Mayor Daniel Lurie revamped S.F.’s street crisis teams. Is it working?
The mayor overhauled the city's street outreach teams by consolidating their ranks, focusing on specific neighborhoods and putting them under the oversight of one leader. Here’s how it’s going.

The Oregon National Guard general says if they were to be deployed, they would be instructed under his leadership to protect the protesters and not ICE

Pay attention.

"Plenary authority is legal power that is full, complete, and unrestricted in a specific area. When used in reference to government officials, the term "plenary power" is more common."

My Magic 8 Ball says, "All signs point to buckle the f*%k up."

Stephen Miller said the quiet part out loud. Trump has “plenary authority,” then suddenly went silent. Their plan wasn’t to be public yet. Clearly, someone hit the panic button in his earpiece.

It gets weirder: CNN uploaded the interview with the “plenary authority” comment edited out.

The government is shut down because Trump and the Republicans are hellbent on taking health care away from you.

And they won’t even come to the table to talk to us about it.

This is not about politics. It's about people.

Let’s break it down:

I will not back down.

Trump is now calling for the arrest of elected representatives checking his power.

What else is left on the path to full-blown authoritarianism?

SCHIFF: If a video exists of Homan taking $50k in bribe money from the FBI, will you support a request to provide it to the committee?

BONDI: You can talk to Director Patel about that

SCHIFF: I'm talking to you about it

BONDI: Will you apologize to Donald Trump?

"This is supposed to be an oversight hearing" -- Schiff helpfully ticks through all of the incriminating questions -- and there are many of them -- that Bondi refused to answer during today's hearing

🚨THIS IS A BIG DEAL. Chicago journalists are suing the Trump administration for using excessive force against reporters & protestors in violation of the 1A.
The press here is doing astounding work documenting how ICE is out of control. The violence they face in doing so is obscene.
The protests at the Broadview ICE facility and the federal government’s violent attempts to silence the protesters became a story of great interest to the local Chicago media and was also covered in the national press. Much of the coverage described the federal officers’ abusive tactics. Defendants sought and are seeking to quash this coverage by attacking and intimidating members of the Press on the ground there. 85. Federal immigration officers at the Broadview ICE facility have repeatedly and intentionally singled out persons whom they know to be members of the Press for violence, assault, and intimidation. These assaults are not incidental or unintentional. They are undertaken by design to intimidate journalists on scene and to frustrate and suppress coverage of the federal officers’ actions toward protesters and immigration detainees

Let's get something straight. #47 is creating distractions, so we will not continue to talk about Epstein. Ice zip tying kids, arresting members of Congress and raiding apartment buildings via helicopter. #wtpBLUE #DemVoice1 #ProudBlue #VoteBlueforOurFuture
