This is incredibly dangerous.
Trump is now calling the New York Times a national security threat and says they “must be dealt with and stopped.”

DOJ briefly uploaded this letter from Jeff Epstein to serial child molester Larry Nassar:

"Our president shares our love of young, nubile girls. When a young beauty walked by he loved to 'grab snatch,' whereas we ended up snatching grub in the mess halls of the system."

Today, I co-led a coalition of attorneys general opposing proposed rollbacks that would weaken protections under the Endangered Species Act.

These changes would put endangered wildlife and critical habitats at greater risk.

I’m sure this will be popular. 5 million people are in default right now. The Dept of Ed estimates as many as 10 million by end of next year because of job market.

A free press cannot function if the government is able to exercise veto power over critical reporting simply by refusing to engage.

The public has the right to question how CBS will ensure the independence and integrity of its journalism going forward.

The CBS 60 Minutes Doc confirms what we knew: The U.S. is currently using our tax dollars to imprison brown people with no criminal record in torture camps overseas.

Unbelievable

Pam Bondi did it again

Another batch of the Epstein files was released-in which Trump was featured prominently-but the Department of Justice promptly took them down a few hours later

Sure looks like Ro Khanna and Thomas Massie have enough evidence to hold her in contempt

ICE agents illegally break into a woman's bathroom in a NY nutrition bar manufacturing plant. "Pull up your pants," says a male agent. The agents only had a warrant to review employer documents. They didn't have a warrant to search for, detain, or arrest anyone there.

Clean energy is going to be kind of like the ACA and Social Security in that once we have it easily available we're never going to want to give it up. It's cheap, abundant, and non-toxic. Trump's Big Oil buddies are counting on him keeping it off the grid and unavailable for as long as possible.
Mockler: Electricity prices are skyrocketing right now. This does not help electricity prices, does not help the American people. It's another example of Trump following his weird vengeance ambitions rather than actually focusing on affordability.

It’s now “too woke” to monitor & if necessary, arrest USA’s Homegrown, heavily armedx, violent, White Male Supremacists. I guess stopping violence against persecuted women & kids & innocent people of color just isn’t cool anymore; not in the “look at my Nazi tattoos!” social circles, anyway.

With the 60 minutes leak, the many recent Epstein releases, etc., I think we are seeing the future of government accountability under authoritarianism:

Leaks, hacks, data dumps, releases of big document caches.

Journalists and the public will have to learn how to digest this stuff. 🧵

Kash Patel got brand-new armored BMWs on his request.

The big story floating around is that FBI personnel are leaking these stories to take him down. But I’ve got other questions:

📌BMW? Why aren’t they buying American?

📌Does Patel have an unlimited expense account funded by our dime?

The story is insane. The acting head of cyber security, a Noem crony, repeatedly demanded to see highly classified information he didn’t need access to, and when staff set up a lie detector test as a condition to grant him access, he failed it. So DHS suspended the staffers.

If you needed more evidence that Bari Weiss isn't the sharpest crayon in the box, the fact that she (a) personally spiked the story (b) in a way that left her fingerprints all over the decision (c) at the last possible minute, thus guaranteeing maximal exposure and blowback.
