He spent 16 years in prison, then 23 more as a registered sex offender. She went on to literary fame as the author of “The Lovely Bones” and portrayed Broadwater’s conviction as just in a bestselling memoir called “Lucky.”

Immediate punishment for speaking out against the regime.

ICE shooter Joshua Jahn's politics aren't what's being reported, three longtime former friends tell me. www.kenklippenstein.com/p/the-ice-sh...

Fifteen years after Citizens United opened the floodgates of corporate and dark political money, the Center for American Progress has figured out how to slam them back shut. CAP published its groundbreaking how-to report today: "The Corporate Power Reset That Makes Citizens United Irrelevant."

Hasan Piker in the New York Times: "I was supposed to debate Charlie Kirk. Here’s what I would have said"

I just decided to look up if Charlie Kirk and I ever had any interaction so I Googled our names together. This is what the A. I. reported back. I didn’t post a critical comment. I haven’t used “lmaos” in my life. A. I. is heavy on the artificial & light on the intelligence. What’s up, Google?

Trump told the WSJ that it was impossible he wrote a 2003 birthday message to Epstein, which featured a bawdy line drawing of a woman, because "I never wrote a picture in my life." This is a lie In 2005, Trump drew picture of the NYC skyline for a charity auction. It was re-sold in 2017 for 30K

Let's talk about these two department store owners: brother and sister Louis Bamberger and Caroline Bamberger Fuld. From Newark, New Jersey. They are random people, basically. But in the late 1920s, with fascism taking over Europe, they made a choice that profoundly changed the world: 🧵

Important thread:

WOW. The Trump admin said they will review social media and deny immigration benefits to people saying antisemitic claims. They're even trying to deport people with green cards on alleged claims of antisemitism. Anyway, here's a tweet from an Afrikaner they flew here on Monday.

A reminder that if the government can send migrants to a prison camp without any due process, it can send U.S. citizens there, too. I know because this happened to me and my family in 1942.

NOTE: Tonight, John Mulaney has the chance to do something important. Neal Katyal is a partner at Milbank, which just capitulated to Trump. Someone who knows Mulaney, please tell him about this and ask him to talk with Neal about it. I have laid it out here: www.lawdork.com/p/law-firms-...

I will never forget the photo of Zelenskyy’s face after he saw Russia’s war crimes in Bucha in 2022. He seemed to age years in an afternoon. Watching him constantly cross the world asking for aid that should have been thrown at him is one of the deepest shames of our age.

Every news outlet reporting Elon Musk's comment about accidentally canceling Ebola prevention efforts and quickly restoring them should also say they haven't been restored, they're still canceled, the outbreak-fighting teams are dismantled, the money is gone www.washingtonpost.com/politics/202...

Complete batshit lunacy on the president's Truth Social account. Yes, he really posted this.

NEW — 19-year-old DOGE engineer Edward Coristine turns out to be the grandson of former KGB spy Valery Martynov, who played a role in a sprawling 1980s espionage saga. www.jacobsilverman.com/p/prominent-...

Did the @nytimes.com really quote the mf-ing communications director of the Houston YOUNG REPUBLICANS as if he were just some random young Black person who likes Trump? Cause it sure looks like it.

Lutheran Social Services is one of the largest employers in South Dakota, operating senior living facilities across the state. Republicans are shutting it down Perhaps more concerning is Mike Flynn, known foreign asset, having access to this data?

“NPR has identified dozens of defendants with prior convictions or pending charges for crimes including rape, sexual abuse of a minor, domestic violence, manslaughter, production of child sexual abuse material and drug trafficking.” www.npr.org/2025/01/30/n...

Hitler-loving white nationalist Nick Fuentes on Elon Musk's salute: "That was a straight up like 'Sieg Heil',' like loving Hitler energy."

Sergeant Gonell @sergeantaqgo.bsky.social sent me this picture. This is his call log. Each call is an automated Dept of "Justice" notification saying "The defendant you testified against is being released from the dept of corrections." Each defendant assaulted him.

Bezos spiked the Washington Post editorial endorsing Harris, saying that the paper needed to stay neutral to maintain the trust of its readership. Now the Washington Post editorial board is out with a piece urging Congress to rubber stamp nearly all of Trump's cabinet nominees

everything about this new Meta AI bot is so dystopian but for me the AI-generated images of nonexistent donated coats is up there

Briana Boston said "delay defend depose" to an insurance corp. She owns 0 guns—but was arrested, charged w/terrorism, & given $100K bond Brad Spafford called to assassinate Kamala. He has multiple illegal guns, 150 bombs, & lied to FBI—but NOT charged w/terrorism, & given $25K bond Beyond Absurd.

This is literally true. School vouchers were pioneered as a way to help white supremacists send their kids to a new wave of private "segregation academies" created expressly for the purpose. From my book WHITE FLIGHT:

So don’t give up hope. Do not despair. That is what they want, and we shall not give them that satisfaction. In Japanese, there is a word my mother used to say to me. “Gaman, Georgie,” she’d say. It means to endure with fortitude and dignity. We all could benefit the spirit of Gaman. /5
