Grateful that Brad Lander is using his experience to highlight the biggest outrage; that ICE is re-arresting people who have been 100% compliant with ICE and the courts, with the goal of unlawfully stripping them of a court hearing to juice Stephen Miller's deportation numbers.
"I'm happy to report I'm just fine. I lost a button. But I'm gonna sleep in my bed tonight, safe, with my family... At that elevator, I was separated from someone named Edgardo... Edgardo is in ICE detention and he's not going to sleep in his bed tonight."

What a weird way to say:
Under Biden… ‘23, ‘24 real GDP growth exceeded expectations
Inflation was tamed without a recession
A record 16.6 million jobs created
A record 21 million new business applications
Lowest avg unemployment of any admin in > 50 years…
But, you be you, Mike…

Mike Johnson: "We're transitioning from Bidenomics and the terrible economy that was delivered by the last administration. It takes a while to turn that ship around."

If numerous members of a government are invested in a project of national failure then this and other dangers are accelerated
The politicization and weaponization of both the CIA and the FBI at the same time sets the country up for another intelligence failure on the scale of Pearl Harbor or 9/11. A joint essay by me and @tim-weiner.bsky.social: www.doomsdayscenario.co/p/patel-ratc...

I’m going to put my rich guy hat on and say I hope that Mexico and Canada issue equal, retaliatory tariffs and stick to them for an extended period.
I apologize to all the people it will cost money and the businesses it will hurt.
But it’s the only way for tariffs to be seen for what they are

Incredibly moving Justin Trudeau remarks:
"We have fought and died alongside you....During your darkest hours...we were always there. Standing with you, grieving with you, the American people....Canadians are a little perplexed as to why our closest friends and neighbors are choosing to target us."

Warren: "He can stand there, smile at you and say, 'anybody can vaccinate their kids who wants to,' but he literally could bankrupt the vaccines manufacturers with the power he will have. And since he's got a financial incentive to do that, we cannot trust him in that job."

Better rhetoric than 99 percent of Democratic elected officials, run this man for something
Just spoke with former Officer Mike Fanone about the Biden pardon that covers him and other officers who testified before the Jan. 6 committee.
“This is a different kind of American exceptionalism. It’s exceptionally fucked up.”

This is what has me so crazy about Kash Patel. Everyone has jumped right to the merits of Patel and no one has even paused to say, “Presidents don’t get to fire the FBI director without paying a huge political price.”
There seems to be a vast under-appreciation for the lines we’ve crossed and the world we’re in.
Trump’s win has basically put us in a post-rules world.
People in power don’t feel constrained by rules and any remaining checks don’t feel empowered to be checks.
This reality has not set in yet.
