Attorney General Pam Bondi and FBI Director Kash Patel are facing federal court action over a systematic campaign to purge the bureau of perceived political enemies, according to a lawsuit filed in D.C. District Court, reports CBS News.
Breaking: The president has signed an executive order on mail voting. He has no lawful authority to write the rules that govern our elections. He tried a year ago; we sued him; we won. A year later, he has tried again. He can expect the same result. 1/2
The racist, white Christian nationalist, concentration camp-building, rule-of-law violating, anti-Constitutional, hate-mongering, government full of anti-Semites wants to compile a list of Jews. Those are just the facts. You can interpret them for yourselves.
BREAKING: A judge ruled the Trump-Vance admin violated the law in an attempt to condition access to federal housing funds on compliance with the admin’s partisan agenda.
This victory is another major step in the fight to ensure the admin cannot hold life-saving funding hostage to political whims.
We’re suing the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development for restricting access to housing grants based on politically-motivated criteria.
These federal funds exist to aid people experiencing homelessness — not to punish states, localities, and service providers trying to help.
lol if you flip it you can see it’s all about the goddamn ballroom
Were making war on another country, the economy feels super precarious and he’s focused on a ballroom
BREAKING: 49 Senate Republicans just VOTED DOWN our simple bill to pay TSA workers.
Republicans have now blocked TSA pay SEVEN times. It’s a slap in the face to the men and women who have been working without a paycheck for weeks.
This is the only thing you need to know.
Democrats want to open TSA. Republicans are refusing because they want to attach ICE funding.
That’s why there are long lines. ICE.
George W. Bush releases statement mourning Robert Mueller, calling him a lifelong public servant and decorated Marine who helped protect the U.S. after 9/11. Bush: “Laura and I are deeply saddened… We send our heartfelt sympathy to his family.”

Nine months ago, the United States "completely and totally obliterated" Iran's nuclear program.
Tonight, we're attacking Iran to disrupt their nuclear program.
A sizable percentage of this country thinks that's normal.
We can't just keep letting Trump do whatever he wants to do. All problems the Republicans warned if Harris became president are coming to fruition under Trump. We are letting a convicted felon lead us down a rabbit hole.
Y’all remember, there was a bipartisan bill that was ready to go but trump told gop lawmakers to kill it because he wanted to campaign on immigration. It can be fixed but this administration likes chaos and uncertainty. It’s by design.
The ICE surge in Minnesota cost $280M to detain 4k people. Of those- only 30 were accused of violent crimes.
$9 million per capture of the "worst of the worst".
Renee Good and Alex Pretti were unavailable for comment….
Dr. Richard Axel, who served as the co-director of the Zuckerman Mind Brain Behavior Institute, said his relationship with Epstein "was a serious error in judgment."
February 26 is an important date in the history of resistance, and it has to do with knitters during WWII. Come read the story. If you’re a knitter, maybe you’ll want to cast on with me tomorrow? And if you aren’t, there are other ideas for you here. open.substack.com/pub/joycevan...
NEW: The New York Times confirms my reporting that the DOJ is withholding several FBI interviews with a woman who accused Trump of sexually assaulting her as a child

We are starving Cuba out. That’s what is happening. No powered, dwindling food. In our name.
And getting even less attention than our possible war with Iran.
Homeland Security wants Social Media sites to expose Anti-ICE Accounts!!!!
The Government is trampling on our CIVIL LIBERTIES!!!!!

“Not only has Congress not authorized such a war, but it has barely even debated it. The administration has not bothered to explain, either to Congress or the American people, why it might bomb Iran or what it hopes to achieve…This is how an autocracy goes to war.”

It takes a great deal of arrogance to live in the U.S. with over 200 different sects of Christianity, all with their own unique theology, yet insist that only your sect has the authority to speak, not only for all Christians, but for every person in our country.
I just watched the 60 Minutes segment on the three babies, born in a concentration camp at the end of World War II. Horrifying and yet life affirming to see them as old people.
Tomorrow morning, I will have an article about Nazis. In this country.
Sen. Ruben Gallego (D-AZ) says he'll skip Trump State of the Union:
"This administration continues to disregard the rule of law & Constitution while failing to lower costs for American families. I have more productive ways to spend 2 hours than listening to more lies. I’ll pass.”
There are millions and millions of Americans who would happily receive their healthcare the way it is provided in Greenland and Denmark. And those who oppose it, don't understand what they're missing. The last thing Greenland needs is crappy, bankrupting, US healthcare from an anti-medicine US gov't
Jeffries on Fox News Sunday: "We believe this moment should be used to make dramatic changes to ICE that are bold, transformational, and meaningful ... these are basic, common sense demands."
Inspiring, dramatic, USA Hockey victories for both the men and the women this year. Congratulations to all. But let's be careful of the 1980 comparisons. Back then, we were the good guys, the champions of democracy against a totalitarian USSR. Today, it is, sadly, a very different story.
I just want to live in a country where the leader can’t enrich themselves with our tax dollars, the government does what the people want, and the wealthy have to follow the laws.
You know, like a democracy.
"In Chicago, of 92 people arrested for assaulting or impeding officers last fall, 74 cases have resulted in no charges; in 13 cases, charges were filed and dismissed; and five charged cases were still pending. . . there have been no convictions.

Trump is nowhere near being exhonerated. He is named as a fellow rapist in the Epstein files. As a known felon and rapist, he is just awaiting accountability for his crimes.
Neal Katyal: "In America, the chief justice said only Congress can impose taxes on the American people, and that's what tariffs are. Tariffs are taxes."
This is an incredible piece by @smencimer.bsky.social that really gets to the heart of—and the numbers that demonstrate—how terribly Trump is screwing over the communities that offered him the most support
If you’re okay with human beings and their children suffering in inhumane conditions, fearing the future, and having their right to due process ignored, you don’t have to tell me your religious beliefs.
The fact that you’re okay with those things tells me everything about your religious beliefs.
