It’s wild that neither the Gazette or @masslive.bsky.social even get a story posted to their websites overnight about this.

And firing the messengers who bring the bad news.

Also, nice to see you here @rmfifthcircuit.bsky.social . I’ve been gone from the other place a long time and haven’t missed it, but yours was a voice I always appreciated.

I did think that Klein (and I am a fan) brought up some though provoking points around Dems uneasy transition into an institutionalist party and where that leaves them relative to some of their coalition.

I thought this was also a particularly disingenuous moment by Gurri. It’s irrelevant whether the case is strong against Adams or not (it is). The unprecedented thing is the corrupt tradeoff to avoid prosecution.

I didn’t really have a question for the Park Ranger at the information desk, but I asked one anyway and then thanked him for his work and service… and apologized. He told me they were all there until [long pause] “they decide.” He visibly teared up. www.nytimes.com/2025/02/20/s...

I went to a national park yesterday. The place was so clean and well maintained. It exuded pride of place and mission.

True. We are identifying the pain points. Saying them out loud. It's terrifying.

Fair. But even a “temporary” pause of trillions of dollars while it’s successfully challenged legally could do serious, serious damage. Here’s the one making me lose sleep. www.tighebond.com/proposed-fed...

My God. $29 million to Boston Children’s Hospital. $7.6 million to Dana Farber. The list goes on and on.
