Judge, U.S. Attorney spar at contempt hearing over immigration court violations The hearing was called to determine whether a federal judge will hold the U.S. government in civil or criminal contempt.

During his second contempt hearing this week, Minnesota’s top federal prosecutor acknowledged β€œmistakes that have been made.”

Federal judges have demanded an explanation for numerous failures by the U.S. government to return property, including IDs and passports, to detainees upon their release.

It Wasn't Fascism All Along Conservatism was a distinct ideology but it is dead and it is not coming back.

Important and correct by @polphilpod.bsky.social Toby Buckle at @liberalcurrents.com Liberal Currents.

The "all conservatism was always already Trumpist and fascist" line is ultimately a way to normalize Trump, and should be resisted.

Virginia lawmakers on Monday passed a proposal that would require schools, if they teach students about the violent attack on the U.S. Capitol on Jan. 6, 2021, to relay the facts of what actually happened, without including misinformation that the 2020 presidential election was stolen or that the attack was just a peaceful protest.

My university received a few years ago the promise of the largest single gift to a public university in U.S. history. It was equivalent to 12 hours of bombing Iran.

Kalshi employees "kind of understand that without the tweets and the streamers and all of the social-media stuff that the traders do for them, usually just for free, their marketing would be a lot harder," said Jack Campion, 20, a junior at the University of Wisconsin-Madison and a Kalshi affiliate.
In September, Kalshi briefly signed up a 15-year-old videogame streamer who goes by vertid online to promote its brand on X as an affiliate.
A week later, Kalshi ended the partnership.
"Yo brother, legal team confirmed that we can't work with minors rn," a Kalshi employee wrote to the user in messages reviewed by the Journal. "Kinda sad tbh."

The Most Chilling Detail in the U.S. Attack on an Iranian Naval Ship The Iranian warship was taking part in an international exercise with many other countriesβ€”including the United States.

This is a chilling crime. A shame on our country. The Iranian ship was unarmed. The US knew this. The sailors were murdered by our navy, and the survivors were left to die at sea.

Markwayne Mullin is the same guy that hid on Jan. 6th same guy that tried to grab a sign from Rep. Al Green and the same guy that lost his temper and challenged someone to fight outside a congressional hearing. Yep still at the bottom of the barrel.

I'll also note that we still appear to be missing a ton of pages from this woman's file. There were at least *53 pages* missing (that we know about) and we still don't seem to have all of them β€” specifically the FBI's contemporaneous notes for these interviews

Every D who votes for Mullins cares more about the feelings of their fascist buddies than the safety of you and me.

one thing that’s changed in the House (it started with the Tea Party when some real freaks started getting elected) is that there’s less cross-aisle camaraderie because people across the aisle are the kind of people you cross the street to avoid

the Senate needs to learn this lesson
