Federal immigration enforcement officials called off a planned raid on Canal Street today shortly before it was slated to begin.
New Yorkers who heard about the raid showed up at the garage where the feds had gathered, and as federal agents tried to leave, the NYPD cleared the way for them.

So, now Trump says his tariffs will eliminate the need for income tax within a couple of years.
I’m not even going to bother to explain why this is the dumbest statement that has ever been issued by a leader of any country since the beginning of time.

Former Pentagon lawyers release damning statement: 'Trump is committing premeditated murder of civilians at sea'
The Pentagon’s own former lawyers say the Secretary of Defense ordered a “kill everybody” strike — and they’re calling it what it is: a war crime.

Throughout history technological developments have promised great wealth for all. However this has proved widely over optimistic. Farming, the industrial revolution, automation, the internet and now ai. Greater wealth has only been for those who control the means and systems. The rest get poorer

The president has illegally declared war to stop fentanyl trafficking from a country that does not traffic that drug, claiming its leader is trafficking drugs himself, the day after pardoning a former leader of a country who is a convicted drug trafficker.

This Is Good, But ICE Will Ignore It….
HUGE VICTORY: A judge just ruled EVERYONE picked up by ICE is entitled to a bond hearing in front of a judge – no more disappearing people into indefinite detention, for no reason. 👏 GOOD.

The pentagon papers were leaked changing history. I don’t get why the Epstein files are so protected. Seems like there would be someone out there that would leak them.

Creating a military conflict with Venezuela gives this administration a legal "hook" to invoke the Alien Enemies Act. In other words, the foreign war is being manufactured in order to facilitate court deference for its domestic mass deportation policy. It's a Stephen Miller Special.

We can do away with it without a new Supreme Court. Nor do we need a constitutional amendment. There’s a far simpler way.

One way of understanding retaliation against complaining sexual abuse victims is as a hedge against this kind of liability.
The big question on the horizon is how the insurance industry will respond to this. Studio films need to be insured, which involves risk assessment, and getting a company to insure a film against potential sexual harassment lawsuits could make some folks unhirable, and thus their films unmakable.
