Republicans in disarray.
Jeffries: "Republicans are in the midst of an ongoing civil war. Trump is fighting with MTG. Johnson and Thune are fighting with each other. Mills and Mace are fighting with each other. House Rs are strongly disagreeing with Senate Rs. The whole thing on the other side of the aisle is a mess."

Just saw this today. This is a transparent attempt to KILL DUE PROCESS by lying about the job of immigration judge and stacking the deck through hiring only bloodthirsty lawyers who want to deport people.
This comes after they pushed out over 100 judges deemed too likely to grant relief.

DOJ is now recruiting for immigration judges by calling them “deportation judges.”
That’s seems really bad.

Remarkable: Rep Chrissy Houlahan, one of the Dems that Trump called for executing, tells me her office literally filled out a Capitol Police threat report that listed "the president" as the person making the threat.

Good Morning with some good news
The ridiculous trump administration states they're backing off SNAP RECIPIENTS TO REAPPLY
After all states put SNAP recipients under strict guidelines they don't just give them away especially to undocumented

Trump admin backs off idea to force SNAP users to reapply
Officials will rely on state standards that are already in place to ensure eligibility, despite USDA chief Brooke Rollins’ comments last week.

Remember: The oligarchs who control our economy and democracy seek to divide us so they can become more powerful.
They want us to turn on each other so we don't look up and see where all the wealth and power have gone.
Don't fall for it.

These devices automatically record the plates of passing vehicles and feed that data into an algorithm designed to flag travel patterns the government considers “suspicious.” Drivers have no way of knowing when or why they were flagged.

The U.S. Border Patrol is quietly operating a nationwide monitoring program that tracks the movements of millions of American drivers, far beyond the border itself.
This “predictive intelligence” system uses a vast network of license-plate-scanning cameras positioned across the country.

When Border Patrol showed up across Charlotte, parents and neighbors rushed to Berryhill to meet kids at the bus stop. They stood watch, linked arms, and made one thing clear: if the city gets targeted, its children will not face it alone.

Jeffries: I think Rick Scott has some history with medicaid fraud in the state of Florida. So he's no expert on health care. We ain't going to be lectured by Rick Scott about anything, but certainly not affordable health care.

Instead of a global leader in science, the CDC has devolved into “a propaganda machine for RFK Jr.'s fixed, immutable, science-resistant theories,” said @pauloffit.bsky.social.
