Didn’t realise she was another one too. RW pricks really have taken over the world.
Probably because she mostly acted quite decently and not like a typical right wing nutter. And it's kind of hilarious how in the beginning she was seen as a close ally of Trump while it quickly became obvious that she just wants the best for Italy which means not doing what Trump wants...
Ha good comparison! Expect the undertaker to follow him out to clean pools
What’s funnier than Trump is the fact the he can’t get his sentence out coherently
Release the Einstein Files.
Yeah that has been a known thing for many years yet some folks indeed thought it was a good idea to put her in the position she was. And yet many can't even pass a security clearance for minor civil infractions.
Awfully nice of Bezos to hold this article till she was out of office.
I doubt that’s what happened here. She probably knew it was coming and decided to quit before it published - the sick husband was a convenient excuse for her to avoid the blowback.
Texas anti-ICE protesters convicted of terrorism charges sentenced to at least 50 years in prison
Activists accused of being part of antifa face harsh sentences in case seen as test of Trump’s crackdown on dissenthttps://www.theguardian.com/us-news/2026/jun/23/prairieland-ice-protesters-texas-sentenced
A group of Texas protesters convicted of terrorism charges received unusually harsh sentences of at least 50 years in prison on Tuesday in a closely watched case that was widely seen as a test case of the Trump administration’s efforts to crack down on dissent.
After a three-week jury trial, the nine activists were all found guilty of a slew of criminal charges in March, stemming from a Fourth of July protest at an immigrant detention facility in Alvarado, Texas, south of Fort Worth. The demonstrators arrived late at night with a plan to set off fireworks as part of a noise demonstration to show solidarity with those detained inside. A few of the protesters spontaneously broke off from the main group and vandalized cars in the parking lot, a guard shack, slashed the tires on a government van and broke a security camera. When a police officer arrived on the scene and drew his weapon, one of the activists fired an AR-15 from the woods, hitting the officer in the shoulder. The officer survived.
Benjamin Song, who fired the gun at the police officer, was sentenced to 100 years in prison. Song was convicted of attempted murder of an officer of the United States, as well as firearm and explosives charges. He was also convicted of riot, providing material support to terrorists. He faced anywhere from 20 years to life in prison.
Zachary Evetts, Autumn Hill, Savanna Batten, Elizabeth Soto and Meagan Morris were sentenced to 50 years in prison. Maricela Rueda, another demonstrator, was sentenced to 70 years in prison. All six were convicted of riot, providing material support to terrorist, and explosive charges. Rueda was also convicted of corruptly concealing a document or record.
Evetts, Hill, Morris and Rueda were acquitted on attempted murder and firearms charges.
The sentences handed down on Tuesday were unusually long, said Barbara McQuade, a former federal prosecutor who served as the US attorney for the eastern district of Michigan during the Obama administration.
“Most often, judges will sentence defendants for separate counts concurrently. Here, it appears that the judge stacked the sentences for each count consecutively. I would have expected lengthy sentences here, more in the ballpark at 15 to 25 years, but nothing like 50 to 100 years,” she wrote in an email.
The Trump administration praised the sentences.

They should have just tried to overturn an election.
Didn't know Texas had domestic terrorism laws.
They've gone to federal prison. Does that mean it was federal rather than state charges?
I enjoyed this from the prosecutors in Texas:
"Prosecutors also focused heavily on the cache of guns that many of the defendants owned and some brought to the detention center on 4 July. It is undisputed that all of the firearms were bought legally"
If they'd just done those things on Capitol Hill five years ago they'd be hailed as heroes by MAGA
There are no federal domestic terrorism laws. Weird.
A lot of the reports seem to indicate that Trump's designation of Antifa as a domestic terrorism organisation underpinned the severity of the sentences.
That seems like a huge extension of presidential power over domestic criminal charges.
This is from the Washington Post:
"The investigations stem from the National Security Presidential Memorandum-7, which President Donald Trump issued after the killing of conservative activist Charlie Kirk in September. The memo defined antifa as a “domestic terrorist organization” and directed the Justice Department to “investigate and disrupt networks, entities and organizations that foment political violence.”
Tell me this is real.
HRW disagrees with you. She's an anti-immigration racist who's probably responsible for hundreds, if not thousands of deaths in the Mediterranean. The cherry on top is the criminalisation of ngo's who try to help migrants lost at sea.
Isn’t that from earlier this year? If so I think it ended up being his coattails or somethingTell me this is real.
That's not really my point. I was thinking more about how she appears and talks - there is a massive difference between her and people like Trump, so it's understandable that someone from India didn't put her in the same basket here.
Ha. Very good.
Christ almighty, the SC is on a roll today.
Too much winning.
John Bolton pled guilty today to mishandling classified info. He could face prison time.
Get a load of this fecking cnut...
One of those values included occupying Haiti for 19 years.
I'm sure this message is reaching thousands of Haitians on TPS eagerly awaiting instructions from Megyn Kelly.
So.... Does he think asylum seekers come from. Insane asylums. Did he mistakenly mix up excursions and incursion? Or see and sea, and the hundreds of other things he's heard for the first time and got wrong when repeating it thinking he's clever......
All those have been excused or defended by MAGA....
This one might not be so easy

theyre afraid hes gonna stain their sofa. Prolly forgot his diapersTell me this is real.
Shitholes like Liberty have actual classrooms mocked up as the Supreme Court in order to prepare their fairytalists to go argue insanity like this in it...
The reflecting pool being called the 'Strait of Warm Ooze' got a chuckle out of me
There should be severe consequences for swatting. Should be a fairly simple problem to get rid of.

Isn’t he just referring to passports being issued to people who have become American citizens?
Probably, but the passport with his pic is a limited edition thing, only available at the DC passport facility. So it's unlikely that most new citizens will get one of those.
I am in no way a fan of hierarchal religion but this seems so petty & ignorant...
I feel gross even doing this, but I am actually, kind of??, going to say I get it. They are not losing rank, they just won't have it on their uniform. They will still have their denomination pins (cross/star of david/etc.), but not rank. The "warfighters" reasoning, if that's what Kegsbreath actually said, is nauseating, but they actual implementation seems to be sound.
All of the above is of course based on the one report I read, so if that was wrong then ignore the above.
1984 come to life...
They have the chaplain faith insignia on their hats, the rank tab was necessary for varying reasons. Now, you'll have FGOs saluting CGOs and lower ranked FGOs unknowingly. This is yet another idiotic change from a group of religious nationalists only thinking in their world view.
