My cat just got herself wedged in a pocket door that leads to our wine room. She tried to fight her way out and I laughed until I cried. Now she’s PISSED. How’s your day going?

Why is Eric Adams going all anti-immigrant?

Because he has a deal with Trump — so Trump will pardon Adams and give him a role in the administration.

This is an open secret among insiders in NYC politics.

That’s why.

I don't know who needs to know this, but Pro Publica has an online thing that will format a letter to your US health insurance company to demand the records behind a claim denial. (which the insurance is then legally required to provide in most cases)

We need to build a new opposition movement that is strong enough and durable enough to weather the attacks coming from Trump and the GOP in the years ahead.

I hope you watch, consider and share.

If you’re still on Twitter expecting to get breaking news, you’re the same as someone waiting for the stagecoach delivery while everyone else is clustered around the telegraph.

Also, the stagecoach is full of Nazis.

This is one of the best defenses I’ve heard of the pardon: a view that the justice system was unfair & failed Hunter & his dad was in a position to right a wrong. It’s by Chris Clark Hunter’s 1st lawyer & a former prosecutor who knows how things are supposed work.

The nominee to take over the FBI has publicly published a list of innocent Americans he plans to target if given the power. This is more important than finger wagging about norms and traditions.
@timmiller.bsky.social published Kash Patel's "Executive Branch Deep State" list, originally an appendix to his "Government Gangsters" book, and posted it on xitter.

50+ current and former officials who Patel intends to target.

I'm on it, for my 3 months of government service.

Call me crazy, but I think Justin Sun, a Chinese national being prosecuted for fraud by the SEC, sending Trump $18 million should be a bigger story

The direct enrichment of Trump by a foreign national weeks before he takes office has merited no coverage in the NYT or Washington Post
A Chinese national, charged with fraud by the SEC, just sent Donald Trump $18 million
Chinese Crypto entrepreneur Justin Sun paid $6.2 million for a banana — sold by Sotheby's as conceptual art — and then ate it last Friday.

This bigotry will again ruin lives and harm the military, which will lose thousands of highly skilled people at a time when it needs them.
News has just broke that Trump plans to eject trans people from the military within days of inauguration.

Trans servicemembers who have served 19 years will lose their pensions and healthcare.

This is obscene. They served our country, and will be kicked to the side like trash.
