A reminder that the @nytimes.com told New Yorkers to not rank Mamdani at all, & instead endorsed former hedge fund manager Whitney Tilson.

Tilson sits at a whopping .8%.

Corporate media trust is dead. They killed themselves by failing to fulfill their promise of holding the powerful accountable.

Walz: "It's so obscene that he would put a mock classroom -- we all know he's never been in one. He wouldn't last for a minute. He's surrounded by people who know nothing about education. They want to make this about bureaucracy and cutting. This is about children."

It is a sad day for the legal industry. Paul Weiss, didn't just bend a knee, it set a new standard for shameful capitulation. This is a stain on the firm, every one of its partners, and the entire legal profession.

There it is — Elon Musk plans to ELIMINATE Social Security and Medicare.

What do Florida Republicans have to say about this? Demand answers. Demand a town hall.

The cover-up…

USAID officials were ordered to destroy classified documents, raising concerns about compliance with federal law. An internal email sent to remaining bureau leaders at the agency’s Washington headquarters provided guidance on “clearing our classified safes and personnel documents.”

Democrats, decorum & civility won’t preserve the American institutions you & I revere. We have to FIGHT to preserve them. These are unprecedented, scary times. The very thing our Founders feared is in the White House. Decorum & civility need to take a back seat right now.

DOGE “seemed unsure” of what USAID programs they cut and is now attempting to reverse some of the cuts, says @propublica.org reporter Brett Murphy. “This is the opposite of a careful review."

"There is perhaps no one so emblematic of what 'justice' means to Donald Trump as Ed Martin, his US attorney for DC. Martin’s disdain for the rule of law is shockingly comprehensive, and he's already started turning the DC US attorney's office into a protection racket for Trump's cronies."

I learned this morning that a president doesn't have the power to impose tariffs unilaterally except under the auspices of "national security"

So I now understand why the non existent "fentanyl from Canada" crisis is being invoked.

It is a cover to ruin our economy to facilitate annexation.

I see tomorrow is Friday.

Is Friday going a tariff day, or a some-tariffs day, or a no-tariffs day?

Or will it be some other kind of day, like an annex-Greenland day, or a Hannibal-Lecter-wants-to-have-you-for-dinner day, or an Arnold-Palmer-size day, or something else?

I just can’t keep track.

Al Green was the only Dem brave enough to stand up to him. The rest of you just sat silently. You should've interrupted him all night. Even if every one of you was escorted out. You cowards! No more $ from me!
