In early 2025, I assumed the Trump regime would delete the Department of Justice’s press releases and other statements related to more than 1,000 Jan. 6 cases. So I downloaded them. We’ve now made them available to the public with a search tool. They can’t erase history. jan6memoryproject.org

Decades ago they joked that there was no more dangerous place to stand in Washington DC than right between Chuck Schumer and a TV camera. But for some reason this schmuck can’t work up a press release for a Democratic member of Congress being persecuted by the president.

OTD in 1945, President Truman awarded the Medal of Honor to WWII Army medic Desmond Doss, the first conscientious objector to receive nation's highest award for military valor. Doss, who refused to carry a weapon, saved lives of 75-100 wounded men on Okinawa's "Hacksaw Ridge." Image: Public domain.
This color image shows President Harry S. Truman, wearing a gray suit and glasses, preparing to put the Medal of Honor around the neck of Corporal Desmond T. Doss, U.S. Army. Doss wears an Army uniform and has a mustache and dark hair.

The raid on Rep. Omar is a FIVE ALARM FIRE. Trump is weaponizing the federal government to go after an opposition leader and escalate his viciously racist campaign against Somali Americans. We stand with Ilhan.

Washington Post: In a statement earlier Friday, the D.C. Board of Elections said it was raising the issue with the Guard “and have requested that they impose limitations on the placement of National Guard service members near drop boxes and other voting locations in the District.”

Livestreaming executions is what dictatorships and terrorist groups do. It has no place in America. Secretary Hegseth and the Pentagon must reverse this grotesque decision at once.

Fort Hood attacker's execution by firing squad will be livestreamed, Pentagon says
Pete Hegseth says the execution will be public, but a legal expert says the "unprecedented" decision is on "uncertain legal terrain".

This afternoon in Marble Hill, a New Yorker was shot by an ICE agent in a residential neighborhood. Early reports indicate agents surrounded him and a 5-year-old child in his car before firing multiple rounds. We believe the child was physically unharmed.

This is an unconscionable and incredibly serious situation. I have called the President; when we speak I will demand that he ends all ICE enforcement actions in our city. I will not stand by while ICE agents terrorize our communities.

Our thoughts are with the injured New Yorker and his family tonight. We are praying for his recovery.

Get ICE out of our neighborhoods. Get ICE out of our hospitals. Get ICE off our streets. Get ICE away from our children.

Abolish ICE.

We have three goals for the next No Kings Day on October 17: 1) Boosting vote turnout to the biggest it’s ever been for the midterms. 2) Getting our communities prepared to organize against election sabotage. 3) Creating a mandate for the reforms and accountability we want to see next year.

Some context to that whole "Mamdani and AOC were LAUGHING while the 9/11 victims' names were being read out" claim that has been sweeping across right-wing media and MAGA Twitter, from a former aide to Rudy Giuliani.
The videos of 
@NYCMayor
 and 
@AOC
 laughing are not true. I was standing next to them the whole time. The camera just caught her greeting him hello. Multiple other politicians were laughing and joking behind me. Republicans and Democrats.

And for the record I am a life long republican who has been very critical of these two. I’m just sick of this fake news and people just saying whatever they want.

Trump claims he was basically lifted out of the rubble on 9/11: "Two fireman, big strong guys, they grabbed me under the arms -- 'got to get our of here!' -- and they literally lifted me up, and they started running with me."
