Just left the latest hearing in Jim Comey's criminal case. It did not go well for DOJ
The magistrate judge scolded them for an "indict first, investigate second" posture and ordered them to turn over reams of material — including all grand jury info — to Comey's team

Good morning.
Last night was a referendum on Trump's corruption, cruelty, and chaos.
But it's also not a coincidence these big wins came at the exact moment when Democrats are using our power to stand for something and be strong.
A huge risk to not learn that lesson.

This needs more attention: Zohran SPLIT the straights with Cuomo. ALL of his margin was from LGBTQ+ voters. Every Dem who ever said “we should abandon the transes” needs this shoved down their fucking throat with a ramrod.

Ok “mamdani and spanberger/sherrill took two wildly different paths to winning” is not the take, people. Really. Not everything is a left vs. center battle for the soul of the party.

so…several weeks ago, he heard rumours his tattoo was a Nazi symbol but dismissed it as insane and didn’t look into it at all, not even to proactively prepare to address potential political attacks? instead, he waited for a news outlet to contact him with proof that it was a Nazi symbol?

For Americans: Reuters utterly fucked this up, this election was a landslide for Plaid Cymru, the Welsh nationalist party. Labour collapsed, Reform was barely in the frame, but Reform is popular with English gammon-faced flag-shaggers (not Welsh folks), so that's what the lede has to be.

A few people in colonial costumes complaining about immigrants was novel to NYT editors. Their friends don't do that. A running narrative would be exciting, especially after Obama won big.

Here's a gift link to the New York Times' coverage of the initial Tea Party rallies in April 2009 which inspired the media to treat it like a massive movement.
Check out how tiny the crowds were:
Philly: 200
DC: "several hundred"
Boston: 500
Austin: 1,000
Houston: 2,000
