According to Brian Stelter, 60 Minutes is finally airing the "Inside CECOT" story that Bari Weiss shelved.

She made Sharyn Alfonsi fly to DC to get an interview with Tom Homan and Kristi Noem for the segment, but both refused.

So it'll run tonight -- with no promotion and against the NFL playoffs.

This is the sixth death in ICE custody in 18 days. This isn’t enforcement, it’s a system that cages people, outsources care, and shrugs when they die. Abolish ICE.

Every couple of weeks we get a different description of the apparently awful stench coming off our necrotic president and I think it's high time the media nail down exactly what kind of rotten meat covered in women's perfume he actually smells like.

At least Obama's hypothetical Death Panels would have decided who deserved to die based on a rubric more complicated than "did they just piss off a high school dropout armed by the state"

Breaking NYT:

The Pentagon used a secret aircraft painted to look like a civilian plane in its first boat attack, according to officials briefed on the matter.

The laws of armed conflict forbid combatants from feigning civilian status.

That is a war crime called "perfidy."

As a former Republican @schumer.senate.gov is to the right of me and has always been fucking useless.

Dont bother believing your old ass is going to have a “primary” or that your endorsement isn’t a kiss of death

Trump on why he pardoned notorious drug trafficker Juan Hernandez: “It was a Biden set up. Take any country you want. If someone sells drugs in that country, that doesn’t mean you arrest the president and put him in jail for the rest of his life.”

Upon further reflection, CBS Evening News' decision to shift away from interviewing experts and towards highlighting what regular people are saying is smart because the experts would just be screaming profanities tonight.

Perhaps now people will stop wishcasting about the US military refusing illegal orders. That's not a thing that happens. The 100% compliance rate with using civilian boats for target practice was a bit of a tell.

Reckless? You want to try illegal, unconstitutional, against international law.

For literal years I've preached to everyone who will listen that the GWOT has come home to roost. This is what I mean. The slow death of institutions started a long time ago, as people watched them lie about Iraq, Afghanistan, the counter terror campaign, the stock market & more.
This is the succinct explanation for why you see so many people support him who know better. They're simple thieves who either believe that the country is doomed anyways or believe that it is so strong that it can withstand any amount of corruption.
The sheer amount of graft and corruption is amazing. These people got themselves elected to tear the wiring out of the walls and pawn it to foreign kleptocrats while distracting Lurleen and Bubba with Guatemalan sheet rock workers and trans people in sports.

The White House's memes about imprisonment, deportation, and death by alligator are designed to radicalize and desensitize.

“What you have is this desire to get people to buy into the fun of sadism,” says Jason Stanley, an author who’s leaving the US because of “concerns over fascism.”
The official voice of the US government Is cruel, gross, and weird. What is that doing to us?

The Oversight Committee subpoenaed the DOJ for the Epstein files. They now have 2 weeks to release the files to the committee.

It’s time to find out who’s been protected, who thought they were above the law, and who’s been hiding behind power.

Dems should fight on every front.

If Texas steals 5 seats, Dem states should redistrict 30 GOP members out of their districts.

We should insist DOJ release the entire Epstein File.

Not only shouldn't we bring knives to a gun fight, if they bring pistols, we should bring machine guns.

As end-of-empire scenarios go it is so much more dignified to get your capital city sacked by the Visigoths than to have a bunch of illiterate rich people in their 70s doing it through a series of incomprehensible tantrums because their brains were defeated by their phones.

Larry Summers: "This is way beyond anything Nixon ever did ... this is the stuff of democracies giving way to authoritarianism. Firing statisticians goes with threatening the heads of newspapers, launching assaults on universities, launching assaults on law firms. This is really scary stuff."

I’ve listened to the entire TX Senate redistricting hearing so far today and out of all the people who have testified I’ve counted only 3 who have been in favor. The overwhelming majority are vehemently against unconstitutional mid-decade redistricting.
