Yesterday, I pleaded not guilty to the charges that Trump’s DOJ has hit me with in federal court.

This administration is targeting me because they can see that I’ve spoken out against them and will continue to stand up to them.

There sure is a lot of missing evidence when it comes to DHS.
An interesting tidbit in the joint status report filed in the Broadview ICE facility case today:

ICE says video from inside the facility "between October 19, 2025, and October 31, 2025, has been irretrievably destroyed" and can't be produced in discovery.

The Epstein emails make clear how little powerful people care about victimizing girls.

There's also this NYT story on a 17 year-old girl (allegedly) victimized by Matt Gaetz. The girl turned to sex work to afford braces. She also lived in a homeless shelter.

Here's a fun fact for you: Charles Drew, a Black man, is the "father of the blood bank." He figured out how to store, ship and transfuse blood.

But he resigned from the Red Cross because they insisted on "segregating" blood by race.

@chrislhayes.bsky.social, for some of us, this was never about the optics of making healthcare an issue.

This was about preventing a premium spike for 20 million Americans.

The private insurance system is broken.

This is the time we need to be screaming from the rooftops:

I just walked out of federal court where I pleaded NOT GUILTY to the charges against me.

I will continue to stand up to authoritarianism and call this out for what it is: a political prosecution.

In 2024, Tesla reported a profit of $7.1B but paid no corporate income tax—and it's legal. Corporations are forever telling the IRS their profits are low, even as they tell Wall Street that their profits are high.

Both Trump terms have been one business tax cut after another. trib.al/K4p0SVR
