We’re the only country that lets the gun lobby write the laws and then pretends to be shocked when children end up in coffins. NEW UPDATE: The San Joaquin County Sheriff’s Office has announced that four of the victims shot in the Stockton mass shooting were ages 8, 9, 14, and 21.

DHS’s internal watchdog system has been “gutted” the staff of Office for Civil Rights & Civil Liberties (CRCL) was cut from about 150 down to only 9 people. The cuts leave around 550 active investigations

In Montana, we are not giving up on the rule of law. We will not stand down. Equal justice under the law is what distinguishes democracies from autocracies and monarchies. Support our work: crm.bloomerang.co/HostedDonati...

Because the rule of law applies to everyone, even the Governor. "Rep. Bertoglio’s appointment appears to be a norm without any scrutiny,” Andres Haladay, Upper Seven's senior staff attorney, told The Monitor. “Someone has to stand up for the Constitution.” www.boulder-monitor.com/news/legal-a...

Warrantless arrests have no place in a democracy. montanafreepress.org/2025/07/10/a...

In the last four years, we have filed 25 cases, holding the powerful accountable to the promise of the Montana Constitution (and its federal counterpart). We've won 11 of those cases, and 12 of them remain open. And we're nowhere near done.

ICYMI: montanafreepress.org/2025/10/01/n... The state cannot reduce privacy protections in Montana to make civil immigration offenses easier to investigate. We are proud to represent Valley Neighbors in stopping unconstitutional law enforcement conduct.

It was an honor for MK and me to meet with Pope Leo XIV – a son of Illinois – to express the pride and reverence of the people of this great state. Pope Leo XIV’s message of hope, compassion, unity, and peace resonates with Illinoisans of all faiths and traditions.

Let's boost Bobby Wesson to recovery with a donation of $5, $10, $25, $50, $100 or more! Hopefully, he will be leaving UCLA Hospital in LA with two functioning kidneys -- a miracle! But we still must continue to fund his outpatient room while he's here and need to raise $450 by Monday night!

Thank you to all the volunteers! Rep. Aftyn Behn reported that more than 600 volunteers turned out and knocked on 13,000 doors. Let’s flip TN’s 7th District! And if you’ve got time, they still need help!

More cracks in the dam

While the right lose their goddamn minds about a lone wolf doing something horrendous in DC today, let’s not forget that last week in the White House they all gushed over a genocidal, journalist murdering tyrant whose country financed 9/11.

You're a high ranking government official and you shouldn't make things up. Your 70% number is just a fabrication. And it's TOTALLY not true that "every single" person you detained is here illegally. For instance, many were allowed in so they could apply for asylum.

The last president who declared that anything he does is legal was Richard M. Nixon. And we all know how things worked out for him . . .

Bowser on injured National Guard members: "These young people should be at home in West Virginia with their families"

If you’re wondering why there’s a lull in the Epstein files discussion, it’s because the law that just passed gave Pamela Jo 30 days to release the files. So we’re all waiting to see how she tries to sabotage it. The discussion will pick back up in earnest on December 20th.

There is a reason why Witkoff did not want any officials with the State Dept or anyone else present during his many meetings w/Putin - he didn’t want witnesses to his treasonous behavior. Highly unusual, but makes perfect sense when you consider that he only cared about Russia.

More evidence that Meta knew its products created unsafe environments for children and teens, but turned a blind eye. We need rules of the road to hold tech companies accountable and protect kids.

Are those "MANY GREAT LEGAL SCHOLARS" in the room with you right now, Piggy?

DOGE was a failure if the goal was saving money. It was a huge success if the goal was giving a bunch of techbro adjacent people unfettered access to govt data in ways that, thus far, are evading the Privacy Act.

The America First people in charge of the US government don’t seem very America First to me.

The bill last numbered H.R. 9495 would empower the Treasury Secretary to designate any nonprofit the Secretary wishes to kill a “terrorist supporting organization” and revoke the tax-exempt status on which it depends for survival. Unconstitutional but lethal in the harm it would do while in force.

I can't decide which details from this NYT piece will bother Kash Patel more: referring to his side piece as an "aspiring" country singer or describing how his work ethic (doesn't) compare with Robert Mueller's? www.nytimes.com/2025/11/23/u...

If your boyfriend doesn’t illegally use taxpayer-funded resources to protect you against no imminent danger then he’s just not that into you

“.. ‘Some people better get fired on Monday for the gross buffoonery we just witnessed over the last four days,’ Bacon wrote ..” @mediaite.com 🤡 www.mediaite.com/media/news/c...

Did Kristi and Kash get to Vegas in one of Kristi's Gulfstream G700 private jets taxpayers paid $200,000,000 for or did they use a $60,000,000 FBI private jet that taxpayers also paid for? These are incompetent fools only on the job for the attention and theft.

Kristi and Kash’s taxpayer-funded travel adventures continue.

TELL IT truthfullyà like we've come to depend on you doing..

CROW: We wanted to start a conversation about the dangerous rhetoric this president is using and threats he's made to use our military in an unlawful way BRENNAN: Specifically what? CROW: Send troops into Chicago, into polling stations, kill terrorists' families, shoot peaceful protesters ...

REUTERS: “The situation has sparked worries inside the administration and on Capitol Hill that Witkoff & Kushner skirted the interagency process and the discussions with Dmitriev resulted in a plan that favors Russian interests.” www.reuters.com/world/europe...

Mark Kelly: "They're tying themselves in knots trying to explain why what they're doing with regard to these drug boats is legal. It's questionable at best. One of our biggest allies, the UK, recently stopped sharing intelligence with us in the Caribbean because they question whether this is legal."

Massie: "The president has been saying this is a hoax. Well, he's just now decided to investigate a hoax, if it's a hoax. And I have another concern about these investigations he's announced. If they have ongoing investigations, those documents can't be released. So this might be a big smokescreen."

TENNESSEAN: “Ethics complaint filed claiming 8 Senators ― including @MarshaBlackburn & @SenatorHagerty ― violated conflict of interest rules by supporting a provision allowing them to sue the government for millions…” (Finally they cover this story! 👏🏽) www.tennessean.com/story/news/p...

Remember: The richest 1% evade over $160 billion in taxes every year. That amount would fund SNAP for a year with money to spare. Ask yourself who the real freeloaders are.

My friend @drannieandrews.com will be Lindsey Graham's opponent. She is a pediatric surgeon who has performed spinal surgeries on children, running against a grownup with no spine. Dr. Andrews is poised to perform a full Lindsey-ectomy on the United States Senate.

What a photograph. “Nearly two dozen arrested as faith leaders protested outside a federal immigration facility near Chicago…” Arrested large amounts of peaceful clergy face first on pavement is a pretty good sign you’re not the good guys in the story. www.reuters.com/legal/govern...

I was hoping that Leonard Leo would have a stroke when Pope Leo was ordained. He spent millions of dollars & a decade of inside politicking to get his radical right-wing Cardinal ordained after Pope Francis died. He despised Pope Francis as a "woke" Pope. Now he has one who is even more woke! 🤣

NEVER FORGET: In July 2025, the GOP passed the BBB with $75B in additional, multi-year funding to Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE). BUT the GOP Congress will NOT negotiate to EXTEND ACA Subsidies for 20M+ Americans for $32B. #GOPPriorities

Department of Homeland Security is funneling $10 billion through the Navy in order to construct a sprawling network of migrant detention centers in Louisiana, Georgia, Indiana, Kansas, Pennsylvania and Utah. A source tells CNN that facilities could hold as many as 10,000 people each.
