important to see this sort of straight talking, precisely because of the executive order last week that conflated criticism of the government with terrorism.

“There will be no federal takeover of Portland, Oregon.” 🔥 👀 Damn — @bynum.house.gov is. Not. Playing. Around.

JUST IN: Judge Lamberth has *blocked* a new wave of terminations at Voice of America, offering harsh words for Kari Lake and saying the Trump administration’s conduct in his case would support civil contempt proceedings, if only the plaintiffs had asked. storage.courtlistener.com/recap/gov.us...

Clip of Rep. McIver threatening to file a complaint against an officer at Delaney Hall: "He just assaulted me. I'm filing a complaint." From one of the exhibits she filed in defense of the assault claims.

Judge Lamberth, a Reagan employee, slams the govt's "disrespect" for his orders. He says contempt proceedings would be warranted, but he doesn't order them because nobody asked for them.

📌Republicans hold every branch of power in Washington and are going to use that power -- as always -- to no good when they shut the government down and take away and/or stop programs and services WE PAID FOR, and badly need. Any other talking point on this one is complete bullshit.

Trump’s planning to use the shutdown to fire employees of agencies that are “not consistent with the president’s priorities.” This is how authoritarian takeovers start—one purge at a time. #ThisIsTrumpsShutdown

UPDATE: Judge Simon has convened the parties for a scheduling call on the Guard deployment and has set a Friday hearing at 10AM (PT) for a restraining order hearing. DOJ says the 200-member guard contingent does not warrant emergency treatment that Oregon contends.

JUST IN: Judge Simon sets a restraining order hearing for *tonight* on Trump's deployment of the National Guard in Oregon. Suggests he could issue a very quick order.

DOJ’s attempts to charge these cases in DC and LA have been resoundingly unsuccessful. Grand juries have rejected a huge proportion of the attempts to indict. One case in LA that went to trial as a misdemeanor recently ended in acquittal

It certainly appears the United States murdered an innocent fisherman who was a husband and father to four children, claimed he was a "narco-terrorist," posted a video of the execution, and then made jokes about it

Call Mike Johnson, the Speaker of the House, and ask him why he's protecting pedofiles and childhood sex traffickers. His official DC numbers are: (202) 225-4000 and (202) 225-2777 Bossier City office: (318) 840-0309 DeRidder office: (337) 226-6385 Leesville office: (337) 423-4232 Be relentless.

Hey Mike Johnson, where in the Bible does it tell you to protect pedofiles and child sex traffickers?

In the grand saga of "yeah that never happened" *People brought the NSC / State / DoD cookies to help boost morale for appointees working on the Ukrainian War of Independence* is the most "yeah that never happened" in a grand saga of DC yeah that never happeneds.

what no they don't if you're TDY during a shutdown you just call up the CTO and book travel on your card to immediately return home, you don't necessarily even have to screw around with DTS and an AO And that's setting aside that they'll all already have return travel booked

this incorrect idea originates in a lie which chuck schumer himself told

The FDA's decision to reexamine access to mifepristone was made because of a scientifically baseless letter and ignores decades of research that prove it's safe and effective. If anyone challenges access to mifepristone, we will take action to protect it.

Hey, let’s stop saying “we might not have an election in 2028” and start saying, “If Trump thinks we’re not having an election in 2028, then he’s mistaken about how this works.”

This Utah dentist was: • Repeatedly accused of improper tooth implants and root canals • Placed on probation for 3 years • Sued 3x for medical malpractice But when the state dentistry board recommended revoking his license, regulators said no.

Hegseth is set to deliver a message about “restoring the warrior ethos" and present new standards toward that goal to our nation’s top Generals tomorrow. I was glad to join @velshi.com on @msnbc.com yesterday to discuss… take a look. youtu.be/rjdcTkRKBxM

One person having the power to upend entire industries and economic sectors on a whim every day that puts companies out of business and workers out of jobs with no legislative input is an autocracy, regardless of whether that person initially acquired power through an election.

It’s the Un-Happy Birthday of the Roberts Court today. 😞 We’re going Live with @stevevladeck.bsky.social at 2 pm ET today for a catch-up session on SCOTUS’ latest failings. See you then! substack.com/@katiephang?...

The Trump administration's homelessness plan is that they are going to produce more of it.

Republicans control the House, the Senate, and the White House. Democrats won’t be to blame for a shutdown, and everyone knows it! #ThisIsTrumpsShutdown

Republicans control the White House, Congress and the Senate! A shutdown is on them‼️ #ThisIsTrumpsShutdown
