After giving DHS a 14-day notice, I FINALLY got inside the DTLA detention center and field office. This summer, it held 300+ people a day. Today, there were just 2. ICE and DHS are hiding the truth and blocking real oversight. We demand answers, access, and accountability.

Unless Trump appears on tens of thousands or even hundreds of thousands of pages, it would be pretty easy for a very small team to glance through the documents to see what each mention is. So why did it take 1,000 people to scan for and scrub Trump's name? Bondi and Patel know. Trump does too.

Skeptics Reminder: Sidney Powell plead guilty in Fulton County, Georgia, where state prosecutors alleged she, and 19 others, were part of a conspiracy to overturn Trump’s 2020 loss in the state. I wonder if that's why Texas 2024 election results look like this...

This is what happens when the people, esp Peter Navarro, setting trade policy think tariffs fix everything. They don't pay attention to how tariffs actually work, slap tariffs on vital inputs, & throttle any hope at manufacturing growth. #EconSky

US manufacturing extends slump; factory employment lowest in 5 years

U.S. manufacturing contracted for a fifth straight month in July and factory employment dropped to the lowest level in five years amid tariffs that have raised prices of imported raw materials.

Hand counting paper voting records to make sure they match what the vote-counting computers report isn't radical; it's practical. Retaining and preserving those records wouldn't be a requirement unless there may be valid reasons to check the receipts. 📄

More and more Trump supporters are starting to realize the damage his tariffs are doing to the country. Everything is getting more expensive, even products made in the U.S. Trump’s trade war is a total disaster.

The thing that stands out here is so many Dems run campaigns terrified of (and thus buying into) the Fox News framing. Mamdani is rightly mocking that framing as ridiculous and it resonates. He's not running scared. He's running proud of who he is and what he stands for.

Phang: Teachers are some of the least paid, most underappreciated people, and they work in such an intimate way in our lives. Your kids spend more time at school than they do at home, at least in waking hours. So why not encourage our teachers? Why create this oppressive environment?

Last year the FTC acted to make it easier for consumers to cancel misleading subscriptions, adopting key parts of my Consumer OPT-IN Act. This ruling is more bad news for consumers — but I'm reintroducing my bill next week to stop these shady subscription scams once and for all.

Court blocks FTC ‘click to cancel’ rule designed to ease unsubscribing

The rule, unveiled by the Federal Trade Commission in the Biden era, would have made it easier to cancel subscriptions and was due to be enforced from July 14.

BREAKING: Documents filed in court today assert that officials from El Salvador told the United Nations that it "facilitated the use of the Salvadoran prison infrastructure" by the U.S. but that "the jurisdiction and legal responsibility for these persons lie exclusively with the" U.S.

As set forth in the attached Report, the Government of El Salvador responded to the UN
inquiry opened by the four families asking about the disappearance of their family members:
1 The attached exhibit has redacted personal identifying information for the four men discussed in the WGEID report. Petitioners can file an unredacted version of the exhibit under seal at the Court's request, with the exception of one of the cases for particular privacy reasons related to that individual.
1
Case 1:25-cv-00766-JEB Document 160
Filed 07/07/25
Page 2 of 4
The Salvadoran State emphatically states that its authorities have not arrested, detained, or transferred the persons referred to in the communications of the Working Group. The actions of the State of El Salvador have been limited to the implementation of a bilateral cooperation mechanism with another State, through which it has facilitated the use of the Salvadoran prison infrastructure for the custody of persons detained within the scope of the justice system and law enforcement of that other State. In this context, the jurisdiction and legal responsibility for these persons lie exclusively with the competent foreign authorities, by virtue of international agreements signed and in accordance with the principles of sovereignty and international cooperation in criminal matters. In this regard, the actions attributable to the Salvadoran State are limited to its sovereignty and territorial jurisdiction, and therefore it cannot be held responsible for the failure to observe the principle of non-refoulement with respect to the persons mentioned.
Ex. 1 at 6, 9 (emphasis added).
