Rep. Lieu calls for a new investigation into Epstein’s death after released documents show a prison guard responsible for checking on him deposited $5000 into her account 10 days before his death and googled him right before he was found.

Here's back to back clips of Fox & Friends misleading viewers this morning by presenting as though it's new an old clip of Donald Trump attending a dignified transfer without his campaign baseball cap on (unlike yesterday, when he wore one), then apologizing for it later in the show

Today's Supreme Court ruling on gerrymandering in New York, despite constant assurance that these issues must be left to the States, means that it has become literally impossible to defend the integrity of the Court. "Racial bias" apparently exists only when white people are the beneficiaries.

Woman sues Kenbridge, police after chief allegedly tipped off shooting suspect The town of Kenbridge and its police department are facing a lawsuit of more than $140 million.

We aren’t angry enough.

White House stalls release of approved US science budgets The US Congress rejected sweeping cuts to science agencies. But the NIH, the NSF and NASA have had their spending slowed.

Congress rejected massive cuts to US science budgets for 2026, but much of the money still isn’t flowing to researchers.

The culprit? The White House Office of Management and Budget (OMB) is quietly slow-walking the release of funds. πŸ§΅πŸ‘‡

The Democratic response to the SOTU speech needs to be a demand for impeachment and removal w/ a clinical dissection of Republican weakness and obsequiousness in the face of a Constitutional crisis. Frame these new tariffs as a tax on the American people and a rallying cry to vote Republicans out.

Seeking Pardon, Foreign Billionaire Allegedly Funneled Millions to Trump Super PAC

Trump pardoned a billionaire who had pledged to illegally route foreign money into U.S. elections as part of a scheme to bribe Puerto Rico’s governor β€” after the billionaire's daughter gave $3.5M to Trump's super PAC.

But the facts point to another legal violation. campaignlegal.org/update/seeki...

By this warped reasoning I'm British since most of my ancestry is British. But I've never lived in Britain and the last of my ancestors to have lived there immigrated to the US in the early 1800s. I guess if we follow this to its logical end, we're all really Ethiopians. Blood & soil is bullshit.

The scene when the two sisters were talking while laying in the bed was one of the most raw and beautifully performed scenes I've ever seen. It will stay with me for a long time.

"It is totally inappropriate and against the separations of powers for the DOJ to surveil us as we search the Epstein files. (US Attorney General) Bondi showed up today with a burn book that held a printed search history of exactly what emails I searched." - Rep. Pramila Jayapal (D-WA).

Nazi concentration camp prisoner population by year

ICE is currently holding around 80,000 detainees. Nazi Germany didn't reach this number in its formal camp system until 1942, nine years after seizing power and three years into the war.

I'm hardly the first person to note this, but it's enormously instructive that our President and his followers saw the message "THE ONLY THING MORE POWERFUL THAN HATE IS LOVE" and understood it, correctly, as an attack on them

DHS Hunts Down 67-Year-Old U.S. Citizen Who Criticized Them in Email The Department of Homeland Security is using a little-known tool to go after its critics.

Floored by this story. A man wrote a pollite email to a federal prosecutor objecting to the deportation of an Afghan seeking asylum. DHS responded with an administrative warrant to get the man's info from Google, then visited his home to intimidate him.

People are dying in Trump’s squalid concentration camps | Will Bunch Deaths are occurring in ICE detention facilities at nearly 10 times the rate of the Biden years. It will likely get worse.

How bad have things gotten in one year? People are now dying in "the camps" - with deaths in ICE detention at the astounding rate of 1 every 3 days, including a homicide by guards at the biggest tent city in Texas

This video filmed by Ben Luhmann shows the moment a federal agent sprayed chemical irritants directly into a man's face in south Minneapolis.

Three agents already had the man pinned to the ground when a fourth agent walked up and sprayed the irritants.
