A lot of things happened. Here are some of the things. This is TPM’s Morning Memo. Sign up for the email version. What Will Judge Xinis Do Now? The slo-mo constitutional clash in the case of Kilmar Abrego Garcia inched forward with a new filing overnight in which his attorneys are now seeking sanctions against the Trump…
Gonna guess the Ft. Bragg rally was disturbing, not distributed.
And Frist!!!
Apropos of nothing, and because I found the jpeg, and also because headlines elsewhere state that Israel is gearing up to attack Iran, since Bibi nearly lost a vote of confidence…
Remember these days?
“In another wrongful deportation case, the Trump administration claimed a “perfect storm of errors” led it to deport Jordin Melgar-Salmeron to El Salvador on May 7”
Ah, the old “we are idiots hoping to be morons” excuse.
Big question: how does anyone bring the DOJ to heel when they are openly flipping off the courts? Can Congress impeach Bondi and Patel? What can anyone do about Homan?
Am I crazy, but at a minimum, as a lawyer, isn’t Pam Bondi guilty of unprofessional conduct? Isn’t there a code of ethics?
Re Dhillion requesting Colorado election data …
I remain skeptical about the assertions of this Substacker (see link), but I’ll be keeping an eye on the case. Thiel and Leo add up to nothing good.
I suspect more than a few judges are asking themselves that question particularly since the current Republican congress has made it clear they ain’t going to impeach anyone (unless its a Democrat).
I was gonna guess disgusting
Not with this congress plus you need 67 votes in the senate to convict & remove from office. The Trump gang knows this and have no accountability as long as they kiss the ring of their dear leader.

It angers me when I see these rioters trying to pull barricades out of the hands of police officers and shoving police officers to try and grab the barricades and break the perimeter … I can tell you that if they try to do that in Mobile, Alabama, the orthopedic hand surgeons will have one hell of a weekend fixing hands. That barricade can become a weapon.”–Mobile County, Alabama Sheriff Paul Burch, commenting on this weekend’s planned “No Kings” rally
Newsom isn’t letting up. “Not the same person … just four years ago.”
and he’s putting people’s lives at risk."
The Trump DOJ fired two more people who worked on Special Counsel Jack Smith’s team investigating, including a non-lawyer member of the support staff,
Merrick Garland must be so proud.
It’s not as much that they do it, it’s that they do it with contempt. They are in charge, and anyone opposing them is an enemy.
The worst of humanity.
Abrego Garcia is playing a little smash-mouth there. Probably what it will take
Even at the height of Vietnam, I have never felt this despondent about the future of our country. And I have never been this angry over the apathy and clueless ignorance of the majority of Americans. When I was laughing at All in the Family in the 70s, I never guessed that Archie Bunker would become president.
There are so many truly horrible things happening I find my mind shutting down. Gaza alone is enough to give nightmares.
The Four Horsemen are having a parade and selling meme coins.
From ABC news
“We will celebrate a spectacular military parade in Washington, D.C., like no other,” Trump said on his social media site last week, touting a parade that’s “gonna be better and bigger than any parade we’ve ever had in this country.”
