🚨BREAKING: Democrats asked a federal judge Monday night for a restraining order and temporary injunction to halt President Donald Trump and his administration from interfering in the upcoming midterms. www.democracydocket.com/news-alerts/...
🚨 LEAKED VIDEO: MAGA candidate Joe Mitchell, who just presented Donald Trump with a “Man of the Century” award, is caught on camera complaining that he “doesn't have a big d*ck” while making racist and disparaging comments about Black women.
ICE said Antonio Moreida jumped onto the hood of their vehicle.
Now a local police investigation concludes that an ICE agent struck him with his SUV.
The routine lying by ICE is the result of the example set by leadership of the Department of Homeland Security.
Ukrainian journalist Illia Ponomarenko recalls witnessing the aftermath of Russian attacks on civilians trying to flee.
“Half-burnt bodies lying on the asphalt” beside the wreckage of their cars.
“Something that you would expect to see in horror movies, but it's absolutely reality.”
Glad to see CNN reporting on this. @jimacosta.bsky.social and I raised concerns about DHS potentially using a military-grade “heat ray.”
After 20+ years in national security, I find this deeply troubling.
A weapon designed to inflict intense pain. Against civilians?
Why does DHS need this?
Something is off with Trump tonight. The gaffes, the glitches, the confusion are well beyond his usual.
"They gave the wonderful peace prize, right? Does anybody know the name of that peace prize? They gave the Pulitzer Prize to a young lady."
A Venezuelan billionaire charged with bribery sought a Trump pardon. His family then offered Alina Habba, still a DOJ adviser, a deal worth over $50 million. Weeks after she joined their company, Trump pardoned him. The swamp isn’t draining; it’s billing by the hour.

🚨 BREAKING: Democrats have filed a new lawsuit against Trump, asking a federal court to block his administration from:
🔺Threatening election officials with criminal prosecution
🔺 Pressuring states to remove voters from the rolls
The suit comes just a week after Trump’s DOJ sued California.
“TIME FOR THEM TO LEAVE”
The Memphis City Council passed a resolution tonight calling for the removal of ICE & the National Guard as part of the Trump-Lee UN-Safe Task Force. Multiple suspicious police killings. Harassing residents. A year+ of occupation.

“Wait! WAIT! You better be careful… Quiet! QUIET! What’s wrong with you? Are you a sick person?”
The short-tempered thin-skinned dictator wannabe with cratering approval numbers repeatedly loses his shit at reporters. (H/T @atrupar.com )
NEW: Hegseth's chaotic secret evacuation of a US base in Bahrain left military families in harm's way. “They’re not telling the truth. They’re not telling the full story. They’re not telling how much damage there really was." www.ms.now/news/militar...
Four brothers went to war against Hitler. Three were killed. The fourth survived, and his grandson, Volodymyr Zelenskyy, is the president of Ukraine.
Zelensky comes from a family that fought tyrants: Trump negotiates with them while demanding concessions from their victims.
What fresh hell?!
The Trump administration is trying to cheat from every angle.
Trump’s political appointees at DHS wanted federal cybersecurity officials to secretly obtain a voting machine, attempt to hack it, and send their findings to the White House.
Per USC 18 section 201 it is illegal to offer, give, or promise something of value with a corrupt intent.
So, even if no actual exchange of value occurs, it is still a bribe.
Jack Smith emerges as a surprise witness who could expose evidence in Trump’s lawsuit.
The BBC subpoenaed Smith for a deposition as part of its defense, according to court documents filed today.
The BBC knows how to fight.

KEEP YOUR FOOT ON THE GAS!
Early voting numbers are great, but a surge in turnout does not automatically mean Democrats are winning.
Remember 2022? More than 40 million Americans voted early too, and Republicans still flipped the House.
Get everybody to the polls!
America is *now* an ally of Russia? I'd argue it started in 2016 when the Trump campaign and the RNC softened the language on providing lethal defensive weapons to Ukraine as part of the Manafort/Kremlin/Yanukovich "peace plan" to cede Ukrainian territory to Putin. But okay. We can go with "now".
"A world in which the White House is allied to the Kremlin was, until now, the stuff of paranoid fiction. Manchurian candidates and red presidents were fantasies, dark tales Americans told themselves like ghost stories...
"But this alliance now exists."

BREAKING: President Trump has repeatedly claimed that Democrats are cheating by allowing noncitizens to vote.
But the poster child of Monday’s voter fraud sweep — who the DOJ alleges was illegally registered to vote in L.A. — is a registered Republican

I called my reps today to point out that Trump has now guilty of treason when he decided to fund Russia by ignoring sanctions. When one read a letter he’d written, I explained in no uncertain terms that now is not the time to write a strongly worded letter.
You should call yours too.
Ossoff: "What worries me right now is complacency about this race in Georgia, overconfidence about this race in Georgia. There's no such thing as a landslide victory in the state of Georgia. This remains the crucial battleground state."
Please don't let your confidence turn into complacency. We ALL must show up & vote!
Harris County TX shattered its early voting record on day 1 with 104,201 ballots cast by 6 pm, blowing past the previous record of 63,000 votes set during 2018 midterms.
R.I.P. Ann Hornaday of the Washington Post, the warmest and friendliest film critic I ever knew. We used to cross paths at the Middleburg FF, where she was a tremendously welcoming presence. She was at work on a book about the making of All the President’s Men. We need it now more than ever.
Trump issues a "Complete and Total Endorsement" of Netanyahu, warning Israelis that if they elect anyone else, "America will have to do this work ourselves" in Iran. He calls Bibi an "even greater Partner for Peace" for waging the war with him.
Nobody hates free speech more than the fascist tech oligarchs who claimed to care about it more than anyone. What an absolute joke.
P.S. they also hate democracy.
As we hand them control of the country.
