Let’s be honest: there have already been several bizarre moments from Trump this morning alone that would justify invoking the 25th Amendment.

He is a seriously unwell individual.

And people who believe this have forgotten Rule #1:

Do not believe a SINGLE word that comes out of the pie hole or tiny vulgarian posty-fingers of a pathologically lying, carnival barking, convicted felon.

Not. One. Word.

You know you're a bad cop if the prospect of accountability shakes you to your core.

Peter @notalawyer.bsky.social · 6h

the actual story here, which the media never talks about, is that police in this country have become a discrete right-wing political operation. the story isn't about cops leaving (they're lying about that), it's about the police trying to exert influence over elections.

Everett 13-year-old arrested by ICE and sent to Virginia detention facility

A 13-year-old boy was arrested by ICE in Everett and sent to a juvenile detention facility in Virginia.
A 13-year-old boy was arrested by ICE in Everett and sent to a juvenile detention facility in Virginia.
A 13-year-old boy was arrested by Immigration and Customs Enforcement agents in Everett after an interaction with members of the Everett Police Department and sent to a juvenile detention facility in Virginia, according to his mother and immigration lawyer Andrew Lattarulo.

The boy’s mother, Josiele Berto, was called to pick her son up from the Everett Police Department on Thursday, the day he was arrested. After waiting for about an hour and a half, she was told her son was taken by ICE, Berto told the Globe in a phone interview.

“My world collapsed,” Berto said in Portuguese.

From the police department, the boy was taken to ICE’s holding facility in Burlington on Thursday evening, where he spent a night before being transferred by car to the Northwestern Regional Juvenile Detention Center in Winchester, Va., on Friday morning, his mother said. The juvenile facility is more than 500 miles away from Everett.

The boy is a 7th-grader at Albert N. Parlin School in Everett, his mother said. The teen and his family, who are Brazilian nationals, have a pending asylum case and are authorized to work legally in the United States, Lattarulo said.

This image shows a stack of six lightning bolts nearly striking the same spot six time in only one minute of elapsed time! Mother nature really had it out for whoever was down there... #photography

A sculpted, layered LP supercell at night. The structure is illuminated by six lightning strikes hitting the ground to the right of the storm. A clear, starry night sky is on the left of the storm. A car's headlights can be seen in the distance.

BREAKING: DeSantis was mid-speech when a protester erupted with accusations about Epstein.

The tension was electric — the room froze. The Epstein scandal isn’t over. It’s a political bomb that keeps finding new targets.

John Oliver sounded the alarm this week on how secret donations to presidential libraries provide cover for bribery. We couldn’t agree more.

It’s time to close the library loophole — and you can help.
