As the Trump regime sues LA officials for not disqualifying 20,000 people DHS has labeled as non-citizens based upon their screening tool, it is good to remember that DHS used to same tool to identify over 15,000 non-citizen voters in Nevada. Complete checks revealed that ALL of them are citizens.

nytimes.comFrom 16,000 to 185 to Zero: Trump’s Claims of Illegal Voting in Nevada Fizzle.It was the Trump administration’s latest stumble in its effort to find proof of widespread noncitizen voting, despite decades of evidence that it is extremely rare.

John Roberts: lifetime job. No term limit. No election. The man who decided a president can’t be prosecuted for official acts. Here’s the one thing he doesn’t control: Congress can impeach him. Most people have no idea. Spread it.

I resigned from ExxonMobil today. I spent the last three years doing fossil fuel extraction research at both BP and ExxonMobil. Neither company is acting responsibly. They are racing to maximize extraction while the window to act closes, and gambling with our lives. More below.

Leadership would focus on what they agree on given our shared goals. A real leader would not focus on gotcha phraseology. This is a bullshit scaremongering and shows a profound misunderstanding of where a major part of the Dem base is today.

WELKER: Do democratic socialists belong in the Dem Party? JEFFRIES: What I can say is I do not support defunding the police, I do not support open borders, I do not support abolishing the Senate. We're focused on actually solving the problems hard-working American taxpayer want us to solve ...

The Trump administration has authorized the construction of a data center on public land, scrapping a previously-approved solar energy project. The data center will consume more energy than the entire neighboring community and was approved without public input.

Every Trump scandal competes with the next one. That’s the point. If everything is unprecedented, eventually nothing feels shocking. Never confuse exhaustion with normal. #BlueWaveIn100Days

Last year, Vance Boelter shot and killed a Democratic state rep and her husband. He was sentenced this week to consecutive life sentences. Maybe now’s a good time for some accountability for the Republicans who peddled disgusting conspiracy theories about the slayings?

Any journalist that sat through the White House Correspondents Dinner should be ashamed of themselves. They have done a deep disservice to the truth and the American people. They're disgusting.

Intentionally lying to the American public is the "deep state" MAGA and Republicans have been stupidly screaming about for years and now that it's actually happening, they don't give a damn.

I worry that they are moving so fast—and that the media has been so bizarrely silent—that the “new global order” (Pax Silica) will be in place (& impossible to unwind) before the public knows anything about it. Thread. #PaxSilica 1/

😳 Jacob Helberg—who left his position as an advisor at *Palantir* to join the Trump State Dept—spearheads the international “Pax Silica” initiative. In May, he discussed it w/ Palantir co-founder Joe Lonsdale: “Jacob Helberg on Pax Silica & the New Global Order in the AI Age” 1/

$100 to any reporter who asks him, "so you're saying Capitol Police should've shot dead everyone who breached the Capitol on January 6?"

Homan on people getting killed by ICE: "It comes down to one simple fact -- these people failed to comply with law enforcement ... all they had to do is comply. If they did, they'd be alive today."

This free documentary is a MUST SEE. Shuffling people around the US, away from their attorneys and family, away from their Habeas Corpus filings, on a merry-go-round of extremely expensive tax-payer funded charter flights, is a key part of the ICE death machine and hardly anyone is talking about it.

If you have *real* evidence of election fraud, you file a lawsuit. But if you are a pathetic sore loser who wants desperately to believe any fiction that excuses your actual loss, you go on TV where, unlike in court, you won’t be held accountable for your brazen and ridiculous lies.

Every ballot leaves a paper trail. Every count gets audited. Every result gets certified by officials from both parties. That’s not a broken system — that’s a system built to be checked. Trust the process, not the primetime speech. #LoserTrumpsElectionLies

The common thread to any and all Trump nominees is a willingness to put Trump ahead of the constitution. It’s literally the only job requirement. Nothing else matters. All these hearings are just Dems getting them to admit it, while Republicans show they don’t care.

🚨 ⚽️ Your daily Futbol reminder that FIFA concocted a "peace prize" for a convicted felon who calls his opponents "vermin", some World Cup participants “shithole countries”, and is named over 38,000 times in the Epstein files. —And that FIFA would hate if you reposted this.

Seems the real problem centrist democrats are facing right now is the people are being very clear that they want leaders who will solve their biggest problems, and centrist democrats really don't want to solve their biggest problems and hate the people for wanting that. It's a real pickle for them.
