The case Pam Bondi brought against Rep McIver in New Jersey isn't going well for DOJ. In discovery, a DHS employee gloats over having assaulted McIver, while other messages show DHS officers using racist slurs against the New Jersey congresswoman.

Some of you have forgotten that only three years ago you were perfectly capable of writing a text, writing an email, telling a bedtime story to a child, and it should worry you that powerful companies have convinced us we can’t do things we’ve been doing since the dawn of time.

years ago, i saw a therapist who falsely advertised herself as trans friendly so she could diagnose trans people with disorders that would preclude access to transition care by casting our judgment into doubt.

that was a decade ago. they're even more organized now.

Brett Kavanaugh (September 2025): The facts and how they relate to the law don’t matter. Assume ICE and other federal forces always act with integrity, always respect rights, and consistently impose minimal burden.

Brett Kavanaugh (December 2025): Should I not have done that? Was that wrong?
Kavanaugh in a footnote in today's opinion says "the officers must not make interior immigration stops or arrests based on race or ethnicity."

The only reasonable position is zero tolerance: the AI industry must end sooner rather than later. It is culturally, socially, environmentally, and economically destructive, and all the Silicon Valley marketing in the world isn't going to make it otherwise.

A few days ago, the National Blood Bank of Sri Lanka said they were running low in the wake of the disaster and called for fifteen hundred donors to help them catch up. Twenty thousand people showed up. Today the Bank said, basically, thanks this is great but please stop now we are too full of blood

I was back at 26 Federal Plaza today, where an ICE agent violently threw this bereft woman to the ground in front of her kids. She had not touched him. She did not pose any threat. She had to be taken to the hospital. (🎥: Elias Eliahu)

I have raised £277. I am so thankful. I have found a return flight for £1209! When/if I raise £500, I will go ahead and by this ticket and pray to make up the difference. I so appreciate you all.
I have a big request. My baby cousin, 15, is in hospital, non-responsive. I'd like to see her one last time & am trying to fly across the ocean *tomorrow* to make this happen. It would cost about £2500 or £3300 dollars. If you're able to contribute, this is my paypal: paypal.me/riversandfam
Pay Rivers Solomon using PayPal.Me
Go to paypal.me/riversandfam and type in the amount. Since it’s PayPal, it's easy and secure. Don’t have a PayPal account? No worries.

Pritzker again exhorts the news media to tell the truth about what's happening:
"I refuse to pretend that any of this is normal."

Pritzker: "When did we become a country where it's ok for the US president to insist on national television that a state should call him to beg for anything? Especially something we don't want. Have we truly lost all sense of sanity in this nation that we treat this as normal?"

Been saying this for months. Messaging is not a buffet. Every time Dem leadership gets gulled into trotting out happy-clappy bipartisan talk because consultants said it polled well, people very reasonably conclude all that talk about Trump threatening democracy must just be disingenuous rhetoric.
"Donald Trump is a monster and we desperately want to work with him" is a batshit position to take, it makes you sound like an insincere and feckless empty suit

In the coming days, we expect to see what's playing out in LA and DC happen in Chicago.

These efforts are not about fighting crime or making communities safer.

This is about Donald Trump testing his power and producing political drama to cover up his own corruption.

Lethal force against a civilian vessel in international waters is a war crime if not in self-defense. If not in self-defense, only non-lethal actions, such as warning shots or disabling fire, are allowed.

"Not yielding to pursuers" or "suspected of carrying drugs" doesn't carry a death sentence.

Vance follows a coterie of online Nazis on X, has described Curtis Yarvin as a major intellectual influence, and openly attacks immigrants in blood and soil terms. The response of most of the political press? "Doesn't look like anything to me."
For the last couple of years much of the media has had the most incredible unwillingness to learn literally anything about JD Vance. Never seen anything like it. Active resistance to learning anything about his ideas.
jesus man, tell me you have no idea who Claremont is or JD Vance's record as a postliberal

Trans people have been around your whole life. You’ve been sharing bathrooms with them your whole life. They’ve been in your communities your whole life. They’ve even been playing sport your whole life.

And you didn’t care *at all* till a few years ago when every right wing org decided you should

The president is sending the military to control American cities and if you're a reporter who's framing that illegal power grab as "pushing the boundaries of constitutionality" or "acting boldly to fight crime" or whatever, please go find another line of work where you won't get us all killed.
