La Tilde looks like a regional outlet. It's a Pentagon influence operation using AI to manufacture consent for U.S. military presence across Latin America — and it's building infrastructure, not just planting stories.
A split appeals court ruling protects transgender troops currently in uniform while allowing the Pentagon to bar new enlistment — a two-tier structure that preserves individuals while systematically eliminating the group they belong to.
Newark Mayor Ras Baraka's curfew around Delaney Hall restricts protesters but imposes nothing on the facility where detainees have alleged beatings and pepper spray retaliation — the conditions that brought demonstrators there in the first place.
The Trump administration scrapped its $1.8 billion 'anti-weaponization' fund after GOP pushback and a federal court fight. No disbursement records have been released. No eligibility rules were ever published. The retreat is not the accountability.
Top House Democrat calls out SEC schools for silence Campaign comes as states move to redraw voter maps Hakeem Jeffries, the top US House Democrat, has amplified calls for Black athletes to boycott public universities in states that have moved to limit voting rights, saying an “unprecedented moment,
ICE agent Christian Castro shot a Venezuelan man in Minneapolis in January, filed a report claiming self-defense, and was arrested in Texas eleven days after being charged. Body camera footage drove the case. The question is what conditions made the lie a reasonable bet in the first place.
A federal judge ruled Friday that only Congress can rename the Kennedy Center, halting both the renaming and a planned closure. The 94-page decision is a precise legal rebuke of an administration that has repeatedly treated statutory boundaries as advisory.
Louisiana Republicans passed a new congressional map eliminating the majority-Black sixth district drawn under federal court order — shifting the state's delegation to 5-1 Republican and testing how much enforcement power the weakened Voting Rights Act still has.
Health Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr. fired the co-chairs of the U.S. Preventive Services Task Force last week. Why it matters: The move could open the task force up to more political influence.

Detainees at Delaney Hall told a visiting member of Congress that ICE used pepper spray and physical force against them in direct retaliation for an ongoing hunger strike. The agency's own framing confirms the logic — that protesting conditions is itself an offense.
Two police officers, a handful of rebelling Republicans, and a 1998 law stand between the "Anti-Weaponization Fund" and reality. Here is what each of them can actually do — and why none of it is a sure thing.
Three rulings landed on May 21 — none of them the term's marquee cases, but each one a window into how this Court reads a statute, when it chooses to look away, and who pays when it does.
How a $10 billion lawsuit, a $1.776 billion fund, and a one-page memo quietly removed every check the Constitution was built to keep.
Michael Caputo, longtime Trump ally and veteran of his first administration, filed the inaugural claim from the DOJ's $1.8 billion anti-weaponization fund — seeking $2.7 million with no published eligibility criteria governing who qualifies.
Sen. Chris Van Hollen says Democrats' Israel-Palestine strategy has failed — a public admission from a party insider that is more damning than it first appears. The real question is whether the party mistakes a political reckoning for a moral one.
Dark money is political spending by groups that hide their donors. Over $2.8 billion flowed through the system in 2024, shaping elections and policy in ways the public cannot see.
