Remember that
@dcdoes.bsky.social
professional development event that looked a lot more like a party (a go-go band, acrobats, DJ EZ Street as emcee)? Some of the spending for that event (and others) violated local rules against using public funds for entertainment and food, according to the OIG.

I don't think they can say that which is why they don't. Some of them don't have a problem with what he is saying. The entire caucus should have been up in arms on their COLLEAGUE Ilhan Omar's behalf. They haven't been.

This was a mind-blowing read. It seems preposterous to suggest that $140k should be the poverty line for a family of four, but the math checks out. Also: the current metric for calculating poverty is appalling.

I’m going to be honest with you: The headline is appalling, but the piece, which indeed has an absolutely bizarre tone of nostalgia, is worse.

Listen to Blaze Foley. It will do you good. Bob Dylan said Blaze was his favorite songwriter. Townes Van Zandt said Blaze was one of the most spiritual people he ever met. John Prine covered his work. Merle Haggard tracked down every recording he could get. The public has mostly forgotten.
