The government denied these detainees access to counsel and tried to whisk them out-of-state as quickly as possible to make it more difficult for their lawyers to assist them. As this court explains, ICE effectively suspended the Fifth Amendment in Minneapolis. democracyforward.org/wp-content/u...

The Trump family company wants to trademark the use of the president’s name on any airports but says it doesn’t plan on charging a fee — at least for a proposed renaming of one near his Florida home.

ICYMI: I asked AG Bondi if she would apologize to the Epstein survivors for the harm her DOJ has done to them. She refused — she wouldn’t even look at them.

I will never stop demanding accountability and justice for these incredibly brave survivors.

This is who Trump is also!
“As the airplane took off, Epstein started touching me forcibly in between my legs, and I freaked out. I realized, this is not a modeling opportunity, I've been kidnapped. They whisked me away to the island. I was stuck there. They never arranged any modeling opportunities, I was completely conned."

This is a bombshell: One of Epstein's victims accused Trump of sexually and violently assaulting her when she was "13 to 15" and the FBI deemed her credible enough to warrant an interview.

Trump was credibly accused of sexual assault in the Epstein files. It's unclear what became of the DOJ's investigation.

We must call this what it is. Disgusting bigotry.

Special for my friends in the media!

Before you use numbers from a new DHS “economic impact analysis” in reporting on a new Trump prison camp, please consider that these reports appear to be (to use a technical term) horseshit.

Helpful explanation here:

Noem oversaw a tenfold increase in the use of the Coast Guard's aircraft for immigrant deportations. “It puts so much stress on the wing,” the Coast Guard official said, referring to the branch’s aviation units. www.nbcnews.com/politics/imm...
Noem's use of Coast Guard resources strains her relationship with the military branch, sources say
Some early decisions by the homeland security secretary, including to divert Coast Guard resources from a search and rescue mission to the deportation of immigrants, set the tone early.

How is that MF Lewandowski not in jail for that?!?!
This flew under the radar, but it shouldn’t have.

When senator Alex Padilla was tackled by DHS, Kristi Noem’s side piece, Corey Lewandowski, was orchestrating the situation in the hall.

Probably about 10 seconds after the SAVE act passes, if it does.

I thought we were past the blatant disenfranchisement of women voters thing, though I guess I should have seen it coming after reproductive rights.

Can someone remind me who is the majority party? WaPo seems to need help here.

I thought it was the GOP, who despite what the WaPo wants you to think, actually have some agency. Lots, really, tho you’d never get that idea from the media.
Note the framing here:

It’s “Democrats have refused to fund” DHS and not “Republicans refused to prohibit face masks” or “the two parties could not agree on how to reform the agency.”
