Ted Lieu: “Donald Trump is in the Epstein files thousands and thousands of times. In those files, there are highly disturbing allegations of Donald Trump raping children … of Donald Trump threatening to kill children. So I encourage the press to go look at these allegations.”

The House GOP point person for election issues asked ten states how their voter registration systems verify citizenship. The demands come as Republicans draft "an even stronger" version of the SAVE Act, which already sought to mandate proof of citizenship for voter registration.

While the SAVE Act passed the House in April, it's been stalled in the Senate, where it would need the support of Democrats to clear a filibuster.

Reporter: Francisco Longoria was stopped in his car with his son in the passenger seat. One of the Border Patrol agents smashes the glass, and then Longoria drives away. It's very clear that there were no federal agents in front of Longoria's vehicle, yet the agent discharged his firearm at him

Merkley: "What we've seen is that democracies no longer die bc men w/guns go in and take it over. Instead, it's electeds who erode the separation of power. If you have a rubber-stamp Congress & courts that deliver more power to the executive, suddenly you have an authoritarian state. It's here now."

If what Trump is doing is legal - if his loopholes are technically real loopholes - the laws need to change. An if it's illegal, folks need to go to jail. No other options unless you want *all of this* to be standard American politics from here on out. @jvl.bsky.social and @eggerdc.bsky.social:

Gonna be thinking about this lede for a minute.
(RNS) — Last month, the Rev. David Black stood in front of a Chicago-area U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement facility and spread his arms wide. Adorned in all black and wearing a clerical collar, the pastor looked up at a group of masked, heavily armed ICE agents on the roof and began to pray.

“I invited them to repentance,” Black, a minister in the Presbyterian Church (USA), said in an interview. “I basically offered an altar call. I invited them to come and receive that salvation, and be part of the kingdom that is coming.”

But when Black began to lower his arms a few seconds later, the agents responded to his spiritual plea by firing pepper balls, or chemical agents that cause eye irritation and respiratory distress, video footage shows. One struck Black in the head, exploding into a puff of white pepper smoke and forcing him to his knees. Fellow demonstrators rushed to his aid, and as the pastor rubbed his face in pain, the agents continued to fire.

“We could hear them laughing,” Black said.

Explains this perfectly.
The part of the book that caused the most controversy concerns Trump's divorce from his first wife, Ivana. Hurt obtained a copy of her sworn divorce deposition, from 1990, in which she stated that, the previous year, her husband had raped her in a fit of rage.
In Hurt's account, Trump was furious that a "scalp reduction" operation he'd undergone to eliminate a bald spot had been unexpectedly painful. Ivana had recommended the plastic surgeon. In retaliation, Hurt wrote, Trump yanked out a handful of his wife's hair, and then forced himself on her sexually.
Afterward, according to the book, she spent the night locked in a bedroom, crying; in the morning, Trump asked her, "with menacing casualness, 'Does it hurt?'

Honestly, you know what some blue state governors should do? Send their NG troops to DC to "help." Openly say that they trust their troops more than SC and OH troops to obey the law and know what's allowed and what's not, and they're sending them to reduce the likelihood of a tragedy.
