On January 10, 2022, the Knicks played the San Antonio Spurs at the Garden. It was Pride night. Richards was there, attending with a friend. An 18-page report prepared by Eversole's Threat Management Group and reviewed by WIRED shows just how closely she was being monitored. 07:10:20 // CAM 0241 // scans her ticket to section 102, Row 8, Seat 5 07:11:14 // CAM 1434 // goes up terrace escalators on level 3 to level 6 concourse 07:12:52 // CAM AC10 // hugs usher Appendix A of the report has a screenshot of the embrace, with Richards circled in red. 08:08:58 // CAM 1093 // talking with F&B worker at the Draft Kings Bar 08:10:49 // CAM 0512 // pays for the drinks 08:31:19 // CAM 0485 // eating at a table It goes on and on. At 8:48 pm, camera 0489 spots another quick hug with an MSG “membership experience executive” (there's a grainy photo in the report's Appendix N). Two minutes and two seconds later, the same camera captures her heading into the women's bathroom. Her exit is noted after precisely two minutes and five seconds.
The owner of MSG and the Knicks compiled this kind of second-by-second surveillance of a trans woman while they were in the arena. They're doing this at all venues owned by James Dolan of perceived enemies. Crazy, crazy shit.

Congratulations Tom Steyer for receiving the most highly coveted endorsement a California Democrat could hope for.
Back on Feb 18, I interviewed Jocelyn Benson, who told me Dem Secretaries of State were running table-top exercises for these types of scenarios. You can listen here: podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/t...
I am disgusted with the one Democrat who voted for Trump's war. But, I am also disgusted with every Republican who voted for it. They are ALL traitors to this country.

Chaos, scandal, and just enough absurdity to make you laugh before it makes you mad.

Kamlager-Dove: Stevie Wonder can even see how much this war is costing us. Prices have gone up, and this dude is wanting to spend $2 billion of your money every single day rather than help you. Fuck him.
With criminals this dumb, who needs the police?

Mike Johnson, Trump, and Stephen Miller all got humiliated last night when the FISA vote they tried to sneak through failed. Most Dems voted the right way but 4 did not.
Please call Reps Gottheimer, Glusenkamp-Perez, Golden & Suozzi & ask them why they’re siding with Stephen Miller over us. 😡

Update in Trump's $10 billion lawsuit against his own I.R.S., in which he seeks taxpayer-funded damages for the prior release of his tax records
Trump legal filing says he's in "discussions" with his own I.R.S. to "avoid protracted litigation"

Congrats on “opening” a strait that was open six weeks ago, and all it cost was at least 13 dead service members, thousands of dead Iranian civilians, tens of billions in taxpayer dollars, our loss in global standing, and the Iranian regime’s increase in power. Phenomenal work.
A former CIA insider, Mark Fowler, says the “peace deal” isn’t an ending—it’s just another phase of the same conflict.
