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.

Hospital coded something incorrectly & I got a surprise bill and they are still coming in ...~$10,000 or so. They don't understand why I would be stressed. The same hospital that does hunger/food insecurity vital sign surveys at appts. doesn't grasp that this kind of bill = existential threat?

NEWS: The criminal cases against James Comey and Letitia James are gone. A federal judge ruled that the appointment of Lindsey Halligan as the lead prosecutor was illegal.

DOJ could try again, but there are other headwinds.

Mike Johnson is big mad that we forced through a petition and forced a vote on releasing the Epstein files.

So let’s do it again. This time to restore the ACA credits he stole from us:

It remains hilarious to me that Ryan Lizza is seemingly oblivious to the fact that he, too, was just a creepy older man taking advantage of Olivia Nuzzi

This is a wonderful time to support journalists who do the work, don’t fuck sources, and actually have moral clarity.
i promise i don’t mean to high horse this but if you’re thinking about giving lizza ten bucks there are a lot of good independent journalists whose work you could subscribe to for a month instead
