Hungary told JD Vance they hate him but love his family. Let’s talk about it.

Hope you join.

A deadly bacterial disease is returning, doctors warn, as vaccination rates fall Hib once killed 1,000 children a year, permanently disabling many more. Doctors who've never seen the disease say the comeback is changing the way they practice medicine.

“The last night I was a pediatric resident, a child came in with Hib and promptly died by the next day. I didn’t work for 50 years to have everything destroyed by one man.”

-Dr. Kathryn Edwards, Vanderbilt University

This is what RFK Jr. and the anti-vaxxers have wrought.

“No new wars” was just another lie. www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ix6H...

Just a reminder that unless you are carrying a passport or a notarized birth certificate, you don't have proof of citizenship. The new driver's licenses are not proof. Non-citizens can get a driver's license,

That means any ICE agent can detain you at will.

Enjoy your flight.

hope you will join!

Reporting on Iran from Inside | Tim Mak Joins Stuart Stevens There's a news blackout in Iran. But enterprising journalists are still bringing us vital reporting about the war.

There's a news blackout in Iran but there is still a few— a very few who are doing this brave work. Tim Mak joined @stuartpstevens.bsky.social while reporting on Iran from inside

Trump just put in charge of Iran a guy considered to be a hardliner *before* we killed his father, mother, and wife. We helped cement his rule by blowing up a girls elementary school, scorching their skies, and cutting off their water. We should expect retaliation—and blame Republicans for it.

Tarrio is, quite literally, a pardoned terrorist.

Pretty amazing that comms person at FBI called my @ms.now colleague @kendilanian-nbc.bsky.social a liar and demand a correction only for Kash to post a photo from the locker room

In the way Charlie Starkweather and Caril Ann Fugate fell in love on a murder spree, Lewandowski and Kristi Noem were fated for one another. Which may be unfair. Starkweather and Fugate killed two dogs, while Kristi Noem has only copped to murdering one.

The last time I saw Pam Bondi, she was drunk and dragging some embarrassed male on to a campaign bus. Dressed in what one female staffer referred to as “stripper formal,” she fell asleep on the bus and everyone tried to
ignore her snoring.

This isn’t complicated. If
local law enforcement saw a TSA agent exposing himself in front of passengers, he’d be arrested and prosecuted.

When ICE thugs break the law, they have no more protected status than the TSA agent.

Arrest and prosecute ICE agents who break the law.

Mike Johnson Is Very Annoyed By the Fourth Amendment’s Existence For a constitutional lawyer, the House Speaker sounds alarmingly unfamiliar with how the Fourth Amendment’s warrant requirement works.

I feel like I am going a little bit crazy listening to Democratic lawmakers "demand" that ICE get judicial warrants before it arrests people in their homes, given that the Fourth Amendment has imposed this requirement on law enforcement officers for, oh, roughly 250 years now

Rep. Lieu: “Howard Lutnick must resign… The Epstein Files new release shows that not only did Howard Lutnick lie to the American people, he went into business with Jeffrey Epstein, he visited Epstein Island, and Howard Lutnick did this knowing how evil Epstein was.”

Bret Baier’s DC House Sells for Record $25 Million—in Cash - Washingtonian Howard Lutnick, the commerce secretary pick, buys the Foxhall estate as team Trump rolls into town.

Somehow, in the attention to Howard Lutnick's lies about Epstein and his general toadying, attention has drifted away from his buying a house in DC for $25 million. In cash. From ... Brett Baier of Trump state media, aka Fox.

Bloomington police announce arrests in sex trafficking bust: "Rashad Johnson out of Maple Grove. This is the most disturbing arrest that we've had here. He is a backgrounder for ICE, Homeland Security, and federal agencies."

My colleague got into Trump's sprawling family detention camp, which is full of toddlers, kids, & teens.

- Kids have cut themselves or talked about suicide

-There's worms & mold in food

-300 kids have been held for 30+ days, far longer court settlement allows

ICE Agents Can’t Hide Behind their Masks Forever | Stuart Stevens LIVE YouTube video by Lincoln Square

youtu.be/GYn1HzgevW8 #stuartstevens

Wearing a mask to hide government membership is like kids covering their eyes in hide-and-seek.

Those ICE agents will live with their choices, and if justice returns, they’ll have to face their values.

One of these never lost an election. The other one never won an election.

Opinion | Now We Know What All Those People Got From Epstein

Great piece by @mollyjongfast.bsky.social

Now We Know What All Those People Got From Epstein www.nytimes.com/2026/02/07/o...

ICE Agents Can’t Hide Behind their Masks Forever From the Stasi to the Gestapo, history tells us that the names of the state's henchmen always come to light.

The bottom line is that there will come a time when the identities and records of every ICE employee become public knowledge.

Just for the record , the men’s Italian cross country skiing relay team from Turin just featured in the Milan opening ceremonies looking like idiots in absurd white outfits were doped out of their minds when they “won” the Gold Medal.
#WinterOlympics

In the organized crime and sex trafficking capitol of Western world, a short walk from where Mussolini was hung by his heels with his mistress, they are dedicating the opening of the Winter Olympics to “harmony.”

Brilliant.

I’d bet a lot that this fat ICE thug has a history of abuse against women.

We need all the ICE thugs names.

In this time of national trauma, we hear many calls for an end to the divisions that are shredding the national fabric. It all sounds lovely. Who could argue that Americans need to do more to understand each other and reach a consensus?

Well, I could.

In all seriousness, how can it be that the official now in charge in Minnesota was caught by the FBI on video taking $50,000 to steer government business, and walking out with the money, which we still haven't seen. How is he still working in Administration, not to mention not behind bars?

I grew up with Alex Pretti The kind-hearted ICU nurse shot by ICE agents was my childhood best friend.

Stuart Stevens Breaks Down Minnesota | "Stephen Miller & Kristi Noem Must Be Prosecuted" YouTube video by Lincoln Square

Stuart Stevens makes an excellent argument for the states to start prosecuting Noem and Miller under state law NOW. By doing so, they could never be pardoned by Trump.
