The House passed Section 702, allowing warrantless spying on Americans. But its fate remains uncertain as many senators from both sides of the aisle oppose it. Watch FPF’s @trevortimm.bsky.social to see who backed it — and how to pressure the Senate to reject it. freedom.press/fisa

Sharyn Alfonsi is out at @60minutes.bsky.social for standing up for editorial integrity. That's what press freedom looks like under the Ellisons — and that’s why we need to stop them from buying CNN and running the same playbook. @jimacosta.bsky.social and @karaswisher.bsky.social break it down.
What was once a fringe legal theory cooked up by Texas police to muzzle a local reporter is now being mirrored by the Trump administration to chip away at constitutional protections for basic journalistic practices. Watch @trevortimm.bsky.social explain, and subscribe: freedom.press/newsletters

“Here are a bunch of unarmed people with baby formula on a ship, and then there’s this elite navy who are just armed to the f — ing teeth ... there to intercept us,” @recolston.bsky.social told us in November about the last time he and other journalists were abducted by Israel from flotillas.

It's a fridge with a bottle of champagne in someone's kitchen until the camera zooms out. I often see similar things in Kharkiv: a ceiling lamp hanging by a wire in a dark, shattered room; a kitchen cabinet still hanging on the wall when the rest of the room is gone;

Today, I stood with Ranking Member Maxine Waters and House Democrats at the Supreme Court ahead of oral arguments on Trump’s attempt to fire Fed Governor Lisa Cook. Our economy depends on an independent Fed guided by data, not political pressure, to protect businesses and family budgets.

Trump is ramping up election fraud claims again. There is still no evidence of fraud that could change the results. So the real question being raised is this. Is this just reaction to past losses? Or could it be setting the stage for what comes next? https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=u7f_Mnp5s6o

I’m watching what looks like steam-like vapor rising from the Lake Michigan like it’s sea smoke! The temperature is 5° in Chicago but feels like -10°! Don’t get me wrong, it’s freezing out there but we’ve definitely experienced colder weather.🥶 It’s beautiful to watch!
It's not the reason the Spurs scored here but the mindset from Wemby just speaks volumes. Fox swings to Wemby he looks to go 1v1. Nothing there, he swings. Now Vassell gets a drive, ball movement gets the Spurs a 3. Just feel more settled in and decisive around him tonight.
