I just spoke to NYC Comptroller Brad Lander as he left police custody following his arrest at immigration court. Here’s what he said:

This week I decided to leave CBS News. CBS is a place I loved so much that, after leaving for The New York Times, I returned in 2023 for a new role that had been created for me. But it's becoming a different place now. And I realized now is the time to pursue an independent path. (1/3)

My band MURKY CIRCUS just released its debut EP, CIRCUS FIRSTUS. Listen to it here — now! open.spotify.com/album/2iXQkJ...

New release I mixed/mastered for Brooklyn artist Jaysun Silver. A true DIY juggernaut album - ten songs that all clock in at under 20 minutes. It's raw, it's punk, it's spiky. Recorded and produced by my good friend Stanley John Mitchell (of the Drongos). jaysunsilver.bandcamp.com/album/no-exc...

The chair of the Iowa Democratic Party Black Caucus tell me "the fate of democracy itself" is at stake in the 2024 election, citing Donald Trump's comment about being a dictator only "on day one": "Once he gets a taste of that potato chip, he's gonna want to eat the whole bowl."

I embedded an experiment in latest survey to test effect of attributing the "poisoning the blood" language to Trump... GOP voters inclined to agree with language to begin with, and attributing it to Trump just increases their acceptance, especially among MAGA More: www.cbsnews.com/news/cbs-new...

Frank Luntz, veteran pollster and longtime Republican consultant, told me that that he'd bet on Donald Trump winning the 2024 election. “The guy's a survivor," Luntz said in Des Moines after the final GOP debate before the Iowa caucuses. www.tiktok.com/@cbsnews/vid...

Ron DeSantis campaign volunteers in Iowa told me why they would not support Donald Trump even if he became the Republican presidential nominee: "Am I willing to vote for a guy who's likely to be a convicted felon? I can't do that." www.tiktok.com/@cbsnews/vid...
