BREAKING: Adam Frisch just conceded to Lauren Boebert. While it’s not the news we hoped for, remember that in 2020, she won by almost 25,000 votes. This time around, she won by slightly over 500 votes. Let’s all make sure the next time Lauren Boebert runs she loses—badly.
I was described by Steve Bannon (and, sigh, many others) as a pit bull. Jack Smith makes me look like a golden retriever puppy. So tenacious and fearless. And apolitical and ethical.
Yesterday, I said that the time has come for a new generation to lead our magnificent @HouseDemocrats. It is with pride, gratitude and confidence in their abilities that I salute @RepJeffries, @RepKClark & @RepPeteAguilar for being ready and willing to assume this responsibility.
If you demand a full investigation as "$2 billion" is trending like crazy on Twitter as Americans demand to know what White House favors Jared Kushner exchanged for the massive $2 billion investment his firm received from Saudi Arabia after — retweet and follow us!
BREAKING: Jared Kushner starts to sweat as "$2 billion" trends like crazy on Twitter as Americans demand to know what White House favors he exchanged for the massive $2 billion investment his firm received from Saudi Arabia after Trump left office. RT TO DEMAND AN INVESTIGATION!
“I felt he was like a glider up there, he was circling gently. But it was only going in one direction ultimately.”
Hugh Bonneville @hughbon writes in his new memoir with great tenderness about his father’s journey with dementia. “I was blessed to know him,” he tells me.
“I was intimidated and intrigued by [Maggie Smith] on day one of filming, and I felt the same on the final day,” says Downton Abbey star Hugh Bonneville @hughbon. “You better be on your best game when you come on set with her, because she’s determined to give her best game.”
“I think we’re seeing the unwinding not of a company but of a person,” @profgalloway says of Elon Musk and Twitter. “I think this is an individual who has demonstrated a total lack of grace, has no guardrails around him, and is going to see his wealth probably cut in half.”
“The best thing we can do is take the best of the worst characteristics of [tech billionaires], put them into a blender, and create kind of the ubermensch of tech Illuminati douchebags.” @EdwardNorton & @rianjohnson on Miles Bron, as seen in their new film Glass Onion. @KnivesOut
“A whole new mystery, a whole new cast” populates @rianjohnson’s Glass Onion, the sequel to @KnivesOut, very much in the tradition of Agatha Christie’s murder-mysteries, Johnson tells me. Star @EdwardNorton says it’s “a wonderful piece of entertainment in anxious times.”
Making @rianjohnson’s Glass Onion “was like getting to go to adult theater camp – and by midway through, we were hoping our parents would never pick us up,” says @EdwardNorton. “I’m not sure any of us have ever had more fun.”
Spoke to @amanpour@CNN.
#Russia wants us to concentrate on this one incident in #Poland. But the reason we are even talking about it is Russian aggression.
To end this war once and for all: send more arms, including modern air defence, to #Ukraine.

“I don’t think [Putin] will ever leave Russia… He is considered to be a loser by most of his inner circle,” says journalist Mikhail Zygar @zygaro.
“His era is over. And he knows probably that if he leaves Russia, there is a possibility he will not return.”
In his new memoir Playing Under the Piano, @hughbon takes the reader through his career from Downton Abbey to Paddington – but tells me “I found myself writing about my father & his journey into dementia… I realize I think now… it’s really a love letter to him and my mother.”
Russian journalist Mikhail Zygar @zygaro recently got married, but says that because he is gay, “there is a huge propagandist campaign against us,” with TV hosts “cursing us.” But at the same time, he says “we received literally thousands of personal messages” of support.
