From this morning’s conversation with @hcrichardson.bsky.social: civil rights aren’t a small issue, they’re the whole issue.

Joining @chrislhayes.bsky.social on blocking #ToddBlanche nomination. He is unfit and we deserve better.

Jeffrey Epstein survivors, deserve answers, not a photo op. #ToddBlanche met with Ghislane Maxwell, convicted felon, but claimed it was “unlawful to meet with survivors. He made that up. They got “deflection, interruption, and gaslighting.” Maxwell got better t treatment. #BlockBlanche

The corruption is happening in plain sight. Donald Trump Jr.'s investment firm now oversees more than $3B and is raking in profit thanks to his father’s A.I. and defense tech policies.

When we erase the contradictions of our history of slavery and the founders, we pretend that lies are truth and truth are lies. Democracy dies In lies: “Trump administration cheers controversial history display installation”.

Always great to talk to @zerlinamaxwell.bsky.social abt Trump speech, where he forgot he denied Russian election interference in 2016 election, cut resources for security support to states AND his lawyer, Rudy Giuliani, was disbarred 4 claiming 400k non-citizens voted in PA. #ProtectTheVote

In this #ToddBlanche confirmation hearing, Senator Schiff asks John Ashcroft if a POTUS call on a US AG to prosecute an enemy? John Ashcroft dodges the question. Schiff makes the central point: Prosecution in the US is supposed to be about evidence. The US AG should ONLY be directed by evidence.

We need to distinguish the policy discretion of the Executive branch that are within the bounds of the law and the persecution of people you want to punish for being an opponent, a voting rights groups and peaceful protesters and giving the President life time immunity from tax investigations.

#ToddBlanche boosting working with cities on crime. But the findings of patterns of police excessive force, including Memphis, and actions to protect people from police violence was reversed by this Trump DOJ. tennesseelookout.com/2025/05/21/d...

Department of Justice scraps Memphis Police investigation  • Tennessee LookoutThe U.S. Department of Justice Civil Rights Division announced Wednesday it will close its investigation into the Memphis Police Department.tennesseelookout.com

Senator Blackburn insists on tropes about “birth” tourism. No federal agency tracks it. There are only as estimates. But using fear mongering to attack the clear letter of Constitution on birthright citizenship is outrageous!

#ToddBlanche just called Senator Whitehouse a liar after he cited a list of violent extremists he pardoned. Wow! #unfit

Senator Whitehouse just spanked Kash Patel like … #ToddBlanche

Senator Kennedy asserts #ToddBlanche is qualified because he knows how to be a lawyer. His supporters are ignoring his violation of court orders, groundless prosecutions, and the New York Bar opposing him based on ethics: www.yahoo.com/news/politic...

NYC Bar Sends Letter Opposing Todd Blanche’s AG Nomination, Calling Him ‘Unfit to Lead’The New York City Bar Association released a letter it sent to the Senate Judiciary Committee opposing the nomination of Todd Blanche as Attorney General.www.yahoo.com

#Todd Blanche Freudian slip.. “I am [Trump’s] defense attorney … was his defense attorney.”

Senator Klobuchar pushed #ToddBlanche to say it was unlawful for ICE to be at polls and he would follow the law. The civil rights community is on alert for DOJ to be a weapon in our elections. Ohio Organizing Collaborative that has been targeted by DOJ & we have seen it be a weapon.

Senator Amy Klobuchar raising the DOJ blocking local law enforcement recognition when Renee Goode and Alex Pretti killed by ICE & acknowledged only just shared evidence. She raised Houston and ME killings of Mr. Salgrada Araujo & Mr. Sebastian Guerrero. #ToddBlanche claimed he would follow the law.

#ToddBlanche claimed he could release Epstein files legally. That is true for grand jury material, BUT it is factually inaccurate that they only withheld material that was legally impermissible to release. A court ordered release. www.usatoday.com/story/news/p...

DOJ defends decision to withhold millions of Epstein documentsThe DOJ responded to a court order to either produce Jeffrey Epstein files with new investigative details or explain why it won't.www.usatoday.com

I am sitting near Epstein survivors who are shaking their heads, making very clear facial expressions as #ToddBlanche makes arguments about his care for survivors and willingness to meet with them and other self-serving statements. I did not photograph them out of respect. They speak for themselves.
