James Talarico: They’re scared of the movement we are building. They’re gonna throw everything they have at us.

They’re gonna call me a β€˜radical leftist.’
They’re going to call me a β€˜fake Christian.’
They’ll call us a threat.

The only truth is β€” we are a threat to their corrupt system.

Donald Trump owes Illinoisans $8,679,261,600.

That’s $1,700 owed to every household.

I’m demanding Congress end his illegal tariffs, rein in this lawless President, and deliver for working families.

Who could possibly have foreseen that war on Iran would (a) make Iran retaliate by closing the strait of Hormuz, which (b) could disrupt world oil markets, enriching Russia and penalizing most everyone else?

Who, indeed, except EVERYONE WHO HAS EVER THOUGHT FOR ONE MINUTE about the situation.

The Federal Government has not
demonstrated a strong likelihood of success on the merits or β€œserious legal questions” coupled with a balance of hardships tipping decidedly in its favor. Any harm from the investigation- specific disqualification is abstract at best, whereas granting a stay would reinstate an official who acted without lawful authority -- a clear injury to the State Government. The public interest likewise favors ensuring that governmental power is exercised only by officials with lawful authority. Each factor, and all four taken together, weigh against granting a stay.

Another defeat for another unconstitutionally appointed Trump DOJ prosecutor:

Ex-Trump campaign lawyer John Sarcone will remain disqualified as U.S. Attorney for Albany, and his subpoenas to Letitia James' office will stay quashed.

He's not likely to succeed on appeal, a judge finds.

"Macrohard or Digital Optimus is a joint xAI-Tesla project, coming as part of Tesla’s investment agreement with xAI. 

Grok is the master conductor/navigator with deep understanding of the world to direct digital Optimus, which is processing and actioning the past 5 secs of real-time computer screen video and keyboard/mouse actions. Grok is like a much more advanced and sophisticated version of turn-by-turn navigation software. 

You can think of it as Digital Optimus AI being System 1 (instinctive part of the mind) and Grok being System 2. (thinking part of the mind). 

This will run very competitively on the super low cost Tesla AI4 ($650) paired with relatively frugal use of the much more expensive xAI Nvidia hardware. And it will be the only real-time smart AI system. This is a big deal. 

In principle, it is capable of emulating the function of entire companies. That is why the program is called MACROHARD, a funny reference to Microsoft. 

No other company can yet do this."

For nearly two months, Miguel Gusart has looked at an empty chair in his Spanish classroom at the Sam Houston Math, Science and Technology Center every day, confused.

"I just don't agree with the 50 daysβ€”he's just kind of stuck there and I don't understand."

DHS terminates Camp East Montana operations contract, hires new provider The Department of Homeland Security terminated the contract for Camp East Montana in El Paso, Texas, hiring a new provider to improve conditions.

ICE confirms that the infamous Camp East Montana will NOT be shut down. Instead, they're giving the contract wholly to Amentum, previously the subcontractor for Acquisition Logistics, the tiny VA military contractor which inexplicably got a $1.2 billion contract.

To emphasize: Trump's Board of Immigration Appeals (I call it that because they purged almost everyone else) is saying that even people who are 100% certain to get a green card if the government just waits a few years should instead be ordered deported because there will be an "uncertain" wait time.

In 1990, when Congress created a protection for migrant children subject to abuse, it didn't anticipate backlogs would get bad enough that beneficiaries would wait years for a visa, and so never thought to explicitly bar deportation for winners.

Today the BIA greenlit deportation in that situation.
