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.

@davidfrum Great article. My only disagreement is your statement “they have a lot to worry about” with the incoming administration.
They can literally afford to take a stand and losing their jobs or show will not bankrupt them. Most of us do not have that luxury.
And since it's being discussed on-air again today, here's link to the article I wrote about my experience yesterday on Morning Joe. I want to stress: I am very sympathetic to the predicament faced by TV hosts. These are worrying times. https://t.co/enLo3dBoOW
@OliviaTroye@MarkSZaidEsq Well, former SecDef Esper stated on CNN that Patel passed along bogus info abt a foreign nation's overflight approval for a JSOC hostage rescue op. Also stated he thought Patel just made it up and it's in Esper's book, too. Is Patel going to sue Esper, too?
@OliviaTroye@MarkSZaidEsq Let this sink in. A nominee to run the FBI is attacking a private citizen, as a private citizen himself. What do you think will happen if he gets confirmed to the nation's premiere Law enforcement agency? This isn't prudent governance.
Today, Kash Patel sent a letter to my counsel @MarkSZaidEsq- threatening legal action & demanding that I retract my comments on MSNBC about his unfitness to serve as FBI Director. This aligns with his threats against the media & political opponents, revealing how he might conduct himself if confirmed in the role. I stand by my statements—my priority remains the safety & security of the American people. I am not the only one who has expressed concerns about him. So why me? And so it begins.
Regarding this whole discussion of @JoeNBC & Mika and fear:
If, like me, you believe Trump is a fascist & a genuine threat to democracy, and if you said all that during the campaign, then when he wins, you can’t run down to Mar-a-Lago and break bread with him. You just can’t. Not if you believe what you said about him. You can’t normalize that. You can’t make nice with a fascist who just got elected. An American president who is a fascist is an enemy to this country. You must, if you believe that, continue to stand on principle and oppose him. And if that means falling ratings, or a loss of followers, or the loss of access & relevancy, or even the loss of your platform, so be it. This is a unique time, he is a unique threat, do not be afraid. Don’t let fear rule over you. That is…if you TRULY believe what you said about him during the campaign.
Thank you @davidfrum for what you said. Thank you for your piece in @TheAtlantic. Thank you for your courage.
If you ever look into Twitter /X you'll see that this morning the X Man is demanding that ACLU be defunded.
All of his following cattle are clucking their tongues in agreement.
ACLU has no government funding.
Gives you an idea of Elon's extraordinary ignorance.
As for his cows,moooo.

I monitor MAGA for a living.
All day, every day they’re talking about rounding up “leftists” (any liberal), prosecuting DOJ and FBI officials, shutting down “legacy” media and purging the government to install loyalists but don’t you dare call them fascists.
MUST WATCH: House Foreign Affairs Committee Chairman Mike McCaul — Ukraine gave up nukes in exchange for our military protection. We betrayed Ukraine when we allowed Russia to invade Crimea and Donbas in 2014. NATO betrayed Ukraine.
We must supply Ukraine everything to win.
@LateNightSeth I just want to know who is paying $40 for a 12 pack of Bounty? Someone is robbing them blind. 😂It's about half that price....
And maybe someone that thinks Bounty costs $40 shouldn't be giving us advice on the working class?
@LateNightSeth FU Brian Williams. It was because she was a woman, like Hillary. We are so misogynistic. Quit making excuses like a loaf of bread or how long she had to prepare. BTW, Trump didn't win by a large margin like MAGA are saying. Check it out.
@LateNightSeth Williams is full of shit and part of the problem. The economy is better now than it was at any time when Trump was in office. The media would put on 10 minutes of Trump supporters whining that they don’t FEEL like it is instead of reporting the facts
Price gouging is > Inflation
@LateNightSeth The Democrats care about people (all people). We are not the problem. The problem is the media normalizing Trump & the Republicans to the point of being taken care of & helping Americans became something terrible. The Democrats don’t need to change. The media needs to do better.
@LateNightSeth P.S. Brian and the entire MSM helped to normalize a criminal who attempted a coup and stole top secret documents. He has grifted billions of dollars through the office of POTUS & is conspiring with Putin.
They normalized him.
How about look in the mirror, Mr. Williams

Interesting timing, isn’t it? Musk’s “Department of Government Efficiency” rolls out a plan, and suddenly NASA’s future is on the chopping block—right as SpaceX stands to gain.
This isn’t about efficiency; it’s about funneling public resources into private pockets.
