Warnock: "You can't ask me to be an accomplice to the killing of Alex Pretti and Renee Good. It's to make a butchery of my conscience."

Are you an older penguin looking to age with dignity? The New England Aquarium in Boston might be the place for you.

The aquarium has a geriatric island for endangered penguins that have exceeded their life expectancy and need a little extra care. https://wapo.st/3Lobf5N

Rearranging stuff and found my Mom's old copper molds. I'll never forget the year she made a chopped liver "fish" and used a strawberry slice for its eye.

Mamdani: "I've already had to start get used to the fact that the president will talk about how I look, how I sound, where I'm from, ultimately bc he wants to distract from what I'm fighting for. I'm fighting for the the very working people he ran a campaign to empower that he has since betrayed."

Could you imagine the response if a democratic president said they didn’t know if they had to uphold the Constitution?

How fast would the articles of impeachment be drawn ?

20 minutes at the most

Statement from Elias Law Group Chair Marc Elias

My advice is if your law firm can't say this, get yourself a new law firm.

"Elias Law Group will not be deterred from fighting for democracy in court. There will be no negotiation with this White House about the clients we represent or the lawsuits we bring on their behalf."

so my favorite dive bar in WI passed up showing tonight’s Bucks game so they could show live poll results. when the election was called for Crawford, the whole bar started chanting, β€œFuck El*n”. the bartender pulled out the good stuff and handed out free shots to us allβ€”an absolutely electric nite

I spoke to an expert in authoritarianism, who explained to me that things like this are extremely meaningful and they help protect democracy, even if there’s not a straight line between this and actual legislating

This is a United States Senator

MACK: I was laid off from HHS and now people aren’t getting social services, especially people with disabilities

BANKS: You probably deserved it

MACK: Why did I deserve it?

BANKS: Because you look like a clown

After getting some rest, I am in awe of everyone who continues to lift their voice and speak out. This is a moment for our country, and we must make a choice about the America we want to be.

"I don't want a Disney vacation of our history! I don't a whitewashed history, I don't want a homogenized history. Tell me the wretched truth about America, because that speaks to our greatness" -- 20 hours into his speech, Cory Booker is spitting absolute πŸ”₯

Senator Cory Booker -- nearly 23 hrs into this -- is more coherent than your average elected official speaking (while seated) at an average legislative hearing.

Even if you haven't been watching all along, dip in for a moment -- he is making considerable sense:
