This is legal jargon for "you and your lawyers are full of shit," which is really not something that should happen when the "you" is a federal government agent and the "your lawyers" are the federal government's lawyers.

So her defense of the President is... the reporter actually is a piggy? Jfc.
Q: What did the president mean when he called a reporter "piggy"?

LEAVITT: Look, the president is very frank & honest with everyone in this room. You'll all seen it yourself. You've all experienced it yourselves. And I think it's one of the many reasons the American people reelected this president

Deeply reported piece on how US authorities are detaining people based on nothing more than driving patterns captured by hidden cameras and flagged by opaque algorithms.

I'm case you had any doubt, even the military lawyer advising decision makers said these strikes were illegal.
As we knew all along, these were murders.
“The lawyer at U.S. Southern Command, which oversees the operations against alleged drug-smuggling boats near Venezuela, disagreed that the strikes are legal and was overruled, according to six sources.”

Trump in a room with a very charismatic person results in like half a day of Trump agreeing with everything that person said, so this has the potential to be very, very funny.

Wow. Thirty thousand students just walked out in Charlotte to protest ICE. When kids are willing to shut down an entire city to push back on state power, that’s a political awakening.

Trump's economy is being held up by a massive AI bubble.

A recent study found that of 300 companies that owned generative AI tools, 95% reported zero return on their investments.

We will not entertain a bailout of these companies should this bubble pop.

We found that Donald Trump has granted clemency in at least a dozen criminal cases that originated during his first term.

No president since Clinton has used clemency to erase his own appointees’ actions on such a scale.

a) this fucking sucks, wtf Apple?

b) anybody got the link avail, the one about how to remove this?
Not satisfied with just destroying their own brand goodwill, OS companies are now using AI to try to destroy the good names of the apps users install. (Scrivener taking out adds to explain how it has no AI but Apple adds some anyway.)

Why not both? Trump got elected by promising lower grocery prices AND by accusing his opponents of being corrupt, radical lunatics.

I don't know the precise constellation of changes, but this idea deserves some serious thought.
I think we should start thinking now about how to excise this cancer - special anti corruption courts, special branch of the DOJ, insulate it from maga judges etc

Trump’s decimation of FOIA offices across the federal government is unacceptable. Americans deserve access to the records of the government they fund.

Use our new action center tool to tell Congress to keep FOIA offices open.
