NEW -- The White House is claiming that a newly unconcovered FBI document showing a 2006 phone call from Trump ratting out Epstein to the Palm Beach police vindicates him.
No, it absolutely does not.

now that's the power of a union
I spoke to @juliango.bsky.social about the imperial boomerang and how US war tactics abroad are being employed at home by ICE
"America’s cities are treated as colonial zones of conquest and imperial borderlands because that’s all ICE knows. If all you have is a hammer, everything looks like a nail"
We could not have pulled off this incredible deal without each and every member of the unit standing together. We are so proud and grateful to work alongside such brave and compassionate people. #SolidarityForever

One of the best interviews I've had about my book, with @mattshuham.bsky.social, just published at @huffpost.com, my old stomping grounds (where the @huffpostunion.bsky.social deserves a fair contract!)

Q for anyone who works at the VA:
Has the VA secretary or leadership said anything internally addressing the fucking elephant in the room that one of their VA colleagues was just shot to death by a federal agent?
Hearing from one source it's been a cone of silence in there, no comms to staff.
We have nine days left until our current CBA expires. Here are our contract demands, straight from the voices that make the stories at @huffpost.com possible.
With ten days until our contract expires, our unit is not willing to settle for less. We're standing together until we reach a fair deal.
If Democrats in Congress have any chance at reining in how ICE is operating under Trump, it’s right now.
Even if it's not by very much. www.huffpost.com/entry/democr...
New: In the days following the killing of Renee Good by ICE agent Jonathan Ross, ICE agents in one local office were called into a meeting. “We were briefed on avoiding standing in front of cars, wherever possible,” one agent present at the meeting told HuffPost.

I’ll be in Minneapolis briefly, until Tuesday morning.
I’m available at 646-397-4678 by cell or Signal, if anyone has tips or other things they think HuffPost readers ought to know. Ty!
Too many internet sleuths created and shared AI-altered photos of the ICE agent who fatally shot Renee Good this week. I wrote about the damage and confusion these AI tools can do: www.huffpost.com/entry/ice-sh...

Federal agents blocked a man identifying himself as a doctor from reaching the woman killed by ICE in Minneapolis, video shared with HuffPost shows www.huffpost.com/entry/latest...
an eyewitness to the Minneapolis ICE shooting told me the victim appeared "obviously scared" and "was going to leave" before an ICE agent fired multiple shots "right into, it seemed like, her face" www.huffpost.com/entry/ice-sh...
Trump just posted this photo of the sharpest minds in our intelligence community hard at work during the Venezuelan operation.
Trump's promise to "run" Venezuela suggests a huge task for the State Department — which he + Rubio have decimated. Personnel at State, particularly the key Western Hemisphere Affairs bureau, are already stunned, anxious and saying they are badly under-prepared, a former State official tells me.
Also the plot of The Shining
We received our first counterproposals from management today with disappointing language — including no guaranteed wage increases this year and rollbacks of hard-fought language on diversity and severance. We stand united and ready to fight for the contract we deserve.
Not coincidentally this is a pretty good list of Most Important Companies to Unionize.
damn daniel back at it again…
