If Democrats retake the Senate, Warren will surely become chair of the Senate Banking Committee and, as such, in a position to investigate, humiliate and ultimately destroy Scott Bessent.

Trump’s plan to save the midterms is…help Russia. The Trump-Vance-Kushner-Witkoff approach to the war has always been weaken Ukraine so they bow down to Putin. It hasn’t worked. With nearly two years of this, Ukraine has shown it can thwart ground offensives and strike Russian oil without US help.

This is apparently happening in multiple areas in the capital. The DC board of elections has been made aware of it and have been in touch with the National Guard to address it. It’s no accident.

Got to see & hold the most famous Roman coin in history, the Ides of March coin Brutus had struck after assassinating Julius Caesar. The numismatist said it was Caesar putting his own face on coinage that precipitated his assassination, so Brutus doing the same thing did not go over well.

Rubio is petulantly annoyed because he gave this big speech in Athens about The Future of Western Civilization -- and coincidentally, on the very same day, his ambassador to Greece gets caught soliciting a donor to pay off her $100,000 credit-card bill.

This afternoon in Marble Hill, a New Yorker was shot by an ICE agent in a residential neighborhood. Early reports indicate agents surrounded him and a 5-year-old child in his car before firing multiple rounds. We believe the child was physically unharmed.

This is an unconscionable and incredibly serious situation. I have called the President; when we speak I will demand that he ends all ICE enforcement actions in our city. I will not stand by while ICE agents terrorize our communities.

Our thoughts are with the injured New Yorker and his family tonight. We are praying for his recovery.

Get ICE out of our neighborhoods. Get ICE out of our hospitals. Get ICE off our streets. Get ICE away from our children.

Abolish ICE.

Fun story about one of the first dogfights between the Zero and Hellcat. The attack on 10/5/1943 was the biggest carrier raid of the war so far, 3 fleet carriers and 3 light carriers. Flight ops were a mess so planes began heading to the island captured by the Japanese in December 1941 on their own🧵

For a multitude of reasons AI makes me sad. It takes the joy of writing and discards it as a chore. It takes the beauty of a single brushstroke from an artist that has spent a lifetime honing their craft, and reduces it to a rubber stamp. The journey is the reward. It’s not a consequence.
