That’s the first eight from South Carolina!
Jim Clyburn has written a terrific book about the first eight Black Americans to serve in Congress and the parallels to today. I was honored to have a discussion with him about it. Watch it here.

American Gestapo
In California, a mother of eight who has lived in the country for 40 years was deported just one day after she reported sexual harassment by an ICE contractor on her case. This action was taken despite a judge’s order prohibiting it.

Adam, unfortunately I think you know the answer. They are all moral cowards.
Genuine question: has any GOP member of house or senate spoken out about the Dept of defense and Hegseth threatening sen Mark Kelly with lawfare? Beyond disturbing
Especially any veterans?
Shame on all those who stay silent

Worth reiterating that what Trump tried to pull off with Halligan would, if successful, neutralize the Constitution’s appointments clause and allow him to install an endless series of insane and unqualified prosecutors without a single Senate vote. slate.com/news-and-pol...

And not a word from them when a monster who helped finance Hamas gets a corrupt bargain from Trump
MAGA Jews spent so much time conflating left wing criticism of Israel’s actions with antisemitism that they overlooked the significant danger that the MAGA coalition poses for Jews who live in America. What did they expect from a party that de-humanizes other minority groups?

Great urgency in reviewing Epstein files. Then silence for three months. Then the July 6 “nothing to see here” memo.
Wonder what they found that led to panicked silence then attempted cover up?

The docs also reveal the number of hours the FBI devoted to the project, which required some agents to work nights and weekends. The FBI paid personnel $851,344 in overtime for working on the Epstein files between March 17 and March 22.

TRUMP: If you look at Somalia, they are taking over Minnesota.
REPORTER: What do the Somalians have to do with this Afghan guy who shot the National Guard members?
TRUMP: Ah, nothing. But Somalians have caused a lot of trouble. They're ripping us off.

I believe this is what lawyers would call consciousness of guilt.
On the horrific news that Pete Hegseth ordered the killing of boat bombing survivors, remember: The Trump Murder Memo "authorizing" the strikes preemptively clears those carrying them out. That's unusual. And we still haven't heard from the commander who resigned:
