Just left the latest hearing in Jim Comey's criminal case. It did not go well for DOJ

The magistrate judge scolded them for an "indict first, investigate second" posture and ordered them to turn over reams of material — including all grand jury info — to Comey's team

Well, it turns out people don't like looking at Trump's marble and gold as they starve.
Fucker, thought everyone would just play along?

The lesson of history is that tyrants cannot be appeased.

Appeasement only feeds their insatiable hunger for power.

Tyrants prey on people who feel unsafe and vulnerable.

But without mass submission, a tyrant is powerless.

Remember this.

Mamdani: "We can respond to oligarchy and authoritarianism with the strength it fears, not the appeasement it craves. After all, if anyone can show a nation betrayed by Donald Trump how to defeat him, it is the city that gave rise to him."

Everyone should pay careful attention to the Maine voter ID ballot measure (Prop 1). It is on track to lose -- thereby proving that the GOP claims that voter ID laws are overwhelmingly popular is a lie. Perhaps now the legacy media will stop repeating that nonsense.

The oligarchy came out in full force against Zohran Mamdani's fight for a more affordable NYC.

It didn't matter.

Let his victory in the face of Big Money serve as a reminder that people have the power.

They blew it.

But, while @hunterhodies.bsky.social (rightfully) takes the Penguins to task, I look at this as another step in “process and progress.”

Of course the risk of doing radical mid-decade gerrymandering for Rs in midterms always was that they weakened a lot of formerly safe Repub districts by moving R voters into Dem districts, which would backfire spectacularly if you have a blue wave scenario - making it a tsunami.

One player that deserved more attention is #Steelers tackle Troy Fautanu.

Against the Colts, he surrendered ZERO sacks and ZERO pressures on 39 pass-blocking snaps, according to Pro Football Focus.

Per #Steelers head coach Mike Tomlin, Scotty Miller (finger) and Cole Holcomb (illness) are out this week.

Isaac Seumalo is still nursing a pec injury. Jabrill Peppers is battling his quad injury. Both should work towards returns.

Chuck Clark will return this week after dealing with an illness.

The Raiders gave up a 4th and 6th round pick to get WR Jakobi Meyers. Based on this, the #Steelers made the right move not to trade for him.

If one were to consider the needs they have on defense, specifically in their secondary, they need to keep those picks.

AOC: We have a future to fight for, and we're either going to do that together or you're going to be left behind. It's not about Progressive. It's not moderate, it's not liberal. This is about do you understand the assignment of fighting fascism right now? And the assignment is you come together…

Registering predictions for tonight: It's pretty clear from polling that Dems will win most of the high-profile races: #VAgov, #NYCmayor, CA Prop 50. The fundamentals point to a Dem win downballot too: PA Supreme Court, VA House of Delegates, GA PSC, etc.

Congratulations to all the Democratic candidates who won tonight. It’s a reminder that when we come together around strong, forward-looking leaders who care about the issues that matter, we can win. We’ve still got plenty of work to do, but the future looks a little bit brighter.
