Vaughn will receive a seven-figure settlement from the US government, his lawyers said, making him among those aligned with the #Trump admin who have received a payout by an alternative means. …The continuing ability of the #DOJ to make such payouts with or without a formal fund structure is one of the sticking points between the Trump admin & Republican senators as they weigh the nomination of #ToddBlanche…. #SlushFund #TaxpayersMoney #law #LegalEthics #MafiaState #autocracy #AbuseOfPower

“This answer is, at best, misleading &, at worst, disingenuous. The court was available to review any pleading by any party at any time during this lawsuit,” the judge wrote. Another federal judge, Leonie M. Brinkema of the Eastern District of Virginia, has left alive a lawsuit seeking to dismantle the #SlushFund. #TaxpayersMoney #Trump #ToddBlanche #fraud #law #LegalEthics #DOJ #MafiaState #AbuseOfPower #AbuseOfOffice

“FIVE MORE PALESTINE ACTIVISTS COULD BE SENTENCED AS TERRORISTS” by John McEvoy in Declassified UK @Declassified_UK@mastodonapp.uk @DeclassifiedUK@independent-media.co.uk @uk_politics @ZackPolanski@mastodon.green @ZackPolanski@mastox.eu @thegreenparty @palestine@fedibird.com @Palestine@masto.ai @palestine@lemmy.ml @iran @iraq@mastodon.social @palestinenews@gts.liberated.press “The [UK] Crown Prosecution Service (CPS) wants to sentence five more Palestine activists as terrorists for committing criminal damage, it can be revealed. Brendon O’Hagan, Amanda Kelly, Hmeera Atiqnisar, Mohammed Malik, and Alma Yaniv were convicted of criminal damage last month for a protest at a Barclays bank branch in Burnley in 2024. It was carried out in the name of Palestine Action almost a year before the group was banned under terrorism laws.” https://www.declassifieduk.org/five-more-palestine-activists-could-be-sentenced-as-terrorists/ #Press #SocialMedia #Journalism #UK #Britain #PalestineAction #Israel #Genocide #AbuseOfPower #Dictatorship #Injustice #CPS #Protestv#Genocide #Elbit #PalestinianGenocide #CriminalDamage

Secretary of Defense Pete Hegseth’s told Senators that the "$1.5 trillion Pentagon budget request is needed and the Trump Administration not receiving that entire amount is "the greatest threat our nation faces.” Hegseth was lying because Pres. Donald Trump is the greatest threat our nation faces.” #IranWar #OperationEpicFailure #quagmire #FundingFutureWars #FraudWasteAndAbuse #AbuseOfPower

Lest we forget: This so-called Labour regime is the most authoritarian UK government in modern history. They’re not just coming for speech. They’re coming for thought as well!!! “The UK Government Has Become a Security Threat to Its Own People” by Nouri in Manufactuting Dissent on Substack @uk_politics “This [UK Labour] government has stopped pretending it serves the British public. It serves foreign interests first, and it expects everyone else to swallow it quietly. The IRGC designation wasn’t about safety. It was about signalling obedience. It was about showing the Israel‑aligned security lobby that Labour will bend whenever told to” https://open.substack.com/pub/mandissent/p/the-uk-government-has-become-a-security #Press #SocialMedia #Journalism #UK #Labour #Mahmood #FreedomOfSpeech #AbuseOfPower #Dictatordhip #Tyrrany #Authoritarianism #Terrorism #TerrorismAct #IRGC #Proscription #Iran #Narrative #Censorship #IsraelLobby #Starmer #NationalSecurityAct

Friday, #Trump’s attys asked a federal appeals court to intervene & stay, or stop the disbursement of damages, until #SCOTUS decides whether to reconsider [even though they already declined the appeal]. His attys asked the appeals court to issue an injunction if the funds were disbursed & order the transfer of funds back to the court-controlled account while the appeal plays out. #RapistInChief #law #SexualAssault #rape #RapeCulture #misogyny #power #AbuseOfPower #ViolenceAgainstWomen

"The question is no longer who🚨 killed >120 children in Minab. The Pentagon reportedly concluded the strike stemmed from🚨outdated intelligence & systemic failures. The real question is why the US govt still refuses to publish the report, acknowledge responsibility, & hold anyone accountable." -O Memerain #Trump, #Hegseth, #Caine... are masters of #CoverUp, #deception...

So much for the foreign & domestic #emoluments clauses… #Trump reported >$1.4 billion in income from #crypto, digital #tokens & related partnerships in 2025, appearing to have SUBSTANTIALLY increased his income after reentering the White House last year.
 The income was reported in 927 pages of financial disclosure forms, which the #WhiteHouse released Tuesday. #law #AbuseOfPower #MafiaState #corruption #kleptocracy https://www.washingtonpost.com/politics/2026/06/30/trump-earned-over-1-billion-cryptocurrency-coin-ventures-last-year/

Judge Orders US to Return #Colombian Woman Deported to #Congo The unusual ruling came after the judge found that the #Trump admin had most likely violated the #law by deporting the 55-year-old woman to the African country despite its refusal to take her. The judge ordered the admin to return the woman, Adriana Maria Quiroz Zapata to the #US, a rare instance of a judge doing so amid the admin’s #deportation campaign. #immigration #judiciary #rendition #AbuseOfPower https://www.nytimes.com/2026/05/13/world/africa/congo-colombia-deportee-return.html?smid=nytcore-ios-share

Minneapolis exposed the lie. Militarised raids, dead citizens, and officials who smear victims instead of facing facts. This is not law and order, it is corruption using force to silence dissent. People pushed back, power retreated. #ICE #AbuseOfPower #Democracy #HumanRights https://www.nytimes.com/2026/01/28/opinion/minneapolis-ice-trump-gettysburg.html
