A rather splendid Brian Bolland ad for a Palitoy take on Darth Vader’s T.I.E. Fighter, from Dec 1st 1979’s Look-In. I’ve never seen this particular Bolland take on Star Wars merchandise before, and his ads for the franchise during the period are always fun.

Not a great sign when your 12-person private fundraiser includes someone who hates you enough to leak damaging audio

The audio of Mr. Paxton was shared with The Times by an attendee who recorded him speaking at a private fund-raiser in Washington attended by roughly a dozen people. The person, who opposes Mr. Paxton’s campaign and provided the recording to The Times, was granted anonymity because Mr. Paxton’s remarks were private.

One of the things that is going to change is that we’re never ever again going to be able to be dominated by public officials who tell us, ‘Trust the experts,’” Mr. Kennedy said during the Tuesday session.

“If somebody tells you, ‘Masks work, trust the experts,’ A.I. may tell you otherwise,” he added. “If somebody tells you, ‘Social distancing works, trust the experts,’ A.I. may correct that. And if somebody tells you that a vaccine will prevent transmission and infection, or you need to take it to protect your grandmother, A.I. may say it actually doesn’t do that.”

"The court has spoken, Brooklyn's elected leaders have spoken, and most importantly, the voters have spoken." Thank you to @zellnor.bsky.social for this statement in support of a more open transparent, and democratic era for the Brooklyn Democratic Party under future Chair @juliopenabk.com!

@zellnormyrie on Instagram:

"Enough is enough. The court has spoken, Brooklyn's elected leaders have spoken, and most importantly, the voters have spoken- it's time for a renewed Brooklyn Democratic Party that's wholly focused on taking back our democracy and electing Democrats up and down the ballot this November.

"For years, under the old leadership, this was not the focus. The events of the last few weeks demonstrated that clearly but make no mistake, years of losing ground to Republicans, attacking incumbent Democrats, and bringing disrepute to the largest county in the state has taken its toll, and the time for fresh, democratically elected leadership is now.

"I was proud to support my returning District Leader Akel Wiliams when many fellow elected leaders in my district, including County, did not along with a coalition of leaders this past June who will move the party forward in partnership with every Democrat in the borough. I look forward to an open, transparent, and democratic process to elect the next leader of Brooklyn Democratic Party."

In the caption, he wrote, "It's time to turn the page in Brooklyn. @juliopenany for County Leader"
