This week someone targeted my family for harm with a false report. We’re physically OK, but that doesn’t mean we weren’t harmed. I am beyond furious. Whatever your politics, this is awful, wrong, and can never become normal.
Because there is absolutely no news to report/investigate about the current administration, let's go with another story about what Joe Biden could have done better. NYT is a clown show.
The Biden administration repeatedly rejected recommendations that could have eased the border crisis that helped return President Trump to the White House, a New York Times examination found. Former officials in his administration said that Biden and his confidants made two crucial errors.

Former UVA president Jim Ryan, who resigned over the summer due to pressure from the Trump Administration, just shared this 12-page letter with the Faculty Senate, detailing his experience with the Board of Visitors and DOJ. It's a surreal--and troubling--read. drive.google.com/file/d/1Is6x...

Tone deaf. Schumer and Jefferies out doing book tours to line their pockets? Clearly they're not getting the message.
It gets worse. Schumer isn’t just going on a book tour—he’s charging for tickets. Absolute insanity. While Americans are scared and in crisis mode, he’s basically saying, let them eat cake. @schumer.senate.gov Step Down.
This is extortion. We are living through what will become one of the most shameful eras in American history.
"During the meeting, Ukraine was told it faced imminent shutoff of the Starlink service if it did not reach a deal on critical minerals, said the source, who requested anonymity to discuss closed negotiations." Astonishing betrayal of an ally. www.reuters.com/business/us-...

More of this. The fuck are you doing promoting a book when the country is falling apart?
Happening now: protesters are outside the Fine Arts Building on Michigan Avenue in downtown Chicago this evening. People are in line to see House of Reps Minority Leader Hakeem Jeffries for an event tonight promoting his recently released book. Crowd chanting at them, "we don't need a book tour!"

This performance left the GOP flummoxed. Trump couldn’t figure an easy angle to attack it. So instead- he mean tweeted about Taylor Swift getting booed and dunked on the Chiefs for their terrible night. What an ‘honor’ for him as the ultimate fair weather fan.
