Trump reportedly told Sen Schumer he’d release federal funds if Penn Station and Dulles airport were named after him. This is a crime. NY, VA? www.nbcnews.com/politics/don...
Trump asked for Dulles Airport, Penn Station to be named after him in exchange for Gateway money to be released
Trump has named several landmarks and initiatives after himself since returning to office.

I realized that a lot of the guys who have been found in the Epstein files are probably really struggling because the guy they would have gone to for advice about being discovered in the Epstein files was JEFFREY EPSTEIN
Over the past two weeks I've begun to realize that rich people only started funding chatbots once they could no longer email Jeffrey Epstein

Over 73,000 people are currently in ICE custody, the most ever...

But that's not the only shocking number:

- There has been a 2,450% increase in the number of people with no criminal record being held in ICE detention on any given day.

the Epstein files are really devastating because they remind me of how many girls and women miss out on professional opportunities, mentorship and careers because of how many powerful, rich and influential men only view girls and women — and interactions with them — through the lens of sex

The government is murdering people in the streets and Kamala’s plan to meet the moment is a weird out of touch media brand that makes tired jokes on social media.
"...in partnership with the progressive nonprofit organization People For the American Way. According to their press release, “Harris will be the Chair Emerita of Headquarters, and many of the staff behind KamalaHQ will be reuniting.”"

Of course they did

And honestly why wouldn't they? John Roberts already gave Trump total immunity from prosecution, and everyone knows impeachment is a dead letter

SCOTUS is going to agree with them to save face. Because if SCOTUS says "you must execute the laws," Trump just says "no"
The US Government just argued to the US Supreme court that the US President does NOT have to faithfully execute all laws. Holy fucking shit - hear it for yourself. Justice Neil Gorsuch was floored too - a rarity

🚨HOLY CRAP. The Trump admin just took a SLEDGEHAMMER to due process, largely eliminating the Board of Immigration Appeals process and MANDATING DISMISSAL of ALL appeals (which cost $1,000 thanks to OBBBA) filed after tomorrow unless a majority of the BIA votes to hear the case.

The culture around sexualizing teenage girls has thankfully shifted in recent decades, but there was never a time in my life when traveling to a rich guy's secluded island with an expectation he would supply a 16 year old girl to have sex with you was not obviously horrific

The top federal prosecutor in Minnesota says his short-staffed office has been abandoning "pressing and important priorities" to manage the flood of immigration cases.

Daniel Rosen says his office is buckling under the crushing weight of emergency lawsuits filed by immigrants detained by ICE.

i hate how predictable and avoidable this shit is and yet we don't avoid it at all, because some people see the opportunity to run little authoritarian fascist domains on their phones and their eyes roll back.
Hey, remember that time I said that pointing out that AI is giving bad data to ICE is missing the point because ICE doesn't actually care if the data is good? Check out how right I am.
NEW: Records reviewed by WIRED show DHS’s facial recognition app (Mobile Fortify) isn’t designed to actually "verify" identity—despite DHS claims and its agents relying on its matches to support probable cause in the field.

Amazing. If a professional wrestling crowd is chanting "fuck ICE," it suggests to me that large swaths of the culture are not just upset over ICE tactics, they're coalescing against mass deportations as a broader ideological project.

it’s also likely to cause a shit ton of intra-DHS strain because the ICE goons will keep getting paid while, for example, TSA personnel will not
there's certainly plenty to criticize in the Dems' asks but this is why splitting off the DHS funding from everything else was such a big win - there's going to be far less pressure on Dems to end a DHS-only shutdown than there was when "food stamps run out" was on the table
Senate Majority Leader John Thune said Thursday that demands made by Democrats for new restrictions on federal immigration officers are “unrealistic” and warned that the Department of Homeland Security will shut down next week if they do not work with Republicans and the White House.

Trump has an amazing ability, at least when he is out of power, to get people to project onto him whatever favorable policy views they want
This pro-Trump nostalgia absolutely was confirmed over and over again by the Dems' own internal polling, in a truly horrifying way:

Good. "But DHS isn't just ICE, it's also..." nope, wrong. DHS no longer serves any useful functions, the whole thing has been reassigned to repression. FEMA isn't even paying out to states. All DHS does is shooting, teargassing, facial recognition, and administrative warrants. Shut it down.

Also, Epstein emailed this story to 29 people. Most of the recipients' names are shown, but 6 are redacted.

The recipient names need to be shown to Congress. If Dem members tell me "those are victims," that's good enough for me.

But I bet they're not.
