Trump’s 145% tariffs are collapsing — not because China yielded, but because they’re crushing American families. He’s surrendering, spinning, and selling failure as victory. It’s a tantrum dressed up as policy — and we’re paying the price. Full Article: www.facebook.com/share/p/1AJw...

The oil industry buys off Congress. No action on climate. The NRA buys off Congress. No action on guns. Insurance companies buy off Congress. No action on health care. The list goes on and on. Money in politics is the root of our dysfunction.

I know others have gone into detail throughout the day, but I just want to make sure I highlight how important Judge Paula Xinis's order from today in Kilmar Abrego Garcia's case is. It is about discovery — the evidence the gov't is to turn over — but her points are sharp and the context is key.

IN THE UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT
FOR THE DISTRICT OF MARYLAND
KILMAR ARMANDO
ABREGO GARCIA, et al., *
Plaintiffs, *
Civil Action No. 8:25-cv-00951-PX

ORDER
Pursuant to this Court’s Letter Order Regarding the Filing of Discovery Motions (ECF No.
80), Plaintiffs have notified the Court of seemingly intractable discovery disputes that require
immediate attention to remain on the expedited discovery schedule. ECF Nos. 79 & 98. To
facilitate the just and expeditious production of discovery, the Court rules on Defendants’ stated
objections included within their answers to Interrogatories and responses to Requests for
Production of Documents (“RPDs”).

Lawyers for Luigi Mangione asked a federal court on Friday to bar prosecutors from seeking the death penalty against him, arguing that Attorney General Pam Bondi’s recently announced decision to do so was “explicitly and unapologetically political.”

Luigi Mangione Says Bondi’s Death Penalty Bid Is an Instagram Stunt

Lawyers for the man accused of killing a health insurance executive in Manhattan said the attorney general was trying to create content for Instagram by announcing she would pursue the death penalty.

My late wife battled ovarian and breast cancer successfully, only to die in an accident. If the Affordable Care Act (ACA) had not been in place, we would have faced lifetime payment limits and possible denial of care for her breast cancer for which one drug alone was $100K/year for treatment.
