A large CAVA bag stuffed with what it says is $50,000 for White House Border Czar Tom Homan.

It’s been reported Homan took bribery money when he was recorded by the FBI accepting a bag full of $50,000 in cash.

If you gave someone $1 million every day since the birth of Jesus Christ, they'd have about $741 billion.

But that's still less than Elon Musk, who's currently worth $841 billion, according to Forbes.

The two children who returned to MN today say they saw one of their Valley View schoolmates at a detention center in TX. This is a child whose family was last in contact with the school on January 9. No one has known where they were until now.

These 2 kids detained last week were brought back to MN today. But school officials say many others from the Columbia Heights district are missing. They're not sure if they're in ICE detention or have moved away with their families. www.mprnews.org/story/2026/0...

Abolish ICE is too confusing. What we meant to say is that "no masks should be deployed in an arbitrary and capricious fashion."
Yes. Yes! Thank you

A journalist asks about justice for Epstein survivors.
He responds by attacking her; her face, her demeanor, her smile.

When the question is dangerous, he goes after the woman asking it. Not her facts. Not her reporting. Her existence.

And survivors are watching.

So are our daughters.

BREAKING: 8 more U.S. Attorneys in MN resign from Trump’s DOJ in protest as backlash grows.
This isn’t normal; isn’t routine reshuffling. It’s a rebellion.
Last month, 6 veteran prosecutors quit in protest. Normal staffing for the MN DOJ’s office is around 50 attorneys. They’re down to just 9.

These blockades are a beautiful experiment in improvised community defense. They are easy to start with just a couple friends, and whatever you have lying around.

Let's make the Twin Cities impassible to ICE and all supporting forces.

DOJ has broken the social contract under which they deserved a degree of deference.

Serve the public and enforce the law, then courts, lawyers, and the people grant the presumption DOJ is trying to do that.

The Trump DOJ, in words and actions, rejects that in favor of lies and aiding lawbreaking.
STEPHANOPOULOS: The indictments of Comey and James came after Trump explicitly said they're 'guilty as hell.'

BLANCHE: If you're a DOJ prosecutor, you're expected to effectuate this administration's priorities. You're reading a small part of a Truth.

As more academic names keep coming up in the Epstein files, I keep thinking about this NYT interview with the Bard president from a few years ago, and wondering how many people were rationalizing in similar ways.

hindsight is 20/20 but maybe selecting university presidents on their willingness to debase themselves for private donor money is related to the current difficulties in defending academia from fascism
