Pritzker on Trump sending troops into cities: "He has other aims other than fighting crime... he would like to stop the elections in 2026 or frankly take control of those elections. He'll just claim there's some problem with an election and then he's got troops on the ground that can take control."

📌Today alone, Republicans confirmed a complete slime ball and crook, Emil Bove, to a lifetime appointment on the court, opened the door to corporate pollution of our air and water, and worked tirelessly to shield pedophiles.
We are being governed by completely hideous people.

The confirmation of Emil Bove to the 3rd Circuit is a direct assault on the integrity of our justice system.
A former Trump lawyer, Bove ordered a 15-year DOJ veteran to lie to a federal judge — then helped fire him for refusing.
Now he’s a judge. Corruption in action.

Relatives of an unarmed man who died as he was being detained by police last year say they recently viewed body-camera footage of the incident that showed Alabama officers kneeling on the man’s neck while he repeated “I can’t breathe.”

The man's arrest is the latest case of federal authorities detaining immigrants with legal status during immigration check-ins. Lawmakers call the detainment of those who helped U.S. troops at war a betrayal. [via @wbur.org]

The very wealthy who are actually committed to democracy - eg Mackenzie Scott, George Soros, Melinda French Gates, Mark Cuban, etc - could do a great service by funding, or upping their funding, to media supporting democracy and rule of law.
As someone who has run an actual non-ridiculous independent media operation for over two decades which has lost multiple sponsors due to our public "we're against fascism" stance... to hear that Weiss might get $200 million for basically justifying and whitewashing fascism... is... frustrating.
FT Exclusive: Weiss has met with David Ellison, the incoming owner of CBS News, over a potential deal to sell her three-year-old media company, according to several people familiar with the matter. https://on.ft.com/4eZ6WbM
