Earlier this week, Kristi Noem told me under oath that she has not deported veterans. I then introduced her to one that she did deport.
But it’s much worse than that:
@moulton.house.gov got DHS to admit that they’ve deported at least 8 vets and are planning to deport dozens more.

Trump's campaign-trail immigration slurs are now policies and tragedies. Latest example: Hundreds of families still separated despite a judge's order.

I know we’ve been talking about the 25th Amendment being invoked for years now, but we should probably be talking about it a lot more and a lot more seriously right now.
Couple of things here:
1. Trump says he took another cognitive test recently
2. In front of "large numbers of doctors and experts"
3. He called the examinations "long...and very boring"
4. If you're given 3 cognitive exams in one year by panels of doctors, something is VERY wrong with you

The Supreme Court deciding it's entitled to its own facts is every bit as corrosive to democratic society as the breakdown of shared facts/reality caused by media fragmentation and negative partisanship
As Justice Kagan begins her dissent by pointing out, what is even the point of trial, of fact-finding, of clear error, of standards of review, when the Supreme Court simply ignores every single part of that and decides everything purely on the papers without any real consideration of the facts?

Wow, Adm. Holsey didn't leave of his own accord, Hegseth pushed him out. What looked like the SOCOM head resigning rather than do war crimes now looks like SecDef canning him to facilitate war crimes.
