79/ LOVE. 🔥

Via Hayley Miller:

The court is now in recess for lunch until 2:15 p.m. ET.

James, the New York attorney general, seized on the opportunity to take a jab at Trump, seeming to mock the former president's claim that she "doesn't know what a 40 Wall Street is," referring to one of his Manhattan properties.

I'm so tired of pricks like #ElonMusk unimaginatively recycling literal Nazi and neonazi rhetoric while pretending they are heroes of #FreeSpeech for attacking #wokeness. He's never cared about freedom -- he bought #Twitter to 'oWn ThE lIbS' like a faschy little halfwit troll.

Jenna Ellis's long, strange trip to disgrace

In court, she's contrite. On social media? Not so much.

Public Notice

@meredith Well, there was an ulterior motive to what I said 😉, but that's okay, you don't qualify yet anyway!

@GottaLaff @MichelleRNCHPN Oh, good. I know it's important to you, and your updates are important to us!

@GottaLaff @MichelleRNCHPN The first thing I did was check my calendar, too 🤣

I don't have anything scheduled on the 6th, and I'd happily trade places with you if I could. I could catch up later, and no one is breathlessly waiting for timely updates from me, the way we do with you.

I hope your appointment goes well and if it's not routine, may you get good news.

@dansinker @murtaugh I went thru Centralia in 2003,and had the opportunity to chat with the mayor, who had been elected by the other 6 people still living there (this was his house, on what had been a street solidly lined with rowhouses). It's a cool metaphor but not really an apt one, because the remaining folks only subscribed to one conspiracy theory, and held only the government responsible for the situation, with no animus against anyone else. And lovely nature rules there by now.

Thread from Mueller She Wrote. Intro by Brandon Van Grack: 1/...

The filing provides further confirmation that some of the classified #documents are incredibly sensitive. Some docs require special equipmt to allow for the discussion of the docs. Cant think of another mishandling/leak/espionage case involving the disclosure and use of such docs.

MuellerSheWrote:

Okay. This is one of the BEST #JackSmith clapbacks I’ve read in a while. #Trump #TrumpIndictment #legal

@GottaLaff @Sharonbw There was a period in my life when I moved 4 times in 7 years. Each time, moving was so horrible I said I'm never doing this again, I'm going to live here till I die!

Now I've been living in my townhouse for 37 years, and while I definitely don't miss the hassle, I do miss the opportunity to decorate a new space, get rid of clutter, and find cool new people and places.

I hope the move goes well!
