Tatiani Elliot was brave today.
She is a survivor of childhood sexual abuse and gave her testimony in front of Washington state legislators. And they silenced her.

One of the series of Epstein files documents that has launched a criminal investigation in Norway—into Thorbjøn Jagland, on suspicions of corruption and espionage. But according to Todd Blanche, US prosecutors see nothing wrong here—though it presents a clear violation the FCPA, 15 USC §§ 78dd-1

"We can't fix the Dems, we need a new viable third party" is the political equivalent of "we can't fix Earth's environment, let's colonize Mars"
In that however hard the first one might be - maybe very! - the second one is orders of magnitude harder

Kinda wild that credit cards on ORCA is going to make fare enforcement almost impossible.
Fare checkers can’t scan credit cards so the plan is for you to read your CC number to them (in public!). On Apple Pay, you can only see the last 4 so if someone else has the same last 4 as you, you ride free

An executive order to rescind a tariff that was already illegally imposed by proclamation which violated both US domestic law & a signed/ratified international treaty. We are a very serious country, with a very serious political system. Please clap.

Big congrats to the Trump admin for walking themselves into an order that they declare, under oath, what actions they have been taking to mobilize ICE in Springfield, Ohio and South Florida. Whoops.
NEW: In response to DOJ's request for a stay pending appeal of her Haiti TPS order, Judge Reyes questions the "suspect" nature of DOJ's "irreparable harm" arguments, orders DOJ to file a declaration about what actions DHS has taken "in expectation" Haiti TPS would end, and sets a hearing for 2/12.

I keep thinking about this Epstein "torture" email.
If you look up people who told Epstein at other times that they're "in China," there's a shortlist: Raiders board member Larry Delson, Harvard math professor Martin Nowak, international consultant Joshua Cooper Ramo, and others.

Taken aback by the dismissive & sneering attitude from FBI agents toward the cop politely asking to see the warrant.
Looked him up: He's an immigrant w/ a doctorate in philosophy. His thesis? "Force by police officers toward African Americans."
