This Robin Williams thread will brighten up your day 🧵
1. His improvised scene in Good Will Hunting made the cameraman laugh so hard the camera started shaking. Matt Damon's reaction is authentic.
Having a Coke and a smile while you willingly show classified information to those who shouldn’t see it, which could put American lives in jeopardy, is the definition of “Me First, America Last”.

Speaking as a Watergate historian, there’s nowhere on thousands of hours of Nixon tapes where Nixon makes any comment as clear, as clearly illegal, and as clearly self-aware as this Trump tape.
The Trump audio:
"See as president I could have declassified it. Now I can't, you know, but this is still a secret."
"Now we have a problem," a staffer responds.
It never goes away:
MAGA: “Trump just did the same thing that Biden/Hillary did!”
Me: “Do you think what Biden/Hillary did was wrong?”
MAGA: “Yes! Lock her up!/Impeach Biden!”
Me: “So if Trump did the same thing what should happen to him?
MAGA: “…
….
Shut up, RINO.”
This level of misconduct should shock every American conscience. Indeed, given what we know now, not charging Trump under these facts would be an immense scandal, an abject failure of the rule of law. https://t.co/yXDZp3IYbW
That’s about as clear as it gets. Donald Trump and MAGA Republicans are responsible for killing Roe v. Wade. And if you vote for them, they’ll go even further.
Spoke to @SenFeinstein today for a brief minute. I asked her how she was feeling and also about the well-wishes she's heard from colleagues. This is how she responded.

🚨🚨MAJOR BREAKING: A woman who accused Rudy Giuliani of sexual harassment has filed a 70-page complaint in New York Supreme Court that is chock full of graphic allegations and personal text messages.
Noelle Dunphy in January filed a summons — the first step in the civil legal process — in which she claimed that Giuliani hired her for “business development work” in 2019, didn’t pay her what she was promised, and then fired her in 2021. The summons alleged that the former mayor made several anti-Semitic and racist remarks during “confused and hostile alcohol-laced tirades,” and demanded sexual favors.
The actual lawsuit filed today goes into far more detail, including accusations that Giuliani forced her to have oral sex and intercourse, details of his alleged sexual preferences, and the revelation that Dunphy recorded some of their interactions. It seeks $10 million in damages.
