Unbelievable. He’s a US Senator who wanted to ask questions in a public press conference. They are trying to crush any dissent.

The context is important. How we got into this mess is important as we grapple with how we might get out of it.

Bad hews, not only for those of us who are still interested in limiting our exposure but for everyone. You don’t have to dig deep to find credible research the repeated infections can cause vascular and organ damage. Despite what people want to believe, COVID isn’t “over”

On Friday, lawyers for Griffin laid out their case for retroactively disqualifying 65,000 ballots, disenfranchising tens of thousands of registered voters and overturning the election results and Riggs’s victory. www.democracydocket.com/news-alerts/...

I’ve lived and worked with citizens in a very red county in NC. Mediocre public education means many of them don’t know what “oligarchy” and “fascist” mean. If we want these folks to understand the crisis, we need simpler words.

It’s been nearly 6 months since WNC suffered its worst natural disaster in history #hurricanehelene. There is still so much work to be done towards recovery. I’m trying to save my 100 y/o building. She’s a beauty, robust and sturdy. Can you help her shine again? gofund.me/b4aacb7d

I could write up why there’s no constitutional problem with the President using an auto-pen to sign official documents—or I could just post the 30-page 2005 opinion by George W. Bush’s Office of Legal Counsel that explains why in lots of detail. I choose the latter: www.justice.gov/file/494411/...

MUST-WATCH: This is the arrest of Mahmoud Khalil from the perspective of his wife, who is 8 months pregnant. This is federal agents in plain clothes dragging a man from his home as punishment for his speech. @nyclu.org @ccrjustice.org @theimeu.bsky.social

For a split second, I considered Schumer’s argument that Trump would perpetuate a shutdown on his own terms. Explain wtf is already happening? We’re in deep shit and those Senate Dems gave him one more chance to prove he’s not a monster? They blew it for us. How far the mighty fall.

@algreen.house.gov was the only Dem in the Chamber who met my expectations. All the others sat there in the powerlessness.
