Thrilled with this review for THE GIRL IN THE GREEN DRESS from @publisherswkly.bsky.social. Also, that they chose to highlight the gorgeous cover.
★ Mariah Fredericks brilliantly evokes 1920s New York City in this riveting standalone inspired by the unsolved murder of gambler and womanizer Joseph Elwell. Add in an enthralling investigation and a complex, fame-hungry lead, and it’s undeniable: Fredericks has struck gold.

You know how everyone now says they were always against the Iraq war when most people were for it? Let’s just skip the step of going to war with Iran, because one day everyone will say how they were always against it… except the weirdos, who just love bloodshed and bombs.
People across the country agree: No War with Iran

A small bit of good news. But there are others who should be released as well.
Three children and their mother have been released from federal custody after being detained by immigration enforcement agents last month at an upstate New York dairy farm.

Trump is defying court orders and abusing wartime powers to deport people with no due process.
He's using the law that put Italian, German, and Japanese immigrants in detention camps during World War II.
We are not at war. Donald Trump is not a king. He is not above the law.

Always wondered how the Star Wars Emperor could start with a battle-hardened army and end up with an "entire legion of his best troops" being beaten to death by teddybears with sticks.
Then Hegseth ended up as US Defence Sec. And now yeah that makes sense.

Jim Acosta: I think the AP should consider whether or not to sue the administration… and the rest of the press corps should start seriously considering whether it’s worth sending everyone into the Oval Office, onto Air Force One, or into the briefing room.
