ICEstapo detained 81 people in Charlotte, NC yesterday.

The internet is littered with videos of them using excessive force and ignoring legal documentation provided by the detainees.

Here’s my advice for ICEstapo:

Take a night off.

Go to the movies.

Watch “Nuremberg”.

Your time is coming.

KERNEN: When Trump keeps saying 'prices are falling,' that's not true. I think you should admit that.

HASSETT: But purchasing power has gone up by about $1,200 this year. It's just astonishing to me that the cost problem is somehow being blamed on us.

I knew they blamed immigrants for everything, but I didn’t think they would blame immigrant cows for hamburger prices.

Obwohl das Asylrecht im Grundgesetz verankert ist, kommt es immer mehr zu einer de-facto Abschaffung des Asyls. In vielen Fällen wird der tatsächliche Zugang zu dem Grundrecht verhindert - oft auch durch bewussten und systematischen Rechtsbruch.

The Atlantic speaks with one of the jurors in the case of the man who threw a Subway sandwich at a federal agent.

The juror says that, despite two initial holdouts, it was ultimately pretty easy to acquit: "a clear majority felt it was nonsensical, like, don't waste our time or money."

Trump tells the GOP to vote to release the files, and he’ll give them whatever they’re “legally entitled to.” How long before he tells everyone they’re legally entitled to nothing because of the open and ongoing “investigation” he opened into a “hoax”?

“I was 14… I was 16… this was me when I met Epstein… there are thousands of us… time to let the secrets out of the shadows”

Powerful ad from survivors ahead of a vote to tell us where each House rep stands on protecting kids vs protecting pedophiles.

Chris Murphy on possible military strikes on Venezuela: "It's pretty clear it's just an effort to distract people from the rising prices and the Epstein scandal. No one wants a war with Venezuela ... and by the way, it's wildly illegal."

x/twitter app is now tagging screenshots you take with the x dot com logo in the upper right.

It is intercepting the screenshot and injecting the logo which does not appear before the screenshot is taken.

I would not be surprised if this mechanism was used to inject tracking pixels too.

Es wirkt wie Inkompetenz, die bei der Union Politik macht, aber es ist Lobbyismus und Korruption. Andere kann solche Politik mit nur halbwegs guter und kompetenter Beratung nicht erklärt werden. Es ist fast alles völlig faktenfrei und realitätsfern. Nichts davon hilft den Menschen.
