Today, turns out the intel that Pete Hegseth shared on at least two unsecure Signal chats came from a classified system; three prosecutors on the Eric Adams case have resigned after being pressured by Emil Bove to lie about it; new images could change cancer research but ICE has detained the Harvard scientist who analyzes them; lawyers for Abrego Garcia issue their first letter accusing the government of obstructing the court ordered discovery in his case; the FDA has suspended quality tests for milk; the Trump administration will be sending those in student loan default to collections; A Tennessee bill that would have required school districts to ask students their citizenship status is likely now dead for the year; a Trump draft order calls for a dramatic restructuring of the State Department; a federal judge orders the government to give Venezuelan migrants in Colorado a 21 day deportation notice; HHS is going to scrap the national LGBTQ Youth Suicide Hotline; and Sarah Palin loses her defamation suit against the New York Times… again; and Allison and Dana deliver your Good News.

The email read in part: On February 6, 2025, President Trump enacted Executive Order (EQ) 14202, Eradicating Anti-Christian Bias, establishing a Task Force to review the last Administration's treatment Accordingly, the Department of Veterans Affairs (VA) is establishing its own Task Force to better effectuate the Department's internal review. The VA Task Force now requests all instances of anti-Christian discrimination to Anti-ChristianBiasReporting@va.gov
Submissions should include sufficient identifiers such as names, dates, and locations - make sure to let them know about any anti-christian shit the trump administration is doing.
