Posse Comitatus? Who's she?

So good. Rep. Jake Auchincloss just flipped the entire #Fox script on Will Cain in real time & stayed calm & collected the entire time.

This is how you go on Fox & deliver the facts and our message to them. A masterclass on #communication.

Sen Ossoff: Trump is "selling access for what are effectively pymts directly to him," -contest "an impeachable offense."

Profits by:

Many of the ldrs don't appear to be from the US.

#Trump lied to Time that he was clearly speaking “in jest” when he said he’d end the war in #Ukraine on day one.

Here are *53* times he promised, in a serious context and tone, that he’d have the #war settled in 24 hours or even before he took office:

For me, this is the best image symbolizing what Gen AI actually is. A black box, burning the planet, understood best, paradoxically, through technological means.

What you see here is a thermal image of xAI's Datacenter in Memphis, where 33 methane power generators are burning without permission.

“A Cuban woman living in Tampa who came to the United States in 2019 and is married to a U.S. citizen was abruptly detained by immigration authorities and deported to Cuba on Thursday, leaving behind her one-year-old child. The baby is distressed and does not want to eat. Imagine, they ripped the child from her mother’s arms at the immigration office; the cries of that woman in there could be heard back in Cuba, Valle said of his wife’s desperation at being separated from her daughter.

ICEtapo.

Update. "ERICA is a rescue catalog which preserves over 500,000 Open Access publications originally hosted by the US Department of Education in the #ERIC research repository. ERIC was defunded on the 23 April 2025 and the maintenance contract is set to expire soon, meaning that ERIC is likely to shut down. The PDFs were rescued using the Internet Archive's #WaybackMachine by a volunteer of the #DataRescueProject. When you click on one of the publication ID links, you will be redirected to the archived PDF in the the Wayback Machine. Feel free to host your own copy of ERICA by simply cloning this source code repo, which also includes the metadata for the catalog."

A Trump-nominated judge in Louisiana says he strongly suspects a 2-year-old US citizen was recently deported to Honduras “with no meaningful process.” @npr reports:

@georgetakei Judge told them to go and get the proper warrant. They had an administrative one, signed by ICE, not a judicial one, signed by a Judge. That Judge did nothing wrong at all. I hope whatever judge hears this case tosses it and awards her damages for wrongful arrest as well as putting some manners on the FBI/ICE lot.

Donald Trump never gave a shit about fighting antisemitism,
which is a fact that’s important to state upfront.

By his words and by his actions, nothing the current and former president ever communicated with regard to the Jewish people made us safer
—and none of it was supposed to.

It’s been an obvious power grab from the start, but one to which a broader audience seems to finally be grasping.

“There was no reason for Putin to be shooting missiles into civilian areas, cities and town over the last few days. It makes me think that maybe he doesn’t want to stop the war, he’s just tapping me along.”

— President Trump, quoted by the New York Times.
