At our awesome #JohnsHopkinsUniversity campus in Washington DC, across Pennsylvania Avenue from the National Gallery of Art, a barista masterpiece from Bryan! 🙌🎨🫶

It’s that time of year again—the World Economic Forum in Davos kicks off today. Once again, global elites will gather to discuss everything, except their own massive tax avoidance and evasion. 🧵 Thread -->

Extraordinary- Associated Press:

CNN head honcho Mark Thompson called up Jim Acosta -- who occasionally gets better ratings than the network's nightly hosts -- and asked him to move over to the midnight to 2 AM shift, which is the graveyard for cable. @oliverdarcy.bsky.social with the scoop! www.status.news/p/jim-acosta...

Excellent question and actually a real dilemma for news organizations and outlets of all kinds.

Fox & Friends this morning described Melania Trump as the "Second Lady"

Beautiful day at Glen Echo Park but a bit too icy for Lily! ❄️🐶💕

Perfect speech by 62-yr-old actress Demi Moore at the Golden Globes

This was Stonehenge at the start of the day yesterday. The winter solstice is the shortest day of the year. Something tells me every day is gonna feel long for us going forward no matter how the sky looks.

Yo-Yo Ma plays the prelude to Bach’s Suite No. 1 in G major at the reopening of the Notre Dame in Paris... And I'm out....

Buried deep inside Mike Johnson’s short-term government funding bill is a 𝗰𝗼𝗻𝗴𝗿𝗲𝘀𝘀𝗶𝗼𝗻𝗮𝗹 𝗽𝗮𝘆 𝗿𝗮𝗶𝘀𝗲 — the first since 2009. If approved this week, lawmakers will get an annual pay raise as high as $6,600. Outrageous!

“Luigi Mangione was…carrying a handwritten manifesto that criticized health care companies for putting profits above care, according to law enforcement. He is in custody on local charges...He has not been arrested or charged in connection with the killing.”#CEO www.nytimes.com/live/2024/12...

#UnitedHeathcare #CEO fatally shot in Midtown Manhattan just before speech to annual investors conference. Shocking. Tragic. Also - what did he have to say.

Waiting for MAGA to start whining about this after #Trump announced he was tapping #CharlesKushner for Ambassador to France.

Breakfast amid the remains of Friday dinner party. Is it wrong to take a light leftover sip of Adrianna Vineyard Chardonnay before 11AM on Saturday? Asking for a friend.

Elon spends his days playing Diablo IV, taking credit for things other people did, plotting the destruction of his enemies and the American economy (except his sectors) under the guise of being a truth-telling crusader, and posting stupid, juvenile tweets as the new co-President of the United States

Salk’s Joanne Chory was a genius & amazingly kind person from a family of brilliant generous people, descended from Lebanese immigrants. Her sister Mary Ann was my best friend and I enjoyed many a wonderful dinner with the Chory’s. So sad about her loss. So proud of her legacy.

#JackSmith moves to #dismiss #Trump #2020election case. #NYT: The dept’s policy that sitting presidents may not be prosecuted “is categorical,does not turn on the gravity of the crimes charged, the strength of the govt’s proof or the merits of the prosecution, which the govt stands fully behind”

Maybe people will pay more attention to climate change when they realise that it could impact their wine! Another great article by @louiseschiavone.bsky.social

Matt Gaetz out as candidate for #Trump #Justice chief

Keep in mind when the Trump/RFKJr strategy for health care goes south, and people get sick, the Trumps and the Kennedys and the Musks will always have enough financial resources to save themselves or their families.

Oh boy

One byproduct of this is that the House ethics investigation of Gaetz is now over

Wonder what Kevin McCarthy thinks of this

Do they still have wine & cheese parties? Have not seen one in years. Also - which “ identity” is he talking about - because if it’s women, would like to remind him of the unrelenting near-Taliban style anti-woman messaging of Trump & Vance. And it only gets worse w/ the other “identities.”
