Has anyone else noticed that the EPSTEIN FILES are still being held back. Less than 1% have been released. Another blatant refusal to accept oversight from our pitifully weak congress. 🗽

Steve Kerr on the murder of Renee Good:

"It's shameful that the government can come out and lie about what happened when there's video and witnesses who have all come out and disputed what the government is saying."

Bit of a parable here.
The federal government Friday agreed to pay $125,000 after a judge found a U.S. Customs and Border Protection agent liable for civil assault for pointing a gun at a hotel maintenance man who came to the agent’s room to unclog a toilet.

We have to be clear about what the Trump Administration is doing: They are taking basic American virtues and freedoms — the ability to speak truth to power and freely — and turning them into crimes. We must see through this.

As someone who went to an Episcopalian high school, I can’t express how crazy you have to act to get them to start with this sort of rhetoric
“I have asked the clergy of the diocese to make sure their affairs are in order and they have written their wills.,not the time for statements. It is time to put our bodies between the powers of this world and the most vulnerable”. Rob Hirschfeld, Bishop of the Episcopal Diocese of New Hampshire

so between "if you work for the feds on immigration, seek counsel for the sake of your immortal soul" from the bishop of dallas and now "clergy, update your wills then hit the streets" from the bishop of new hampshire, I feel that a shift has begun in 2026 in the rhetoric from episcopal leadership

Gifford: This ridiculous rhetoric by the president—it’s going to impact every single American because it makes them lose faith in us.

That makes them less likely to travel here, buy American products, or invest here. This broken trust—the work of diplomacy—is very hard to build back.

I can't believe I'm posting this video - but we actually have to have a conversation about the real world implications of America going to war over Greenland.

Let me walk you through it. It doesn't turn out well for us.

Another post of mine where I continue to argue that this is the biggest political issue that few are talking about nearly enough. We know Republicans are in the tank for the tech oligarchs on this, and this is an issue that infuriates many voters in key areas.

The factual grounds on which Republicans are clamoring to impeach Chief Judge Boasberg have been eviscerated in (rare) letters by the Administrative Office of the U.S. Courts.

Today's bonus "One First" explains how—with a healthy dose of Hannah Arendt mixed in:

Senator Cruz's efforts to impeach two federal judges reached a crescendo on Wednesday—even though the Administrative Office of the U.S. Courts (the "AO") has poured cold water on one set of charges.

When an ICE agent fired the tear gas canister, it hit 55-year-old nurse Vincent Hawkins in the face, shattering his glasses and concussing him.

As he was rushed to the emergency room, he wondered if he'd ever see through his left eye again.
