The DC Guard deployment was found to be unlawful days ago, and now 500 more troops are being sent in. These are the illegal orders Democrats in Congress warned about. Soldiers should not be risking their lives for a madman who uses them as political pawns.

nuzzi / lizza misconduct imo enabled the destruction of so much public health & scientific research — and a resurgence in measles in the US. this is not petty tabloid gossip or inside baseball. that they went undetected or were rewarded while great reporters were laid off? it’s a huge system failure

As a framing for the scale of say Nora Roberts or Stephen King (industry tentpoles) understand that they sell a hundred times more books than I do, and I sell 100 times more books than the average author. Romance is carrying the entire industry tbh, but most books aren't profitable like this.

All current employees were put on indefinite leave, and now I've learned one has been fired in violation of federal protections:

Interesting thread on Epstein Evidence...
The FBI and the DOJ are redacting the Jeffrey Epstein evidence, primarily to protect victim privacy and avoid compromising ongoing investigations. However, the law PROHIBITS redactions solely to prevent embarrassment or reputational harm to public figures.

Supreme Court for now allows Register of Copyrights to remain in office despite Trump's effort to fire her. It will decide what to do after it hears arguments in the more high profile cases over Trump's attempt to fire Lisa Cook from the Fed and members of other hitherto independent agencies.

I find it hilarious that people are upset about a wedding ring. I don’t wear mine. My husband wears his. I don’t wear mine bc I have MCAS and my fingers randomly swell throughout the day. I’ve nearly had to have mine cut off from getting stuck. I love my husband and I don’t need a ring to prove it
The excuse for Usha Vance's missing wedding ring is bizarre and preposterous. Look, she doesn't do dishes, so why pretend otherwise?
But this bullshit claim tells us a lot about how JD Vance is trying to humble his wife in public.

Apparently it’s a crime to remind military members to follow the law and refuse illegal orders (something that it is ingrained in basic) and the pentagon can recall you into the service to discipline you. However, the pentagon will not prosecute you for dodging the draft five times.

The Secretary of "Defense" hates, hates, hates girls and anyone who values them. (And women too.)
Congress requires DOD to facilitate Scouts activities but the Secretary can ignore the law in cases where it is “detrimental to national security." Hegseth is preparing to do so because the scouts have become too inclusive of girls.

I am ready to go beyond implication and say after reading the facts here that one of the most recognizable people working in the White House almost certainly had ICE arrest her nephew's mother as a favor to her brother
This article heavily implies that ICE is being used in a custody dispute to help Karoline Leavitt's brother get his son and have the mother locked up in ICE detention
"A woman with a family connection to White House Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt has been arrested by Immigration and Customs Enforcement agents in Revere, Massachusetts."
