Such classic gaslighting it's an instructive moment. The question is not whether generic is better or worse, it's that a list with more expensive brand names is not the same as a list with cheaper generics. Perverting that truth into an attack on those calling it out is Manipulation 101.
Hassett: "On one of the Sunday shows, the anchor criticized the fact Walmart said the Thanksgiving dinner is cheaper by about $10. Then he said, 'Oh yeah, but they substituted generic stuff,' as if having a generic something is a crime for ordinary folks! It shows how out of touch these people are."

"insofar as the Court has inquired into the identities of the decisionmaking officials for purposes of making a potential criminal referral, the actions were taken by DHS (through Secretary Noem) after being formally advised about compliance with this Court’s order" by both DHS and DOJ counsel.
![Accordingly, the Government maintains that its actions did not violate the Court’s
order—certainly not with the clarity required for criminal contempt—and no further proceedings
are warranted or appropriate. Indeed, the mere fact that Judge Katsas agreed with Defendants’
interpretation of the TRO means that the order could not have been so “clear and decisive” that it
left “no doubt about what it require[d] to be done,” as criminal contempt requires. United States
v. Joyce, 498 F.2d 592, 596 (7th Cir. 1974); see also Ford v. Kammerer, 450 F.2d 279, 280 (3d Cir.
1971) (“long-standing, salutary rule in contempt cases is that ambiguities and omissions in orders
redound to the benefit of the person charged with contempt”); United States ex rel. Yelverton v.
Fed. Ins. Co., 831 F.3d 585, 587 (D.C. Cir. 2016) (same).
10. Nevertheless, insofar as the Court has inquired into the identities of the decisionmaking officials for purposes of making a potential criminal referral, the actions were taken by
DHS (through Secretary Noem) after being formally advised about compliance with this Court’s
order both by DOJ leadership and the Acting General Counsel of DHS.](https://cdn.bsky.app/img/feed_thumbnail/plain/did:plc:qqdqgzpqwyho4cxzso62m54q/bafkreieabw7jaju4xufouskydmfdiwrac2pwmdl6rc24ecurqwvnxsgngi@jpeg)

The first official confirmation that Noem herself made the decision not to turn the planes around. A couple hundred men were tortured as a result — and soon after, the Supreme Court confirmed that the Trump admin’s Alien Enemies Act process was a total violation of due process.
BREAKING:
“After receiving that legal advice, Secretary Noem directed that the AEA detainees who had been removed from the United States before the Court’s order could be transferred to the custody of El Salvador. “

"He's gonna sell Ukraine to Russia" has a dubious meaning considering that last peace proposal.
Q: Have you heard this audio that Bloomberg has of Witkoff coaching the Russians on how to appeal to you?
TRUMP: That's a standard thing. He's gotta sell this to Ukraine, he's gonna sell Ukraine to Russia. That's what a dealmaker does. I haven't heard it but I heard it was standard negotiation.

approved despite over 600 speakers signing up to speak to the budget, with all but a tiny number strongly opposed, and following a public engagement survey that found the majority of respondents supported a property tax increase to avoid cuts.
Vancouver's 2026 draft budget has PASSED.
Approved on a 7-4 vote on party lines, with ABC in favour and councillors Fry/Bligh/Orr/Maloney opposed.
Property tax freeze, $50 million more for VPD, and cuts to Arts, Culture, Planning and Sustainability departments, among others.
Full story to come.

This is called “chain refoulment” and it’s illegal under both U.S. and international law. And the State Department and ICE know very well what Ghana is doing and simply don’t care.
ICE deported a woman who owned a home in the US for 30 years. A judge banned ICE from deporting her to Sierra Leone where she had been tortured, so it deported her to Ghana, which kidnapped her and sent her back Sierra Leone anyway. ICE is part of this illegal conspiracy.
