BREAKING: A few minutes ago, a vehicle of three people was rammed by a truck belonging to federal immigration authorities in Boyle Heights, CA. According to security footage shown to me, they deployed chemical munitions & detained the driver at gunpoint. All are US citizens according to the wife.

“In 2012, in Arizona v United States, the highest court in the land ruled that “as a general rule, it is not a crime for a removable alien to remain in the United States”.

Universities are caving to Trump with a stunning speed and scope
Some of the nation’s oldest and wealthiest institutions are swiftly bending to President Donald Trump, who is acting on longstanding conservative criticisms of universities as elitist and progressive.

It is a sad day for the legal industry. Paul Weiss, didn't just bend a knee, it set a new standard for shameful capitulation. This is a stain on the firm, every one of its partners, and the entire legal profession.

They do seem like inconsistent positions, but the attacks on teachers was really about dismantling public schools to get taxpayer dollars for home schoolers and private charter schools run by charlatans.

British PM Starmer hugged Zelenskyy. That’s how bad U.S. foreign policy has gotten—it’s driving the Brits to physical displays of emotion.

There it is! "Putin went through a hell of a lot with me. He went through a phony witch hunt." He is referring to them weathering their collusion becoming public, and now is the big payback: together until the end.
Trump to a reporter who asks him about Russia breaking a ceasefire: "What if a bomb drops on your head right now ... Putin went through a hell of a lot with me. He went through a phony witch hunt."

In fact, this may be the actual moment we finally realize how tightly trump’s reign of terror holds lawmakers. And that there’s no one coming to save us. No matter what they do.
Watching the republicans line up to say how great trump was is astonishing. I guess it shouldn’t be by now but it is.
Dimestore Goebbels letting spineless Republicans who think Trump was a jackass today know that they better have his back on this and praise him or else they will be looking at a primary. Or worse.

Wow. So I’m sure no one could have possibly predicted that the Zelenskyy visit was just a publicity stunt to pick a fight with him, kick him out, and then blame him when we help Putin destroy his country. So transparent and they don’t even care.
