Valerie Jablow @vjablow.bsky.social · 16/10/2026Yes. I have often wondered if the reason that judges are not jailing administration actors who blatantly & repeatedly violate court orders is that the judges are afraid and/or threatened. 000 0

Valerie Jablow @vjablow.bsky.social · 15/10/2026Yes. This outlet was started in the wake of the Post deciding that actual journalism wasn't its thing, esp for local DC reporting.
