The Justice Department will indeed need rebuilding.
But not until Trump is gone will that be possible.
And then a very large 🧹 will be needed before reconstruction begins.

What he said! Great team effort!
I am grateful to the Cold Case Unit for their devotion of hundreds of hours to the re-examination of this case at the request of the deceased’s daughter. They spared no financial expense as well. Their work was outstanding, as always.
that there is no evidence that the deceased died at the hands of another - in other words that the death was a homicide.
The deceased’s daughter provided many many theories of cause of death & identified many potential suspects, including her own aunt, but the Unit could substantiate none of them.
The latest report from our Cold Case Unit.
Ultimately, after an exhaustive review, which included exhuming the deceased, DNA testing, three autopsy reports and interviewing and re-interviewing witnesses, the Unit concluded …. 1/2

Big win for consumers!
Proud of our AG Team
Rhode Island voters are learning what I’ve known for years.
Keith’s smart. He’s tireless. He’s a fighter. He’s independent.
He’s already delivered for me and for RI’ers for years.
He’s uniquely qualified to deliver again, as AG, from day 1.
Thanks! But that’s just it. They shouldn’t be the last line of defense. Not fair to them or patients.
It doesn’t have to be this way.
Primary care is treated with disdain by our healthcare system.
And this is what we get. Especially in RI.
At first I thought I was reading the Onion again.
I wonder - do Mass. residents go to their pharmacists for healthcare decisions?
And the so-called “courageous” healthcare proposals of our present Governor - don’t hear that a lot - in the very editorial links to bills proposed by …. the Senate.
Remember that when RI Energy’s parent PPL bought National Grid 3 years ago the McKee administration left hundreds of millions of dollars on table that my Office had to sue to recover for RI’ers. And the McKee administration OPPOSED us b/4 Judge Stern.
That’s what I mean by leaving RI’ers adrift.
Prof. is spot on. Shocker that in election year McKee (who’s left RI’ers adrift on energy for years) quotes big overall number that amounts to handful of dollars on individual bill.
McKee eliminating clean energy programs instead of cracking down on gas-owned utility will harm RI’ers in long run.

This is fascinating on so many levels.
One thing that stands out is the military’s repeated concern about US “munitions depletion.”
How can a country that spends what we spend on defense not have enough munitions?
And then we go to war anyway?
It’s nuts.

Awful. Shortsighted. And awful.
It sure is.
Great conversation with Senator Whitehouse today. Grateful for his leadership.
Glad I installed heat pumps.
But this is yet another example of why we need to increase our efforts to build out wind and solar. It’s clean, it’s reliable, and its price is steady.
I intend to challenge as well.
Want to feel old?
Swear in the daughter of a former colleague who was born just before her mother and I started working together in a three person district court unit at the office in 1996!
Time flies!
I’m going to need to set aside a few hours every day for this one.
Congrats to House for passing these important bills that will bring justice to victims of the Diocese’s decades of coverup and enablement of child sexual abuse.
My Office has studied the constitutionality of these bills carefully. We are confident we can successfully defend them if challenged.
Sigh.
Government can serve the people well.
But leadership matters.
I thought Sen Acosta’s questions regarding potential motivations for the delay in issuing licenses & introducing competition to the marketplace very thought provoking.
And resulting huge financial benefit to existing players (an apparent mystery to the director) well-drawn out by Chair DiPalma.
Give Senate Finance credit for asking the right questions - and the attempted explanations in response were as illuminating as they were indefensible.
Mostly tedious.
But Health Ins. Comm. admitting he approved premium increases on RI’ers 10 times his own target is stunning.
So is new Cannabis director’s inability to explain slow walking of new license approvals FOR YEARS, protecting market share for others.

On behalf of all RI’ers, we continue to fight for the air we breathe, the water we drink, and the planet which sustains us, our children and grandchildren.
Our commitment to this fight is absolute, and will never be sacrificed on the altar of political expediency.
Words are performative. We act.
Headline says it all.
You can’t manage this, but as Attorney General you want to run the biggest law firm handling the most complex litigation in the state?
Serious questions await.

For some reason I like the Red Sox this year.
I have no idea why given the lack of right-handed power and my skepticism of the rotation beyond Crochet.
But hope springs eternal.
At least until May 1.
Note quote from Ahern’s “spokesman” (she needs a spokesman)?
Didn’t deny she wouldn’t have issued the ILO report - she’d have protected McKee.
Didn’t explain her Cannabis Commission failure to do literally anything.
Yeah she worked for me. I endorsed someone else.
Read that how you’d like.
