Dr Allison, looking at the “redactions” with Epstein files, is it possible those FBI training files you’ve FOIA’d would show an error in how to redact properly and malicious compliance is what we are seeing?
Thanks for all your continuing hard work @muellershewrote.com

The largest group of registered voters in CO-04 are independent! Not Republican. Not Democrat. Why? Because Coloradans are fiercely independent and know what's best for us isn't always black and white (or red and blue). I vow to always be independent-minded and put CO-04 first.

Scientists: have you been the target of an online harassment campaign, doxxing, or weaponized FOIA requests? I'd like to talk to you about steps you had to take to protect your digital security for an upcoming Nature story. (You can be anonymous if necessary.)

The projection of Megyn Kelly in this opening monologue is stunning. With a few slight modifications, Kelly’s statement accurately describes MAGA’s cover up of the Epstein scandal....

Leadership starts with representing people. It's that simple. And every day, I hear from people in Colorado: They are ready for new leadership.

Health care premiums for Coloradans are going to skyrocket—double for many—and the blame is directly at the feet of Lauren Boebert for allowing necessary parts of the Affordable Care Act to expire and doing nothing to find a solution to fill the gaps if they do.

When visiting in Windsor, it’s very clear to me that Lauren Boebert’s neighbors don’t care about aliens or culture wars. They’re far more concerned about local economic development and lowering costs. That’s what I’ll focus on in Congress.

Happy birthday to the United States Navy. For 250 years, our sailors have served our nation with honor, dignity, and courage. The Navy holds a special place in my heart having served alongside incredible men and women for 34 years following in the footsteps of my father and grandfather.

It’s now official: our troops will miss paychecks while the Senate skips town. The people who defend this nation are left scrambling to pay rent while politicians keep getting paid.

Authoritarians rule based on fear.

Ridiculing them this way weakens their propaganda.

It matters.

IMO rhetoric will stick. Most perceive military as mostly people running around shooting things.
I took a LA class engine room through overhaul. Frequent blank stares as to what that implies for mechanical know how.
Please change public narrative of what military knowledge and competencies are.
Appreciated the opportunity to share with @politico.com why framing military policy around culture wars rhetoric undermines readiness and distracts from real national security priorities.

Women warriors fought to be able to serve our country alongside men. They have proven their worth in combat time and again. Attacking those who serve because they don’t match Pete Hegseth’s narrative weakens our military and our nation.

We can't solve Colorado's challenges until we fix what's broken in Washington. That means real change, not just slogans. I am committed to reforming the problems establishment politicians have gotten us into so we can make real change for Coloradans. https://bit.ly/4mDDuu2

Elon just got his spineless board to approve a ONE TRILLION DOLLAR PAY PLAN FOR HIMSELF. *This* is why every billionaire is a policy failure. It's just just the outrageousness of the pay; it's the soul- and democracy-destroying way they spend it. #virginiavoter #Tesla #elonmusk
Elon Musk wades into the Virginia governor's race, attacking Abigail Spanberger over trans rights.

And the GOP's lieutenant governor nominee seems to think it's a good thing for Elon to become a headline in Virginia, of all places.

High road democrats aren’t bad people.

They’re simply in denial about how dire things are. Or afraid. Or unable to meet the moment.

Wish them well.

Then vote them out.
