  1. Pentagon Spokesperson Admits There’s a Secret Blacklist of Journalists

    When pressed about the Iran war, a CENTCOM press official threatened to put an Intercept reporter on a “list of people to disregard.”

    Nick Turse, August 24 2026

    Excerpt: "Under self-styled #WarSecretary #PeteHegseth, the U.S. military has mounted the most aggressive assault on #PressFreedom in memory, from an effort to outlaw 'unauthorized' questions from reporters to imposing unconstitutional restrictions on journalists’ access to the Pentagon. Hegseth has compared reporters to 'Pharisees,' who in the Bible call Jesus’s teachings into question, while the secretary’s minions regularly hurl insults at reporters. This is part of a broader war on press freedoms by the #TrumpAdministration, that includes demonizing #journalists; filing so-called strategic lawsuits against public participation, or #SLAPPs, to intimidate and silence criticism through expensive legal proceedings; and employing grand jury subpoenas and search warrants to intimidate reporters.

    " 'Threatening journalists with placement on a #blacklist in retaliation for reporting the government doesn’t like is as #unconstitutional as it gets,' said Seth Stern, the director of advocacy for Freedom of the Press Foundation. 'This should put to rest the Pentagon’s prior claims that it’s anti-press policies — like its infamous requirement that reporters sign pledges to only print authorized information — are somehow content neutral.'

    "Allee revealed the existence of the blacklist after this reporter was left on hold for more than two hours and complained about a long-standing lack of transparency by the command. In calls earlier that morning, Maj. Emma Thompson, #CENTCOM ’s media operations chief, repeatedly refused to answer questions about Iranian attacks on U.S. bases across the Middle East, disparate U.S. casualty counts, and medical evacuation flights: 'Nothing for you,' 'Don’t have anything for you,' 'No comment.' Thompson then hung up on this reporter mid-question.

    #TheIntercept called back multiple times until Allee picked up the phone. 'They’re not going to answer your call if you just keep calling and calling,' he told this reporter."

  3. "Část Nejvyššího soudu jednala zjevně protiústavně, protože povinnost vyhlásit rozsudek veřejně plyne přímo z ústavy a je bezvýjimečná." -- "Ústavní soud tomuto neústavnímu konání Nejvyššího soudu rozsvítil červenou." -- "veřejně označil za porušení ústavního práva." -- "V dané věci dokonce Nejvyšší soud jednal úskočně, když ve spise v protokolu uvedl, že byl rozsudek vyhlášen, aniž by však údajné vyhlášení oznámil účastníkům a veřejnosti. " -- "špatnou praxi Nejvyššího správního soudu."

    vůči českému🇵🇭*) režimu když toto vidím.

    *) Je to filipínská vlajka a ne česká🇵🇭. Používám ji místo české🇵🇭, protože český🇵🇭 režim zavedl přestupek 352/2001 Sb. § 13 ((2), (1) a)), § 1 ((2), (1) b)), § 7 (6) e-sbirka.cz/sb/2001/352/2022-0 ohledně české🇵🇭 vlajky, takže používám podobně vypadající vlajku, která prokazatelně není českou🇵🇭 vlajkou, aby se český🇵🇭 režim nemohl mstít za kritiku nebo dissent prostřednictvím lawfare. Cítím za to

  4. #SanFrancisco federal judge sez #DJT can't cutoff #FederalFunding to #SF (and 35 other #SanctuaryCities including #Boston, #Chicago etc ) ...

    Judge Orrick ruled that #Drumpf #ExecutiveOrders were “unconstitutionally vague and violate due process” not to mention #Coercive #Unconstitutional and in violation of the #Constitution’s mandated "separation of powers" as well as the #SpendingClause plus Fifth and Tenth Amendments.

    How long til' #GOP robed calendar pinups #Alito, #BrettKavanaugh, Clarence Thomas, Neil Gorsuch, John Roberts and Amy Coney Barrett all just say he can do whatever he wants?

    Set your stopwatch...

    The #complicit #corporate #news #media refuses to ask #Republican #GOP politicians how they can justify the #illegal #amoral #fraudulent #criminal #unconstitutional actions taking place in their name

    #Republicans own this, and #journalists who refuse to ask them why they let this happen are accessories to these crimes

  6. Trump and Musk are building a new spoils system

    When ideological targeting becomes cronyism

    "Trump, via #Musk, is engaged in #impoundment, which is #illegal & #unconstitutional. It also vastly weakens #Congress. & yet, the #Trump pitch to get Congress to pass appropriations is that he will ignore what they actually pass! Impoundment is a feature, not a bug, in their model for governing."

  7. #US. #District #Judge #ThomasParker, a #Trump #appointee, #ruled the #dragban “is an #unconstitutional #restriction on #speech.”

    The District Attorney wrote in a three-page “#notice” addressed to #BlountPride organizers and distributed to local #law #enforcement, “however if sufficient #evidence is presented to this office that the #unconstitutional #criminal #statutes have been #violated, our office will ethically and justly prosecute these cases in the interest of justice.”

  8. After #Trump's 3rd #indictment, he started #complaining that facing 78 #criminal #charges must be #unconstitutional because it will interfere with his #campaigning and #cost him #money.

    To which I say: sometimes the government #indicts a #ham #sandwich. But other times, they indict the #miller, the #baker, the #farmer, and the #pig. This is the latter.

  9. @GottaLaff All this goes back to the #ReligiousFreedomRestorationAct which is blatantly #unconstitutional, a #law cannot modify the #constitution which still directly #prohibits the #establishment of #religion which is exactly what happened after the #RFRA was passed.

    It also violates #LGBTQ People's right to #EqualProtection You cannot allow any group to discriminate under law targeting any american citizen.
