A Minneapolis judge released Georgia Fort from detention
A judge in Los Angeles released Don Lemon in the last hour. Just minutes ago he said “I will not be silenced”
Prosecutors told the judge Lemon was a “threat” to the community and should be locked up.
Outrageous.

I was wondering what Mamdani's first executive order would be, and I'm not disappointed by this.
He has wiped off the books EVERY Eric Adams executive order issued on or after September 26, 2024, the day Adams was indicted on federal bribery charges.

Let's not, in fact, "hand it" to Rand Paul.
His opinions line up with reality about twice a year; and until his hit/miss ratio improves significantly, we should really be hounding the fucking news outlets that keep giving him oxygen.

We shouldn’t have to debate who “deserves” food, healthcare and housing.
We should be angry that these things aren’t guaranteed to everyone.
We should be outraged that the wealthy & corporations continue to profit off the misery and suffering of others.

The president posted/reposted more than 100 times last night from 7:20 pm to midnight, attacking Democrats and immigrants, pushing conspiracy theories (including from Alex Jones), proudly sharing the video when he called a woman reporter “stupid,” and much more. Wild stuff.
