I refuse to let hopelessness prevail. This may just be one essay, by a lawyer few have heard of, in a newsletter read by a fraction of the public. But I will not stay silent.

Will you?

He knows it. They know it. They've always known it. Amongst themselves, they joke about it. They tell stories about it. They swap advice on how to deal with it.

But most importantly, to everyone else, they lie about it.

MADELEINE DEAN: The president is unhinged. He's unwell

JOHNSON: A lot of folks on your side are too

D: Oh my god, please. That performance in front of the generals?

J: I didn't see it

D: It's so dangerous! Our allies are looking elsewhere. Our enemies are laughing. You have a POTUS who's unwell.

Just to note. January 23, 2019 there was a vote to reopen government (HJ RES 28, roll call vote 46) when the govt had been shut down for 30 days.

Mike Johnson voted “no” on that.

They didn’t seem to mind shutdowns then

Rather than listen to second-hand reports about PM @mark-carney.bsky.social and his plans for adapting Canada's Economy for a changing World....

Take 10m to LISTEN to a leader outline solutions and promote a blueprint for a future of domestic and global success

Today’s noon-time (UTC +1/BST) picture of the sky.

A cloud-filled sky. At the bottom, threatening dark grey, bubbling up across lighter greys. A vague sun-shaped glow is near the centre.

🚨 IMPORTANT THREAD 🚨

People are protesting the Broadview ICE facility tonight. This will likely be an extremely high-risk action. I caution you to consider your risk level before attending. I will not attend.

Attendance risks your safety, but also the safety of Broadview residents + detainees. 1/6

It looks like you're trying to be a dictator. Would you like to:
• Demand a private company fire someone?
• Get someone who said something mean about you fired?
• Have the DOJ prosecute your enemies?

I am just finishing James Comey’s 3rd novel, “FDR Drive.” He’s a great writer. I’ve read all three. I read aloud to my husband every night and so I know what a smooth and intelligent writer Comey is. Funny too!
