Note: Judge Tenheim initially ordered these memos to be filed under seal, meaning the public wouldn't have access to them.

Law Dork moved to intervene on Tuesday, asking, among other steps, for the sealing to be lifted.

The judge lifted the sealing order on Thursday.

So, the memos are now public.

Had my colonoscopy today.

When they asked if I wanted to remove my Green Lantern cap I said:

“It will protect me by activating my power ring if someone tries to harvest my organs.”

They nodded understanding and/or fear and/or confusion.

Soon after I was safely in cryogenic colo-sleep.

Another shooting case falls apart (this time ICE, not CBP).

These are the Venezuelans that ICE excused shooting by claiming they beat him w/shovels.

PBS remains by far the gold standard in covering the economy.

As their corporate competitors stuck to easy administration-friendly talking points to discuss yesterday’s jobs report, PBS showed how to do it right (and in just 30 seconds if needed).

Ending this operation is not enough.

We need justice and accountability. That starts with independent investigations into the murders of Renee Good and Alex Pretti, economic restitution for businesses impacted, abolishing ICE, and the impeachment of Kristi Noem.

NEW: Don Lemon is set to be arraigned this week on charges tied to a protest at a church.

The case has raised press freedom concerns. But the constitutional provision most likely to derail the indictment isn’t the First Amendment—it’s the Commerce Clause.

Someone was abducted at 10 AM by ICE on Central Ave. Their coworker says they’ve lived here for over 20 years, are documented, and have 3 kids who were born here.

Don’t be fooled by headlines when they’ve been lying to us the whole time. We still need you out patrolling until every agent is gone.

Attorney General Pam Bondi has the power to hold the men in the Epstein files accountable. 

But she’s doing the opposite. She’s protecting them.
