The Constitution guarantees your right to follow, record, protest, and notify others about the agents and what you see. These are core First Amendment rights, and DHS has clearly ordered its agents to threaten and violate those rights. cato.org/blog/dhs-pol...

Schools should do what they do best, homicide investigations, and let the FBI return to doing what it does best, providing security details for Kash Patel’s girlfriend and driving her drunk friends home.
Q: Has Kash Patel told you why it's been so difficult for the FBI to identify who the shooter is?
Trump: Really, you have to ask the school a little bit more about that. Because, you know, this was a school problem.

I didn't think it was possible for his Rob Reiner post to be the second most repulsive thing he said today. bsky.app/profile/acyn...
Trump on Brown University: You would really have to ask the school about that because this was a school problem. They had their own guards, their own police, their own everything but you would have to ask that question to the school and not to the FBI.

I just want to once again congratulate every business and media outlet who tripped over their own dicks to take right-wing outrage in uncritical good faith and ruin peoples’ careers over extremely tame internet comments about Charlie Kirk 48 hours before immediately forgetting he ever existed.

Yes its a real photo from today. He looks like a fucking idiot. Nobody will dare make fun of him though in the MSM.
Yet…Mike Dukakis was humiliated in 1988 for wearing a helmet in a tank, despite the fact he served in the U.S. Army (in Korea), unlike Cadet Bone Spurs. Amazing.

this is a general warrant and it's specifically the kind of warrant the framers passed the 4th amendment to outlaw
WOW. @haleaziz.bsky.social with a new scoop: ICE now gets a running list of every person who is going to be taking a domestic flight inside the United States from the TSA and runs it through their database looking for targets. This explains the Babson College student's arrest.

all of these people were picked, in part, *because* they had no real prospect of advancing past where they're at. trump's the only person who would promote them, and everyone — both trump, and the people he promoted — all know it. it's why they're all loyal to him. that was the point.
like, rubio was never going beyond his senate station in any administration other than this one, noem was never going to the senate, hegseth has never been a politician, zeldin was a washout, loeffler's a loser, bondi was never leaving florida, gabbard was basically unemployable

Kristi Noem is one of the most blatant liars in the Trump regime, topped in brazenness only by Howard Lutnick and in volume only by Karoline Leavitt.
MAGAZINER: How many veterans have you deported?
NOEM: We haven't deported veterans
MAGAZINER: We are now joined on Zoom by a combat veteran you deported to Korea

We’re currently in a country that is experiencing a collapse in moral values. We have a lawless and cruel administration, destructive and dehumanizing AI technologies are on the rise, and predatory industries like sports betting and crypto are running rampant. We need moral leadership 1/3

The economic backbone for so many communities across America is tourism. Because of this White House it is collapsing. Anyone in the @GOP (The Enablers) should be fired in the 2026 election for letting this happen. Vote for Democrats only and put an end to the destruction of America.

Democrats would be crazy not to make this comment super-famous tomorrow when the Senate debates health care. Republicans don’t want you to be cared for as a patient when you’re sick. They think of you as a “consumer”—and tough luck if you don’t have the money for the care you need.
Roger Marshall: "We want patients to become consumers again. We want patients to see what the actual prices are. We believe that if we would add the price tags to this bill, that it would save the country a trillion dollars a year."

An insane political move. One of the recurring complaints about immigration in the U.S. is that those seeking asylum jump the line. This is line-jumping — but for rich people, not those in need.

“Your kids should get less for Christmas than kids have in a communist China.”
Trump: "You can give up certain products. You could give up pencils. Because under the China policy, every child can get 37 pencils. They only need 1 or 2. They don't need that many. You always need steel. You don't need 37 dolls for your daughter. 2 or 3 is nice. So we're doing things right."
