The values I was raised to believe & hold most dear from my faith were exemplified by Jimmy & Rosalynn. Tonight, I mourn a great man & all he symbolized 🕊️💔

Goodness, gentleness, kindness, peace, joy, love, integrity, honesty, care for one's neighbors. It seems our nation has lost sight of these.

I cannot believe "DOJ expresses skepticism over a podcast called, 'Pants on Fire'" is a real thing I just read at 11pm - what is this timeline we are living in???

DOJ opposes George Santos's request to postpone his sentencing date by six months so he can raise the $578,752.94 he owes as part of his plea. DOJ expresses skepticism that his podcast “Pants on Fire with George Santos” will generate this revenue. storage.courtlistener.com/recap/gov.us...
Dear Judge Seybert: The government respectfully submits this letter in opposition to defendant George Anthony Devolder Santos’s request to adjourn his sentencing in the above-captioned matter. See ECF No. 109. The current sentencing date of February 7, 2025, was established approximately five months ago, immediately following Santos’s guilty plea to wire fraud and aggravated identity theft. See ECF No. 102. Santos’s plea was entered pursuant to an agreement that his attorneys negotiated with the government, which required him, inter alia, to pay the sum of $578,752.94, comprised of $373,749.97 in restitution and $205,002.97 in forfeiture. By letter dated January 3, 2025, Santos claims that he needs more time (six months, in fact) to come up with this money, and asks the Court to trust that his weekly podcast, “Pants on Fire with George Santos,” will eventually generate enough revenue to satisfy his obligations. Santos’s claims are facially speculative and, in any event, entirely insufficient to warrant such a lengthy adjournment. His request for delay should be denied, and sentencing should proceed as scheduled. First, the government, the numerous victims of Santos’s criminal schemes, and the community writ large have a strong collective interest in the expeditious resolution of this case. Particularly where, as here, Santos faces a mandatory minimum term of imprisonment but remains at liberty prior to sentencing, the government seeks to ensure that justice is swiftly imposed without undue delay. Santos’s victims are also entitled to be reasonably heard at the sentencing proceeding and to have that proceeding be “free from unreasonable delay.” 18 U.S.C. § 3771(a)(4), (7). A delay to allow Santos to develop his podcast—the title of which is a tone-deaf and unrepentant reference to the crimes he committed— is presumptively (text ends here)

About to watch The Social Network tonight, so I can root for Saverin and the Winklevoss twins.

Zuck still sucks, I'm excited to join a new community here, and this felt like the exact right amount of feminine rage to kickoff my page 💪🏼🦹🏼‍♀️💙

P.S. Exclusive to Bluesky poems coming later today!! 👀
