For Everything is Political, I reported on young people working multiple jobs. It's about more than side hustles—factors like worker exploitation & lack of opportunities to break in have impacted multiple generations. Now, some young adults say working only one job has never felt viable.

It’s Kent Nishimura. He’s one of the best photojournalists of this era. Please use his name.
A Reuters photographer captured this image of a page from Pam Bondi's "burn book," which she used to counter any questions from Democratic lawmakers during an unhinged hearing today.
It looks like the DOJ monitored members of Congress’s searches of the unredacted Epstein files.
Just wow.

President Donald Trump's administration ramped up its pressure on the U.S. judiciary on Tuesday, with the Justice Department saying it has asked federal prosecutors to supply it with the "most egregious examples" of judges impeding his agenda so Congress could take action against them.

Hey, literally everyone in the lefty media... you do not have to give it to rightwing shitheads like Tillis or MTG who occasionally say something critical of Trump but agree with him on literally every other policy.
Tillis is a POS who ran on scaring people over voter suppression. Fuck him.

Here it is. For the third time.
I'm calling on DHS and DOJ's IGs to heed the public outcry and finally launch a joint task force to investigate the horrific pattern of brutality from Trump's agents, including the public execution of Alex Pretti.

Clearly, the Trump Administration cannot be trusted to investigate their own agents' pattern of brutality that has led to them murdering two Americans.

Our independent watchdogs are failing the American people.
ICE has attacked citizens, cops and kids in Chicago.
They are killing people in Minneapolis.
Then turn around and lie to our faces.
If this pattern of abuse doesn't warrant a joint investigative task force, what does??

More than 1,000 troops from NATO allies died alongside American servicemembers in Afghanistan.
The only time Article V has ever been invoked was after 9/11, and NATO came to our aid without hesitation.

Nuclear defense is why we built a base on Greenland in 1951. We had this idea 75 years ago. The base has been there since then. You don’t have to invade a country where you already have everything. Invasion just destroys what you have and much else besides.
