All of which is to say: Supreme Court leaks are rare and remarkable, but they are not unprecedented. I've done some research on this, and I'm just sharing for anyone who might be interested in this wider context. /end

GOP legislator among those criticizing Missouri's governor for trying to prosecute a reporter. "Journalists responsibly sounding an alarm on data privacy is not hacking." https://t.co/ITCFy0KbQl

From Nebraska, the latest in a wave of nonprofit news startups from veteran ex-legacy-media journalists. Others in the region include @KansasReflector and @MO_Independent.

It's time to announce the next chapter in Nebraska journalism.
I'm the new editor of the Flatwater Free Press, a statewide journalism nonprofit devoted to telling important investigative & feature stories and sharing them with all Nebraskans -- no matter where you get your news.

@HaleyKMBC @KCURMichael @Jeremy_Danner Twice, in 1995. Only knew them as the "Creep" band before that, but after those shows I was a fan 4 life.

Iowa journalist acquitted on charges stemming from her coverage of a protest last year. A win for press freedom, although shocking that this ever went to trial in the first place.

NOT GUILTY ON ALL CHARGES for @andreamsahouri of @DMRegister.

Asked what she meant by her statement “the enemy is within,” Pelosi says “it means that we have members of Congress who want to bring guns on the floor and have threatened violence on other members of Congress.”

“I think the president should be impeached,” Kassebaum tells @jonshorman. “I think he’s the one that should be held responsible.” https://t.co/Wmur3eVFtc

The scene on the House floor today: Gas masks, guns drawn, a bookshelf barricade. Vivid eyewitness account from @Casey_J_Wooten. https://t.co/VgRSvY7MbX

The leaders of the private border wall group that Kobach is involved with have been charged with fraud by the U.S. attorney's office in New York. Kobach isn't charged, but he is the group's general counsel and touted his involvement throughout the campaign https://t.co/wiilxjjdfz

Right now, KC viewers can watch this doc on Kansas women in politics. I know @HaleyKMBC was stoked that she got to interview Nancy Kassebaum Baker.

Tribute/obit by @washingtonpost for longtime copy editor Anne Ferguson-Rohrer. Sounds like she was just as valuable to the Post as her husband, Scott Rohrer, was to us at @nationaljournal for many years. RIP, Anne.

Anne Ferguson-Rohrer, Washington Post editor and ‘traffic cop’ of news flow, dies at 58 https://t.co/nDSE57AVnE Anne was beloved by all of us in the newsroom. She died far too young. RIP.

Always pause when I get to this page in a book I’ve been reading to my daughter, nearly overcome with yearning for pre-Covid days and nights...

@HaleyKMBC @whichthat Now that I know you’re sixes I’m having second thoughts.

Echoes of Nixon Defense sec Elliot Richardson, who said: "He was never able to accept ... that he was President of the United States. If you're President, there isn't any 'they'; the President has to be first among 'us.'"—Theodore White, "Breach of Faith" https://t.co/QX5t9O7KtF

@remhq Thanks for enunciating, Michael. Never realized that lyric was "I have water, I have rum."

[Deron Lee @deron_lee]

@AlexClearfield @dcdufour @NewYorker @BrianJFrench We'd never get it by Jeff. Maybe could work more Mötley Crüe references into copy instead.

[Deron Lee @deron_lee]

@remhq @m_millsey @mradamscott @ScottAukerman @youtubemusic I see that "Kenneth" now comes w/ an "Explicit" warning, but am I correct in thinking that, at the time, the f-bomb in the song went unnoticed/uncensored on radio and even broadcast TV? (On SNL, Michael conspicuously turned his back to the audience on that line.)

[Deron Lee @deron_lee]

I appreciated the @MorningEdition interview w/ constitutional scholar @BrettschneiderC today. Clarity is needed in this moment. https://t.co/vrrNi9864e
