George Will: "Pete Hegseth seems to be a war criminal. Without a war. An interesting achievement. ... The killing of the survivors by this moral slum of an administration should nauseate Americans. A nation incapable of shame is dangerous, not least to itself" www.washingtonpost.com/opinions/202...
MAGATrump plans:

2) find fraud from 2020 elections
3) declare 'national security emergency'
4) take control of the election system
5) elect Omarosa
"SLOPPINESS": The Trump administration claimed that a man detained by ICE had a criminal convictions for marijuana possession in 2009.
The judge pointed out that the man was 4 years old at the time.

“Yesterday, I reviewed unredacted evidence logs at the Department Of Justice. Oversight Democrats can confirm that the DOJ appears to have illegally withheld FBI interviews with this survivor who accused President Trump of heinous crimes." - Rep. Robert Garcia in a new statement
An NPR investigation finds the public database of Epstein files is missing dozens of pages related to sexual abuse accusations against President Trump. n.pr/4qTItsU
It's not a new observation at this point but that wild Noem/Lewandowski story in WSJ really brings home the extent to which all the Trump 2 cabinet-level goblins see their jobs as flying private, doing short-form video, and screaming at underlings. They all hate each other and none of them can read.
Warehouse was purchased for $29M by Russians, DHS then buys it for $129M, to use it as detention center.
Trump’s MAGA is corruption in service of evil.

New York Fed researchers found that Americans are bearing the brunt of Trump's tariffs. The White House's economic adviser said they should be "disciplined."
“I don’t want to be in this place I want to go to my school.”
- 7 year old imprisoned by ICE for 70 days in a concentration camp in Texas.
Today, after @propublica.org published this story, the camp was raided to confiscate letters from the children.

Some striking arguments here from Rep. Jamie Raskin (D-MD) to Pam Bondi
"You replaced real prosecutors with counterfeit stooges who robotically do the President's bidding"
"Trump orders up prosecutions like pizza.. and you deliver every time"
Jon Stewart on MAGA: "These people... are so triggered by someone singing in Spanish for 20 minutes, they needed to create their own safe-space alternative halftime show"
I reviewed Epstein file redactions today.
One redacted document is an email from Epstein’s attorneys recounting a conversation with Trump in 2009.
The email includes no mention of victims and should not have been redacted.
There were many other inexplicable redactions.
The heads of Amazon, Alphabet, Meta, and Tesla all joined Trump at his inauguration.
Since then, largely thanks to Trump's Big Ugly Bill, their companies have reaped $51B in federal tax breaks — paid for by huge cuts to our social safety net.
This is what oligarchy looks like.
U.K. might lose a prime minister because a guy who worked for him knew another guy who hung out with Epstein. Meanwhile the U.S. opposition party is telling our President, who was Epstein's best friend, that his secret police should get better training so their public street murders look less messy.
Breaking MS NOW:
Some of the Epstein docs the DOJ invited members of Congress to view are STILL redacted, despite promises otherwise.
Raskin says DOJ's reading room has just four computers. It would take seven years to get through the files in the current conditions established by the DOJ.
This should open some eyes of the 'conserviative' base of the US.
It's not just a subtly racist authoritarian regime on the rise - it's an outright authoritarian regime on the rise. It continues under its own momentum - if you don't change your direction, you'll end up where you're headed.
Haven't seen this angle mentioned, but it's an extraordinary national security risk to have an anonymous "staffer" impersonating the president of the United States, posting racist memes, from his personal accounts, at 10 PM.
It’s bad enough that we’re subsidizing extremely profitable sports teams with our tax dollars to build stadiums, but we’re letting them charge us $17 dollars for a beer and $11 dollars for a damn hotdog at the concession stand?
Enough. Here’s one thing we can do about it.
Trump's big, ugly budget megabill gives ICE more agents than the FBI, more jails than the federal Bureau of Prisons, and a larger budget than most countries' militaries.
Not one more penny for ICE.
A Nobel Peace Prize nomination for Minneapolis is really a recognition of people power and it’s the first time a whole city has been put forward for the prize.
The right move. And an excellent, forceful statement: "We have asked the court to order the immediate return of all seized materials and prevent their use. Anything less would license future newsroom raids and normalize censorship by search warrant.”

SLEEP WELL, KRISTI NOEM, IN ETERNAL DAMNATION.
Nothing digs up the dead and disgraced reality of what’s underneath a thousand face-lifts and injections better than the memo of a real-life honorable citizen of the United States.
Georgia Fort, an independent journalist and vice president of the Minnesota NABJ chapter, was also arrested by federal agents this morning
I was sent this video of agents at her door:
TikTok is now state-controlled media.
This morning I posted a TikTok about my legislation allowing people to sue ICE agents. It's sitting at zero views, and I'm not the only person this is happening to.
Trump: "With that being said, you can't have guns. You can't walk in with guns. You just can't. You can't walk in with guns. You can't do that. But it's just a very unfortunate incident."
.@PabloReports: What do you make of Trump’s cognitive decline?
Crockett: I honestly don’t think he was equipped to be sworn into office in the first place.
Mischief Toy Store in St. Paul has until Wednesday to turn over employment records to the Department of Homeland Security as part of a surprise audit launched Friday, just hours after one of the shop's owners criticized ICE agents during a television interview. bit.ly/4r5AFol

Taking over Greenland is not a joke. Trump is sending messages to foreign leaders and making threats that will destroy the most important alliance we have. Are Republicans in Congress and Marco Rubio really ready to throw NATO away because they’re too afraid to stand up to Trump?
“Is Greenland or NATO more essential to 🇺🇸 national security?”
BESSENT: “That's obviously a false choice.”
“Not from the perspective of European leaders.”
Greenland Vs. NATO is not a “false choice” — it’s literally the only choice, and It’s the entire reason Putin wants this to happen.
