Chicago. Queer. Confounded always. Co-founder of nothing.
The legal system is a Dickensian nightmare. Like Bleak House. It’s an unending maze of deception and futility that ultimately only serves the rich.
The order *also* stipulates that once a week (every Wednesday), the government is to produce "the Broadview daily logs... on a rolling basis until further order of Court."
This is something that also came up during this afternoon's hearing on discovery issues in front of Judge McNally.

Our efforts were incredible and we did as good a job as I could imagine.
We are still under siege and hundreds are still kidnapped

But *their* emails?
Can we circle back to the part where the NY Times never disclosed that they have incriminating information on Donald Trump from sent by Epstein that's been sitting on their email servers for nearly a decade?
Stuff like this makes me wonder why there hasn't been any reporting about Trump having affairs during his presidencies

We need courageous leaders that put working families at the center of all they do.
8 democrats caving to empty promises is an indefensible leadership failure
For the sake of our country, Schumer needs to resign.

Mamdani: "My message to ICE agents & to everyone across this city is that everyone will be held to the same standard of the law. If you violate it, you must be held accountable. There is sadly a sense growing that certain people are allowed to violate that law, whether they be POTUS or ICE agents."

The viral videos show horrifying events, but do not capture the fact that they were EVERYWHERE and took people from at least 3 separate neighborhoods. This was not a one street, one incident event. It was a military style siege stretching from Calvary cemetery to Skokie.

Begging Dems in Congress to just like look at anything Tim Walz says and copy it
Walz: "They are paying contractors to pay down the East Wing but they're not putting money into the food bank. So if there's a sense of frustration in America, it's very real ... when the White House press secretary said their top priority is the ballroom, we could not disagree more."

How did people pose a threat to federal agents? How many warnings did federal agents give prior to deploying tear gas in the Wrigley area? Per the court order.

absolutely shameful that the university has embraced the administration’s demand that it discriminate against its students. this is the board of visitors telling UVA students that if they aren’t white and cisgendered then they don’t belong.
The University of Virginia has capitulated to Trump on transgender and race (affirmative action) issues.
The details are currently sparse, but reporting suggests they've agreed to define trans people out of existence and ban trans students from facilities.
