The only two things I am sure about in life: 1) Life is a team sport, so be a good team player so you can play on a good team. 2) Life is weird, and then it gets weirder.

🚨 BREAKING: A federal judge ruled that ICE violated a consent decree by arresting people without warrants or probable cause in Illinois and 5 other states. The court extended the decree until Feb 2, 2026. No one is above the law.

Most Russians don’t know Putin is a dictator—because he controls the news media.

Same thing is happening with legacy and mainstream news media in the U.S.

Nothing remotely resembling an insurrection is happening anywhere in the country. Any violence associated with protest has been isolated, mild, and, in nearly every case, instigated by federal law enforcement. If we let Trump get away with calling dissent an insurrection, our republic is over.

Republicans continue to postpone the swearing-in of Adelita Grijalva, the newest Democrat elected to Congress, for a ninth day.

Her day one promise is to be the tie-breaking vote to release the Epstein files.

Apart from helping Comey's selective prosecution defense, this also means the president of the United States uses direct messages on Truth Social to communicate with cabinet officials.

I didn't know that, but we can be sure intelligence agencies all over the planet already did.

This is delusional. You can't support a hospital on only an ER - they're not the profit center of a hospital! ERs take enormous charity care losses due to EMTALA and have to be cross-subsidized by more profitable service areas.

Q: Have you given any more thought to possibly suspending habeas corpus?

Q: Habeas corpus

It's unacceptable to teach kids about racism.

“And so the work that I do is trying to come up with creative policy ideas to stop that, to turn back the tide, to figure out ways that conservatives can protect these institutions or build new institutions.”

To understand the Trump administration’s vision for American education, @megomatz.bsky.social and I studied dozens of hours of political appointees’ speeches and podcasts and essays. What emerged is a desire to dismantle the nation’s system of public schools.

Under Trump, the Department of Education has been bringing in activists hostile to public schools. It could mean a new era of private and religious schools boosted by tax dollars — and the end of publ...

Gallego: You don't want her to be on the Epstein discharge.
