Yellow dog Democrat from Massachusetts. My record is spotless except for that time in 1990 when I voted for Bill Weld over John Silber for governor.

Trump poised to fire US attorney for resisting effort to charge NY AG Letitia James: Sources President Trump is expected to fire the U.S. attorney in Eastern Virginia after he was unable to find evidence of mortgage fraud against NY AG Letitia James, sources say.

This is a clearly impeachable offense he’s reportedly going to finish committing tomorrow. abcnews.go.com/US/trump-poi...

Texas Man Born to U.S. Soldier on U.S. Army Base Abroad Deported He has no citizenship to any country, despite SCOTUS case

What? Wasn’t Sen Ted Cruz born abroad too? Should we deport him?

I rarely post personal things. But I need to talk about my 4-year-old niece, Hope.

She has a rare disease. A drug called elamipretide has helped her survive.

But the FDA recently denied its approval.

Now, her health hangs in the balance.

Please share her story & urge the FDA to reconsider. 🧡

Detainees at an immigrant detention center in Texas have sent the outside world a desperate message: SOS.

A drone captured the image of 31 men banding together, using their bodies to form an SOS in the dirt yard of the Bluebonnet immigration detention facility.

Just days ago, dozens of Venezuelan…

From Fox’s Chief National Security reporter. Who can’t seem to get any airtime lately. For some reason.

A *senior administration official* told POLITICO on Monday afternoon that they are involved in multiple text threads with other administration staffers on what to do with Waltz, following the bombshell report that the top aide inadvertently included Atlantic Editor-in-Chief Jeffrey Goldberg in a private chat discussing a military strike on Houthis.

β€œHalf of them are saying he’s never going to survive or shouldn’t survive,” said the official, who like others was granted anonymity to discuss internal deliberation. And two high-level White House aides have floated the idea that Waltz should resign in order to prevent the president from being put in a β€œbad position.”

β€œIt was reckless not to check who was on the thread. It was reckless to be having that conversation on Signal. You can’t have recklessness as the national security adviser,” the official said.

This senior admin official glosses over that it was a potential crime for EVERYONE on the chat to share classified information on it.

And Politico doesn't tell us whether the SAO was on the chat. Or whether the threads discussing this are ALSO on Signal.

This was chilling. Grateful for 60 Minutes, its brave guests, Scott Pelley and Lesley Stahl leading interviews on what’s going down at DOJ, FBI and CFPB. Without fear or favor. Please make sure to watch. And share with everyone you know to watch. It matters.

A 71-year-old woman has died after her oxygen supply was abruptly cut off in response to the United States’ freeze on USAID funding.

Elonβ€”the richest man on Earthβ€”is gutting the world’s largest provider of food aid. He could end world hunger single-handedly and still be the richest man alive. But he won’t.

Instead, he spent 40 million on Super Bowl ads attacking USAID!

Stand with USAID: share this counter-ad…

I remember reading The Myth of Sisyphus, or at least parts of it, for a philosophy class a hundred years ago, but I seem to have forgotten that Camus said that. I have googled and see he also said, β€œThere's no worse punishment than worthless, hopeless labor.” I can relate to that.
