The author of a controversial memo from centrist group Searchlight telling Democrats to abandon the slogan “Abolish ICE” is a consultant for WestExec, a shadow lobbyist for corporations in the defense, surveillance, & immigration enforcement industries. prospect.org/2026/01/19/aut…

Wow. Not only did Democrats okay an ICE funding increase, they specifically worked it out so that their votes won't matter for final passage. In other words they gave away the small bit of leverage they actually had, for a show vote. That's legitimately evil.

A billionaire known as “Bitcoin Jesus” was under indictment for massive criminal tax fraud and very likely going to prison. Then, he hired a “Friend of Trump” and the criminal charges disappeared. How did they do it? Avi Asher-Schapiro and I spent months getting the inside story.

As insane as this sounds, it’s true: Pam Bondi sent Minnesota officials a letter today saying ICE would leave the state if Minnesota turns over its voter files to the Trump Administration. They’re openly using state violence as a bargaining chip to seize election infrastructure.

Since July, I've tracked at least 2,300 cases in which federal judges have ruled ICE has illegally detained people without bond or due process. This is one that stands out: storage.courtlistener.com/recap/gov.usco…

Another ruling just yesterday in Minnesota: A federal judge calls it "particularly craven" that ICE transfered "a nursing refugee mother" out of state. Ta Eh Doh Lah was admitted as a refugee from Myanmar in 2024, has no criminal history and a 5-month-old. storage.courtlistener.com/recap/gov.usco…

SCOOP: Nursing home firms donated $4.8M to Trump's super PAC in Aug-Sept. Their executives got a lunch in Aug. at Trump's golf club where they asked him to revoke a rule to increase staffing to prevent patient neglect. His administration revoked the rule nytimes.com/2026/01/27/us/…

Days before ICE ambushed Marimar Martinez and shot her five times, DHS circulated a memo to agents with her name and face saying to be on the lookout for her for “doxxing” agents. They know what they’re asking agents to do.

During the 2008 financial crisis, millions of people lost their jobs and millions of people lost their homes. But in the end, the federal government spent nearly $7 billion bailing out Jeffrey Epstein‘s secret offshore company. Here, exclusively, is the story of how that

A year ago Elon Musk tweeted that he had fed USAID "into the wood chipper." It was an act that killed people. We don't know most of their names, but we know the 27 below. Much like with Renee Good + Alex Pretti, we should remember these lives taken by the cruel men who lead us

May have found some pertinent info on co-conspirators by cross-referencing dates/info in the partially redacted Epstein indictment with the flight logs. Anyone know who this “Paul Hal…” is?

We found that Jeff Bezos paid *zero* taxes in 2007 and 2011. In fact, he reported making so little in 2011 that he even claimed and received a $4,000 tax credit for his children. This is how he did it (published 2021): propublica.org/article/the-se…

In 2010, Aaron Swartz downloaded 4.8 million articles from JSTOR. We don't know why - it may have been to make them freely available online (if so, he never did, as he was caught). He made no money from this, and there is no suggestion he intended to. He was indicted on 13
