I’m re-upping this, even though I know it won’t matter at all, but I want maybe a few extra people to know that the White House liaison to DHS—who is already known to have expressed Nazi tendencies—linked yesterday to a well-known white nationalist’s web site.

Paul Ingrassia, White House liaison to DHS and failed Special Counsel nominee, links to a defense of himself written by white nationalist Greg Johnson at Johnson’s Counter-Currents site.

Members of the California National Guard have arrived in Los Angeles — against the wishes of Gov. Gavin Newsom and L.A. Mayor Karen Bass, who are calling the Trump move inflammatory and unnecessary.

Wow. Avelo airlines has covered up their logo to hide the fact that they're helping with mass deportation. Avelo's customer service number is (346) 616-9500. Feel free to give them a call and tell them how you feel about them.

Genuinely glad Russell Vought’s daughter got the NIH-backed medicine she needed. ❤️‍🩹 Now he’s trying to defund the very programs that made it possible—for everyone else. 🙃💉 Life-saving science for me, austerity for thee. Cool plan, Volde-Vought.

In total, there are 27 exclamation points in the decision, only one of which comes in a quote from Trump. Suffice to say, Judge Leon does not like what President Trump tried to do with the executive order and is not hesitant to make his strong opinions on the matter clear. The entire EO is blocked.

Andry José Hernández Romero, I remember you, even if I do not know how to articulate my horror, rage, & sorrow at your treatment by my government. No one has heard from you in 72 days. As vigil, I’m posting a photo (& today a video) of you every day until you are returned from El Salvador.

Remember the 2nd case like Abrego Garcia, involving the gay man deported to Mexico n/w/s having been terrorized and held for ransom there? Judge Murphy orders the US to bring him back. not facilitate, not effectuate, bring him back.

Buy banned books from small bookstores and put them in the little libraries in your neighborhood. Flood MAGA tiplines with bullshit tips. Show up at rallies like the No Kings events on June 14th. Take a walk around your neighborhood and register your neighbors to vote. 4/

“Look, here's burial sites all over the place. These are all white farmers that are being buried,” Donald Trump said during today’s White House meeting with South Africa’s president. The image he was holding up, however, is of the Democratic Republic of Congo. www.barrons.com/news/trump-d...

Casar: What we discovered last night, which is really breaking news, is that they’re not just robbing Medicaid—it turns out they’re also planning to rob Medicare of nearly half a billion dollars if they pass this bill.

Update: Despite widespread reports of Musk “stepping back” from politics, he is still standing near enough by that the President runs US foreign policy in the insane way Musk wants it run and waves at him while doing so.

Just FYI because evidently Fox or OAN or whatever is pushing the lie that America accepted the Statue of Liberty and that’s equivalent to the plane. Congress VOTED to approve receiving the statue. So congress should vote on the jet

The Supreme Court opened the way to this and the rest of the massive corruption by dismissing 2 emoluments cases against Trump in 2021. One more reason of many that this court will live in infamy. www.brennancenter.org/our-work/ana...

Seems pretty clear that a $400 million “air palace” from a foreign emir qualifies. The corruption is brazen.

NEW: Minnesota’s graduation rate just reached the highest level on record. Two years ago, we made the single-largest investment in public schools in state history.   Today, we’re seeing the results.
