On Thanksgiving, the immigrant children held at the Dilley detention center gathered in the gym for what they thought was a holiday feast.
The kids salivated over a spread of turkey, sandwiches, pastries and pies, a family told me.
But the food wasn’t for detainees — it was for the staff.

There needs to be a class action suit against RFK, Jr., NIH, and Donald Trump for endangering the lives of Americans with their kooky, unscientific negligence.

Sarah Longwell: "This is the Epstein administration because there are two types of people in it — there are people who are in the Epstein files and there are people who are covering up the Epstein file."

If I wasn't ashamed of the country before....
If there is one key take away from Bondi's testimony it should be this.
The DOJ will not prosecute a single conspirator in the Epstein files.
Not from lack of evidence, testimony, or witnesses; but because that is how she has been directed to handle it by the President of the United States.

Rep Ro Khanna today said he saw instructions given by Trump to the FBI directing that they redact references to interactions with him in the testimony of Epstein victims. This would appear to be one of the passages that was supposed to have been redacted.

It's jarring to see how much money is going to ICE instead of education, healthcare, public transportation, international aid, green energy infrastructure, and the arts, but I guess that's the point.

People should be getting fed up with the rot of this Republican party.. Even without the Epstein issue.

They missed a spot in their redactions.
I don't recognize a lot of these names, but one in particular does jump out at me.

Rep. Walkinshaw leaving today’s ICE hearing: “All of this comes from Stephen Miller’s sick, twisted, deranged Great Replacement Theory.” He says when Dems have the majority they will subpoena Miller to testify: “If he doesn’t he will end up in prison for contempt.” @pabloreports.bsky.social

In an email to Michael Wolff while Wolff was writing an unflattering exposé on the Trump administration, Jeffrey Epstein states that people who had dinner with Trump were concerned about his dementia. He was wearing too much makeup and didn’t recognize old friends.
THIS WAS ALMOST TEN YEARS AGO.

The racist president's racist comms team says his racist social media post was posted by a racist staffer hired by his racist regime, so everyone should just forget about the racism.
Trump has now deleted the post, with the White House now claiming, "A White House staffer erroneously made the post. It has been taken down."
Karoline Leavitt a few hours ago:
"Please stop the fake outrage and report on something today that actually matters to the American public.”
