"When Trump plucked Katie Zacharia from obscurity & appointed her as his new press sec, he called her 'an attorney.' This is also how Zacharia describes herself. But Popular Information searched for evidence in all 50 states, plus DC, that she was admitted to practice law anywhere — & found none."

Trump’s new press secretary, Katie Zacharia, claims she’s a lawyer. Is she?
There is no evidence Zacharia has ever been licensed to practice law — and the White House did not provide any

Overnight, this Eastern ICE charter landed in Senegal, a likely fuel stop, and has now landed in Sierra Leone, a likely third-country removal. This will be the fourth TCR to Sierra Leone. Migrant passengers have been shackled for at least 13 hours. There are likely more stops.

most of the headlines about this are complicit with the fascists in power, but let’s be clear: they raided her house because of who she is, not because she’s done anything to justify this treatment. the president shouldn’t be able to weaponize the government against his political enemies.

DHS has known for over a decade that immigration agents shoot into cars wily nily for no reason, or even specifically jump in front of cars to manufacture justification to shoot people. The shooting in New York on Thursday, Renee Good, so many others, it's by design.

Video from the scene shows NYPD rush to a man who’s surrounded by ICE agents and carry him into an unmarked SUV. Video also shows ICE agent Brendan Cuni carrying a rifle and wearing a work vest. Witnesses say Cuni shot him. Cuni, who’s from NYC, is known for dragging a pregnant woman in MSP.

We can reasonably assume these commuters are the folks @mndot.mn.gov prioritizes when they decide to expand I94 in Saint Paul and Minneapolis. That might ease congestion for a year or two before it gets worse overall and forever. Wouldn't it be great instead to spend those millions on transit?
