Jenifer Lewis said it best: 35.9 million people sat out 2024, and we don’t let that shit happen again. Not this time. Not with 90 days on the clock and everything on the line. Speak out, knock louder, make it impossible to ignore. It’s on all of us to flip it all blue. #BlueWaveIn90Days

I have a theory regarding Flynn. Back in 2013 he met w/the then head of the GRU, his Russian counterpart, in Russia. At that time it was publicly known that Flynn was disgruntled, unhappy with DOD leadership, & w/Obama who had made him head of the DIA because he'd been very public about it. 1/

🧵🧵🧵 A scandal that hardly anyone knows happened is Trump giving traitor Michael Flynn $1.25 million in your tax money. Flynn, Trump’s 1st national security adviser, pleaded guilty twice to lying to the FBI but was pardoned by Trump. He sued, alleging "weaponization," and DOJ paid him in March. 1/4🧵

Three years ago, the Biden White House attacked me for saying "Democrats should be fighting on every possible front — filing a flurry of lawsuits and exerting public pressure through the media." "The president's team wants to be more selective in picking legal fights." I feel sadly vindicated.

Fed. judge holds DHS in civil contempt of court for refusing "intentionally and not in good faith" to provide plaintiffs with phone images they intend to use to prove DHS was racially profiling people arrested in Los Angeles without reasonable suspicion. Order from July 28, unsealed today.

B. Defendants’ Noncompliance Is Intentional And Not In Good Faith. Having found that Defendants are in violation of the January 16 Forensic Imaging Order, the burden now shifts to Defendants to show that they were unable to comply. Affordable Media, 179 F.3d at 1239 (9th Cir. 1999). They fail to make that showing. Upon review of the parties’ submissions and counsel’s representations at the hearing, it does not appear that Defendants’ noncompliance is due to an inability to comply. Instead, the clear and convincing evidence shows that Defendants have acted intentionally and not in good faith.

U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services refuses to turn over records about the Trump-Vance admin’s efforts to use and share citizenship data in connection with election-related activities. We’re suing to get at the truth of the admin's election overreach ahead of the 2026 midterms.

Yesterday in Humboldt Park, ICE goons pulled weapons on teenage activists Ben and Sam Luhmann. Just a month prior one had shoved 16-year-old Sam to the ground for legally filming their activities in Joliet, IL. The courage of these brothers is unmatched.
