FKA @RonJohnsonsSoul on (RIP) bird app.

Still a warm, gooey metaphysical spirit. Unfortunately still on the lam. #Mephistopheles. #itsalongstory

PSA: @SenRonJohnson = a huge, hemorrhoid-inducing rat-poo. He'd sell u too.

To my #animalcaucus and #lawsky besties:

Creating A Soul + meeting/knowing y’all, was the best thing to come to me from the ascendancy of DJT.

I value the 73%. But it’s the 28% I really cherish.

Thanks for listening to me when we disagree. And sharing in good faith when I ask a question.
Love this column from @CarlosNYT. Opinions in the age of social media have become overly simplistic — agree or oppose. In fact, there are infinite possible viewpoints on every subject. Here is to more independent thinking and appreciation of nuance.

Julie K. Brown is a reporter for the Miami Herald who did groundbreaking work on Epstein beginning in 2018, including groundbreaking work on the disgusting coverup by Alex Acosta.

Her travel itinerary was released with some of the Epstein files. It appears the DOJ was monitoring her in 2019.

Eventually this trend will just result in every techbrah naming their company something like “Anal Prolapse” and giving smug, tedious interviews about What It Means

“You are not entitled to a response from us, or anyone, ever,” is what a US Education Department spokesperson wrote to one of our reporters, @megomatz.bsky.social, after she repeatedly tried to get comment from the department and its officials. My column on the condemnation of good journalism.
Our Reporters Reached Out for Comment. They Were Accused of Stalking and Intimidation.
Our journalists reach out to people they’re writing about to ensure fairness. But in this environment, they’ve found their efforts to do so are more likely to be vilified than appreciated.

“The Court got a very big one right—in ways that will almost certainly make it more difficult, as it should be, for the Trump administration to attempt to militarize domestic law enforcement based on dubious factual predicates.”

Me in today’s “One First” on four takeaways from Trump v. Illinois:
199. Four Takeaways From the National Guard Ruling
A deep dive into last Tuesday's ruling in which a 6-3 majority of the Court stopped the Trump administration from deploying federalized National Guard troops into and around Chicago.

An essential development over the past decade-plus is that the ignorant went from feeling chastened when their ignorance was revealed to banding together and deciding that, actually, they were right. They might disagree at times, but they agreed that ignorance itself was an indicator of trust.

Trump: "We have a fool at the Federal Reserve. I mean, Biden reappointed him. It's too bad. You would have thought he wouldn't have done that."

My constituent, Wilmer, was mauled by an ICE attack dog despite the fact that, as he has consistently explained, he was not resisting arrest or trying to flee—his wife and young children, all U.S. citizens, were forced to watch helplessly as Wilmer was violently attacked and dragged away.

Pete Hegseth says he’s going to court-martial me for saying the same exact thing he said 9 years ago. What changed for Pete? Well to start, he spends all day thinking about how he can suck up to Trump. When Trump says jump, he says how high.

We’re frogs in the pot about this, I think. We’re so hardened to eliminationist, fascist rhetoric from the right that it hardly makes a dent when a prominent host on a major network suggests exterminating a large group of people. But he did. And nobody on modern Right gives a shit.
But don’t call them Nazis.

Everything that happened last night came back to Phillip all at once. He was now pretty sure he knew just exactly what he’d do for a Klondike Bar, and he really hoped there weren’t any pictures.
