In early 2025, I assumed the Trump regime would delete the Department of Justice’s press releases and other statements related to more than 1,000 Jan. 6 cases. So I downloaded them. We’ve now made them available to the public with a search tool. They can’t erase history. jan6memoryproject.org

OK my kid's in-progress Killer Sweaters list is here if you want to see what's making their cut. Reminder that not every sweater worn by a killer is, in fact, a killer sweater. It has to be truly great. More importantly, the character has to KILL someone! It's not just good sweaters in movies!

I know Rahm Emanuel. I worked with him for years in the Clinton administration, and then when he was Obama’s chief of staff. Rahm Emanuel represents everything that’s been wrong about the Democratic Party for the last 30+ years. Be warned. https://robertreich.substack.com/p/the-rahm-bomb

1st sign this guy might be in a cult--he says he'd do it all over again (even though he barely saw his 4 yr old for 11 months). 2nd sign--he's monetizing his failure. That he's getting free advertising from the man who won't let his delivery drivers take bathroom breaks is the cherry on a moldy cake
Sad excuse for journalism: Big profile of DOGE lord doesn’t say a word about all the damage he did. And it was not an “ill fated cost-cutting effort.” It was a malignant, catastrophic attack on the government and its workers by arrogant and ignorant assholes. www.washingtonpost.com/technology/2...

“Elizabeth Holmes tests boundaries of fact”; “Bonnie & Clyde test boundaries of bank lending”; “Jeffrey Dahmer tests boundaries of tasteful cuisine.” See, it’s easy once you get the hang of it. I can does a WSJ headline, too!
Bo French, a candidate for Texas’ railroad commissioner, tests boundaries of political speech as both parties struggle to define what’s off limits. Read more in today’s WSJ Politics Newsletter: on.wsj.com/3SI6qZe

After Pretti was killed, Savageford, who is Asian-American, said she was taken to a warehouse near the Whipple detention center where immigrants were being detained. She was strip-searched, including by male agents who Cook told HuffPost on Friday were “touching her privates.”

Also, if you live in a part of the country that is not welcoming to you, because you're LGBTQ+ or because you're an immigrant or because you're being denied reproductive health care or for any other reason related to who you are, please consider coming to Portland.
Michael Cohen, mob lawyer and rat: threatened Epstein survivors, threatened the media, threatened companies Trump stiffed for money owed, threatened to kill some family’s dog, perjured himself to protect his criminal boss. Loathesome.
Probably, yes. Not that ago, Cohen was on MSNBC, every day. Have heard audio recordings of him, all mobbed up, threatening people. Brutal & terrifying. For real. Can only imagine if he actually did threaten "Katie Johnson" & her family, along with other children his boss raped, brutalized.
