Well, tens of millions of Americans are going hungry and tens of millions of Americans are losing their health care, but it's all been worth it to ensure transgender citizens can't get passports.

BREAKING: Our client Mario Guevara, an Emmy-winning journalist detained by ICE in retaliation for livestreaming law enforcement activity, will be deported tomorrow to El Salvador.

Mario and his family are being punished for his reporting. This cruelty is meant to stifle our free press.

Sanders: These projects have been appropriated. They were signed by a president. It is illegal to rescind them. And to say to people in Vermont, in New York and California, oh, you didn't vote for Donald Trump, we're going to take away funding that was supposed to go to your state… illegal

When a president brags about gold accessories as proof of “success,” it projects not leadership but authoritarian pageantry.

The Department of Defense is delaying cleanups of forever chemicals at nearly 140 military sites – in some cases, by more than a decade.

Meanwhile, the PFAS industry has spent over $70 million lobbying the Trump administration in just the first half of 2025.

Always follow the money.

More than that. "The FBI ***recorded*** Tom Homan taking the money "after indicating he could help the agents — who were posing as business executives — win government contracts in a second Trump administration."
Tom Homan was investigated for accepting $50,000 from undercover FBI agents. Trump's DOJ shut it down.

The FBI and Justice officials closed the investigation, which a Justice Department appointee had called a “deep state” probe in early 2025.

Quite the Friday fascism dump we’re getting
NEW: The Pentagon told journalists it will require them to pledge they won’t gather any information — even unclassified — that hasn’t been expressly authorized for release, and will revoke the press credentials of those who do not obey. @washingtonpost.com
Pentagon demands journalists pledge to not obtain unauthorized material
Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth is imposing strict new rules that would severely limit the ability of journalists to report on the Pentagon.

There's so much to unpack -- his childish understanding of the world, his raw nerve of grievances, his sociopathy -- but I can't get past what a whiny, pathetic loser you'd have to be as president to stamp your little feet and cry that the media isn't "allowed" to be mean to you. Mom said so guys!
Trump:

"When you have a network, and you have evening shows, and all they do is hit Trump... They're not allowed to do that."

Silly Jimmy Kimmel. He should have just called for all homeless people to be killed and he’d still have a job.

Just so I'm clear:

TV host says we should kill every homeless person? No big deal

TV host says the right must "go to war" with the left? Pfft.

TV host says the government is cracking down on critics? Well, the government cracks down on him for the criticism.

Free speech, everyone.

Set aside Sen. Mike Lee's storm of lies and incitement here. Lee literally made jokes on Twitter about the fmr Speaker of the Minnesota state house being murdered in her home by a right wing extremist. Hard to imagine any more twisted and malicious person in public life.

Kirk didn't serve in the military or hold office. The war hero treatment -- half-mast flags, military guard, Air Force Two escort, calls for a statue at the Capitol or to lie in the Rotunda -- shows that for MAGA, service to Trump has become the highest, most honorable form of service.

What we have seen in the USA is that it doesn't matter how many children or normal people get shot, they won't care.

But if a CEO or Right Wing Politician/Media Personality gets killed.

They will be absolutely furious, livid with rage.

The president of the United States is threatening to strip the citizenship away from an American who says things he does not like.

And our media will invariably present this not as a major crisis, an impeachable offense that must lead to his immediate removal, but as “a spat” between Don & Rosie

This is patently false.

DHS has authority to question and search people coming into the country at points of entry.

But ICE may not detain and question anyone without reasonable suspicion — and certainly not based on their physical appearance alone.

This lawlessness must stop.
