This is the correct answer constitutionally, legally, and politically.

All I will add the the Feinstien discourse today is it’s not her Senate seat.

It’s California’s Senate seat. And through that, the Senate seat of the 39 MILLION people she is tasked to represent.

If she cannot do her job, she should resign. It’s not personal. It’s democracy.

I honestly have a lot of empathy for people who are having trouble letting go of Twitter because they used to be popular, or very engaged, there. I made amazing relationships there, and there was a time when I really loved the feedback loop I had. (I didn’t care that much about being “known”, but I valued the access it gave me.) It’ll be years before the fediverse reaches its own equivalent strengths, and I don’t fault anyone for struggling to transition from a familiar (if failing) platform.
The beats American journalists cover vary widely by gender and other factors, according to a new analysis of a Pew Research Center survey. Men are far more likely than women to cover certain beats – especially sports – while journalists who are women are more likely than men to cover news about social issues, education and health. https://www.pewresearch.org/fact-tank/2023/04/04/us-journalists-beats-vary-widely-by-gender-and-other-factors/

Just want to give a big shout-out to Teri Kanefield @Teri_Kanefield.

Teri was one of the first popular political journalists with a big following on Twitter to establish a real presence here. While many others dipped their toes in the Mastodon pond and went back, Teri has continued to grace us with her excellent reporting and analysis.

She consistently hits it out of the park! Like her thread today on the Trump indictment >>> https://law-and-politics.online/@Teri_Kanefield/110142274171633282

Thank you Teri!

Attached: 1 image We have the indictment and statement of facts. I'll start with the alleged facts. It was written for public consumption, so easy to read. The defendant DONALD J. TRUMP repeatedly and fraudulently falsified New York business records to conceal criminal conduct that hid damaging information from the voting public during the 2016 presidential election . . . in violation of election laws. With some tax fraud thrown in. 1/ https://www.manhattanda.org/wp-content/uploads/2023/04/Donald-J.-Trump-Indictment.pdf https://www.manhattanda.org/wp-content/uploads/2023/04/Donald-J.-Trump-SOF.pdf
