Do think it’s notable here that the pool report—the journalists not attending the event, but actually covering it—was the correct one

Today marks the one year anniversary of Epstein survivor Virginia Giuffre's death. The survivors aren't going anywhere. substack.com/home/post/p-...

The Daily Beast’s Executive Editor witnessed a jaw-dropping security breach. And then it got worse.

Anyway. I’m glad nobody was hurt and I’m sure the journalists who attended the WHCD will not center themselves and their personal experiences and instead remain focused on holding the powerful accountable and informing the people about their government.

it’s a chaotic situation here at Versailles but we’re hearing some chanting about bread prices?? I think it goes without saying that this is an attack on all of us

Number of people who go bankrupt every year because of medical bills or illness-related work loss: 🇦🇺 0 🇨🇦 0 🇩🇰 0 🇫🇮 0 🇫🇷 0 🇩🇪 0 🇮🇸 0 🇮🇪 0 🇮🇹 0 🇯🇵 0 🇳🇱 0 🇳🇴 0 🇵🇹 0 🇪🇸 0 🇸🇪 0 🇬🇧 0 🇺🇸 530,000 There’s a lesson there.

To all journalists and news organizations attending tonight's White House Correspondents’ Association Dinner:

COACH SULLY: “Shift your eyes to this monstrosity… one year. One President. Donating his salary is just a headline. It doesn’t offset the BILLIONS Trump is accumulating elsewhere.” 💰

Arizona! Adrian Fontes has been standing between you and Trump's bid to get your confidential voting data. He has focused on election security, expanding voter access and advocating for mail-in voting systems. Let's keep him fighting for us. Re-Elect Adrian Fontes Arizona Secretary of State

He seems nice.

A Fox News poll just found that voters prefer Democrats over Republicans on the economy for the first time in 16+ years. www.foxnews.com/politics/vot...

So this never happened. The Iranians were saying yesterday this was not going to happen. The Trump WH put out more happy talk on Friday which was dutifully reported by their favorite stenographers in the media, who do this every week. bsky.app/profile/atru...

#ResistanceUnited #wtpBLUE #wtpBlueResists #DemsUnited #DV1 🗣Midterm: Sec of State AZ Who do you turn to when the integrity of your elections is at stake? Keep your incumbent 🌟Adrian_Fontes. He’s made voting fairer and easier & will keep it that way. azsos.gov/adrian-fontes

I enjoy rereading favorite books, but now I struggle with wanting to get through my TBR list and knowing I only have a certain number of years left to do so. #BookSky 📚 #TBR

This is the kind of thing that sounds like it would be true without looking into the data, but looking at the data shows the opposite. When cops pull over lots of drivers, they don't pull over bad drivers more. They pull over Black drivers more. In many places, about 5X more.🤷🏿‍♂️

Journalists who are still attending the WHCD this year don't seem to get just how much things have changed. It isn't 1998. You're not going to pose for cute photos with the West Wing stars at "nerd prom." You're enabling a regime who's assaulting your own profession & you're torching your career.

“There is no reason to don a tuxedo and celebrate this racist wannabe tyrant. There is nothing to be gained by showing up to the dinner with the hopes of offering any small act of protest. Members of the industry should skip the event instead” - from Zeteo

😭😭😭

Corruption in plain sight.

“Be still and the earth will speak to you.” ~ Hopi

Pope Leo turned the question around like the boss he is.

Hey, #AZ - every vote will count! Four years ago, AG Mayes won by the super-slim margin of 280 votes. She has been a tough advocate for AZ and against corruption. We need her to be reelected, hopefully by a larger margin.

CBS: The Senate once again rejected a resolution to limit Trump's authority to continue military operations against Iran, with only Rand Paul breaking GOP ranks to support it. You know it's bad when Rand Paul & Marjorie Taylor Greene are the voice of reason in the room. #ProudBlue #Pinks #SheShed

Very cool!

"One patriot missile costs between $4 and $4.5 million. An Iranian drone costs about $30,000 - $50,000. We cannot keep throwing Ferraris at Frisbees." Rep. Ted Lieu

Trump is fighting total war against wokeness as his eyes close and his mouth droops

Ghislaine Maxwell abused young women & girls alongside Epstein for years. As young as 14. In multiple states. Convicted in a federal court. She belongs behind bars. I’m beyond disgusted that any of our colleagues would suggest a pardon. The real question is why has no one else been convicted?

MS NOW: The Trump admin has been making taxpayer payouts to people connected to Trump world: $1.25 million for Carter Page $1.25 million for Michael Flynn $5 million to the estate of Ashli Babbitt Lawyers for Trump and the IRS are in talks to settle Trump's $10 billion lawsuit against the IRS

But Hunter Biden sold art!

This little video clip from President Joe Biden in 2024 aged most ironically. You all should have listened to him. I'd happily take Joe Biden, his slow gait, and team of seasoned pros in a New York minute over this fascist regime of depraved drunken oligarch pedophiles. youtube.com/shorts/d1nmb...

DeLAURO: Do you know how many manufacturing jobs the US lost per day during the first year of President Trump's second term? LUTNICK: I don't know DeLAURO: More than 100 per day. This isn't a trade policy that delivers for working people.

MADELEINE DEAN: Why did you lie to the New York Post about your relationship with Epstein? LUTNICK: The House Oversight Committee and I agreed-- DEAN: Reclaiming my time. I do not accept that answer. We are our own committee. You're dodging the question. The coverup continues.

MADELEINE DEAN: Beyond Adfin, what other financial ties do you have with Jeffrey Epstein? LUTNICK: As I said, I'm gonna answe--- DEAN: You're the Commerce Secretary. We have a right to ask this question and get it answered

Trump told you he’d run America like a business. He is. It’s called asset stripping. You sell the profitable pieces, gut the workforce, load it with debt, and walk away rich while everyone else holds the bag. Congratulations. You didn’t elect a president. You hired a liquidator.

The Republican Congress.

This is Fitz and June. Fitz just got here and thinks this place is pretty great. June was here first and thinks it's time to return Fitz. 13/10 for both (TT: muester)

This is SO GOOD! Well done, @wajali.bsky.social ! It was nice to see Doug Wilson silenced for once.

Van Hollen: "Do you dispute the fact that Sheikh Tahnoon invested $500 million in World Liberty Financial just before the president was inaugurated?" Bessent: "I'm not aware of that. I dispute your linkages." Van Hollen: "Seriously? It's been so widely reported."

BENNET: Do you agree that 89% of children who died from flu were unvaccinated? RFK Jr: I don't know the exact number BENNET: That is the exact number, Secretary Kennedy RFK Jr: *death growls* BENNET: You took down the HHS communications promoting the flu vaccine. Do you regret that?

HASSAN: Does the president know about your self-promoting videos using official HHS resources? RFK Jr: I didn't know about a number of those videos. I just happened to not see them. HASSAN: So you don't know how your own team is managing official resources?

VAN HOLLEN: What you've done is prove a windfall to very wealthy people who don't pay taxes BESSENT: Why would I do that? What's your theory of the case? VAN HOLLEN: Because this administration time after time has tiled the tax code in favor of very wealthy people

So much false equivalence in media on gerrymandering in Texas vs California & Virginia. California and Virginia maps approved by the voters. That's a huge difference not enough people pointing out

As part of the restoration of the rule of law, every lawyer in the Trump admin who touched this file needs to go to jail. Sanctions and disbarment are what you do for private abuses of the legal system. Abusing the government power of criminal indictment is another matter, and they keep doing it.

Texas republicans illegally gerrymandered their maps and never once asked voters how they feel about it. California and Virginia let voters decide. That’s the difference. They started this fight and Democrats are going to fucking finish it.

"Whaaaaaa whaaaaaa whaaaaa! They did what *we* did. Only better. NOT FAIR!!!"

President Donald Trump has once again raised health concerns following his appearance during a live broadcast on Fox News.
