Correct. Now is the time to be very clear on the fact that you don't give a fucking inch to fascists. Not on anything. Not ever. Everything they are doing is per se illegitimate. The very minimum you demand is an immediate, across-the-board return to regular democratic order and norms. Nothing less.
There is no way Senate Dems should vote for DHS funding while Republicans are threatening to nationalize elections and Trump is threatening to do it by executive order. ICE reforms are no longer enough. Their authoritarianism must be fought with every legislative lever available.

Normally, I think the ‘I am not suicidal’ posts are performative nonsense. With Massie, though, he’s repeatedly kicking the hornet’s nest of what appears to be the largest (and wealthiest) pedo ring on the planet. Probably wise on his part.

Jack Smith was sent a copy of Volume II to prepare for his testimony on the Hill, though he told Congress he didn't open it. So I think he has a copy, unless it was some kind of temporary access to a DOJ system like the DOJ Epstein Files computer terminals.

There is no reforming this. There is only abolition, and then trials.
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.

Voting rights groups sue to block Ohio law that purges voters without warning
At stake, the plaintiffs argue, is nothing less than the fundamental right to vote.

The filing cites this op-ed, which I had not previously seen, from 2 former AUSAs (they cite an earlier one criticizing the investigation of Walz and Frey).

Holy shit.

Abbe Lowell's argument that DOJ is not entitled to presumption of regularity in Don Lemon case consists of:

1) A page on irregularity in this case.
2) A page on irregularity in MN.
3) Other adverse rulings in MN.
4) One page plus TWO PAGE footnote on similar rulings nationally.

Watching our son open his baby time capsule & found this…. He’s keeping it to read the articles…🤣

To be honest, he’s more excited by the unopened 2000 Pokemon card foil pack that was in the time capsule that he checked to see how much it was selling for on eBay…$600.

We raised some serious nerds.

The Project 2025 author is using millions of dollars in USAID money for his own security detail.

It is estimated that 762,000 people have *already died* as a result of Elon Musk and Russell Vought’s obscene murder of USAID, including more than 500,000 children.

Vought is a mass murderer.

I think the thing that enrages me the most about Musk is that he presents himself as some sci-fi nerd hero doing everything possible to save humanity by going to new planets.

If your plan for saving humanity doesn’t include the people already on earth, you’re just a racist piece of shit.
As a direct result of the obscene actions of Russell Vought and Elon Musk in destroying USAID, we can expect “at least 9.4 million additional deaths by 2030, if the current funding trend continues.

About 2.5 million of those deaths are projected to be children under the age of 5.”
