Language buried in this shutdown “deal” allows 8 GOP Senators who tried to throw a coup, sue to get millions in taxpayer money—because Jack Smith got their phone records. THEY TRIED TO THROW A COUP. There is no excuse for any Dem supporting this. This is absolutely wrong. Full stop—Period.

The arrogance of a Senator who is not even running again to take the lead in undermining the Caucus and the voters.
Shaheen: So let me be clear. No one in the senate chamber wants to extend the ACA tax credits more than I do.

Here's how Jim Comey mocks Pam Bondi's attempt to retroactively make Lindsey Halligan a magical pony on Halloween.

![On October 31, 2025—36 days after Ms. Halligan purported to secure the indictment, 31
days after the statute of limitations had expired, and 11 days after Mr. Comey had filed his motion
to dismiss—the Attorney General purported to “appoint Ms. Halligan to the additional position of
Special Attorney, as of September 22, 2025, and thereby ratify her employment as an attorney of
the Department of Justice from that date going forward.” ECF No. 137-1. But that action cannot
retroactively transform Ms. Halligan into an authorized government attorney on the day she
purported to secure the indictment. In Lucia, for instance, the Supreme Court found an
Appointments Clause violation and set aside an adjudication because the relevant official “heard
and decided [the petitioner’s] case without the kind of appointment the [Appointments] Clause
requires.” 585 U.S. at 251. It did not matter that the official’s “prior appointment[]” had been
“ratif[ied]” by a Head of Department after the adjudication had been completed and “[w]hile th[e]
case was on judicial review.” Id. at 252 n.6. If such a post hoc ratification of a prior invalid
appointment sufficed, then the government could moot every Appointments Clause challenge.
The government cites no authority suggesting that an invalid appointment can be excused
so long as the government allegedly “intended” to vest the relevant official “with the powers” of](https://cdn.bsky.app/img/feed_thumbnail/plain/did:plc:bbp2b224lro3bfnzcqwwnkfo/bafkreif47wlavvtkcmm3xbwy76l2owgnsxuxqkm4uc6vmjlkupk2l66uwy@jpeg)

Meanwhile, people unconstitutionally seized or brutalized by ICE agents can’t sue them because there’s no private right of action for them to do that.
Buried inside the deal to reopen government is a provision that would give Senators private right of action to sue for millions in damages over their phone records being analyzed by Jack Smith's team.

Serious question: If the tax remains law, but Trump is gutting enforcement to give tacit permission to corporations to violate the law & hold money owed to the American people, aren’t they involved in a criminal conspiracy?

The head of MI5 asked Kash Patel to protect the job of a London FBI agent, who dealt with surveillance tech that British security would need to monitor a new embassy China wants to build in London, U.S. officials said. After Patel agreed to fund the agent's role, the job is now slated to disappear.
