Wow. They’re openly defending the deletion of DOJ records about a man accused in a child solicitation case who assaulted police on January 6. Truly the Epstein administration.

📌The thing about Jack Smith's testimony today is that it is easily corroborated because we all watched the attack on TV, including the guy behind it, who did nothing about it for three hours.

This is the most astonishing graph of what the Trump regime has done to US science. They have destroyed the federal science workforce across the board. The negative impacts on Americans will be felt for generations, and the US might never be the same again. www.nature.com/immersive/d4...
This line graph illustrates the percentage change in agency staff levels from the previous year for nine major U.S. federal scientific and health organizations between the fiscal years 2016 and 2025. The agencies tracked include the CDC, Department of Energy, EPA, FDA, NASA, NIH, NIST, NOAA, and NSF. For the majority of the timeline between 2016 and 2023, the agencies show relatively stable fluctuations, generally staying within a range of +5% to -5% change per year. However, there is a dramatic and uniform plummet starting in the 2024–25 period. Every agency depicted shows a sharp downward trajectory, with staffing losses ranging from approximately -15% to over -25%. The Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) shows the most significant decline, dropping to roughly -26%, while the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) shows the least severe but still substantial drop at approximately -15%.

Samuel Alito flew two flags used by insurrectionists. Clarence Thomas' wife plotted to overturn the 2020 election. Both justices refused to recuse themselves from SCOTUS cases related to the January 6th plot. It's a stain on our nation that this has effectively been forgotten.

The plaque honoring the law enforcement officers who responded to the January 6, 2021, attack on the U.S. Capitol, which was commissioned by Congress in 2022, remains in storage. Mike Johnson has refused to place it on the wall, as was intended. That "deed" speaks pretty loudly.

Laura Rodriguez, on Twitter:

A federal agent points a weapon at a woman who was recording them.

Jess, a U.S. citizen and member of a neighborhood patrol team that documents and shares ICE activity across the city, was filming when the incident occurred earlier today in the Berwyn area.

Anyone else sick of being lectured by the likes of liars and hypocrites like JD Vance?
The image shows a post from the X account "Trump Lie Tracker" (@MAG...1d), a commentary account. The post highlights a statement attributed to JD Vance, who reportedly said that people who encourage violence against law enforcement should "go 'straight to hell'" and deserve no place in America's political discourse. The post then criticizes this stance by referencing Donald Trump, who pardoned rioters that assaulted police on January 6th. The image includes a screenshot of JD Vance speaking, with a Fox News broadcast label indicating a breaking news segment about a shooting at a Dallas ICE facility.
