All of our models of governance assume the agency head isn’t there to tear the entire thing down. It’s like a private equity takeover of government

neither the president of the united states nor the secretary of hhs has said one word about today’s attack on a federal agency’s headquarters, which killed a police officer. and it’s probably better that way, but still shameful and rotten nonetheless.

As of today, thanks to Trump, Americans are paying the highest tariff rate since 1933. And the average household is going to lose out on $2,400 thanks to Trump's tariffs. You are paying more for almost everything because of Trump himself.

Well, well, well. With Emil Bove safely through his sham Senate confirmation proceedings, the two Trump judges just lifted the three-months-long administrative stay that had kept any evidence of Bove’s contempt of court bottled up. 🧵

A new era of government censorship has begun. It started with the silencing of scientific speech, when the admin blocked release of research on bird flu. But MAGA has also cracked down on other wrongthink—on race, geography (!), and of course Trump himself www.washingtonpost.com/opinions/202...

We should not frame this as cowardice. Cowardice assumes they don’t want it. The point is that they supported democracy if it benefited them, and the moment it didn’t, they didn’t. They are at best neutral to it: what matters is themselves and their power. It is why fascism arrived at all.

When I suggested Democrats hold daily press conferences to share stories of Republican pedophiles, I meant they could bring up all the old stories. I didn’t think that we’d get new stories about a GOP pedophile every day, but whatever works I guess

If it is the official position of DHS that the Dodger Stadium crew wasn't them, then MAYBE they might want to urgently figure out who the imposters were and have a policy where ICE shows consistent name badges, uniforms and ID

It is the official position of ICE that this very real event that did, in fact, happen was not them. Vigilantism is worse. It would be nice if federal agents had means to identify themselves as legitimate law enforcement.
FWIW: ICE spokesperson tells HuffPost it "was never at Dodgers stadium, and thus never tried to gain access;" referring one of our reporters to Border Patrol
