Breaking:

A federal appeals court just ruled that the Trump admin must return hundreds of California National Guard troops to Gov. Newsom's control.

Newsom: "I'm glad Pres. Trump has finally admitted defeat: We've said all along the federalization of the National Guard in California is illegal."

On Jack Smith deposition, now released:

100% obvious why GOP refused to allow this as open testimony, aired live. It's damning.

Testimony from John Dean or Alex ("wiretaps") Butterfield in Watergate days would have 1/10th the impact if just in print.

What Smith says is far more incriminating.

New Year’s Eve release should not obscure Jack Smith’s testimony. He collected evidence lawfully, and he believed it would prove Trump’s guilt beyond a reasonable doubt.

When we were finished, he ... says to me, "You know, you have a lot of power in the discretion you use to be kind to people."
And I looked at him and I said, "You know, you do, too."

This is about the Vanity Fair article and photos by Christopher Anderson, but boy is this quote relevant to #nzpol.

The photographer on that boat was Christopher Anderson, who, 25 years later, snapped the famous photos of the Trump administration for Vanity Fair.

Christopher Anderson and the editors have a certain style of photo journalism at Vanity Fair.
Chris Whipple has a certain style and with 11 interviews, he presented the profile in a succinct way.

When Rob Reiner was on his all-time epic run at the start of his career, he had an opportunity to read a script that was looking for a production partner, and he lost his mind for it. He decided Castle Rock had to have it, no matter what.

The entire scene looks like Norman Rockwell painted The Death of Empathy, directed by Jeffrey Dahmer and executive produced by Satan. Hang this next to The Scream and the painting would lean over and whisper, Is that guy okay.

Team Newsom @governor.ca.gov is taking bold, concrete steps to reduce dependence on a chaotic federal health landscape.

California is now producing its own insulin through CalRx, an innovative and timely model that leverages their purchasing power to reduce healthcare costs for Californians.

People are spontaneously posting up near any laborers or street vendors they spot. Just saw a rapid responder guarding a man working on a building exterior. Many things are terrible today but lord, this stuff matters.
There are a tremendous number of ICE watchers out in Rogers Park this afternoon after some early morning abductions.

People are guarding churches and patrolling alleyways. Ran into Alderperson Hadden. First timers tell us they're primed and ready to use their whistles.

“I … met with the governor, met with the mayor, met with the chief of police, and the superintendent of the highway patrol. They’re all lying, and disingenuous, and dishonest people,” Noem said, because they wouldn’t back up her baseless claims that the streets were overrun with terrorists.
