This is an awful state of affairs - the British Library is a treasure and it is still materially off-line after attacks. My sympathies and support to the amazing staff and to those who need the BL to finish their academic work. I remember what a help it was to me.

The British library is in crisis: why does nobody care?
The widespread indifference to the British Library's crippling cyberattack demonstrates a perilous failure to value the knowledge infrastructure vital for national prosperity

No, no, @harvard.edu, he can't be permitted to "fulfill his teaching requirements" after using his position to prey on students (or former students) he was advising. This has got to be clear grounds for full separation and that is what is appropriate here.

When the Democrats next take the House, Mike Johnson and the rest of Republican leadership should not be sworn in for 7 weeks. No pay, no offices, no voting, no perks, nothing. Without personal consequences nothing will change.
Mike Johnson refused to swear in Adelita Grijalva for 7 weeks after she won her election by about 40 points. Mitch McConnell refused to give Obama’s Supreme Court nominee, Merrick Garland, even a hearing for most of a year. Sen. Tommy Tuberville blocked all military nominations for 10 months /

Andrew Cuomo, your career is over. Now get out of NYC; you don't have to pretend you live here anymore. Eric Adams, I hope you have a long future residency here on Rikers Island when your Trump protection against corruption trials is over.

An excellent election day reminder that Andrew Cuomo, like the criminal Eric Adams, will sell out NYC to Trump for his own advancement and advantage.
This isn't a closing election argument, it's Vidkun Quisling explaining why surrender is better than resistance.

It is untenable that Schumer has such contempt for his own Democratic Party voters. You can't lead the party if you won't respect its rules - one of which is that we select our nominees through transparent primaries.
And soon it will be your turn, Chuck.

Enjoy Florida, Andrew. And don't ever come back.
So here's Andrew Cuomo reacting to Maria Bartiromo wondering if Mamdani will "change the look of New York" and have Muslim women "completely covered up," telling her that Mamdani "doesn't understand New York culture" because he has "dual citizenship" and "he's a citizen of Uganda."

Hey @nytimes.com, what has changed that now you can shift your characterization of Trump's payload from "brown liquid" to "excrement"? Have you performed some additional extensive analysis of the video? Pray tell.
Or is it just that you are allowed to say this on page A16 but not up-front?

I glanced down at the message.
“Anna, Lindsey Halligan here,” it began.
So began my text exchange with the woman who is prosecuting the president's perceived political enemies.

And so the Eric Adams administration ends as it began, a comic farrago of corruption, incompetence, and swaggering police blather.
Bernie Kerik is one of the worst characters of our time. He was carrying on an affair as police commissioner using an apartment specially reserved for 9/11 crews clearing debris from Ground Zero. He was a convicted felon and helped wreck Iraq. He deserved precisely zero tributes in public life.
"Kerik's professional biography is long, fascinating, and so chock-a-block with outrageous and alarming episodes of moral failure that his life takes on a sort of mythic scale, a tall tale of rolling skullduggery." - @nickpinto.bsky.social

Well there's an idea... leadership from the Leadership?
Chuck Schumer and Hakeem Jeffries could hold a press conference right now and announce that they will not fund a government that is engaged in an organized and unconstitutional effort to silence any criticism.

Every time I see this I crack up again.
Eric Adams is amazing because when he won every media person was leaping over each to go “this is the normal sane leadership that the political left doesn’t understand normal sane Americans crave” and then every day since that Eric Adams has been like “Leprechauns are real and I’m going to cook one”

Schumer is absolutely ineffective and must go. And as for Jeffries, I wish I lived in his district so I could vote for a primary challenger, as I will for Schumer and Gillibrand.
Terrific piece by @mehdirhasan.bsky.social for @theguardian.com.
The country desperately needs congressional Democrats to get their shit together, and it needs to happen sooner rather than later.
