"Under the plan, bounty hunters may receive “monetary bonuses” depending on how successfully they track down their targets — and how many immigrants they then report to ICE."

Yet in 2010, Noem—then a congressional candidate—had “20 speeding tickets, three stop-sign violations, two seat-belt violations and a citation for driving with no driver’s license.” She had six court notices for failing to appear, and had two warrants out for her arrest. trib.al/uQSDaqR

(1) As Brian points out, the Trump administration is invoking the discredited Obama-era rationale for trying to avoid the War Powers Resolution in Libya.

(2) Discredited by many across the aisle including this letter to Pres. Obama by Senators Mike Lee, Jon Cornyn, Ron Johnson, Rand Paul, etc⬇️

Awful: Pentagon officials told lawmakers Trump now claims authority to bomb people merely “affiliated” with “narco-terrorist" groups, Rep Adam Smith tells me. But under questioning, they wouldn't say what “affiliated” even means!

Trans people have warned for years that these anti-trans policies would hurt far more than just trans people.

Such a good point here from @davekarpf.bsky.social: If Dems don't engage forcefully enough on Trump's terror raids, Trump/MAGA propaganda filters down to the "inattentive public" and risks persuading people this is normal and acceptable.

Diversity doesn’t weaken unions. Racist bosses like Vance using racism to divide workers by race so they can exploit them weakens unions. All this stuff is arsonists complaining about the temperature in the building they set on fire. bsky.app/profile/diew...

"The removal eliminated a passage that read, “Our founders established ADL with the clear understanding that the fight against any one form of prejudice or hate cannot succeed without countering hate of all forms.”"

The largest war ship in the world has been moved to the Caribbean, along with other ships, bombers, amphibious vehicles and more.

That’s a lot of firepower to stop small vessels carrying drugs.

It looks a lot more like preparation for war.

Congress needs to get involved before it’s too late.

I'm kind of proud of myself today! I listened to a whole six minutes of David Frum talking on a podcast before I felt like I was about to throw up.

“Facts” in the Trump 2.0 era: Trump said it and I believe it!

Even in the Trumpist-“postmodern” world, reality actually does matter. And facts have a stubborn way of asserting themselves.

WE FOUND THE WASTE, FRAUD, AND ABUSE:

FBI Director Kash Patel used a $60 million government jet for a booty call during the shutdown.

Not the first time. In April, he made multiple trips to Nashville to see his 26-year-old country-singer girlfriend and even flew her around to hockey games.

lmao david byrne showed the video of the ice agents tripping over themselves while trying to run after a biker on wacker drive during the “life during wartime” segment of his chicago show tonight

"Weg von mir, ihr Verfluchten, in das ewige Feuer....! Denn ich war hungrig und ihr habt mir nichts zu essen gegeben; ich war durstig und ihr habt mir nichts zu trinken gegeben; ich war fremd und obdachlos und ihr habt mich nicht aufgenommen" (Mt 25,40ff)

Remember: The richest 1% evade over $160 billion in taxes every year.

That amount would fund SNAP for a year with money to spare.

Ask yourself who the real freeloaders are.
