From USA Today - DOJ was pursuing 10 Epstein "co-conspirators" in 2019. WTF happened?

Wow. Genuinely shocked, and a hugely consequential decision.

Importantly, this is a case where @martylederman.bsky.social's amicus brief appears to have made a MAJOR impact. Before he wrote it, courts were sidestepping the "regular forces" issue entirely. And that's what the Trump admin lost on.
NEW: By a 6-3 vote, the Supreme Court blocks Trump’s deployment of the National Guard to Chicago to assist immigration agents. A majority holds that he likely lacks authority to do so. Thomas, Alito, and Gorsuch dissent. www.supremecourt.gov/opinions/25p...

Greenland Envoy Gov. Jeff Landry: "Look, the United States has always been a welcoming party. We don't go in there trying to conquer anybody and trying to take over anybody's country. We say, 'Listen. We represent liberty. We represented economic strength. We represent protection.'"

The U.S. military just announced another strike on a boat it claims was smuggling drugs near Venezuela, again without evidence. One more person dead. Over 100 killed so far.

Trump also threatened the president of Colombia.

"As long as Trump keeps his thumb on the scales at the U.S. Department of Justice, no one should ever expect a fair shake — let alone an honest accounting of the yearslong connection between a convicted sex offender and a convicted president who is a congenital liar," The Editorial Board writes.

Good framing, NBC News, the Speaker (a Republican, if I recall correctly), who previously had them out for weeks rather than work on the shutdown or release the Epstein Files, is now skeedaddling off while one party is shouting for them to remain and get it done. But CONGRESS, sure.
REMINDER: Republicans sent themselves home for the holidays without any solution to the health care crisis they’ve inflicted on Americans.

Easy to celebrate the season when your health care isn’t at risk!

Sean Duffy says he now has veto power over appropriations passed by Congress and signed into law. He is the dictator over infrastructure funds. If you do something he doesn’t like, you lose the funds passed by Congress. bsky.app/profile/atru...
Sean Duffy on blue states: "What I can do is I can pull their money. That's the leverage I do have ... I guarantee you that the federal taxpayer is not going to fund their roads and bridges and their systems when they are putting illegals on the roads."

We’re preparing for future dry months and droughts while protecting our water supply for communities, farms, and ecosystems across the state.

Why does Trump want Greenland? “National security.”

Why should Trump’s ballroom vanity project proceed? “National security.”

Why is Trump killing the wind energy industry? “National security.”

Why does Trump hate the New York Times? “National security.”

The pattern is ... not subtle.
For the White House, ‘national security’ is becoming the answer to every question
Donald Trump and his team have a go-to tactic intended to shut down debate over their goals. It's not working.

I hope it's clear to everyone by now that Trump's play over and over again is to yell "National Security!" and pretend as though that gives him the right to act like a dictator

Hey guys, check this out:
The Epstein files on the DOJ website allow you to highlight the redacted text, copy it, and paste it into another document, which reveals what was hidden. You can also press Ctrl+F and search for “Trump ” (with a space) to see his name appear more than 600 times. #OpDeathEaters

Wow. Do we think Bondi and Blanche have lost control over their rancid cover up?
DOJ briefly uploaded this letter from Jeff Epstein to serial child molester Larry Nassar:

"Our president shares our love of young, nubile girls. When a young beauty walked by he loved to 'grab snatch,' whereas we ended up snatching grub in the mess halls of the system."

And here’s a free link to the NYT piece on the 60 Minutes disaster.

Bari Weiss thinks CBS reporters can’t get Stephen Miller to talk to them because they don’t have his phone number.

And she doesn’t know how to use a dictionary.
