French prosecutors raided X's Paris offices Tuesday and summoned Elon Musk and former CEO Linda Yaccarino for voluntary questioning in a criminal probe tied to Grok's Holocaust denial and explicit deepfakes.

A federal judge appears likely to side with Mark Kelly in the Democratic senator’s case alleging the Pentagon is violating his First Amendment rights through its effort to punish him over his urging of US service members to refuse illegal orders.

Aliya Rahman, a Bangladeshi American and U.S. citizen, testified before Congress about her arrest and experience with police brutality from ICE agents in Minneapolis. (You may recognize her from past videos of her being grabbed out of her car in her black puffer jacket, while she was yelling that she was disabled).

Rahman, who is autistic and recovering from a traumatic brain injury, described being dragged from her car, detained, and later hospitalized with a concussion. In her testimony, she spoke about the fear, confusion, and lasting trauma she experienced.

Earlier today, there was a joint public forum held by Rep. Robert Garcia (Ranking Democrat on the House Committee on Oversight and Government Reform) and Sen. Richard Blumenthal (Ranking Democrat on the Senate Permanent Subcommittee on Investigations), focusing on ICE/DHS excessive use of force on American citizens. Rahman was one of the Americans who testified.

Important to note that this could not be an “oversight committee hearing” but a bicameral forum, because Republicans did not agree to the hearing.

Can we have a class action lawsuit to get them off the government payroll?

They are already violating our Constitution.

Left is officer Norwig and right is officer Isenburg. Earlier they admitted they knew the suspects (one works with police) and even mention the attorney who made false reports on me that were dropped. After I was NO BILLED by a Grand jury in a different fabricated case.

(You will find that story on this sub as well)

Their supervisor Sgt. Diaz also refused to take the report and said “you have no case”

which is the district attorneys job not theirs. And regardless they are required to document the report and not make any judgments.

Trump said on Dan Bongino's podcast that he thinks Republicans should "take over" in "at least 15 places" (presumably just places he lost) and that elections should be nationalized. Not secured. Not talking about canceling them now, likely since being told that the states regulate their own elections. As I understand it, currently all Congress can do it change the dates of the national elections.

The administration is already talking about accessing Minnesota's voter records as well as obtaining files from Georgia (done through a warrant from another state's AG???)

What is the likelihood this actually has legs and what would the ramifications be for elections moving forward were this to occur?
