According to the WSJ, he knew he was in the files. The Attorney General helped him hide the files. He likely has already destroyed the files that implicate him.

Now we need an investigation that makes Watergate look small.

The defense secretary is accused of dangerous incompetence by insiders. The homeland security secretary has her purse and $3000 nicked. The FBI director flies gov't air to visit an NHL game and his country-singing girlfriend.

Holy cow❗

People apparently _returned_ from El Salvador for mistaken identity etc. in Alien Enemies Act deportations.

This new development appears to show that the Trump administration's claim that they know all detainees sent to El Salvador prison were properly vetted may be dangerously false.⬇️
ACLU attorney Gelernt says there were people who were returned from El Salvador after the flights because they either weren't Venezuelan or were women and the El Salvadoran government declined to take them.

The Crypto Strategic Reserve is more than a money scam.

It's a plot to dismantle democracy and replace nation-states with "network states."

This is the disgusting person Trump wanted released to the United States despite his heinous human trafficking charges. Listen to him describe how he’d grab women by the neck.

Thanks for this great article.

For me the highlight is how little people know, listen, or think about candidates. Biden did more for workers than any president in my lifetime yet the Trump propaganda worked.

Also, we need tons of photos and first Epson stories of immigrants being mistreated
The small city of Reading in central Pennsylvania is around 70 percent Latino.

In 2024, it shifted toward Trump by a staggering net 16 points.

I spent some time trying to figure out why that happened. The result is this piece. I hope you'll check it out:
