Eh, it's the same desperation he continually evinced for the Tara Reade accusations to be anything other than the Russian active measure they obviously were...
350,000 peoples’ lives hang in the balance. A majority entered the U.S. legally and have never been in violation of any immigration law. They’ve had to go through multiple background checks. And yet they’re hanging on by a thread, even though the situation in Haiti hasn’t gotten any better.
It doesn’t matter whether the rate of global warming is increasing. It’ll never cease to amaze me that people don’t care that it’s happening at all. It should be the most alarming thing ever.
Markwayne Mullin, perched atop his big boy booster box, ready to debate.
But atop that secret secret police, he'll finally be able to reach the light switch!
I don't think you can fully understand how this fucks over Jamaica, without understanding Cuba medical interventionism.
There is a legal provision in immigration law that someone married to a US citizen can stay in the US while there visa is pending. Immigration officials have long recognized it to allow residency during the wait time. The DHS has just stopped following this part of the law.
I don't get why there's been no substantive pushback from @oversightdemocrats.bsky.social that the EFTA makes zero allowance for DOJ's withholding the production of purportedly duplicate files.
Let’s talk about Graham Platner’s Big Lie, finally. In 2009, at the height of the Gulf War, the Marines barred him from active duty. Platner claims it was his forearm tattoos. But his one forbidden tattoo was the Nazi symbol on his chest. He knew - and he left the Marines rather than give it up. 1/

Though perhaps less embarrassing for people of grift?
Congress could, and should, ban this. Impose the same rule nationwide as some states already have: if an incumbent doesn't file for reelection by the deadline, the window to file gets extended a week or two.
Statement from Christopher Parente, attorney for Chicago's Marimar Martinez:
"Everyone involved in the spreading of lies about Marimar Martinez is out of their job. Now it is time for the FBI to do their job and investigate."
BREAKING NYT:
Lindsey Halligan, the ex-U.S. attorney in the Eastern District of Virginia who brought criminal cases against Trump's enemies over the objections of career prosecutors, is under investigation by Florida's bar association, according to a letter the organization sent last month.
As a sort of Senate floor epilogue to @craigunger.bsky.social 's "American Kompromat," @whitehouse.senate.gov lays out the decades of intelligence, arms, and sex trafficking connections that link Jeffrey Epstein, Donald Trump, and Russian organized crime/intelligence services.

Jon Tester still my favorite Senator I've ever had.
Yeah, this clip will certainly be shown as evidence at the trials.

They killed 180 children and their teachers in a double-tap strike on a school. The girls were 7 to 12 years old.
Gosh if that readily apparent discrepancy hasn't represented an obviously compromising national security vulnerability for the past 25 or so years (hi, Mike Flynn 👋)
Trump plays Reek to Putin's Ramsey, Helsinki 2018.
Who could've ever seen this coming?
