Bari Weiss, really? Really.
On left:

Bari Weiss: 60 Minutes segment failed to show Government view that CECOT detainees are due judicial review

On right:

Judge Boasberg Dec 22: "The Government itself has not even contested that the detainees who now make up the CECOT class received inadequate process prior to their removal"

Do. Not. Look. Away.

How many of the 60+ people abducted from this workplace found themselves outside the USA? Or landed in countries that they were not born in? Or remain in custody today?
ICE agents illegally break into a woman's bathroom in a NY nutrition bar manufacturing plant. "Pull up your pants," says a male agent. The agents only had a warrant to review employer documents. They didn't have a warrant to search for, detain, or arrest anyone there.

Damn, Bill Clinton just called Trump & Pam Bondi's bluff. Clinton released a statement calling on Bondi to release all of the Epstein files that mention him - including photos.

This is what a president with a spine looks like.

Meanwhile, Trump is having the FBI scrub his name from the files.

Detaining people with no criminal charges.
Then offering cash to make them disappear.

That’s coercion.

But the offshore oil rigs that are polluting our planet and destroying wildlife, and the illegal confiscation of oil tankers by the coast guard posing as pirates is ok? Good to know.

There are plenty of obvious reasons to do this: Nobody under the age of 30 actually uses the site! You're rewarding Elon Musk!

But the most important thing is that some politicians and consultants are stewing in bot-driven, expensive Nazi propaganda, and it's giving them really bad, cruel ideas.
This has always been a Bluesky-first campaign. But as of today, we will no longer be using Twitter. At all.

And I'm calling on other candidates to follow suit.

Bondi’s memo on ‘domestic terrorism’ sparks outcry

"The memo shifts counterterrorism policy from conduct-based criteria toward an ideology-focused framework. It ... prioritize[s] Antifa-related investigations and direct[s] federal grants toward them."

NEW: Todd Blanche, the second-highest official at the DOJ, issued a memo to shut down enforcement against crypto companies while he still held more than $150,000 in crypto investments, ProPublica found.

One expert called it “an obvious conflict of interest.”
