Fellas is it good when the judge has to reiterate you're under penalty of perjury? Status hearing at 5pm Arizona time. Judge wants someone other than the ICE agent to answer his fucking questions about this plane (my interpretation of his order).

HOLY SHIT. In a sworn statement yesterday, an ICE agent told a federal judge that an ICE flight to Equatorial Guinea had been cancelled and so couldn't be used to bring Ahmed Soliman back to the United States. The plane just landed in Equatorial Guinea. prospect.org/2026/10/23/t...

Tomorrow is a closed hearing in the case for Tyler Robinson and Judge Tony Graf has ruled that the livestream will NOT be broadcasted. Reading the court docs now and Robinson’s attorneys are asking for the trial to begin around summer 2029, while prosecutors want the trial to begin in January 2028.

A reminder that “The Great Replacement” was the name of the manifesto of the Christchurch terrorist. That is where Trump and his supporters are at this point; openly endorsing a conspiracy theory championed by a mass murdering terrorist.

Implementing Trump’s “big, beautiful” Medicaid cuts will be a windfall for firms like Deloitte.
