In early 2025, I assumed the Trump regime would delete the Department of Justice’s press releases and other statements related to more than 1,000 Jan. 6 cases. So I downloaded them. We’ve now made them available to the public with a search tool. They can’t erase history. jan6memoryproject.org

Dozens of masked settlers attacked Palestinian villagers and savagely beat a Washington Post photographer today. "Israeli troops arrived shortly before the attack, which seemed to embolden the settlers. Soldiers fired tear gas at Palestinians and 'did absolutely nothing about the settlers.'"

His mom suffers a severe eye disease that costs $500 to treat a month. He’s a beggar in genocide. Give.

Most judges rule against the Trump administration in habeas cases, and immigrants are released from detention. But ProPublica found some judges take far longer to review petitions, meaning people are stuck waiting in detention facilities for months.

Fines and damages should be proportionate to a business’s assets. That’s the only way any of them will follow the law. When we sued Google for gender discrimination and they settled for $118M, that was still cheaper for them than paying women fairly.
