Justice Dept has not slowed down in its Jan 6 arrests

They've announced another case. Out of Florida. George Gonzalez is accused of shattering a windowpane and charging at a police line

11/ So: No, we are not publishing a story.

This is how journalism is supposed to work. Hear something. Check something. Repeat steps 1 and 2 as many times as needed.

The end.

1/ Here’s a story about how journalism works.

Spoiler Alert: This is how we decide *not* to publish.

We were recently looking at Pete Hegesth’s different statements over the years about West Point, where he has said he was admitted.

First stop: West Point.

[Jay Bookman @jaysbookman]

Forcing GOP senators to confirm Don Jr.'s castoff lover as ambassador to Greece, Ivanka's felonious father-in-law as envoy to France, a woman-hating drunk as SecDef, etc., is Trump's way of reminding them that they can keep their job or their self-respect, but not both.

[The Tennessee Holler @TheTNHoller]

Imagine if House Dems announced a 3-day retreat to pour money into Biden’s pockets.

Imagine if Tennessee Republicans announced a 3-day retreat to pour money into @GovBillLee’s pockets.

Everything is a grift.

[Volodymyr Zelenskyy / Володимир Зеленський @ZelenskyyUa]

I am deeply grateful to President Biden, the U.S. Treasury @SecYellen, and the bipartisan support of Congress for the disbursement of $20 billion under the G7 Extraordinary Revenue Acceleration for Ukraine initiative. This critical support, funded by immobilized Russian assets, will strengthen Ukraine’s defense and help protect our sovereignty and people against unprovoked aggression.

This decision is a powerful act of justice. By utilizing Russia’s assets to support Ukraine, the G7 is holding the aggressor accountable. This sends a clear and resolute message: Russia must pay for its brutal war, Putin’s regime must face the consequences of its violations of international law, war crimes, and assault on democracy.

Supporting Ukraine is not only about standing with one nation; it’s about ensuring security in Europe and delivering a powerful lesson to any would-be aggressor: accountability for acts of war is inevitable.

[Darth Putin @DarthPutinKGB]

Can't be anyone else in history who says he is at war with an organisation in one country (🇺🇦) while also asking the same organisation for help to safely retreat from another (🇸🇾).

I remain a master strategist.

This Syrian woman has something to say and I recommend listening.

Too many people point to the uncertainties after Assad‘s fall, and we cannot entirely blank them out, but unlike under Assad, Syria has now a chance to heal and thrive as one country and as one nation. This chance outweighs the doubts.

[Chris Murphy 🟧 @ChrisMurphyCT]

I want to talk to you about Trump's post today that he's going to cancel regulations for projects funded by billionaires. Once again, Trump is TELLING US that he's only interested in helping the wealthy and powerful. We should pay attention.

[Sheldon Whitehouse @SenWhitehouse]

Entitled billionaires are cranking up an “in-your-face oligarchy.” Seems you’re never too rich to steal, so families, watch your wallets as they come looting and polluting.

This is not how things should function in a healthy democracy.

[Rep. Eric Swalwell @RepSwalwell]

In 2017, I investigated Trump and his DOJ went after my cell phone and email records. They found nothing. Trump without guardrails will be worse. That’s not going to stop me. And I don’t want it to stop you.

[BrooklynDad_Defiant!☮️ @mmpadellan]

Good morning and Happy Tuesday to everyone who wishes the media would grow a spine and learn to interview lying piece of shit properly the way Barbara Walters did fearlessly back in the day.

Stop sanewashing his crazy bullshit.

Rep Zoe Lofgren (D-CA), a former member of House Jan 6 Select Cmte, tells MSNBC:

“It’s important for members of the committee to let him know: We will not be intimidated”

So Trump is going to allow foreign companies to bypass regulations giving them a competitive advantage if they invest a billion dollars in starting a business in US, but a smaller American business or startup trying to compete with that foreign business has to comply with them?

JUST IN: A federal judge has dismissed Michael FLYNN's long-running lawsuit against the government for malicious prosecution, saying he failed to state a claim. https://t.co/ESljJ65b2P

“Affairs. Addiction. Secrets. Conspiracies. Compulsions. From Trump’s point of view, a cabinet composed of people with such baggage is a cabinet that will remain loyal to him. But from the point of view of America’s enemies this is like Christmas morning.” https://t.co/Sej6Wk4VUW
