One person should not have this much control over a country’s national security.

HAPPENING NOW: Judge Reyes is furious. She has repeatedly told the government to inform her before any major demolition work was done on the golf course. The abrupt removal of 500 trees, without notice, "has cost the government all of its credibility" in this case.

Do yourself a favor and skip all the Thom Tllis interviews. They’re full of lame, weak-sauce, apologist drivel.

Don’t bother listening to the weak sauce, apologist Thom Tillis interviews. And definitely don’t buy his dumb book.

I LOVE how @propublica.org dealt with official comment here, editorially and stylistically.
The Trump administration says none of this is happening. 

"DHS is NOT arresting U.S. citizens by mistake." "There are no 'indiscriminate' stops." Allegations of "racial profiling are disgusting, reckless and categorically FALSE." "The pattern is NOT of law enforcement using force." "ICE does not zip tie or restrain children." 

But that is precisely what is happening, and at a far larger scale than previously reported.

This is a perfect critique of both-sidesism. It’s not polarization; it’s radicalization. The right has rejected the three precepts of liberal democracy: equality under the law; the law applies to everyone; the peaceful transfer of power.

Nope. Sauvignon Blanc, because people who like Chardonnay will drink anything and people who like Sauvignon Blanc are discerning and only like Sauvignon Blanc. There, I said it.

Jack Smith: "History teaches that the rule of law is rarely destroyed all at once. It's often weakened by attacks on the institutions and the public servants sworn to uphold it. Since January 2025, we have witnessed precisely such an effort."

It never ceases to amaze me how orgs spend all that time and money on a plot, only to get the copy wrong. I have worked for many years in cybersecurity, and I see the same with online scams. If you're going to spend millions to carry out a cybercrime, why not invest $25 for a copyedit?

It’s basically a warning to all decent people left at the DOJ. And even the not-decent ones. Blanche will throw them under the bus, too.

Abbott is not only contributing to the deaths of pregnant women, he’s hiding maternal death data. Texans who think women should live will vote for a new governor. #GinaForTexas #AbbottFailsTexas
