Hi, this is Meg Barnette, Brad's wife.

While escorting a defendant out of immigration court at 26 Federal Plaza, Brad was taken by masked agents and detained by ICE.

This is still developing, and our team is monitoring the situation closely.

I learned something today on @neildegrassetyson.com ‘s Startalk: “The plural of anecdotes are not data.”

I need that on a T-Shirt.

As a New Yorker, there’s nothing more satisfying than ranked-choice voting for five people you’ve never heard of before this mayoral race, so that the ones you have heard of don’t win.

RIP Justice Souter

You were a good jurist.
David Souter, Supreme Court justice favoring judicial restraint, dies at 85
On the high court from 1990 to 2009, he saw his role as one of quiet resistance against excess and dramatic change.

Every importer that has a tariff slapped on their goods, when reselling to the American public, should add the tariff to the receipt. That way consumers see exactly what the Trump #tradewar is costing them.

If they did this, the #tariffs would end by summer.

More of this please. Fast talking, plain language, American values. Why is this so hard for #Democrats to do?
I want politics to be about a better everyday life.

Here's what that can look like:

“We welcome all to our hotels and we create opportunities for all—and fundamentally those will never change. The words might change, but that’s who we are as a company.”

Is this the CEO everyone has been wanting to stand up?

CISA extends funding to ensure 'no lapse in critical CVE services'
CISA says the U.S. government has extended MITRE's funding to ensure no continuity issues with the critical Common Vulnerabilities and Exposures (CVE) program.

No MITRE CVEs after today. A new non-profit will take on this work, but funding is not clear yet. Talk about waiting to the last minute. This has profound consequences to the #cybersecurity community.

More chaos from the US government. We should all be worried.
