A topic I discussed with Rahm Emanuel on our podcast: the extraordinary cooperation during the Bush-Obama transition of 2008-09. The trust that developed between outgoing and incoming was one of the finest hours of US government. www.youtube.com/watch?v=aTfV...

the transfer to El Salvador of US deportees is, per Pres Bukele, a straight up contract that has “nothing to do w/foreign policy.” The fees we are paying makes their entire prison system “sustainable.” Don’t see how US can make argument that bringing A-G back is some sensitive foreign policy matter

When I get to the Senate, I'll support a bill to ban Congressional stock trading on day one. No elected official should be cashing in while the American people see their retirements go down the drain.

Yesterday @joshgerstein.bsky.social wrote “Reuveni essentially says that the government is handling the case contrary to his advice.” If Reuveni said words to that effect, then I’m not surprised he’s been placed on leave.

The #HandsOff protest in Culver City is HUGE—multiple thousands here (I heard multiple tens of thousands in the biggest Los Angeles protest, in DTLA). Safe & positive vibes. Cars are beeping in solidarity. Wide demographic but a LOT of older folks and a lot of concern about Medicare/Social Security.

Man, the big huge protests in places like Boston, DC, NY, Chicago, and Minneapolis are awe-inspiring. But my heart is gonna explode looking at these crowds of people out in tiny Maine towns and super red Alabama towns. Places where 15% of the population is on the street corner with more coming!

I asked the one high ranking policeman I saw on 5th Ave why there were so few police. He said “We did not expect anything like this. Don’t tell anyone but I’ve only got 44 officers out here — and it’s a great crowd, great event, no incidents.”

There’s a shitload of federal employees in this area since it’s right near Aberdeen Proving Ground and Edgewood Arsenal, so people here have been feeling the uncertainty since day one even if they did send the odious Andy Harris to the House of Representatives.
