Appointment by appointment, #Florida Gov. Ron DeSastrous has been building an army of grifters -- er, I mean loyalists -- in his makeover of the higher-ed system. The changes have outraged alumni & the communities surrounding the college campuses. jaxtrib.org/2026/01/07/w... via @jaxtrib.org
With army of loyalists, DeSantis built a conservative higher-ed empire
With an ally expected to take over at UWF early this year, and a presidential vacancy at UNF, DeSantis is poised to build on his remarkable transformation of Florida higher education.

CBS Evening News just aired a segment so embarrassing it’s hard to watch.

To please the Trump regime, they used bizarre AI-generated images (!) to "salute" Marco Rubio. It looked less like news and more like state propaganda.

This was also what Charles Manson was saying before his arrest. Almost word for word.

WITNESS: "I just can't let this narrative of self-defense go any further. That’s absolutely not what it was… ICE agents didn’t let anyone help her for 15 minutes, then medics couldn’t get through with their ambulance.”

Border Patrol agents showed up at Roosevelt High School, three miles from yesterday’s shooting. The agents went onto school property and handcuffed two staff members. They also used chemical weapons on bystanders and many sought shelter in the school library (source: MPR).

And now…

“.. In the last four months alone, immigration officers have fired on at least nine people in five states and Washington, D.C. All of the individuals targeted in those shootings were, like the woman killed on Wednesday, fired on while in their vehicles.”

Imagine thinking domestic violence isn’t “really serious”
Q: This has been reported for a while. Cory Mills was accused of beating a girlfriend in his DC apt. Are you concerned about these allegations?

JOHNSON: You have to ask Rep. Mills about that. He's been a faithful colleague. I don't know the details. Let's talk about things that are really serious

NEW: When President Trump told Texas Republicans to find him five more GOP seats in Congress this summer, they hastily redrew their map to deliver exactly what he wanted.

Democracy Docket took a close look at how the new map is designed to further dilute the strength of minority voters👇

Stephen Miller in April: “He was not mistakenly sent to El Salvador…A DOJ lawyer who has since been relieved of duty—a saboteur, a Democrat—put into a filing, incorrectly, that this was a mistaken removal. It was not.”

DOJ, yesterday: Abrego’s removal to El Salvador was a “one-off mistake.”

Trump’s ICE isn’t targeting violent criminals.

🔹 65% no criminal record
🔹 25% nonviolent offenses
🔹 Just 10% convicted of violent crimes

It’s a campaign of fear, ripping workers, street vendors, and moms away from families while claiming it’s about public safety. A lie. And cruelty by design.

The SCOTUS ruling protecting affordable access to PrEP was a win -- for now!

Trump's Big FuckedUp Bill removes ACA coverage mandates for PrEP and includes other attacks on #LGBTQ healthcare via Medicaid cuts -- some of which have been challenged this week by the Senate Parliamentarian

Damn‼️ Federal agents blew a door off for this?

Federal agents blasted their way into an LA home where Jenny Ramirez lives with her boyfriend and two kids.

She heard the blast while checking on her 6-year-old, with her 1-year-old in her arms.

Ramirez says everyone in the home is a U.S. citizen.

ATTN FEDERAL WORKERS: It has come to my attention that several agencies are now offering WiFi for you to use with your PERSONAL devices. If I were you, I would NOT use that WiFi. I suspect it's a way for DOGE to monitor your personal communications.
