Ghislaine Maxwell: as she is doing time already, Congress shd immunize her which would force her to have to testify (she is currently objecting based on the 5th A). She can be prosecuted if she lies or refuses to testify. And it would make it that much more outlandish for Trump to later pardon her.

Let’s not forget that the felon occupying the WH had no qualms about the possibility of Mike Pence being hung at a gallows built by true insurrectionists.
He is a danger to all that is sacred in this country.

The Trump admin submitted a sworn declaration under oath that Costa Rica had changed its mind and would no longer take Mr. Abrego.

Costa Rica has now said publicly that that this is false, that they have not changed their position at all, and that they will still take him.
Unpacked:
In Aug., Govt said if Abrego pled guilty he could go to Costa Rica, where he's okay with going. Abrego said no to plea. Govt now wants to send him to Liberia. Why not Costa Rica? Govt told judge Thurs that Costa Rica wouldn’t take him anymore. @mariasacchetti exposed them.
Costa Rica will accept Abrego, per @washingtonpost.com .
If true, DOJ, DHS, and Dept of State caused lies to be disseminated to Judge Xinis all day Thursday, where an ICE official testified about info sent him by Dept of State, claiming Costa Rica wouldn't take Abrego.

CRITICAL - MUST LISTEN:

We MUST focus on winning the midterms, and try to get a 2/3 majority in the house and Senate. Then we can enact Article 2, Section 4

📢 New paper on the impacts of AMOC collapse on European hydroclimate. 🌊

We find an AMOC collapse would exacerbate drought conditions across Europe, linked to reduced precipitation. In combination with climate change droughts are expected to become more frequent and severe.

Abstract. The Atlantic Meridional Overturning Circulation (AMOC) is expected to weaken or even collapse under anthropogenic climate change. Given the importance of the AMOC in the present-day climate,...

When a government speaks responsibly about climate risks. Iceland's climate minister Jóhannsson:
"We believe that confronting climate tipping points and the risks they pose openly is not a sign of 'pessimism' or 'alarmism' but a sign of realism and responsibility."

My law firm is currently litigating 61 voting and election cases, including 12 redistricting cases. We have four cases in one stage or another before the Supreme Court.

These cases — and others like them —
will play a pivotal role in whether we have free and fair elections in 2026 and 2028.

"The Attorney General of the United States has set a new low for this committee," Whitehouse said.

Shouldn't doing what Pam Bondi is accusing James Comey of doing be a scandal that would make her have to resign? In her case it's is easily proven that she lied to the committee.

I'm pressuring Trump to release the transcript of his call with MBS.

As I said on Meet the Press, the American people deserve to know what was said on that call. Checkmate, Mr. President.

This is not the first time the president has attacked me, and it won’t be the last. 
  
But let’s be clear about what he’s trying so hard to distract from: his disturbing phone call with the Saudi Crown Prince after the murder of journalist and Virginia resident Jamal Khashoggi.

Think of steel as flour for the manufacturing economy. A tariff is like a flour tax: the mill might add 1,000 jobs, but factories using flour cut around 75,000. That’s what happens when you tax an input instead of solving the real problem.

The government’s own court reporter says the grand jury was literally released before they could have voted on the indictment… and somehow we’re all supposed to pretend the math adds up? This isn’t “procedural confusion.”
