Just a reminder that Trump’s former criminal defense attorney turned Dep. AG Todd Blanche transferred Ghislaine Maxwell to a Club Fed where she now plays with puppies and goes to yoga classes.

The function of consumer-facing "A.i." is to enrich billionaires by deploying faux sci fi woo woo bullshit to normalize crappy, dangerous products that worsen and sometimes even end people's lives.

A federal judge just ruled CA can ban ICE from wearing masks. The court also ruled the law must include state police, not just federal & local.

Today I introduced SB 1004 to add state police back so that we can enforce CA’s mask ban against ICE, CBP, and all law enforcement.

Abolish ICE. Shut down Dilley. Defund and shut down CoreCivic.
This is 18-mo-old Amalia waving to me when she was detained.

She was hospitalized with a respiratory infection while at ICE’s Dilley facility for immigrant families.

She’s one of dozens of detainees who I spoke to via video and phone calls, letters and an in-person visit. 🧵1/

Secretary Howard Lutnick lied to the country about his ties to Epstein.

Now we learned that they were in business together.

He has no business being our Commerce Secretary.

He should resign.

Per DHS own stats, 86% of people ICE has arrested are far from “the worst of the worst.”

They’re arresting anyone they want. And DHS wants BILLION$ more to torture people everywhere, to keep us from voting Republicans out!

“Worst of the Worst” are Trump & his Administration
Less than 14% of those arrested by ICE in Trump's 1st year back in office had violent criminal records, document shows
The official DHS statistics, which had not been previously reported, provide the most detailed look yet into who ICE has arrested during the Trump administration's crackdown.

Supremes taking their sweet time to rule on the dotards use of tariffs as weapon when the power to tariff still rests solely with the Congress. That decision and the Epstein files are long, long overdue.

And Supreme Corrupt Court, WHERE IS YOUR TARIFF DECISION?

A 5th grader could read the plainly written language in our constitution restricting tariff authority to CONGRESS and hand-calligraphied their decision in Crayola by now.

The Supreme Court once ruled on a presidential election in 36 hours.
It’s been 3 months since they heard Trump’s tariff case.

While they stall, the rest of us pay.

This delay IS a decision.

Don't hold your breath. I've been waiting and waiting on the tariff decision on a case they heard months ago, and then I realized there wasn't going to be one. The evil6 need to be impeached at first chance.

ICE has now spent over half a BILLION dollars just on purchasing warehouses around the country to convert into detention camps.

If these mega-camps are utilized to the full capacity ICE intends, they'll be the largest prisons in the country, with little real oversight. www.ajc.com/politics/202...

This is such an embarrassing interview. Good for CNBC for asking the most straightforward questions.

CNBC: You mean like taking off their masks and having a badge that shows who they are?

STEIL: Well, they're known to their supervisors
