This — the Federal Bureau of Investigation’s arrest today of a sitting judge — against the backdrop that the President of the United States is, at this same moment, defying an April 10 Order of the Supreme Court of the United States

For those puzzled why the strong box office opening of SINNERS is being framed as disappointing somehow, Vulture gave the game away two days ago.

Studios are freaking out about letting the copyright revert to Coogler, so the film can't be seen as a success. The fix is in.

Love this from @benstiller.redhour.com. Variety and NYT published stories today that framed SINNERS, which just scored the highest grossing opening weekend for an original movie since Jordan Peele's pre-pandemic US, as a pyrrhic box office victory. This stinks. Who's being served here?

A tale of two movies:

Similar deal structures. Similar budgets.

One made $45M from 3300 screens, post pandemic, and won the weekend.

The other made $41M from 3600 screens pre-pandemic, and placed second.

And yet this is the coverage.

Va. (D)s have a 2 seat majority in the HoD.
@vademocrats.bsky.social can win a lot of new seats this year, if they run in every HD. Dems need 4 more candidates in the rural HDs below⬇️. Dems are now competing in 96/100 HDs. @helmerva.bsky.social @donscott757.bsky.social @abigailspanberger.com

Raskin: He destroyed more than $10 trillion in American wealth in a single week. And then he went golfing and bragged to America about winning the tournament at his own golf course. That's like bragging about being endorsed by your own campaign manager. So much winning

Trade deficit. I have bought food from say, Chilis. They have never bought food from me.

There is a trade deficit with Chilis. I’m still doing fine.

The trade deficit argument SOUNDS compelling, but it’s a straw man with no relevancy

Fam, remember three years ago when Cory Booker brought tears to all of our eyes when he lifted up Ketanji Brown Jackson?

“You are worthy.”

That’s who he is. That’s who he’s always been.

Thank you, @booker.senate.gov, for using your voice to alert people to Trump and Musk's wrecking ball to Social Security and other vital services Americans rely on.
I’ve taken the Senate floor and will speak for as long as I’m physically able to lift the voices of Americans who are being harmed and not being heard in this moment of crisis. Watch here:
