Huh — Marjorie Taylor Greene says she doesn't want "to fight and win my election while Republicans will likely lose the midterms. And in turn, be expected to defend the President against impeachment after he…tried to destroy me."
…Any reason she assumes Trump will soon be impeached?

the last brain cell running the switch board in trump’s brain just smashing that “groceries is an old fashioned word” button
Trump on Mamdani: "We had some interesting conversation and some of his ideas are really the same ideas that I have. But a big thing on cost. The new word is 'affordability.' Another word is just 'groceries.' It's sort of an old fashioned word but it's very accurate."

A reporter asks if Mamdani stands by calling Trump a fascist. Mamdani starts to give a delicate answer.
Trump (smiles, pats Mamdani's arm): "That's OK, you can just say yes. It's easier. I don't mind."

There is far less experience required to be an immigration judge than to be a state or federal court judge, which is what most people think of when they hear the word "judge."
Two things are true:
1. Immigration judges are not, well, judges. they are members of the executive branch. you do not receive the kind of process you associate with courts from them.
2. This framing will encourage ppl to apply who will make things worse.

DOJ is now recruiting for immigration judges by calling them “deportation judges.”
That’s seems really bad.

Paywalled, but I'm guessing they probably wouldn't have lost their job with just the DUI charge but likely will now. And now any case they were involved with may be questioned.

This interview is a snapshot into where tech companies are with online harassment right now.
They know how to end it, but they decided not to spend the money. They’re prioritizing growth (and profit) above all else. And they’re blaming YOU for logging on to the platform they designed to be unsafe.

I've heard this attorney say "irregardless" multiple times and try to talk over the judge at least a half dozen times. And now he's bringing in random acts of unrelated racism. 🤷🏽♀️ The judge is being extremely patient. She's mellowed so much since she was the scariest coworker I had!

theres no coming back from this without prosecuting everyone up and down the chain of command
They lied about it. All of it. A thug cop shot an unarmed woman five times without justification, boasted about it to his colleagues, and then this administration tried cover it all up by arresting her and charging her with felonies.
Absolutely incredible; after shooting Marimar Martinez 5 times and arresting her on claims that she rammed them and pulled a gun, prosecutors have now moved to dismiss ALL criminal charges against her and her codefendant.

The reason people don't know that the numbers we use are Arabic is because school, IME, rarely teaches that fact explicitly.
We sure do learn that we use the Roman alphabet though.
People's negative reaction to the "test" of Arabic numbers being taught in school is Islamphobia though.
