I'm in dire need of help this morning. I have nothing to eat & no gas to go get food. I'm still waiting for my disability to hit my bank but that's not going to be for a few more days. I've been living in my car since Aug. 🙏Repost

First they said "the footage had been 'irretrievably destroyed,'" but they were working to recover it.

Later, it "was lost due to nonspecific 'system crash.'"

Now, it "was never recorded... it would appreciate if the plaintiffs would stop asking... It would be of “marginal relevance” anyway."

Long past time.

Everyone involved with this reign of terror — including Kristi Noem and Stephen Miller — needs to be fired immediately.

To put it another way: Courageous jurists on the lower courts have held back Trump from inflicting even more damage on civil rights and liberties. This timeline sucks, but the one in which the judiciary doesn't even try to push back is FAR worse. We insult these judges when we dismiss their impact.
I’m done with this shit. This isn’t a game. And if you don’t realize that the work of Judges Xinis and Boasberg and Ellis has been an essential part of forcing this administration to account for its actions, you’re not a serious person.

Reconstructing Erna
For one brilliant artist and her Jewish family in 1930s Vienna, self-remaking was a necessity of survival. But there were some harms from which their self-reconstructions could not protect them.

Murder is now legal if you have a badge.
President Trump’s DOJ has decided there will be no civil rights investigation of the fatal shooting of Alex Pretti, and instead two units of DHS will investigate their officers and the man they killed, according to three people briefed on the steps and internal records reviewed by MS NOW.
