He summoned Boebert to the Situation Room to pressure her to withdraw her name. Called Mace. Threatened Massie and Greene. Now he knows it will pass and he’s trying to save face. But he also knows it may die in the senate and DOJ intends to cite a new “pending investigation” to block it.

ICE does not let people decline to be scanned by its new facial recognition app, which the agency uses to verify a person’s identity and their immigration status. Any face photos taken by Mobile Fortify will be stored for 15 years, including those of U.S. citizens.

Thieving liars who lie about saving the ACA
UPDATE: The Senate votes 53-47 to shoot down the Baldwin amendment to extend ACA funds for 1 year. A party-line vote with every Republican rejecting it.
An important vote in this series: Tammy Baldwin’s proposal to extend ACA expiring funds for 1 year. It’s structured as a motion to table (i.e. scrap it from the amendment tree). But it’ll show the appetite (or lack thereof) in the Senate to address this issue.

"World's first potential trillionaire has killed 600,000 people, including 400,000 children" is the only headline that anyone should ever read about Elon Musk
One analytical model shows that, as of November 5th, the dismantling of U.S.A.I.D. has already caused the deaths of 600,000 people, two-thirds of them children. https://newyorkermag.visitlink.me/jUzNSc

The United States now has an immigration enforcement apparatus that, if it were its own national military, would be the thirteenth-most-heavily funded military in the world. And the president of the U.S. wants to turn that heavily funded, extramilitary against you. trib.al/j6h0dad
The Case for the Forever Shutdown
Senate Democrats actually allowing the GOP to stop funding the government is only the first step. Now they have to make the case that Trump’s government is illegitimate.

Some clarifications. But still weird.
@autonomynews.co received a tip yesterday about concerns that the FDA seemed to have made some sort of change regarding mifepristone.
As it turns out, it wasn’t bad news—a new generic has been approved.

NEW: On Tuesday, FDA approved a new generic for mifepristone from Evita Solutions. The FDA also modified the shared REMS for mifepristone to include the new generic. You can see the company's announcement here: www.evitasolutionsllc.com

It isn't until the 26th paragraph that there is mention that what Trump is doing is being challenged as illegal. And it accepts Trump's stated rationale to act.
Here is what I think: Trump is illegally deploying the military in blue cities to set the stage to interfere with the 2026 elections.
