Abrego Garcia should sue the US government for taking retaliatory action and violating his due process protections. He represents all of us - regardless of citizen or non-citizen status - no one deserves this sort of ongoing selective and vindictive prosecution.

The sheer number of people Trump pardoned — 1,500+ — and the magnitude of violence many (most?) of them committed means it is statistically likely that a fair number will be revidivists, potentially for more egregious crimes. The pardons should be a top story EVERY DAY
Welcome to “justice” in Donald Trump’s America.

The official investigation into the January 6 riots concluded Trump “summoned the mob, assembled the mob, and lit the flame of this attack" in an effort to halt the peaceful transfer of power.

No billion dollar lawsuit can change reality.

The BBC should call this convicted criminal’s bluff.

By sending us $2,000 to give to billionaire insurance CEOs, and by tripling the interest we pay to mortgage companies while he continues to limit what we can write off, he's effectively looting the treasury and using us a mules to launder the stolen money; funneling it to the wealthy.
QUINTANILLA: What's more likely -- a $2,000 tariff rebate check or a 50 year mortgage?

HASSETT: They're both really good ideas

Below are two videos showing the White House vs Waldorf Astoria renovations. Can someone knowledgable about the relevant trades breakdown what it took to do each one? What was the process? How much human skill and craftsmanship were involved?

@jkbjournalist.bsky.social on Ghislaine Maxwell: "I've covered prisons for a very long time and, these kinds of things just don't happen... The only time I've seen it happen in prison is when somebody's being paid off or if you have some information on someone that they don't want to get out."

“The decision has been widely criticized, w/ sources suggesting the cancellation was due to her gender and is now forcing her into retirement due to the Navy's ‘up or out’ policy. This officer was expected to become the first woman in the role and the first woman to command in Naval Special Warfare”
A female Navy officer was up for a historic title. Then Hegseth stepped in
There were just two women in the Navy Special Warfare combat crew as of the 2024 budget year

The USA is crazy!

The Trump regime sends daily emails and texts about “illegals” to anyone:

1) To bolster hatred against browns.

2) To bolster hatred about unfairness.

3) To bolster fascism

4) To bolster hatred about their pet excuse of the moment.

Knowing that the regime lies all the time.

This fucking idiot. 🙄

"Pure brass" is not a thing because brass is an alloy, not a pure element. By definition, an alloy is a mixture of two or more elements. Brass is primarily composed of copper and zinc.

SO, THERE IS NO SUCH THING AS "PURE BRASS," DONNIE! YOU'RE A FREAKING DUMBASS!

More fun with Trumpy numbers.

He's floated sending $2,000 checks to every household, "except rich ones," whatever that means, financed by tariff revenues.

It would cost $265 billion. Tariff revenue since Liberation Day has totaled $151 billion.

Bit of a shortfall.
