Eighty-five percent of the people granted pardons or clemency this year by President Trump are white, according to a new report compiled by Rep. Ayanna Pressley, a vocal advocate for criminal justice reform.
85% of people given federal pardons or clemency this year are white, House lawmaker’s report says

Reminder that the entire Hunter Biden investigation was predicated on sex workers investigation.

Now Gary Shapley, who championed that investigation by badly misrepresenting it, is in a senior IRS position.
The “no tax on tips” rule as part of the Big Beautiful Bill doesn’t apply to pornographic content.

This means when someone with an OnlyFans files their taxes and expects their tips not to be taxed, the IRS needs to watch their content to decide if it’s porn or not. 🤦🏾‍♂️
IRS to watch OnlyFans content in 'no tax on tips' dispute
Agents from the IRS will need to watch OnlyFans content to determine if it meets the “no tax on tips law.”

Duckworth: "It is a war crime. It's illegal. No matter how you put it, it's all illegal. I've been shot down behind enemy lines. Under the laws of war, you are supposed to help render aid to that individual ... you're not allowed to go back in and kill them."

ICE detained a US citizen who was originally from Somalia.

They grabbed her because they didn’t like her hijab.

She says they sexually assaulted her and said things like “what are you hiding under your hijab”

She was held for 24 hours.

A US citizen. No one is safe.

Funny how 7-10 million of us managed to gather all over the country without a single violent incident that was not instigated by MAGA. But the minute a few hundred of us gather to protest ICE we turn into violent rioters who need to be pepper sprayed?

Smells like, complete and utter bullshit.

@handsoffnyc.bsky.social is training thousands of New Yorkers on how to protect their neighbors from ICE. Today, they are currently running two trainings in Brooklyn and the Bronx, both of which hit capacity because interest was so high.

This is the way, y’all—we protect each other, and we know it.
