WATCH: The moment the cruel Rep. William Lamberth & Senator Bo Watson bill to block undocumented kids from school passed full House Ed committee last night You can see 10 year-old Emma kneel in front of them in protest. They quickly cut the feed as folks started to chant and yell out.

Pam Bondi's refusal to investigate Trump officials for leaking military strike details reeks of corruption and partisan rot. Her job is to uphold the law, not protect a regime of reckless loyalists. This isn’t justice—it’s cover-up theater by a lawless administration drowning in impunity.

@TonyStark If Marc Elias and other good folks working with him can keep the 🍊 stain’s efforts to remake our election systems tied up in the courts, this bodes well for the midterms.

The #Democrats need to stay on the #SignalGate fiasco with the ruthlessness of #Republicans. #FireHegseth

Waltz, an Army veteran, is missing the fucking point; an unsecure communication platform shouldn’t have been used for that “chat.”

“The senior-level Trump Cabinet member said he took ‘full responsibility’ for the mistake and said Goldberg’s addition was not the fault of a staffer—as President Trump had floated as a possibility — while recognizing that the person he intended to add never joined the chat. Waltz declined to name the individual in question. - Ashleigh Fields

@DemocracyMattersALot To quote #MAGAmoron, "Yu-u-ge, bigley fuck ups. No one does fuck ups better than me!"

@AlliFlowers The guy has more balls than any #republican .

If you want to cut wasteful spending dismantle DOGE and make the US President pay for his flights to Florida, golfing, and charging Secret service to stay at his resort.

They never gave a damn about Palestine, They hate Jews......

Mr. Geier has a bachelor’s degree in biology. He has no knowledge, training or experience in epidemiology or statistical analysis, which is why several of his papers have been retracted. He was disciplined for practicing medicine without a license. And this is who Kennedy chooses to run this study.

"Alien Enemies Act #Deportations: Carefully Orchestrated To Keep Courts In The Dark."

"The Trump admin commenced orchestrating the removals long before Trump invoked the Alien Enemies Act, & did so in a way - seems to have been designed to🚨EVADE JUDICIAL OVERSIGHT."

"It appears to have just grabbed random tattooed Venezuelan who were lawfully awaiting asylum determinations."

Hey DNI Tulsi Gabbard:

Consequences for thee, but not for me?

How does it work when you lie to Congress?

#signalgate

@TonyStark Similar to Republicans picking one judge in Amarillo, Texas to make rulings for the whole country to stop Biden's executive orders, but when Judge Boasberg rules against Trump, it's time for Congress to not only prevent judges from making the same kind of ruling now, but to Trump to try to impeach him and any other judges who dare to cross this admin, and for the Speaker of the House to suggest dissolving whole district courts. AKA rules for thee, not for me.

AWOL #GOP congress critter Kevin Kiley (MAGA-CA) is whining and crying on his blog about Indivisible holding empty chair town halls (because he refuses to hold real ones). And oh, boo hoo, he can't handle all the calls he is getting from the constituents he wants to screw out of #SocialSecurity. They were just supposed to go meekly die I guess.

It's a clown-show security error, of course, but does being able to see someone's Venmo contacts matter?

Sure

as security pros note in this story, it shows lots of soft targets that a malevolent actor could spoof

PayPal password for the US Secretary of Defence, anyone? Oh dear. https://www.spiegel.de/international/world/hegseth-waltz-gabbard-private-data-and-passwords-of-senior-u-s-security-officials-found-online-a-14221f90-e5c2-48e5-bc63-10b705521fb7#ref=rss #Privacy #Security #USA

When Matt Gaetz was video casting via his personal phone from inside the congressional SCIF, that really should have been a clue as to just how little anyone should trust Republicans with national security.
