ICYMI last night, DHS is currently being fined every day for contempt of court until it coughs up the cell phone records of officers involved in immigration stops in L.A. last year that looked like racial profiling rather than reasonable cause. short thread -->

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.

Notice DOJ doesn't talk about its efforts to obtain state voter files anymore. They are 0-20 in those cases and today is the beginning of the quiet period -- states can no longer do systematic removals of names from the voter rolls. TLDR: We won!🥳

💧 U.S. data-center water use could quadruple by 2028. Cities are starting to say no. Facilities used 17B gallons in 2023; a large campus can draw 5M gallons a day, per Kansas Health Institute. Tucson rejected an $AMZN-linked project over water concerns.

On a private call, Todd Blanche said his goal was to make the "Dobbs decision permanent in every single state." This isn’t just a confirmation vote anymore—it’s a roll-call vote on which Senators endorse BANNING abortion in ALL 50 states. I’m voting NO.

ICE changed its policies to hide deaths of detained individuals and keep the number of publicly-reported fatalities as low as possible. By "releasing" people from their custody right before they die, ICE avoids having to report or investigate these deaths - and they hide the truth from the public.

Texans, including former State Rep. Lon Burnam, were arrested for defending our voting rights. Tarrant County leaders tried to slash 𝟭𝟰𝟬 𝗽𝗼𝗹𝗹𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝗹𝗼𝗰𝗮𝘁𝗶𝗼𝗻𝘀 𝘁𝗼𝗱𝗮𝘆. That’s nearly HALF of the election day polling locations! Texans showed up, fought back, and forced them to back down—for now.

Man it's so funny when James Carville threatens to leave the Democratic party, like oh no, now the party might have candidates who are actually popular with their constituents and have popular policy positions and win elections what are we going to do noooo don't

A state that can't feed itself isn't truly secure. The Greedy Few shipped our food system overseas and left Texans paying higher prices at the grocery store. Let's put Texas farmers back to work and make food affordable again.

BREAKING: The New Mexico Department of Justice has sued Acting AG Todd Blanche and the DOJ, requesting the court for access to unredacted Epstein-related investigative files that the DOJ has been withholding.
