There was a multi-year investigation by House Republicans into a pardon Bill Clinton gave to Marc Rich at the end of his presidency. Some guy handed Alina Habba a $50 million "job" and magically got a pardon from Trump and it won't even be remembered by this weekend

** JUST IN ** A New Mexico judge has ordered Meta to pay $25B today (yes, you heard that number correctly) for deceiving users about its data privacy practices (translation - the f*ckers used the data and lied).
New Mexico had sued Meta in 2021 over the whole Cambridge Analytica scandal, saying the social media company had misled users with its public statements about its data privacy (translation: nothing that they said was private, actually was). After a two-week trial, a jury ruled against Meta, saying the company committed 43M violations of consumer protection laws.
Today, Judge Francis J. Mathew of the State District Court in Santa Fe issued the landmark penalty.

Trump said: “When I’m gone, you’re all going to be broke.” Truer words have never been spoken. He has plundered, robbed and bilked the whole country for himself and his family. That’s what disgorgement is all about. Disgorgement—please practice this very fine word.

[Rep. Jamie Raskin @RepRaskin]

In the deepening chaos in the West Bank, the IDF detained several dozen American rabbis and volunteers, including my future Democratic colleague Brad Lander; Mattan Berner-Kadish, who grew up in my district; and at least 31 other American citizens helping Palestinian farmers try to harvest olives in the West Bank under the threat of violence. Meantime, vigilante settlers continue to terrorize Palestinians in the West Bank with scant consequences.

Last week, out-of-control settlers injured an American journalist. Now, the IDF targets volunteers for helping Palestinians harvest olives. The eyes of the world are on the West Bank.

I approve this message.

So @VivekGRamaswamy is now siding with the man who was charged with child sexual abuse—and with that man’s enabling wife—against the victim, who was a little girl at the time.

He is taking the pro-child-rape stand?

What kind of man does this?

Robin Williams warning the US about Donald Trump and his links to underage girls in Miss America Pageants in 2012.

Really should have listened.

I have greatly enjoyed watching America feel the same things I have felt about Vivek Ramaswamy since the fall of 2003

🚨#BREAKING: JD Vance’s Fraud Whistleblower Incentive Program has been flooded with reports of blatant fraud committed by Republicans in the Trump Administration & Congress. Over 97% of reports over the past 24 hours have been against corrupt MAGA politicians.

Another embarrassment.

[Joe @electionsjoe]

I'm sorry, but my number one Gov race is now Ohio. We cannot allow Vivek to win. Mocking a victim of childhood abuse is the most disgusting, evil thing I have ever seen. And he's being open about it too. I am genuinely appalled by every single thing that has come out.

[David Frum @davidfrum]

I don't believe that Musk turned off Starlink to Ukraine at his own sole initiative. I believe Trump is implicated up to his painted eyebrows. But if it should be true that Musk did it - then Starlink and Space X must be nationalized by the US government immediately.

BREAKING:

ALBUQUERQUE, N.M. (AP) — New Mexico sues Jeffrey Epstein's attorney and accountant, accusing them of concealing his sex trafficking operation.

[Dr. Amy Acton @amyactonoh]

A governor’s only priority should be making life better for Ohioans. That’s why I sold all of my individual stocks over 6 months ago so that no Ohioan would ever have to worry about where my priorities lie.

Meanwhile, Vivek Ramaswamy has refused to sell his holdings in data centers and other industries Ohio’s governor will be responsible for regulating. Ramaswamy is only out for himself. The longer he refuses to put Ohioans before his own stock portfolio, the clearer that becomes.

[Senator Thom Tillis @SenThomTillis]

WTF, Steve? Look up the definition of “humanitarian.” What an embarrassing and outrageous thing to say. You should go back to Ukraine and ask the families of the children Putin has kidnapped and murdered whether they agree your friend Putin is a “humanitarian.”

[Mayor Zohran Kwame Mamdani @NYCMayor]

Today, Brad Lander, rabbis, and other New Yorkers accompanied Palestinian farmers during the olive harvest. For that, they were detained by the Israeli government. 

Harvesting olives is not illegal. The occupation is.

I am thankful that Brad has been released. But other New Yorkers remain detained, and they must be released immediately.

The same Israeli government detaining them has committed a horrific genocide against Palestinians, killing more than 74,000 people over the last few years alone. 

The detention of these New Yorkers must end. The occupation must end. The genocide must end.

Churchill could have shortened WW2 by years if he had just “done a deal” with Hitler. George Washington could have done a deal to end the American Revolution. Zelenskyy is in good company.

My heart breaks for Zelensky and the Ukrainian people. They are fighting so bravely to save their country and here comes musk with his bullshit.
