Major update: CBS tried to silence a key Epstein interview. I did the interview instead. Meanwhile, the New Mexico DOJ is taking Trump to court over Epstein and the Truth Commission released its preliminary report. Trump is racing to stop the BBC from getting discovery. And more.

Good evening everyone.

It was over for Max Miller politically when he said his wife couldn’t have been abused because she offered to make him dinner 6 days later. He may not have known it when he said it, but that was the end. You have to be a sick bastard to come up with that as your defense.

Immigration agents' abuses are rampant, but ACLU state affiliates across the country are coordinating an all-out effort to hold them accountable.

A map of the U.S. with 17 states highlighted in red on a black background and text reading "ACLU affiliates filed 54 claims from 17 states and DC to hold the Trump administration accountable for harms caused by federal agents."Black graphic reading: 15 people in 7 states experienced abuses in ICE detention; 13 people in 5 states and DC experienced retaliation for exercising their First Amendment rights; 26 people in 10 states and DC were either wrongfully or violently arrested by federal law enforcement; 32 U.S. citizens in 10 states and DC were harmed by federal law enforcement, including 14 people who were racially profiled and unlawfully arrested

LA should cut ties with Flock Safety. Cities across the country are canceling their Flock contracts over the risks its license plate readers pose to privacy, civil liberties, and immigrant communities. LAPD is doing the opposite: renegotiating a surveillance network that Angelenos never agreed to.

BREAKING: Senate Republicans blocked Democrats' proposal to end Donald Trump's IRS sweetheart deal. This deal gives him FULL IMMUNITY from audits on tax returns he's filed. It's corruption on steroids.

"A concentration camp, in its most basic definition, is a place where a targeted civilian population, not necessarily accused of a crime, is detained and at least some of their basic rights are suspended," writes @jwashing.bsky.social. "That’s precisely what’s happening in the United States today."

Don’t call them ICE detention centers. Call them camps | John Washington

I’ve spent a decade reporting on immigration enforcement. The word ‘camp’ best captures the political function of these facilities

Uber Eats and DoorDash hid tip buttons and set default tips below 10%. As a result, tips for delivery workers fell 79%.  In January, we made these corporations change their apps — and in the past six months, we've put $104 million back in delivery workers' pockets.  This is only the beginning.

Dr. Fauci is a hero. He really is. He helped guide America thru a mass death event. Millions more could have died but they did not, thanks to him. Everyone over 70 owes him a debt. It is disgusting that we live in a country that not only dishonors him but actively smears his good name.

Thanks again to all the Trump voters who handcuffed all of us to an infinitely corrupt, gleefully cruel, and monumentally incompetent narcissist whose one and only concern on this Earth has always been and will always be whatever is best for him in any given moment.
