Bondi reading from formatted lines on paper in answering a question to Sen Whitehouse about whether Tom Homan kept the 50k is quite telling…to say the least

@lawrenceodonnell.msnbc.com: Trump reveals he’s considering pardoning convicted sex trafficker Ghislaine Maxwell youtu.be/B6DTRVn4Gg0?...

Hmm ...🤔

The local PD believes ICE called in a fake 911 call about protestors trying to break into ICE facility. Cops only found a CBS news crew shooting B-roll. Now why would ICE do that?

Well done, @mallorymcmorrow.bsky.social. More Democrats need to speak up. The water is warm here.

The Oregon Republican Party tried to help Donald Trump make the case for military intervention in Portland with an image of a fiery protest — but since Portland is calm, they had to fabricate one by merging old photos of police in Ecuador and protesters in Brazil www.theguardian.com/us-news/2025...

Schumer: That issue that MAGA Mike keeps talking about—illegal immigrants getting health care. It’s an effing lie. The law says that federal dollars cannot go to illegal immigrants under Medicare, Medicaid, or the ACA. And I said that to him in the room. I said, You’re lying. He smirked.

Illinois Governor JB Pritzker explains what he believes is Donald Trump's real goal in normalizing a military presence in U.S. cities by dressing ICE and Border Patrol agents in military gear. Watch:

Foreclosures are surging as U.S. homeowners grapple with rising costs www.cbsnews.com/news/housing...

Less than a year into the Trump admin and the National Governors Association, founded over 115 years ago, is on the brink of collapse.

For families in Virginia, healthcare coverage can cost about $595.94 a month. But with Trump & Republicans refusing to extend the Affordable Care Act tax credit, that same plan will cost $1890 per month - more than many can afford. democraticleader.house.gov/media/press-...

Records obtained by ProPublica indicate that food banks across the country were expecting more than 27 million pounds of chicken, 2 million gallons of milk, 10 million pounds of dried fruit and 60 million eggs that never arrived.

Ohio State University Medical Center RN Catharyne Henderson is right. The government shut down because Trump & Congressional Republicans put politics before protecting healthcare & lowering costs. Working families deserve stability, dignity, and affordable healthcare. www.aft.org/news/aft-mem...

Q: What do popular medications Keytruda, Lyrica, Viagra, Truvada, Ozempic, & Sovaldi have in common? A: They were developed at US universities with federal funding. #HigherEdBenefitsEveryone, and we should invest in research funding - not cut it. wapo.st/4q1M3ly

@radiofreetom.bsky.social The Goldwater Rule does not rule out one or all psychiatrists calling for the replacement of a government official. It only restricts them offering a official diagnosis as the basis for why doing so would be advisable. www.npr.org/sections/sho...

How scared people talk when they know Fox will protect them.

The reason why Trump can’t simply say “no” when asked if he will pardon Ghislaine Maxwell is he needs her to continue to cover for him. Giving her hope for a pardon guarantees she will keep her mouth shut about what she knows.

Love this. Superbly done. Please send this far and wide. @donwinslow.bsky.social

Hey there, @nytimes.com. The judge didn’t “decide not to immediately block.” She ordered a response from the government Wednesday and set a hearing Thursday. Let me know if you need help with this.

Clarence Thomas didn't speak a word from the bench for 10yrs, waiting to unleash hell on the USA. Ketanji Brown Jackson has no need to be silent. She speaks truth about justice. May she have her time in the majority too. www.theguardian.com/us-news/ng-i...

The shuttered DHS Office for Civil Rights and Civil Liberties “was one of the very few tools we had to check ICE, to hold ICE accountable,” immigration lawyer Sophia Genovese said. “Now you see them speeding to complete authoritarianism.” (Published April 2025)

Everything Trump is doing now is a preamble for his regime's real goal: to invoke the Insurrection Act. I don’t want to unduly alarm you, but you need to be aware of this imminent danger. It’s unfolding very rapidly. https://robertreich.substack.com/p/trumps-plan

Irony just took its shoes off and slowly started walking into the ocean until it was never seen or heard from again…

BREAKING: Illinois Governor JB Pritzker threatens to withdraw from the National Governors Association if the organization doesn't speak out against Trump's use of the National Guard in U.S. cities. Watch Gov. Pritzker discuss with Rachel Maddow:

America isn't a country that “polices its communities using the military”: Oregon @agdanrayfield.bsky.social blasts National Guard deployment

Man is @carolleonnig.bsky.social killing it lately with scoops. But this one is going to be a potential slut fast within DOJ. So harkening that career prosecutors are still standing up for the rule of law. x.com/CarolLeonnig...

When you lose MTG on the ACA…. MTG is supporting ACA subsidies with democrats demanding it as part of shutdown fight. “Not a single Republican in leadership talked to us about this or has given us a plan to help Americans deal with their health insurance premiums DOUBLING!”

💰 Ciattarelli’s tax plan favors billionaires and screws working families. He’d rather cut services than ask the ultra-rich to pay their fair share. That’s not reform—it’s robbery.

Meiselas: Mike Johnson said that it would be theatrics to meet in public. Jeffries: It’s not theatrics—it’s what the American people deserve. If Mike Johnson and Republicans feel like they have the high ground, then defend your position publicly, bro.

this is the jacket's breast pocket lining pulled up to make it look like a pocket square

WATCH: CA Gov. Gavin Newsom calls BS on Republican healthcare promises by pointing out the recent damage they’ve done to our healthcare 🎯

Trump has never sounded guiltier than this and that's a high bar

I suspect there’s going to be a ruling that’ll eventually focus on Posse Comitatus rather than the calling up the Guard itself. If they’re giving some background support in Broadview, that might be lawful. If they’re actually hitting the streets of Chicago, bigger questions/problems emerge.

Pritzker is also furious: “Should National Governors Association leadership choose to remain silent, Illinois will have no choice but to withdraw from the organization.”

Ah the same busy airport a near miss happened at this summer. www.latimes.com/california/s...

I’m not any of those either. But I did join Democracy Docket and happily pay the &10/month. For all the great info and analysis, it’s a bargain.

Question: what would the consequences be for red states if California and Illinois withdrew from the Governors Association?

Who torched Judge Diane Goodstein's house in South Carolina, and why? Is this the result of her being targeted by the MAGA horde? We need answers. time.com/7323442/sout...

Trump: "They interviewed people before & something, and I'm watching. A woman there's -- 'I don't care who they bring in. People are being killed here. I just want it to stop. They can bring in whoever they want.' People don't care. They want it to stop. That's what we did- we brought in the Guard."

You Can’t Make This Up, Pravda Publisher Falls Out 7th Floor Window

his brain’s just fucking melted, man, pooling around in his skull and trickling out his ears

Meiselas: Trump claimed that he and the leaders of the Republican Party were speaking with Democrats. Is he being truthful, or is he lying? Jeffries: Well, as far as I can tell, that’s a stone-cold lie

The Trump admin has lied about this case from the start — and now it can't get its story straight about next steps for Mr. Abrego Garcia. This reeks of a political prosecution and the courts must continue to ensure his due process rights are protected.

When is that toe on the base, is all I’m saying. #phils
