So Trump bulldozed a third of the White House complex. And they’re trying to keep the photos off limits.

i don't get it. omen sushi in nyc is cheaper than nobu in malibu, where you dined last year without your wife
Michael Rapaport tweets: "How’s a so-called “working class” mayoral candidate like Zohran Mamdani eating at OMEN SUSHI tonight — one of the priciest joints in NYC? 🍣💰 This clown lives in a rent-stabilized apartment in Queens but dines like a diplomat on a Qatar-funded per diem. Who’s paying for that toro, “Zoron the Moron”?" There are two photos of Zohran Mamdani and his wife eating at a restaurant. Michael Rapaport eating outside of a restaurant. There are some white canopy umbrellas around him and a tree in the background. Also the ocean and some fence. Two photos. The first shows the outside of Nobu in Malibu. The second shows the area where Michael sat. There is the same tree, ocean, white canopy umbrellas, and fence. The menu for Nobu in Malibu shows prices around $60. The menu for Omen Sushi in NYC shows prices around $35.

Bodycam footage conflicts with DHS account of Chicago woman's shooting by Border Patrol, lawyer says
A woman who was shot multiple times by U.S. Customs and Border Protection agents did not ram them with her car and had her weapon stored in her purse at the time of the incident, according to her lawyer, contradicting accounts by the U.S. Department of Homeland Security that described the shooting as an act of self-defense.

Nothing says Make America Great Again quite like giving Argentina’s dictator $40B to help save his country from sheer ruin whilst also preparing to flood the American markets with imports from that same country like Argentinian Beef which will be catastrophic for US farmers.

Six months after ICE apprehended 47 people, including nine kids, in Hays County, Tex., County Judge Ruben Becerra says DHS has ignored his attempts to get answers:

“We’re not told why they took them, and we’re not told where they took them. By definition, that’s a kidnapping.”
How Trump is Building a Violent, Shadowy Federal Police Force
Trump’s DHS appointees have dismantled civil rights guardrails, protected agents’ anonymity and encouraged them to wear masks, threatened groups that stood in their way, and overwhelmed legal challeng...

Sen. Jeff Merkley is holding the Senate floor tonight for We the People.

While Trump turns our democracy into a dictatorship, Merkley's standing tall and saying what millions of us feel:
HELL NO.

Power belongs to the people, not to one man.

To monitor license plate violations, the secretary of state's office has established a "Plate Watch Hotline" where residents can report potential violations, which the secretary of state's office will then investigate, it says. Reports can be made by calling the hotline at 312-814-1730 or emailing platewatch@ilsos.gov. "No one, including federal agents, is above the law, and we intend to hold them accountable, especially while driving on our roadways," Giannoulias said in the news release. "This is a matter of public safety and protecting the wellbeing of our communities."

EXCLUSIVE: One Saturday afternoon in October, my phone lit up with a notification.

I glanced down at the message.

“Anna, Lindsey Halligan here,” it began.

So began my text exchange with the woman who is prosecuting the president's perceived political enemies.

Trump is head of the DOJ and demanding we pay him $230 million because, though guilty, he forced DOJ to drop the case, and now he is AGAIN a pathetic, whiney VICTIM. L

Every Republican needs to speak up or be asked about this by media. The grifter is grifting.

This is a great point by @allenanalysis.bsky.social
A post by @allenanalysis on Twitter: I wish conservatives understood this: Without blue states, America would look like a developing country - patchy internet, collapsing schools, no tech, no medicine, no future. Red states cash the checks. Blue states write them. You don't fund the nation - you drain it. The loudest shouts come from the emptiest hands. A graphic of GDP broken out by county, color coded red for GOP counties and blue for Dem counties, shows how blue counties are responsible for he OVERWHELMING majority of GOP this nation produces. ... Figure 1. Candidate's share of 2018 Gross Domestic Product (GDP) by county in the 2020 presidential election The more-than-500 counties won by Joe Biden generated 71 percent of America's GDP in 2018 The more-than-2500 counties won by Donald Trump generated 29 percent of America's GDP in 2018 Oklahoma, OK Los Angeles, CA Tarart SAA New York, NY Maricopa, AZ Cook, IL Harris, TX Santa Clara, CA Source: Brookings analysis of data from BEA, Dave Leip's Election Atlas, and The New York Times Allen Analysis B Metropolitan Policy Progran at BROOKINGS
