The American people deserve to know the truth—did Tom Homan accept a bribe from undercover FBI agents or not?

Despite what the government claims, his personal interests are not more important than the American people.
The Trump-Vance admin claims it closed its investigation into border czar Tom Homan allegedly accepting a $50k bribe – yet it refuses to confirm the existence of records related to the investigation.

Our case proves the government is continuing to stonewall, and we will keep fighting for the truth.
No one is above the law. The public deserves transparency & accountability from government leaders. We'll be in court to get answers.

“He raped me.”

“Donald J Trump had raped her along with Jeffrey Epstein.”

“She was found with her head ‘blown off’… there was no way it was a suicide.”

Now we’re starting to see why Trump was hiding the Epstein files, and it probably gets much worse.

These declines are MASSIVE.

And the comparative silence in media coverage is absolutely DAMNING.

“Why are ppl always so afraid of crime?”

THIS is why. When crime goes up, media trips over itself to report it.

Falls to pre-war (!!) levels? Just CRICKETS.
I count 10 cities in 2025 that are on track to have the fewest murders since at least 1970. Newark is on pace to have the fewest murders since 1956 (though only have data through Oct this year) and San Francisco is on pace to have the fewest murders since 1942.

BREAKING: The Supreme Court upholds a lower court block on Trump’s attempt to send the National Guard to Chicago, ruling the president unlawfully used an archaic statute to federalize hundreds of state troops.

Trump’s cronies at the DOJ were so busy scrubbing the President’s name from the Epstein Files that they forgot to redact some mentions of victims — exposing survivors publicly.

They care more about protecting Trump than protecting victims of sexual abuse.

Politico's report that Amazon was stonewalling the Epstein investigation is one of the more interesting details to come out from the dumps.

kavanaugh not beating the allegations that he’s a dumbass
Brett Kavanaugh (September 2025): The facts and how they relate to the law don’t matter. Assume ICE and other federal forces always act with integrity, always respect rights, and consistently impose minimal burden.

Brett Kavanaugh (December 2025): Should I not have done that? Was that wrong?
Kavanaugh in a footnote in today's opinion says "the officers must not make interior immigration stops or arrests based on race or ethnicity."

This struck me too. As Anne Applebaum doesn’t mention, she wrote a classic history of the Gulag.
The CBS investigation portrays a modern concentration camp, similar to the Soviet GULAG (like CECOT, an acronym): sadistic guards, 24 hour lighting, isolation cells.
Americans once opposed this inhumane system.
The Trump administration sent innocent people there to suffer.

And I think that’s the whole point - to weaken U.S. diplomacy. Trump’s entire presidency seems to be about weakening America. And he’s doing a great job of it. That’s why Putin & the world’s other dictators are smiling.
The Trump administration has ordered nearly 30 career U.S. ambassadors to leave their posts by mid-January — an unprecedented mass recall with no stated reason.
Diplomats warn it will hollow out U.S. foreign policy just as Trump claims he wants diplomacy, not conflict.

This is critically important. Democrats need to pass it if they retake Congress. Trump will veto it. So pass it again. Campaign on it. Given current polling, corruption of the FBI, and the brutality of ICE and BP, there’s no better time to say, “Federal police are not above the law.”
Restoring Bivens rights: one bill "would allow citizens to sue for damages resulting from constitutional violations committed by federal officers," while the other "would create a cause of action against federal law enforcement agencies and police depts for constitutional violations."
These congressmen want to give you the right to sue federal law enforcement for violating your rights
The proposed bills aim to codify a 1971 Supreme Court ruling that allowed individuals to sue the feds for Fourth Amendment violations.

I’m sorry, but blue states need to start finding ways to protest this politicized punishment. Perhaps they could refuse to pay federal employer taxes on state employees, for starters.

With CECOT being in the news, I want to repost this article my wife wrote about our adopted kids' birth father. He finished a prison sentence and was deported to El Salvador and landed in CECOT. If anyone can help with this, please contact me. We're feeling pretty helpless.

Our children's birth father was a shining example of rehabilitation in California. Then he was deported to El Salvador, disappeared from the kids' lives.

For the uninitiated: Each of these case citations contains the volume and page where the case is publicly available. So they're redacting a thing but telling you exactly where you can find it. And mostly, they're redacting an abbreviation for which court the case was in, like “S.D.N.Y.”
I have seen DOJ do some strange redactions before, but this is up there:

New in PN: Make America Weak

"It's become clear that Trump's efforts to sabotage America’s economic, political, and defense relationships with major democracies abroad are part and parcel of 'policies' he’s been pursuing at home — all calculated to make our nation more susceptible to autocracy."
