UPDATE: DOJ says that all but 4 of the unaccompanied migrant children have been returned to ORR custody. Transfer of the remaining four children is expected at approximately 11:00 p.m.
MORE: Sparkle Sooknanan is still awake -- and she wants a fourth status report from DOJ. The judge orders the government to update her when all putative class members have been returned to ORR custody.
His day will come for January 6. He’s never too old to go to jail.

Dear God
On Wednesday, as firefighters worked to contain a 9,000-acre blaze in western Washington's forests, federal officials escorted 44 of those firefighters off the premises, arresting two of them on charges of illegally entering the country.
What the….. what is wrong with Republicans? They would rather have people’s homes and the people in them get burned?
Republicans are the lowest of the low. How can’t they be worried about children getting shot and killed. Genes that turn them into monsters?
WATCH: “‘Thoughts & prayers’ means we’re doing nothing— they’re worried about a Cracker Barrel logo and children are getting shot.” @jwilliamj8.bsky.social & the #Jaam crew rip the empty response to another avoidable tragedy. Failing our kids. Full @thejaampod.bsky.social: youtu.be/C4IhbpU0ugA?...
Good idea

How mean!
Yes they are illegal.
President Donald Trump released a furious rant on his Truth Social platform after the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Federal Circuit upheld a lower court ruling that his tariff policies are illegal.
A federal court in Washington, D.C. has blocked President Donald Trump's plan to expand an expedited deportation process to immigrants who have been in the country longer than two years.
Amid the stalled peace talks kicked off by President Donald Trump to end the Russo-Ukraine War, a number of Trump officials are now casting blame elsewhere in a move that has left some of America's allies "puzzled," Axios reported Saturday.
The dozen or so high-ranking Department of Justice attorneys who were reassigned to the DOJ's Sanctuary Cities Enforcement working group have all quit, the Washington Post is reporting on Saturday.
A big victory for Americorps Members, volunteers & communities as $200 million appropriated by Congress is finally released, overthrowing the attempt by Trump to confiscate & redirect it. Thanks to @oagmaryland.bsky.social Maryland Anthony Brown & other state AGs for fighting hard for our people.
Our Labor Day MD-08 Local Heroes are Craig Becker & Ann Rosenthal. When he was General Counsel at AFL-CIO, Craig launched the Rise Up: Legal Defense Network, matching federal workers sacked by Trump & DOGE with free legal support & direction. Ann is a volunteer in the project.
American federalism goes to work. As RFK Jr. heads down the road of more measles, more COVID-19 and more flu, public health states must develop our own strategies to stay safe.
RFK and the wacky zealots who surround him are endangering the nation’s health and future well being. MRNA vaccines are safe and effective - full stop. Kennedy must resign if the nation is to be safe.

Last January, a source shared evidence with me that DOGE was installing devices on govt servers to upload data to the cloud. Some hosts were FOREIGN. On Friday, a whistleblower resigned and came forward to share the same. Listen to what we found in January: www.muellershewrote.com/p/a-fork-in-...

Lots of right-wing political pastors and charlatans about to get rich from FEMA money.

It’s gotten to the point that I don’t even like sending my kids to school anymore. We don’t have to live like this.

I hope people realize how absolutely fucked this situation is. This isn’t normal. People are resigning all over the place because the government is mishandling our data, ruining our public health services, and generally making Americans less safe.
The damage this man has done is incalculable.
Trump putting an election denier in charge of elections is like hiring a bank robber to guard the vault. We see you, Donnie.
This is good, very, very good.
There must be some Republicans that think he was the wrong choice.
This was all knowable. Every damn Republican who confirmed this wrecking ball has blood on his or her hands.
We were warned by Washington, Lincoln and others. Now we must oppose this authoritarian regime, firmly voice our commitment to the Constitution and rule of law—and assert what it means to be American. www.americaamerica.news/p/its-villai...

What a cursed sentence (gift link) “The A.I. companies selected to oversee the program would have a strong financial incentive to deny claims. Medicare plans to pay them a share of the savings generated from rejections.”
🚨 We need to pay attention to what’s happening at the CDC. This isn’t bureaucratic drama — it’s a political takeover of our public health agency. The fallout will hit vaccines, outbreaks, and crisis response. Our health is on the line. We can’t look away.

Trump is feathering his own nest while seniors are going to be kicked off Medicare. This is one of the worst things he’s done.
If you're on Medicare, Trump's gonna let AI decide if you get care or not.

ICE’s unchecked power has turned into lawless overreach—abductions by masked agents, denial of due process, secret police tactics. Democratic leaders can stop this, but only if we demand it: bit.ly/45Umbi3
So MAGAs are admitting they lie.
Republican Congressman Mark Alford responds to angry constituents at his town hall: "If you didn't want to hear my lies, why did you come here?"
Guess the GOP figured out this wasn't a winning slogan
Democrats passed budget bills that would have secured SEPTA funding and kept Pennsylvania’s transit system running smoothly. Republicans blocked them. DNC Vice Chair Malcolm Kenyatta is pushing back.

Venous insufficiency doesn’t happen overnight and he was supposed to be marked in good health by his doctor. This has been going on for years. However there looks like there is something else.
New in PN: Alert the media — the WH is lying about Trump's health "Something's clearly up & the official explanations don’t make sense. That’s not a shock given that Trump is a liar surrounded by toadies who surrendered their shame long ago. But it’s past time for reporters to ask some questions."
Nailed it again. 👏 👏👏
Lowell: Also look at what Trump said on the 26th. He said if Cook did right thing, we'd have "proper" board -- meaning one that lowers rates. If you understand what he's trying to do, if you've seen what his admin does, almost any of them will make an allegation about anyone.
HAPPENING NOW: Hello from the media room in DC district court, where Judge Jia Cobb is set to hear argument on Lisa Cook's motion for a temporary restraining order to block her removal from the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve. I'm here for @lawfaremedia.org. Follow along ⬇️🧵
Only 25% of independents are satisfied with the way things are going in the U.S. right now.
Yes it's important to name things accurately.
Dr. Demetre Daskalakis, who resigned from the CDC, revealed that RFK Jr. has NEVER been briefed by CDC experts on measles, flu, or Covid: “No one from my center has ever briefed him on any of those topics…He’s getting his information from somewhere”
Is it the worm speaking though?
Health Secretary Robert F Kennedy Jr has come under fire after claiming that he can diagnose children just by looking at them.
I've kept saying one of the most dangerous MAGA Horsemen is RFK JR due to the damage he will do to America's public health infrastructure and his promotion of reckless, baseless, and destructive anti-vaxx conspiracies. You're seeing it play out now, folks. Should be bigger news.

Dear God
President Trump campaigned on the promise to target immigrants with criminal convictions for deportation. New data shows his immigration crackdown has included thousands more people in the D.C. area who have no criminal charges.
I did promise that Republican states that capitulate to Trump's demands to illegally gerrymander their maps will be sued. And history shows I never bluff and usually win. I also said that there are only two types of GOP officials -- proud MAGA and scared MAGA. That is true.
This what the American taxpayer is funding!

RULE ABOUT AMERICAN FLAGS: If you burn the fabric part, you're looking at jail. But it you use the pole part to assault a police officer, you get a presidential pardon, praise, and some cash.

🚨Border Patrol arrested two firefighters who were actively fighting a wildfire at the time. When the other members of the crew asked for a chance to say goodbye, a Border Patrol agent told the crew member “you need to get the f*ck out of here. I’m going to make you leave.”
Our President keeps insisting prices are going to drop by 1400%, 1000%, or some other number that’s mathematically impossible. That he can’t do simple math isn’t the problem, it’s that he’s lying to America while things are getting more expensive because of his bad choices.
