Those who aren't attorneys and haven't worked in public service will have a general sense of how historically unprecedented and unprofessional this behavior is but those who *are* attorneys and *have* worked in public service and taken an Oath to the Constitution are watching this with abject horror
holy shit -- Bondi's new tactic is refusing to answer Democratic questions, then using time during the next Republican questioner to smear the previous Democratic member and accuse them of being complicit in violence crimes

🚨ALARM: Republicans are closer to ramming the SAVE ACT through, the Project 2025 voter-ID bill that requires voter’s current names to MATCH their birth certificates.

79% of married women take a spouse’s name. This could disenfranchise MILLIONS of women.

An Irishman living in the U.S. for over 20 years who has been detained by ICE since last September describes the experience as “torture.”

“I don’t know how much more I can take,” Seamus Culleton said, calling for Prime Minister Micheál Martin to raise his case with Trump during his upcoming visit.

To understand the GOP’s 2026 strategy, look at Steve Bannon. As Marc Elias writes, Bannon remains the most influential voice in the MAGA movement.

If Democrats win the majority, Trump’s authoritarian plan will be foiled — and he knows that.

Core Civic makes BILLIONS of dollars off the taxpayer whisking little kids into their concentration camp. Ethnic cleansing is big biz in the US. Fascism is lucrative.

How do we target the for-profit companies who make this state violence and human rights atrocity possible?

Just unspeakably cruel
Metry and her husband of 4 years go to DHS to get their I-130 in motion. "Good news" a DHS employee told them, the form to start her naturalization was approved.

DHS employee asks the husband to follow him through a secure door. When it locks behind him, ICE detains his wife to deport her.
EXCLUSIVE: Terez Metry was 13 when her family fled to Tennessee from Egypt in 2011. Then, they left her behind. She only recently discovered she had an order of removal from 2011. But she was following the legal path to citizenship. On Monday, at a routine DHS meeting, Metry was detained.

We found that Jeff Bezos paid *zero* taxes in 2007 and 2011.

In fact, he reported making so little in 2011 that he even claimed and received a $4,000 tax credit for his children.

Horrifying and unnerving. DHS sent an administrative subpoena to Google for this retiree's records and even sent armed agents out to his house for the "offense" of writing the following completely anodyne email to a federal prosecutor using an email address he found via Google.

Tear gas is banned in international warfare, yet classified as a “riot control agent” that law enforcement can use for crowd control.

“It just doesn’t work well, and it hits the weakest people the most, and causes the most complications in them,” an anesthesiology professor at Duke University said.
Tear Gas Is Way More Dangerous Than Police Let On
In the middle of a respiratory pandemic, law enforcement agencies have used tear gas in especially dangerous ways. The chemical agent also seeps into homes, contaminates food, furniture, skin and surf...

A good thing happened today: Haitians in Springfield, Ohio and elsewhere are (for now) safe from the planned ethnic cleansing operation. This happened because people came together — organizers, reporters, and those who care — and made it happen. Let’s take the win and continue the work.

Since the Trump administration was eager to prosecute journalists who covered an ICE protest in a church, the administration will surely be rushing to prosecute the ICE agents who invaded this Methodist church and disrupted a church event.
