As long as we can’t see the 60 minutes episode, I figured I’d reup this little chestnut (have to wonder whether this underreported angle featured in the segment) open.substack.com/pub/asharang...

Hint: It's not about fighting "terrorism," or stopping illegal immigration.

The story is insane. The acting head of cyber security, a Noem crony, repeatedly demanded to see highly classified information he didn’t need access to, and when staff set up a lie detector test as a condition to grant him access, he failed it. So DHS suspended the staffers.

RFK jr does not give one single fuck about saving children from suffering.

#EveryoneCloseToTrumpIsAWhiteSupremacist

Since his appointment, RFK Jr. has pursued a brutal vision of American health that several experts liken to a sort of eugenics. Kennedy has made it clear that certain deaths are acceptable or even preferable to a world where every child is vaccinated.

Western officials say over 100 documented incidents across Europe are part of a campaign of disruption masterminded by Russia since its invasion of Ukraine in 2022, aimed at depriving Kyiv of support, creating division among Europeans and identifying the continent’s security weak spots.

As we saw with the Abrego Garcia case, once their screwup becomes public, this administration doubles down and tries to destroy the life of their victim with a campaign of slander and brutality. Just watch how they're going to go after this woman and her family.

The Nazis also destroyed their state's historical landmarks on orders from Hitler, and built grandiose monuments to German power and their Führer.

Dems should do that, too!

Reporter: Can you intervene to help Americans?

trump: "🖕🖕"
Q: “These Obamacare subsidies are expiring now in a matter of just a few days. More than 20 million Americans are now bracing for their premiums to skyrocket. Are you going to let this happen, or will you intervene?”

Trump: “They will skyrocket because it was never any good.”

Democrats are working to ban the president, vice president, and lawmakers from trading stocks because they fight for working people, not their stock portfolios.

It’s time to get this common-sense measure to root out corruption across the finish line.
House Democrats roll out stock trading ban that includes Trump
The move could doom bipartisan efforts to ban stock trading, as Republicans may not back a measure that extends to the executive branch.

BREAKING: The Florida Supreme Court upheld Florida’s law, making it the only state to allow juries split 8-4 to sentence people to death.

Permitting non-unanimous, divided juries to sentence people to death is unconstitutional and increases the risk of executing an innocent person.

He should absolutely be fired by NYT for this. Major conflict of interest that he didn't disclose.
