To be clear, Pam Bondi took a $25K bribe from the orange felon to cover up his crimes with his fake university back when she was the trashy AG of Florida, so I don’t get why people are shocked that she fired an Ethics Chief at DOJ or that she’s hiding Epstein files, she’s a crook too.

Bondi fired her ethics advisor? I guess that makes sense to her. Who needs ethics??

No name. No badge. No ID. No warrant. Face covered. That’s not an officer that’s an armed thug with government protection. If you can’t show who you are or why you’re detaining someone, you have no business laying a hand on them.

futurism.com/truth-social... Is anyone surprised that Trump sold off $2.3 billion of his company’s stock BEFORE announcing his tariffs? His pals were also in on the profitable dump, including Pam Bondi so prosecution is unlikely. Although maybe NY AG will consider it?

Just before announcing a major escalation in his tariff war, president Donald Trump freed up the sale of his Truth Social shares.

He wore the cheesehead hat in WI. Spent $20 million. Paid people to sign petitions. Paid people to canvas. Did million dollar giveaways. A rally. TV interviews. But I guess people in Wisconsin didn’t appreciate an oligarch trying to buy their civil liberties.

Can’t make this up.
A tweet from "Covie" (@covie_93) that reads:
"Speaker Mike Johnson from the great state of 'Louisnana' wants to get rid of the Department of Education."

Below the tweet is an image of a large blue curtain featuring an emblem with a pelican and the words "SUPREME COURT" and "CONFIDENCE." The word "LOUISNANA" is prominently misspelled instead of "LOUISIANA." The mistake is highlighted with a red circle. In the foreground, three judges in black robes are seated at a table.

A US-born citizen was walking near Chicago in January. ICE snatched him off the street, handcuffed him, threw into a van. His wallet, which contained his ID, was confiscated. He was detained for 10 hours before being released without a record of what occurred. immigrantjustice.org/sites/defaul...
A screenshot from a court filing reads, in part: 

"Julio Noriega is 54 years old, was born in Chicago, and is a U.S. citizen. 

On January 31, 2025, he was walking near the corner of Cermak Road and Harlem Avenue in Berwyn, Illinois, handing out his resume to local businesses. 

As he walked out of a Jiffy Lube, he was approached by ICE officers who grabbed and handcuffed him and put him into a van, without an opportunity to explain his citizenship. 

The officers drove Julio and others around for more than an hour before bringing him to an ICE processing center, where he remained, still handcuffed, for several more hours. 

All the while, Julio had a wallet containing identification that ICE had confiscated.

The officers never showed Julio a warrant, and they did not ask him any questions to ascertain whether he was a noncitizen or a flight risk. 

After about 10 hours, ICE officers reviewed the contents of Julio’s
wallet, realized he was a U.S. citizen, and released him with no money and no paperwork."

@smerconish.bsky.social Republicans are banning books across the country. Like “To Kill A Mockingbird.” A book pulled from publication because of a positive reference to Musk angering Republicans shows they like their racist Nazi saluter more than, for instance, symbollically, Atticus Finch.
