Our Pulitzer-winning "Friends of the Court" series began with this story that revealed how SCOTUS Justice Clarence Thomas had, for 20+ years, been treated to undisclosed luxury vacations by real estate titan and GOP megadonor Harlan Crow. (Published April 2023)

Doing one thing right every few years doesn’t absolve the Roberts court. Especially after Dobbs and immunity.

Don't congratulate John Roberts or the Supreme Court. Congratulate Rick Woldenberg, the Chicago-area leader of Learning Resources, an educadtional toy company that had the courage to sue the president of the United States to save his family business. As well as everyone else who stepped up.

FYI: Judge Ellis (Chicago ICE case) noted in November that video evidence shows ICE "brake-checked other motorists in an attempt to force accidents that agents could then use as justifications for deploying force."

He’s using Venezuela as a distraction so we’ll forget about the Epstein files. Joke’s on him. We can multitask. Release the Epstein files.

Last week, ICE arrested and separated a father and son after a routine check-in. Six-year-old Yuanxin had just enrolled in the first grade at an elementary school in Astoria. Now he's in custody, alone. ICE won't say where. This cruelty serves no one. It must end.

The war will end when Russia stops fighting. Therefore, pressure has to be put on Russia, so that they stop believing that they will win. Why is that so hard to understand?

New rule: if you’re a Supreme Court Justice and you’re mentioned in the Epstein files, you have to recuse from any future lawsuit about the Epstein Files Transparency Act.

Please, I beg of you and your colleagues: replace @schumer.senate.gov as @democrats.senate.gov leader. This is the second time too many with D after their name have caved to legislative bullying by the White House and the Senate GOP. This is not what we voted for. Schumer MUST be replaced.

I haven’t seen anyone talk about how Jane Doe - an Epstein survivor - just sued the Bank of New York Mellon for funding Epstein and failing to file a Suspicious Activity Report. A Mellon heir is the one who gave $130M to pay the troops. Seems bribey to me.

Just a warning: the images from Helsinki are not from the No Kings protest but from a march in solidarity with Palestine. The No Kings gathering here, though, did have ~100 people gathering outside Oodi, and was organised by Democrats Abroad. It also made the national news here.
