THE DALAI LAMA IS WEAK ON MONETARY POLICY.

"Indeed, for much of the 2010s and likely before and since, it appears the crime rate of CBP agents and offices was higher PER CAPITA than the crime rate of undocumented immigrants in the United States." www.doomsdayscenario.co/p/accountabi... #ICE #CBP #corruption

This is appalling: Top DOJ officials are actively pushing for a criminal investigation into the widow of Renee Good, leading prosecutors to quit en masse, NYT is reporting. Who in the White House ordered DOJ to do this? That's the next thing to establish.

Breaking: NYT now says *six* federal prosecutors in Minnesota have just resigned over the Justice Department's push to investigate the widow of Renee Good and the department's reluctance to investigate the ICE agent who shot Good, according to people with knowledge of their decision.

Masked ICE agents, it seems, are now killing American citizens on American streets. Any Democrat who doesn’t support abolishing ICE should be instantly primaried and run out of the party. This is non negotiable. You cannot support the continued existence of this fascist murderous secret police.

The Pam Bondi incident shows a dangerous escalation of Trump’s mob-boss behavior. He has evolved from first-term “who will rid me of this meddlesome priest” to “Pam, you specifically rid me of this meddlesome priest right now” just 7 months into his second. www.doomsdayscenario.co/p/rid-me-of-...

How about high-speed rail on earth?

Thanks for your patience, Minnesota. The Stone Arch Bridge is officially open and ready for the next 150 years.

Trump judges have held up the contempt hearing involving nominee Bove, while Trump-publicans ram him through Senate Judiciary Committee. We need to make sure that was not coordinated.

Financial decision. Sure yeah right.

Bove reported favorably out of Committee in straight party line vote, 12-10. A new nadir for the R Judiciary Committee and a disgusting result--rewarding someone who jumped to sacrifice the rule of law & violate his oath to serve a tyrant and then lied about it. Wretched, even by current standards.

Very good work. Read it and act. www.notesfromthecircus.com/p/the-secret...

We should be terrified of who the next new 19,000 ICE and CBP officers will be. Are you watching the news and excited to rough up abuelas, hog-tie the guy cutting the lawn down the street, or manhandle a member of Congress? Apply today! www.doomsdayscenario.co/p/four-fears...

Tomorrow in the @nytimes.com: Susie Barnshaw, a junior at a high school in Queens, is a bitch with a fat ass. Though this is not normally within the scope of our paper’s focus we realized that we were about to be scooped by @LolBigDickBoiii69420 on Twitter.

Coeur d'Alene has the highest concentration of right-wing white nationalists of any area in the country. Here is why today's terrorist attack on firefighters was probably carried out by liberal Democrats.

I'm going to try and communicate with my Republican colleagues in a new way.

Very excited about this new season! Listen here — or wherever you get your podcasts!

all i want is to one day own a modest sized home in a walkable neighborhood and raise money for shelter animals. wear an outfit i like, walk to the grocery store, buy some nectarines, feed cats, and live in peace. just don't understand why achieving this is so hard

I worry that escalating war with Iran will be used to whip up more fear and hate for non-white immigrants, particularly those of Arab descent, and be used for unjust deportations.

It should tell us something that OTHER federal law enforcement are now opening their interactions with the public by saying, “I’m not ICE!” In case you were wondering how toxic ICE has become….

Just to be crystal clear: bombing Iran is completely illegal.

Much as I would not dare to predict the consequences of this war, I do think we can summarize it thusly so far: A smart and evil man manipulated a stupid and evil man into a war against a fanatical and evil regime.

Personally I am unfamiliar with any legitimate activity that requires switching license plates, which by the way is illegal.

Sensible, practical advice.

Please read and share this statement from Sophie and Colin Hortman, children of Rep. Melissa Hortman and her husband Mark. (via WCCO reporter Caroline Cummings on X)

Seeing lots of people expressing concern over the second-degree murder charge in Minnesota. This is the highest available charge- the Minnesota statute is unusual and there is nothing odd at play here.

The Minnesota assassin appears to be a hate-filled right winger. So can we stop walking on eggshells about MAGA's legitimization of political violence? Yes, Republicans have also been the target of inexcusable violence, but this isn't a "both sides" issue. 1/ A🧵on the danger.

It should not be lost on anyone that Minnesota Rep Melissa Hortman, who was shot to death in her home last night by an assassin, was a gun safety advocate who worked tirelessly to protect her constituents from gun violence.

I’ve activated the State Emergency Operations Center. Local law enforcement in Champlin and Brooklyn Park have the full resources of the State of Minnesota behind them. We are monitoring the situation closely and will share more information soon.

On 6/12, DHS Sec’y Kristi Noem said “We are staying here to liberate [LA] from the socialists and the burdensome leadership this governor and mayor have placed on this country and this city.” This use of military force to displace a democratically elected is the very definition of a coup.

Los Angeles school worker shares frustration over parents having to leave their children’s graduation ceremony because ICE raided an elementary school’s graduation today

must be incredibly frustrating and disheartening to have federal funding that was promised to you for important work suddenly and arbitrarily ripped away

Gonna say something obvious to most: real masculinity defends the defenseless, punches up not down, has compassion, and fights only on behalf of others to battle injustice or evil. It doesn’t just lift weights and tweet in all caps and listen to Rogan and grow a beard to feel accepted by other men

Law enforcement officers should never cover their faces when making arrests or conceal their identities (unless they are working undercover). They work for us. We have a right to know who they are. These face coverings are frightening & unAmerican, as though they're ashamed of what they're doing.

My statement on the charges filed against me:

Cleveland didn’t take it home with him. BTW, Congress voted to accept the gift. It was hardly a bribe.

The fact that the attorney general's last job before this one was lobbying for the Qataris is a little on the nose.

“It's not a partisan issue. It’s not an ideological issue. So who voted for this? I personally don't remember Donald Trump's campaign promise to cut breast cancer research and to make menopause harder for American women,” says @chrislhayes.bsky.social.

Please watch and share. It can be easy to get a little lost in the details, but the ENTIRE THING they're doing is absolutely built on a foundation of lies and flagrantly illegal.

You saw the video of the ICE agent breaking a car window near the border, right? He wasn’t an ICE agent. He’s the founder of Veterans on Patrol, a FAR-RIGHT MILITIA patrolling the border for migrants. They’re basically deputizing militias to act as federal agents. This is dangerously out of control
