NEW: The Trump-Vance White House has falsely accused an ally of Pope Leo — Sr. Norma Pimentel — of illegal activity tied to migrant aid, and cut off all federal funding to Catholic Charities in Texas.
Church leaders say it’s a targeted, political reprisal against Pope Leo and the Catholic Church.

Trump-Vance White House Targets Beloved Nun in Texas, Retaliates Against Catholic Charities

real police state stuff
WOW. @haleaziz.bsky.social with a new scoop: ICE now gets a running list of every person who is going to be taking a domestic flight inside the United States from the TSA and runs it through their database looking for targets. This explains the Babson College student's arrest.

I do agree with this point from Greg, something I wrote about over the spring — www.lawdork.com/p/trump-told... — and that has become all the more clear since. It should be noted, however, that aspects of this plan — particularly as to third-country removal — have largely been successful
There's ample evidence that Trump/Miller saw Abrego Garcia as a test for the broader MAGA project. Miller hopes to carve out power for Trump to remove people with zero legal constraints. JD Vance's dishonesty has been reprehensible. It all now looks even worse. 4/

this fact is the definitive judgment on kirk's life
ultimately, no one even grieved Charlie Kirk. he was just another thing for the worst people on earth to get outraged over. and when the outrage of real events wasn't enough, they invented new ones.
not even his wife saw his death as anything other than an opportunity.

Sorry, but working class solidarity is not compatible with, nor should it be tolerant of, screaming racial slurs
“Those of us on the left should be fighting to improve protections for workers of all races, and thereby for the betterment of people’s material conditions regardless of their views,” Arash Azizi argues:
Why the Cinnabon Story Doesn’t Make Me Happy
The left should be promoting working-class solidarity, not delighting in seeing workers summarily dismissed.

The reason it’s not the biggest story is because there are 8 other scandals equally corrupt going on consecutively. This, illegally bombing boats, Epstein, tariffs sinking the economy, having to take dementia tests regularly, rewriting national policy to side with Russia. Flooding the zone
