Overnight this Talon Air ICE flight landed in Liberia, a known third-country removal “host,” though it is unclear if this was a TCR or a removal of Liberian nationals. Passengers onboard were shackled at the ankles and wrists attached to a waist chain for at least 14 hours.

RFK Jr. likes to claim that the current measles outbreak isn’t his fault. Nobody here will be surprised to hear that he is lying again. Under his “leadership”, the CDC didn’t respond to a request to validate a test that could diagnose cases faster. They said they had other priorities.

C.D.C. Ignored Request From States to Validate a New Measles Test

The agency replied two months later, saying it had “competing priorities,” officials from a coalition of Western states said.

Nobel economist calls for consequences to Trumpworld’s latest 'treason'

Every member of Congress needs to see this ad. The fact that we’ve reached this point should terrify everyone.

I'm a doctor and a dad. I rebuilt Detroit's health department, led Wayne County's Department of Health, Human and Veterans Services. We put glasses on kids, took on corporate polluters, eliminated medical debt. It just shouldn't be this hard to get by in the richest country in the world.

🚨 WOW! Brett Meiselas absolutely RIPS into Trump: "This is someone impeached for an extortion scheme. And now he's extorting the American people." "He is a PREDATOR. He is now being a predator against the American people."

Brett Meiselas: This is why you don’t put a criminal into office in the first place. This is why we arrest criminals. This is why they go to prison, so that they can’t commit more crimes. Instead, we put a fraudster into office. What do you think he’s going to do? He’s going to commit fraud.

Well, well, well. Republicans are discovering their own voters don’t appreciate giant data centers being pushed into their communities. One voter says the whole community is ready to break ranks. How’s that corporate love affair working out? #RepublicansLoveDataCenters #momsky#sheshed

Once Russia gets a solid foothold on the melting Arctic, they won't give it up without a fight.

For more than 40 years, the U.S. Arctic Research Commission has advised Congress and the president on what to study in the far north. Trump appointed a venture capitalist and MAGA influencer with no formal science background — and ties to Russia — as its chair.

Threats. Fear based religions don't always produce a soul that's fearful. Nevada. Maricopa found 8, Nevada 0. Put me in jail for someone else's oath to claim to be a citizen? It's like jailing a bartender who checked a valid-looking ID, when the government agency that issued the ID made the mistake.

Election officials & poll workers must be able to work without intimidation. Threats like “if you violate federal election law, I will hunt you down & prosecute you” have no place in our elections. Democracy depends on people making it work. vote411.org @aclu.org @lwv.org @lwvva.bsky.social

The guy who made his fortune by giving Alzheimer’s patients and their families false hope just tried to exploit the sex abuse his opponent suffered as a child for his own political gain. Republicans are a Mad Libs of depraved cruelty and moral degeneracy. Just horrible people.
