This is how Trump rigs the US prosecutors. He just fired a legitimate US prosecutor assigned by federal judges in Seattle. He dominates an interim prosecutor, then lets the term run out without Senate confirmation, then assigns him as an assistant US prosecutor. Not legal or constitutional.

I completely understand 1930-40s Germany now.

Trump on the CHIPS Act: "If you weren't transgender, you didn't qualify. So they'd get the money, they'd look all over for transgender people to run the company."

It's a sign of how shockingly corrupt this country has become that a nominee for Attorney General is given a hearing by the Senate *the very same week* he has been referred by a judge for possible disbarment for unethical behavior. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

HASSAN: If the president instructs you to break the law, will you follow the president's instruction? SCHWARTZ: The president would never ask me to not follow the law HASSAN: There are multiple examples of the president instructing people to break the law, so it's not a satisfactory response

Todd Blanche, Trump’s former lawyer turned acting AG, flew down to “meet” with Ghislaine Maxwell… and suddenly she’s in a minimum security camp where she gets puppy playtime & custom meals. He never stopped being Trump’s personal attorney. He just changed offices. Blanche must not be confirmed.

US president backs tactic despite agency announcing temporary pause after fatal shootings in Texas and Maine.

KLOBUCHAR: Do you agree that it's unacceptable for federal agents to forcibly enter someone's home without a warrant and drag them onto the street without checking that they even have the right person? BLANCHE: Well, it depends on the circumstances. It's not a black and white answer

This is Susan Collins giving the most feckless response to ICE killings possible. She mastered the art of saying almost nothing while people are dying. The only proper response to the killing of Joan Sebastian Guerrero is outrage. VOTE HER OUT

apnews.com/article/para... Twelve states challenged Paramount’s takeover of Warner Bros. Discovery on Monday, filing a lawsuit that argues the $81 billion mega merger would “extinguish competition” in Hollywood and threaten jobs across the industry.

The SAVE Act would rip the vote away from millions of ELIGIBLE Americans including married women who changed their names and who don't have a passport. No one should lose their voice because they're married or because they can't afford passport fees. #Blues

Neguse on Republicans pushing a daylight saving time bill: "We're fiddling with the clocks while the country burns"

Trump says the US military will serve as mercenaries by taking over the Strait of Hormuz and charging everyone a fee to transit equal to 20% of their cargo.

Sen. Lindsey Graham, a longtime Republican lawmaker from South Carolina who went from being one of Donald Trump’s harshest critics to positioning himself in the front ranks of the president’s most deferential supporters, died Saturday.

STEPPING UP Colin Kaepernick is funding an independent autopsy so Nolan Wells’ family can get answers they can trust. Tyler Perry is covering Nolan’s funeral so the family can focus on grieving instead of worrying about the bill. They didn’t have to do this. They chose to, and that matters.

This "tweet" from a year ago has been deleted by its author. I'm posting here now on BlueSky as a reminder and as a public service, for anyone, should they ever need it. Thank you for your attention to this matter.

FEC is without a quorum to act. EAC is without a quorum to act. DOJ is under Trump's direct control. This is a very dangerous time for elections. My advice and request is to sign-up to Democracy Docket to stay informed. bit.ly/4qmEiFz

ICE is surging in the Seattle area. (Map shows activity in the last week) Do you have your whistle with you?

Assistant Attorney General Harmeet Dhillon swears in new civil rights division lawyers at the DOJ. Because nothing says “we care about civil rights” quite like only hiring white people.

ICE has not quieted down. It’s even worse. It’s just become less visible and less covered by the media. Here's what you should know. https://robertreich.substack.com/p/ice-is-even-worse

ICE is not about immigration. ICE is not about the southern border. ICE is about normalizing paramilitary force on our streets. It cannot be reformed. It cannot be retrained. ICE must be abolished.

Since 1994, immigrants have paid more in taxes than they receive in benefits every year. Do not believe the lies you hear about immigrants. They are good for society and the economy.
