I am not understanding why a district court is not considering a lawsuit aimed at getting ICE out of Minnesota, like what happened in Oregon and Illinois.

Trump and his horrid people are the enemy. We have to defeat them in the midterms.

Benjamin Netanyahu is a monster. He is monster for his actions, and he is a monster for his reasons.

He isn't doing this for the hostages. He isn't even doing this for revenge or because he wants Gaza. He doesn't CARE about any of that.

He's doing this to stay prime minister.

Only in America can an arsonist be torching the Constitution and the media can't stop blaming Joe Biden for everything.

Column | Judged by the content of their tattoos and the color of their skin. President Trump has tasked his administration with making the country see the world through a haze of fear, distrust and scorn.

Hickenlooper, Bennet give Colorado the nation’s biggest pro-Trump skew in Senate votes β€’ Colorado Newsline Sen. Hickenlooper has been the Democratic caucus’ number one outlier in voting with Trump's agenda almost twice as often as would be expected.

Why are so many Colorado Democrats frustrated with John Hickenlooper and Michael Bennet?

Data from 155 Senate votes in 2025 offers an answer: They're voting like swing-state senators while representing an electorate that's now bluer than Illinois or New Jersey.

One of the defining feelings in American life, for decades now, is elites doing plainly criminal shit and nothing at all happening as a result. It is deranging in a way that virtually nothing else is. Media fixates on perceived street lawlessness but shit like this matters much more in my opinion.

Just going to say that accidentally adding @jeffreygoldberg.bsky.social isn’t the main story: it’s how we *know* the story, which is:
1) not following OPSEC on any front
2) airstrikes as messaging
3) appalling disdain for our European allies
4) incompetence and stupidity

It's critical for everyone to remember what an Executive Order is. It is the President communicating orders to members of the executive branch. Policies to pursue, actions to take, etc. They are not laws. They are not close to being laws. They are formalized memos to employees. That's all.

Totally agree with this. Flying a person to a third country that they may never have been to, directly into a prison where they are going to be forced to do hard labor, is not a deportation; it's something else entirely.
