U.S. Attorneys are not the President’s lawyers. They are the United States’ lawyers. You didn’t pledge an oath to a President, you pledged it to the constitution. This statement alone is reason enough to resign.

Pam Bondi is disbanding the Foreign Influence Task Force - the FBI team that is charged with combatting foreign meddling in US elections. Worth asking how this makes us more safe in any way, shape, or form.

My daughter & her 6th grade class in a white suburb just read this book. Her little bro & I followed along on audiobook, read by the great @levarburton.bsky.social. It’s an extraordinary, funny, touching book.
