I mean, look, I'm not a reporter, so who am I to talk?
But on a day where the president both just called a woman reporter "Piggy" and is celebrating someone who had people bone saw apart one of my colleagues, I might just be a little ready to defend my colleagues and profession.
But that's just me

Hope you check out "The Daily Dean." Today's topic: Why didn't Pam Bondi investigate Jeffrey Epstein when she was Attorney General of Florida from 2011 to 2019?! She investigated and prosecuted others for sex crimes versus children--so why not Epstein?! youtu.be/7Gxzb1z8yhc?...

Trump orders his DOJ to investigate only Democrats mentioned in the Epstein Files. He then tells Rs to vote to release them.
My take on Trump's moves to gaslight Americans into thinking he wants it all out there & how the US Atty/SDNY is about to step in it big time.

And again, a pattern of putting out statements accusing people of serious Federal crimes and then releasing them hours or days or weeks later with no charges. And no retraction.
NEWS: Federal agents crashed with woman’s car, pointed guns at her, dragged her out by legs, tossed her in a minivan, held her and (eventually) let her go without charges. This as Chicagoans say the immigration blitz is out of control. (DHS blames her.)

These stories crack me up. New Yorkers are not going anywhere. They just aren’t.
Nearly a million New Yorkers ready to flee NYC if Mamdani becomes mayor — possibly igniting mass exodus: poll
Nearly a million New Yorkers ready to flee NYC if Mamdani becomes mayor — possibly igniting mass exodus: poll
Hundreds of thousands of New Yorkers are prepared to bolt from the Big Apple if socialist candidate Zohran Mamdani wins Tuesday's mayoral race — potentially setting the stage for the largest population flight in US history, a new poll warns.

It's pretty fascinating seeing New Yorkers lose their minds (derogatory) about Mamdani.
His vision for NYC is better than Cuomo's.
Also: Cuomo's actions and decisions literally killed New Yorkers. How could anyone trust him to lead this city?

@katmabu.bsky.social has put herself on the line to protect our communities from ICE and now she’s being prosecuted for daring to dissent.
We’re proud to stand with Kat and the rest of the “Broadview Six” against these trumped-up charges. And we’re proud to support Kat for Congress.
