I am suing the Attorney General of the United States.

In my opinion, the judge in my case has been strategically laying the foundation for contempt.
A federal judge says Todd Blanche isn't sufficiently following the court's orders in a case concerning the Epstein files and gave Blanche a deadline to comply or face the possibility of contempt charges.

The order stems from the lawsuit brought by Katie Phang.
Judge Warns Blanche of Possible Contempt Charges Over Epstein Files
The Justice Department hasn’t sufficiently followed a court order to produce documents, the federal judge said.

The situation in Haiti is terrifying. On Sunday, 150 gunmen swept down on a town to kill, rape, loot, and burn. 22 people were executed in a churchyard. 52 were taken hostage.

Stephen Miller mockingly says Haiti is safe and ICE just sent its second deportation flight this month; with kids on board.

We are back. The rescheduled White House Correspondents Dinner is live at the Waldorf Astoria. Your uncredentialed correspondent has returned from her sofa in the Midwest. No press pass. No canapés. Just a dog, a television, and absolutely no filter.

🔹If someone violates the Epstein Transparency Act, they are supposed to be prosecuted by the DOJ

🔹Todd Blanche is the head of the DOJ

🔹Todd Blanche has violated the Epstein Transparency Act

🔹So he has to prosecute himself

Make this make sense

Brava, Kristen Welker! Courage under fure
🚨Trump has a complete MELTDOWN on Meet the Press.

Kristen Welker presses him on his wild California election conspiracies. Trump calls her crooked, calls the press crooked, and throws a tantrum about how unfair everything is.

Then he storms out mid-interview like a toddler who lost at recess. 🍼🤣

A win! A federal judge has temporarily stopped the Trump admin’s attempt to dismantle part of a major U.S. climate research institution. In a preliminary ruling, Judge R. Brooke Jackson blocked plans to remove a key supercomputer from the National Center for Atmospheric Research (NCAR) in CO.

Thomas Massie isn't going quietly:

“Today is the six-month anniversary of the Epstein Transparency Act. We’ve taken out two dozen CEOs, an ambassador, a prince, a prime minister, a minister of culture, that was just six months. I’ve got seven months left in Congress.”

(The US gets little credit.)

Farm workers are clearing the weeds in the roots of green chile plants in Mettler CA. This is a physically demanding task as they are using a mattock - a heavy duty duel head tool - that's used for digging, chopping and breaking up hard soil and clay. #WeFeedYou

Wee little reminder that after Howard Lutnick visited Epstein's island, his nanny's resume was forwarded to Jeffrey Epstein.

"We should also be proud to be part of a movement that doesn’t make light of violent attacks on political opponents. We should be proud to be part of a movement that doesn’t celebrate the death of public servants." Like, uh, Trump does.
