If a foreign adversary snuck into our Federal budget and cut science research and education the way we’re cutting it ourselves — strategically undermining America’s long-term health, wealth, and security — we would likely consider it an act of war.

So Qatar gifts Trump a $400M luxury jet and instead of saying hell no, his team twists the law like a balloon animal to make it fit.

The Constitution says no foreign gifts without Congress.
Trump says, “Unless it’s gold-plated.”

This isn’t diplomacy. It’s corruption wrapped in jet fuel.

🚨 Disturbing footage shows the brutal arrest of a terrified 16-year-old girl—sobbing, screaming as “ICE agents” abducted her mom without a warrant or ID. At least 4 grown men slammed her face into the pavement.
This is child abuse.
This is state terror.
Worcester police are complicit.

Your daily reminder that it is our judicial system that decides if someone is a criminal, not the criminal President or his minions in the executive branch.

It's tough to refer to someone as a criminal if you've given them no due process to determine whether they're a criminal. Like if you get arrested and get a trial and are convicted of 34 felony counts. That's due process. You can call that guy a criminal.

Q: 60 Minutes found 75% of the migrants who were sent to El Salvador do not have criminal records. That true?

BONDI: They're not Venezuelan migrants. They're illegal aliens from Venezuela who should not have been in our country

Q: So you're confirming they didn't commit a crime?

Read the ICE document for yourself that Karoline Leavitt refused to answer questions about. It says exactly what @AndrewFeinberg said; all it takes is "8 points" on a made-up rubric, and that can be just a tattoo (4 points) and displaying "logos" or "symbols" (4 points).

New in PN: John Roberts created a monster. It's about to eat him.

"After all, how can the rightwing justices expect a future president — particularly a Democratic one — to accept rulings limiting the exercise of their power from a Court that served as the judicial stooge of an aspiring dictator?"
