Breaking: The Trump-appointed Judge Aileen Cannon has permanently blocked the release of special counsel Jack Smith's report on the classified documents case — saying releasing the report would be unfair to Trump and his co-defendants.
Former ICE lawyer Ryan Schwank: “I received secretive orders to teach new cadets to violate the Constitution.”
Hey so if CBS airs the state of the union, don’t they have to offer equal time to his opponents? Can we bank that time and save it for later?
The U.S. women's hockey gold medal-winning team has politely declined an invitation from President Donald Trump to attend his State of the Union address on Tuesday.
Call me crazy, but I don’t think a guy who’s placed bounties on our soldiers, repeatedly meddled in our elections, hacked our security infrastructure, installed a useful idiot in the WH and sworn to bring down the United States…should be taken at his word.

Trump's brain flits wildly from Mamdani to shoveling snow to having a conversation with a woman in the audience who has bad eyes. He claims he "gave her a lot of money to get her eyes fixed." This event is totally off the rails.
If there’s one thing the ICE invasion has taught us, it’s that police don’t protect us.
In city after city, and town after town, local law enforcement has *supported* ICE operations.
So, what do you do when you’re in crisis?
Do not call the cops.

aged poorly
Most Republicans in Congress have done nothing to stop him. They’ve stood by while he raises costs and refused to stand up for the American people.

“I heard the officer say ‘that ain’t shit’.”
NASHVILLE — ICE shatter a car window in front of a newborn, refuse to look at man’s license & work visa… drag him out of his car, hit him, mock him for being Guatemalan (he’s from Mexico), laugh when he begs to say goodbye.
We will likely be at war within the week. It won't stop a single election. It won't distract from the Epstein files or the many other horrors going on in our country. It's just going to get a bunch more people killed.
U.S. Rep. Robert Garcia (D-California) speaking to reporters
Rep Robert Garcia: “Annie Farmer is a courageous survivor of Epstein’s abuse. I’ve invited Annie to the State of the Union so she can join other survivors & remind the President of his refusal to release all the Epstein files
I’ll be at the People’s State of the Union and tell her story”
GOOD FOR AOC ❤️💙❤️

The worst part about the Kash video is just how much of a DORK he looked like.
Like a guy who for the first time was at a party with the cool kids and trying too hard
Senator @CoryBooker’s decision to help confirm Kushner’s criminal father is aging about as well as expected — he was just banned from their government after failing to show up when summoned for meddling in their domestic affairs
Imagine that. Liars, all.

Elizabeth Warren: "This one is to me not even open or arguable. How would the US government keep money that the Supreme Court said it did not legally collect from American businesses, that it did not legally take away from American families that ultimately paid this?"
Trump is insane!
U.S. Women's Hockey Team DECLINES tRUMPSTEIN'S invite after degrading 'joke' 👏
A MAN WHO RAPED LITTLE GIRLS MAKES DISGUSTING JOKES ABOUT WOMEN
“And we have to — I must tell you — we’re going to have to bring the women’s team,” said tRumpstein, who chuckled AS THE AMERICAN MEN BURST INTO LAUGHTER 🤬
Ouch.
BREAKING
Former ICE agent:
On my first day training new cadets, I received secretive orders to teach them to violate the Constitution by entering homes without a judicial warrant.
Gallego: "They're going and racially profiling people and rounding up Americans until they can prove their citizenship. That money came from kicking millions and millions of Americans off Medicaid. It was the same bill. They cut Medicaid to expand ICE."
Donald Trump is the biggest threat to US national security.
Laws should be passed that invalidate presidential candidates who can not pass a security clearance, or have been convicted of a felony.
