If you are a member of the D.C. Bar, please be on the look out for your ballot. And VOTE for Diane Seltzer for D.C. Bar president.

So at what point are we going to start focusing on the Tesla board? Are they fulfilling their fiduciary obligation to the shareholders? Preventing the CEO from running the company into the ground is kind of why we have corporate boards, no?

Gregg is a former Marine and Forest Service ranger. He's saved the lives of hikers dangling off a cliff or going through cardiac arrest, and he's bravely fought forest fires to save small rural towns. 100% of his salary is paid by WA state. Elon fired him. Share his story.

American institutions—from the media to Congress—continue to underreact to the unraveling of our democracy. Overseas our media would not hesitate to call what we’re living through a full-blown autocratic coup. Here's my attempt at the story they should write: www.doomsdayscenario.co/p/musk-trump...

They are careless people. storage.courtlistener.com/recap/gov.us...

look I’m no messaging expert but it seems like the American people might be interested to know that Donald Trump just gave our social security numbers to a teen called BigBalls

NEW: Sources tell my office that Treasury Secretary Bessent has granted DOGE *full* access to this system. Social Security and Medicare benefits, grants, payments to government contractors, including those that compete directly with Musk's own companies. All of it.

NEW: Elon Musk's team has hijacked massive datasets of government worker DOBs, home addresses, social security numbers, length of service, and performance evals - revoking the access of OPM career officials. www.reuters.com/world/us/mus...

This is a hostile takeover of the federal government by a private citizen of unlimited means with no restrictions and no transparency. Welcome to the Deep State www.reuters.com/world/us/mus...

To be clear, he is not an elected official in any real branch of government, he’s a foreign national instituting a coup.

Everyone read this

okay so what legal authority does elon musk have to commandeer the office of personnel management and access reams of sensitive data? www.reuters.com/world/us/mus...

My feeling is that it's not unserious to spend time on the question of whether someone about to be hired for one of the most powerful jobs in the world drugged and raped a woman (as she alleges and he denies) www.nytimes.com/2025/01/15/o...

Can't believe we're having this "tall people being asked to get things off the top shelf" discussion in a society that invented the largest guy we could think of and named him Reacher

A reminder of what was actually in his emails, which will no doubt be characterized in vague terms in the coming days

Jimmy Carter Appreciation 🧵: As we mourn Carter's death, there will be lots of discussion of his presidency and his post-presidential exploits, including his work with @habitatforhumanity.bsky.social and the @cartercenter.bsky.social. But I want to talk about Carter and the federal judiciary....

*whispers respectfully and in a friendly tone* maybe this one could have stayed in the drafts

Yes, but you have to understand, a college student had expressed an opinion during that time.

School children, on the other hand, can call 1-800-F*ck-Off. #Satire

I know it's a lot to ask of Dem House members but can we promote the young member who talks good and people like? As cool as it is to always replace people with people just like the people they replaced so nothing ever changes, I'd like to win elections and get stuff done at some point.

The 39th time we've had to post this, and this time about The Onion's original hometown.

STAY POSITIVE!

NEW: Twenty-one former federal judges, including multiple former appeals court judges, urge President Biden to clear the federal death row. They include David Tatel (D.C. Cir.) and Diane Wood (7th Cir.), both of whom left the bench earlier this year. www.documentcloud.org/documents/25...

legacy news: Why would someone do this brazen shooting shooter’s statement: I did it because America’s healthcare industry is inhumane legacy news: Perhaps it was video games? shooter’s statement: I am literally citing sources about corporate greed legacy news: I guess we’ll just never know

If McDonald’s employees are finding shooters cops don’t need to make more than $7 an hour.

You will hear and see a lot of things today. A lot of them will turn out to be untrue. Please follow us @thebaltimorebanner.com We're local news. We live here. We are familiar with this family. We're doing everything we can to get it right. www.thebaltimorebanner.com/community/cr...

United HealthCare shooter apparently used a ghost gun, we have our Supreme Court tie-in, folks

if a bunch of the NYPD guys strike you as being like guys that have never been expected to do real police work before, there's a reason for that.

There is a desperate and painfully overdue need for a real news outlet that determines the news is the real and true thing, not just whatever Trump says followed by a smaller-font addendum that lightly contradicts him. Everything he says has a 95% chance of being a lie or wrong and yet it's repeated

“That’s crazy”

A white man killed the United Healthcare CEO on camera and NYPD—the largest and most expensive police department in the country—can’t find him. What a joke

This is a five-alarm fire. www.nytimes.com/2024/12/04/h...

Have they… learned something?

if confirmed Pete Hegseth vows to throw one last rager before assuming his new responsibilities

“Cognitive” is doing a lot of work here.

Did anyone else first see this on Clarissa Explains It All and pined over it the rest of their childhood

The headline understates the claim. Hegseth's mother accused his of "abuse" which is technically "mistreatment," only worse. “On behalf of all the women (and I know it’s many) you have abused in some way, I say … get some help and take an honest look at yourself,” www.nytimes.com/2024/11/29/u...

HOT FROSTY being unwilling to make him wear a an old silk hat the whole time should be disqualifying but i appreciate that they made a cop the bad guy like in the song

Eric Adams eating a leprechaun: so let me tell you about the Thanksgiving Grinch, this man has no gumption, this man has no swagger, this man who comes in and steals the very turkey from our tables in the most beautiful city in the world, a city where an asteroid could hit upon any given day
