(1/3) I think Ed makes a pretty strong point here about Lindsey Halligan: She hasn't been lawfully appointed under 28 U.S.C. § 546, and as he also points out, his view is supported by a 1986 OLC opinion written by some guy named … {checks notes} … Samuel A. Alito. (1/3)

BREAKING NYT:   Trump just fired a U.S. attorney who insisted on following a court order.   Michele Beckwith, the top federal prosecutor in Sacramento, was fired hours after she reminded a Border Patrol chief to abide by court-ordered restrictions on immigration raids.

I’m not exaggerating when I say millions of $$ are going down the drain to fund Trump’s National Guard stunt in LA. Let's do the math: $71M for food and necessities $37M in payroll Over $4M in logistics supplies $3.5M in travel – the list goes on. It’s time to wake up, America.

It's really weird to demand accountability from a NYC mayoral candidate for a deadly NYC shooting rather than the current NYC mayor, an ex-cop who campaigned on a "tough on crime" platform and promptly got indicted for crimes
Wall Street Journal headline and deck: "New York Shooting Puts Mamdani on the Spot Over Policing Views: The killing of four people in a Midtown office building rattled a city where mass attacks are rare and violent crime has declined."
