Excellent. I'll be traveling during the live talk, but I will absolutely listen later.

Why don't reporters ask follow-up questions? Half of the blame goes to the ridiculous answer, but the other half goes to the omission of obvious questions.

Where was Powell when this administration attacked others: scientists, law firms, universities, public officials critical of Trump? He was SILENT until they came for him. That's not courage.

Katie Miller post from 7:42 AM: "President Trump has repeatedly tried to end the Diversity Visa:

2017: Trump repeatedly called for ending the program, describing it as a “Chuck Schumer beauty” and pushing Congress to terminate it. 

2017–2021: Supported legislative efforts like the RAISE Act to eliminate the diversity visa lottery. This was stopped by Chuck Schumer and Democrats. 

2019: Implemented a passport requirement for lottery applicants, significantly reducing applications. This was halted by the Courts. 

2020: Suspended diversity visa processing

Then, Joe Biden flipped the switch back on."

DHS post from 12:28 PM: "President Trump has fought tooth and nail for years to kill the dangerous Diversity Visa Lottery:

2017: Trump demanded Congress end the program after an ISIS terrorist (DV lottery winner) murdered 8 in NYC truck attack. Trump ripped DV as "a Chuck Schumer beauty.”

2017–2021: Backed RAISE Act to eliminate the lottery and shift to merit-based immigration, a move that was blocked by Congressional Democrats. 

2019: POTUS Imposed passport requirement, slashing applications. A move that was blocked by an activist judge.

2020: POTUS Suspended all DV processing to protect Americans.

Then, Biden revived this security disaster, and now Americans are again dead because of it."

DHS's official X account is now copy-pasting anti-immigration posts from Stephen Miller's wife.

You can tell from the capitalization; they just added "POTUS" in front of the 2019 and 2020 bits, but didn't fix the capitalization of the sentence from Miller's post.

This is the best political news I’ve seen in a very long time — so please pass it on👇

Each state can limit Citizens United in their own state & they don’t have to wait for other states to do it.

What are "police-related deaths?" Did the police kill someone? Are they like "officer-involved shootings," where a cop shoots someone? Why the doublespeak?

Is an "officer-involved shooting" when the police kill someone? Why the funny language?

Wake up Democratic Party old guard establishment. This isn’t about New York City. This is the way the wind is blowing. Step aside for young people who this country will need over the next several decades long after you are gone. Enough with your egos and the big money interests.

Former Jan. 6 defendant Kyle Colton says Donald Trump's pardon also covers his child pornography charge because it stemmed from the J6 search warrant.

At no point in this entire article of 16 paragraphs does ABC mention that another cop killed this cop by shooting her in the back. Nor does it mention the name of the cop who killed this cop. Nor does it mention that the civilians involved never fired at them.

ABC might as well be state media.

Law enforcement officers should never cover their faces when making arrests or conceal their identities (unless they are working undercover). They work for us. We have a right to know who they are. These face coverings are frightening & unAmerican, as though they're ashamed of what they're doing.

If I ever called an explosion a "rapid unscheduled disassembly" in my work, all of my amazing editors, colleagues, and managers -- and the tech community -- would have disabled my login and withdrawn all permissions until I recovered my sanity. Who do they think they're fooling?

This (out today in B&B) was definitely that kind of project for me. 🧵
