@jaimesh73714925 @DeJourAmour @Variety A Complete Unknown was a far better performance for @RealChalamet than Marty Supreme.

Trump doesn't pay money to people he owes money to. Beware federal employees if you choose to quit your job in exchange for Trump's promise to pay you until September.

[LaTosha Brown @MsLaToshaBrown]

Do not quit your federal job!

Good morning and Happy Tuesday to everyone who agrees that Jim Acosta was one of the few watchable journalists on CNN before they let him go, and MSNBC should prioritize hiring him to replace Andrea Mitchell or Katy Tur.

Or BOTH.

@TonyPerkinsFMTV That's great news, Tony!

Dear President Biden:

You have "immunity" for "official acts."

Releasing Special Counsel Jack Smith's report would be an "official act."

Time to play some hardball on your way out, Mr. President.

🔊It’s not every day you hear a probation officer calling for probation reform—when they do, it’s time to listen…

"We need people out there working, paying taxes, contributing to their community. WHY NOT have them do that while they’re on probation and parole?" – Marvin Spencer, Black Hawk County Probation Officer 🚨

With 15 years of experience working inside Iowa’s probation system, Marvin knows what works—and where there’s room to grow.

In this upcoming legislative session in Iowa, we have an opportunity to pass meaningful reforms that reward hard work, build skills, and set individuals up for success.

Follow our work in Iowa + receive updates on our legislation that will create work credits and education incentives for people on probation! 💪

Maybe Dr. Oz owning $550,000 in UnitedHealth stock and seeking to run the agency that oversees UnitedHealth's biggest cash cow (Medicare Advantage) should get more attention

I've been going to the gym for 10 years.

Here are 50 things I wish I had known from the beginning:

1. A gym membership is cheaper and more effective than antidepressants.

@CNN Jim Costa, the Maga Trump followers will believe everything Trump says even if inaccurate, false, or flat out lies, including how tariffs work and the economy.

[Prison Policy Initiative @PrisonPolicy]

Politicians often use victims of crime as an excuse for harsh sentencing and punitive policies.

But the vast majority of victims of violent crime want investments in education, jobs, and healthcare - NOT prisons and jails.

@mattgaetz withdrew his nomination as Attorney General. Good riddance. As a former prosecutor and MD Ass't Attorney General, I can tell you, Gaetz did not have the qualifications to be a line prosecutor like myself, let alone the US Attorney General in charge of the entire DOJ.

Today the Illinois Supreme Court overturned Jussie Smollet 's conviction. A person cannot be charged and convicted twice for the same crime. First, Smollet received a negotiated plea agreement. Then a special prosecutor charged and convicted him for the same crime. #prosecutor

Pennsylvania- less than half of Philly, and little of the Philly suburbs are in. Be patient. Blue wall.

@DGComedy @MrMarcus260 This sadly shows who we are as a society deep down. The extreme hatred has been out in the open since 2015 to now.

[Debbie Hines @iamdebbiehines]

Yay!
