Alarming — 🇺🇸 Senator @chrismurphyct.bsky.social denied access to military facilities in the Middle East: “Unprecedented. Hegseth is trying to cover up the extent of the damage from a war spiraling out of control. This should be unacceptable to everybody, Republican or Democrat.”

This 33-year-old nurse told the FBI she knew she was “going to set him free” after border patrol agents brought in a man whose face was bloodied and seriously injured. She treated him and helped him escape, and she faces charges now. He got away, and they never relocated him.

ICE BEHIND THE MASKS HAVE NAMES 2 masked agents threatened to arrest Robert Peck for legally observing them. He sued. “And now, because of a lawsuit, the (ICE) agents have names.” A Hylton 📌Nicholas Lapointe 📌Christopher Semler I hope more people take ICE to court when their rights are violated.

On this day in 1994, the Clinton administration's heathcare reform plan was declared "dead" by Congress. Over 30 years later, the US is still the only industrialized country without universal healthcare. This should be a national outrage.

This shit never stops. Trump has begun construction of an unannounced helipad on the white house lawn. The project funds were gifted to him by Lockheed Martin. Lockheed Martin gets tens of billions in federal contracts annually. Do you see what's happening here?

There is something brutally psychically injurious to being constantly told "just do good work and you'll be successful" while watching people who do the most dogshit work possible do all the succeeding.

What's happening to CBS News is what the tech oligarchs call "parallel" strategy. Buy an existing institution, gut it, and convert it into a right-wing zombie version of itself. They are doing this to media, government, education, biotech, defense tech, etc. Some call it the "Network State."

OK, this is a little out of the box, but since ratings are the issue... What if CBS started broadcasting 60 Minutes staff meetings during the 630 pm slot (instead of that Dokoupil Evening News thing)? They could call it "Enjoy The Bagels"

Remember: while you’re struggling to afford the rising cost of groceries, Trump’s allies are cashing in on his $1.8B slush fund.

Groceries just had the biggest price hike in years. It’s about to get even worse, experts warn
Unfortunately, things may be about to get a whole lot more expensive, economists are warning.

One thing lost in the IRS convo is that there will be a new president at some point who has every right in the world to revisit the conditions of the signed agreement. I suspect that arguments about upholding the good faith of govt contracts will be hard to hear through all the laughter.

VA conducted internal investigations into employees who attended vigil for Alex Pretti | CNN Politics
Becky Halioua, who was investigated after attending a vigil for Pretti shortly after his death, feels the VA probe is a “scare tactic” and an attempt to silence those “with the loudest voices.”

Aaron Astor: My general tendency is to reject conspiracy theories. And yet, this keeps happening - massive trades just minutes before Trump announces something. And that something (Iran handing over uranium and opening Hormuz) often turns out not to be true at all.
